I don't own any recognisable situations and/or characters :]
Sorry I've not written in so long, I had bad writers block for this story!


It was nearly the end of summer and Cedric and Hermione had met up quite a lot. There were 8 days until they had to go back to school, Cedric for his 7th year and Hermione for her 5th. Important years for them both, Hermione was taking her OWLs this year and Cedric would be taking his NEWTs. Normally Hermione would worry about trying to maintain a relationship whilst trying to revise and study for her exams, but Cedric would be studying too so he would understand. Maybe they could study together in the library?

Hermione sighed, Harry and Ron still hadn't spoken to her. She didn't understand what she had done so wrong. How was she to know that Harry would suffer so badly? Yes she knew that someone had put his name into the goblet but they didn't suspect it was on Voldermort's orders. Besides, Ron was there when he got back. It wasn't like there was no one there. "Why am I even making excuses?" Hermione asked herself.

"Uh, Hermione... Your mum and I are getting ready to leave now. Are you sure you'll be okay?"

"Dad, I'll be fine honestly!" Hermione said, snapping out of her musings. "I'm not a child, plus I've got magic on my side"

Hermione's father chuckled and shook his head, he turned and went back downstairs as Hermione followed him. The Grangers were going to a dentistry convention in the north of England and were leaving Hermione at home. The convention was going to be 4 days long, but the Grangers wouldn't be back for five days because they would miss the last train. Hermione thought she heard a faint crack from above her, but shrugged it off as her parents taxi arrived to take them to the train station. Hermione hugged her parents and helped them put their luggage in the boot of the taxi. She waved them off and closed the door before turning and leaning on it.

Deciding that it was too late to go back to bed but too early to be up without any assitance Hermione made her way to the kitchen and clicked on the kettle. After making herself a cup of coffee she heard the post dropping through the letterbox, after checking there was nothing for her she put the letters in her parents office and made her way up to her bedroom.

"For God's sake Granger, how long does it take to get upstairs?"

Hermione yelped and dropped her coffee, drawing her wand and pointing it at the origin of the voice. Cedric Diggory was sitting on her bed, as bold as brass, smirking at her. Hermione lowered her wands and looked to her feet where there lay a smashed mug and very wet carpet. She sighed and stepped over it.

"Bloody Hell Diggory! What do you think you're doing?"

"Scaring you half to death apparently!"

Hermione glared at him and sat on the other end of her bed. Cedric frowned and pulled his wand out. He pointed it at the wet patch and dried it instantly, before pointing it at the fragments of the coffeer cup and repaired it. He looked at Hermione who was sitting with her arms crossed, staring at the floor. He moved closer to her and stroked her back only to feel her tense under his fingers. Frowning again, but determined he moved behind her slightly and dipped his head to kiss the back of her neck, which was exposed thanks to the band that was holding her hair up. He placed his hands on her waist and moved one leg so that she was sitting in between his legs.

Although he could not see it, his kisses were having a big effect on Hermione. Her mouth was slack and her eyes were almost shut as Cedric had apparently found a sensitive spot. Hermione's heart was pounding and she was no longer sure if it was the adrenaline from the shock or if it went with the knot that was building in her stomach, and the heat that was accumulating between her legs. Cedric grinned when he heard a soft sigh from the witch infront of him.

"Am I forgiven?" He murmured in her ear, causing Hermione to shiver as she felt his breath. A soft moan was his only answer and he smirked as Hermione turned and pushed him down on her bed. Cedric licked his lips as he lay on his back, looking up at the gorgeous witch who was straddling his hips. Her hair was mussed, and she was wearing soft cotton pajamas and he noticed with delight that her chest was rising and falling rapidly.

He ran his hands up her front and let them rest on her hips. His thumbs slipped underneath her cami and stroked the skin there. Hermione lent down and placed her hands just above his shoulders, bending at the elbows she kissed him lightly pulling away when he tried to deepen the kiss. She smirked as well as any Malfoy as she sat back up. She licked her lips and smiled as he glared at her.

Hermione leant back down and kissed him again, moving away before he had time to respond she let her lips trail accross his jaw before she kissed his neck lightly moving slowly down towards his collarbone. She undid the buttons on his light blue shirt and followed her hands with her lips, as she kissed a line down the middle of his torso.

Cedric was having trouble keeping his composure, he wasn't used to having all this attention and he could barely keep from squirming. He never thought that Hermione would be so confident in the bedroom, she had blushed when he had told her she looked ravishing on their only proper "date". Cedric felt her fingers brush against the low waistband of his trousers and groaned as her lips followed soon after. Her lips left his skin and he felt her weight settle against his legs. He lifted his head and looked down to see her smiling up at him.

He glared playfully and she giggled before moving back up his body and straddling his hips again. After feeling those lips trailing a burning line down his body he wants to feel them against his. He sat up and pulled Hermione against him before kissing her. He pushed his tongue between her lips and heard her moan lightly. As much as he wanted to stay in that position, Cedric's stomach muscles were protesting. So instead, he lay back down and pulled her with him. Again her hands were placed either side of his head to support herself as his hands slipped under the back of her camisole.

Hermione had forgotten her anger and fright almost as soon as Cedric's lips had touched her neck, but if there had been any anger left it was definately gone now. She felt his slightly caloused fingers stroke her back and thought how much she liked the feel of his slightly rough skin against the smooth skin of her lower back.

Hermione had no idea why she had reacted the way she had, she was normally quite a shy person when it came to sexual situations, even when it came to kissing. Cedric seemed to bring out something that usually lay dormant inside of her. She felt sexy with Cedric, not good looking, or pretty, but sexy. And she loved it.

She smiled against Cedric's lips as she felt him lifting her cami top up, she leant up slightly and let him pull it off over her head. She heard Cedric groan and mutter something about not wearing a bra. Hermione smiled and raised one eyebrow as he stared at her breasts unashamedly.

Cedric licked his lips before leaning up and taking one of her nipples into his mouth greedily and flicked his tongue over it, he massaged her other breast with the hand that wasn't hold him up and rolled her nipple between his forefinger and thumb. He was happy to hear her moan almost immediately, he glanced up at her as he felt her fingers thread through his hair and hold his head where it was. It turned him on to no end to see her with her head back slightly, her mouth open and her eyes almost closed.

Each of them was so distracted by the other that they didn't noticed a certain ginger cat slink in through the door. Nor did they notice when he jumped nimbly onto the bed. They did however notice when he decided to nestle into the small gap that was between their bodies. Cedric pulled back as he felt the furry ball move against his bare skin. Hermione's eyes snapped open and she gasped as she too felt Crookshanks' fur against her stomach. Her eyes travelled to Cedric's and she saw him glaring at the cat resentfully and she couldn't keep it it. She burst out laughing.

Cedric looked up at her quizically and smiled slightly seeing her face light up as she laughed. He pushed Crookshanks off his lap and lay back on Hermione's bed. She calmed down but was still chuckling slightly when she moved to lie next to him. She lay on her side with one arm over his stomach, using his arm as a pillow as his hand slowly stroked her back.

"I need a shower."

"Come on Granger, lie with me for a while..."

"I just have, now I need a shower"

"Are you saying you need a shower because you've been lying with me?"

"I didn't mean that! You know I didn't!"

Hermione huffed as Cedric laughed and knelt up on her bed, she straddled Cedric and the laughter died in his throat and he licked his lips. She leant down, brushing her breasts against Cedric's chest as she placed a small kiss against his lips before murmuring "You wish". She stood up and moved accross her room to pick up a towel. She smirked as she heard Cedric's frustrated growl and sashayed out of the room.
