A few days later, Cedric had gotten a summer intern job with Cho Chang. Rose actually went with him to the office almost everyday to make sure that he was being faithful.

She knew it was ridiculous...he loved her and she loved him back just as much. She should learn to trust him more. "Rose? Are you coming?" Cedric asked, walking into their bedroom from the bathroom.

"Sure," she said, standing up and walking over to him. "You don't mind, do you?"

"Of course not," Cedric said, smiling and kissing her forehead as they walked to the fireplace. Rose found that she liked flooing ALOT better than apparating.

As they walked into his and Cho's cubicle, Cho waved happily at them. "Hi, Cedric, Rose!" she exclaimed. Rose wanted to gag.

"I'm going to go to the bathroom, be back in a second," Rose said, setting down her new Fendi clutch, the one her father had gotten her as a early birthday present. Once in the bathroom she surveyed herself and knew she didn't have anything to worry about. She looked 100 percent better than that Ravenclaw ho. She was wearing a Donna Karan sky blue top and a jean mini skirt, pairing them with her favorite pair of black Miu Miu's. The only thing Cho held over her was the fact that she was older...nearer to Cedric's age.

But age shouldn't matter to him...it didn't when they were in school. Or maybe now he wanted someone more mature. Rose sighed, checking herself one last time before heading out of the bathroom.

She walked by the cafeteria on her way back, deciding she wanted something to drink...maybe coffee. Several people were glancing her way, probably wondering what she was doing there, I mean she may have looked older than she was, but she was still only 14, 15 in September.

She got her coffee and headed back to the cubicle. "Oh, my god!" she cried, dropping her coffee on the ground. The cup shattered into a million pieces as Rose looked on, horrified. Cho was on top of Cedric, kissing him fiercely and working at the buttons on his shirt, Cedric's hands slowly rising up Cho's shirt. When they heard her, Cedric looked up, his eyes wide, before he pushed Cho off of him as Rose ran from the room.

"ROSE!" WAIT!" he was screaming after her.

Rose ran away blindly, as fast as she could go in her tiny heels. Her worst fear had turned into reality. Cedric was cheating on her! She sobbed and ran into the elevator right as it was about to shut, slumping against the ground as it finally closed. "Rose?" Harry asked incredulously from where he stood in the elevator.

"Oh my god, Harry!" she exclaimed, looking up at him. "W-What are you d-doing here?"

"I'm getting tried for under-age magic...but never mind, what happened to you?" he asked, helping her up.

The door opened as they reached the next floor down and a flood of wizards came into the elevator. "Never mind me...I just found out some information about my...mother," Rose lied, glad that there was so much commotion in the elevator, that way Harry couldn't sense she was lying.

"Oh, ok...are you gonna be all right?" he asked. "This is our floor, Harry," came Mr. Weasley's voice. Rose nodded. "Yeah, I'll be fine...good luck today," she said, trying to hold back tears.

Harry and Mr. Weasley left the elevator along with the rest of the people inside it and Rose slumped back down against the wall, banging her head miserably against the side.

Finally, the door opened to the lobby and she immediately ran over to the fireplace to floo to the Diggory's. She found that Cedric was already there.

He ran over to her and tried to hold her, but she fought away. He wouldn't let go though and eventually she sagged in his arms, bawling her eyes out.

"Let go of me!" she sobbed. "I hate you! I hate you!" He tried to talk to her but she wouldn't listen. "I HATE YOU!" she screamed, pushing him away from her. "Why?" she asked, still crying. "WHY?"

Cedric sighed and sat down on the edge of the sofa, running a hand slowly through his hair as he often did when he was frustrated or didn't know what to do.

"She...just started kissing me," he mumbled and Rose sobbed even more.

"That's bull shit!" she screamed at him.

"She was all over you, and you didn't look like you were protesting very much! What is it? Am I not good enough? Am I a bad lover? Am I not exciting enough?" Rose demanded.

"No!" he exclaimed, standing up.

"Then what is it?" she shouted at him. "Am I too young? Am I just a...a fling that meant nothing?"

"I TRUSTED you Cedric! I had suspicions but I held them back because I knew...thought you loved me...I tried to trust that you loved me enough to stay faithful but I guess love wasn't enough," Rose sobbed, her words running together as she bawled.

He tried holding her again but she back away. "DON'T TOUCH ME!" she exclaimed.

"Rose...I'm sorry," he told her, his eyes pleading with her to forgive him. "I love you...please believe me."

"How can I? You don't tell someone you love them after they've just caught you practically getting undressed by another female!" Rose exclaimed, taking this opportunity to run upstairs.

She packed up all her things and tried to run back down the stairs but Cedric was in the doorway and blocked her. "Let go of me!" she exclaimed.

"No Rose, not until we talk this through and you calm down," Cedric said, not budging an inch.

"I don't want to talk this through! I don't want to calm down! I want to get out of here! AWAY FROM YOU!" she shouted, trying to get through.

"We're over Cedric! I can't stay in a relationship where I can't even trust the other person in it! I just can't! I'll never trust you again! You broke my heart Cedric Diggory, and I don't know if it will ever heal again," Rose said brokenly.

At these words, Cedric froze. He moved away so that she could pass him and saw her leave. After a while, he fell to the ground and buried his face in his hands, silently crying.

Rose walked quickly down the steps and eventually came to the fireplace, flooing herself to the Weasley's house...the only place she knew she could go right now besides home.

When she got there, the place was completely empty. She just sat down at the table and started to cry.

A couple of minutes later she felt a hand on her shoulder and looked up to see an alarmed Harry.

"Rose, what's wrong?" he asked, concern showing in his eyes. She just looked at him, tears silently flowing from her eyes.

Everyone else started to enter the house and Rose wiped her eyes standing up. "I'm sorry for intruding Mr. and Mrs. Weasley," she apologized.

"It's no trouble," Mrs. Weasley sad, patting her on the trouble. "Why don't you go upstairs with Ginny and get settled him." Mrs. Weasley didn't seem to notice that Rose had been crying.

Rose smiled and Ginny put a hand on her shoulder, leading her upstairs, she had obviously realized that Rose was in a miserable state.

Once they were upstairs, Rose immediately started to cry again. "I trusted him!" she sobbed.

"Oh Rose," Ginny sighed, hugging her friend. Harry appeared at the door and Ginny looked up, shrugging.

"I found Cedric...and Cho...kissing," she choked out. "And Cho was...undressing him."

"I...I broke up with him Harry...I can't trust him anymore..." Rose sobbed into a pillow she had grabbed to hold onto, "When will it stop hurting Harry? When will the pain go away?"

He sat down next to her and took her in his arms. "It'll be ok," he said soothingly.

"But how do you know that Harry, I feel so useless right now! I feel like I'm not good enough for anyone anymore," Rose sobbed, her body aching from crying so much.

Harry wanted to take her in his arms and make everything all right again. He wanted to show her how much he loved her.

He held her a little tighter and let her sob into his chest, slowly running his hands soothingly down her back until at last she stopped crying.

"I'm sorry," she mumbled. "I just...I just can't believe he would hurt me like that."

"Bastard," Harry muttered under his breath and he held Rose.

"Harry...why is the real reason you tried to save me in the 2nd task?" Rose asked quietly after a minute.

"What? I told you, Cedric wasn't around and--" She looked into his eyes and said, "No...no that's not it...why, Harry?"

Harry didn't answer, he merely stared into her eyes, into the eyes of this beautiful girl with the broken smile...the girl who was the most beautiful girl he had ever seen even now as she was crying.

Suddenly, she kissed him, softly at first, but the passion started to grow.

She knew it was wrong to be kissing him this soon after Cedric had broken her heart...she was technically on the rebound...but Harry had always been there for her. He had always been her friend...and knowing he cared for her more than that made her feel a little better if anything.

She pulled Harry's shirt over his head and threw it to the floor. All thoughts of Cedric and how he hurt her slowly started to vanish.

Harry slowly kissed her and began to remove her top as they started to lie back on the bed. He knew he shouldn't be doing this...she was vulnerable right now...but it felt so right.

His jeans were gone and Rose blushed severely when she felt his erection pressing at her thigh. He unhooked her bra and it joined her top on the floor.

She felt awkward at first but then she slowly got used to being exposed around Harry and she leaned up, kissing him passionately as her hands made their way to his boxers, toying at the hem slowly before pulling them down.

He reached for her skirt and slowly slid it down her legs, soon throwing it to the floor.

Her panties soon joined her skirt on the floor and Rose blushed wildly as she saw Harry's eyes scanning her, his face just as flushed as her. "You sure about this Cherry?" he whispered, his face hovering just above hers, staring into her blue eyes with his magnificent green ones.

She nodded. "Yes, Harry," she whimpered.

Harry was nervous as he gazed into her eyes, kissing her softly. He had never done this before after all. Rose sensed the nervousness in his eyes and smiled helping him as he finally discovered what pure bliss was.

"I love you, Cherry," Harry whispered in her ear, stroking her damp hair softly. "I always have."

Rose smiled serenely and kissed him on the lips as they lay close to each other on the twin bed. "You know what? I think I knew all along," she whispered, closing her eyes as sleep threatened to take over her body.

He stared at her sleeping form and smiled. Not even his wildest dreams could foresee this moment when she was all his.

He smiled and removed his glasses, placing them on the bed stand and pulling Rose closer to him as he fell asleep as well.

About an hour later, Rose opened her eyes and saw Harry sleeping next to her. She was confused at first but then started to remember what had happened between her and Cedric earlier.

She forced herself not to cry and she slowly got up and out of Harry's embrace, dressing slowly. She would have to get back home soon...she couldn't impose on the Weasley's like this.

"Rose?" came Harry's voice from behind her as she slipped her skirt on.

"Hey, Harry," she said, smiling.

"Where are you going?" he asked her, propping himself up on his elbows and grabbing for his boxers.

"Well...I really should get home...the Diggory's have probably already told Daddy I left," she explained, walking over to the bed and sitting down.

"He'll be worried," Harry finished for her. Rose nodded and leaned down, kissing Harry gently before grabbing her bag from the floor and walking to the fireplace that was in the room.

"Bye, Harry," she said before stepping into the fireplace and going home.
