Harry swiftly buttoned up Cedric's shirt and smiled proudly at his handwork, looping the tie around his neck, Harry knotted the tie and quickly fixed his hair. "Anything else?" Harry asked Cedric looked down at his feet and blushed a deep red "Oh, um my shoelaces I can't tie them." Harry sat down next to Cedric and tied his shoelaces. Cedric watched the way Harry tied his shoelaces with ease, he wanted things to be cool between them and hopefully learn how to love each other again, so now it was time to break the ice.
"Harry, I'm so sorry if I hurt you yesterday." He spoke.
Harry looked up from Cedric's shoes and replied, "it's fine, I'm used to it." And switched to his other foot , reaching over Cedric placed his hand on top of Harry's " but it's not okay, you shouldn't have to be used of cruel words that spill from other people's lips especially mine."
"we're both idiots." Harry joked.
"So, are we cool?"
Harry nodded and continued to tie Cedric's shoelaces, after tying the final knot Cedric swinged both his legs off the bed and punched his fists together "Right, let's go find the bastard and give him hell."
30 minutes later…
Draco was all healed up in no time because he had drunk the whole bottle of the disgusting skeleton growth potion that the nurse gave him, walking in confidence he gathered his friends and told them to spread the photos everywhere at the school. His friend Pansy snickered at the photo "oh, god those poor Mudblood."
Goyel rushed over to Draco out of the blue with a red face and sweat dripping down his face, he tapped Draco on the shoulder "What is it now?" he snapped Goyel whispered in Draco's ear that Cedric and Harry were seen together and that they were coming here this very second. Draco's eyes widened in shock and by the time he turned his back there were Diggory and Potter hobbling towards him. Potter held Diggory up by the waist to prevent him from falling, feeling a pang of pure rage and jealously in the pit of his stomach. He clenched his fists and hid the pain "The whole school knows now, so there's no point in hiding it now." He laughed meanly.
"We're not hiding anything; we came here because it's time to get your arse whooped again Malfoy."
"Is that so? The last time I recalled I was the one who whooped your friend's arse." Draco sneered. Harry blushed and didn't dare to look up Cedric looked at harry and asked, "Is that true?". Harry could no longer hide his shame "it's true."
Cedric straightened his back and growled at Harry "let go."
"Why?"
"I said Fucking let go!" Cedric snarled.
Harry let go of Cedric and backed away and hid behind a tree, he couldn't bear to see Cedric get hurt again. "I'm going to really hurt you properly this time. You pissed me off Malfoy and now it's just you and me, come here and let's go." He raised his fists, preparing for the fight ahead of him Draco waltzed right up to Cedric Goyel right behind him. Draco raised his hand, stopping him from moving any further "Back off, Diggory is mine."
In the blink of an eye Cedric had Malfoy pinned to the dirt on his stomach. Draco tried to squirm free from Cedric's rough hands, but it was no use, Cedric was too strong for him even with broken ribs. Cedric held Draco firmly in place and yanked him up by the hair, calling Harry over to the fight he harshly whispered in Draco's ear "You hurt the one I used to love, and now I hurt you. Fuck I might even kill you in your sleep and bury your body where no one will never look."
"Over my dead body, Mudblood." Draco snapped.
"I want to you to say sorry to Harry, or else."
"Or else what?" Draco shot back.
Cedric looked over his shoulder and saw Harry quivering in fear "Which hand did he use?" he asked over his shoulder.
"Cedric-"
"Tell me which hand he used now!" He shouted.
Harry gulped down his fear and walked over to Cedric and Draco, kneeling next to them he pointed at the hand Draco used to fist him. 'That one, he used that one to fist me." He pointed at Draco's right hand. Cedric studied Harry carefully and he wished that he told him all the story "you didn't tell me that part. Right then Malfoy looks like your hand is going to be history unless you apologize." Cedric warned.
"Over my dead body." Draco growled.
"I can happily arrange that." Cedric smirked he started to bend back Draco; s fingers until they heard a loud cracking sound. Draco yelped as he felt the bones in his fingers crack louder, trying to wriggle out the strong vice grip that his enemy had his hand in. He fought back tears and chewed his lip until he drew blood "Stop, Stop!" Draco begged. "I take back about what I said about the apology."
Cedric bent Draco's hand back further until he heard another bone breaking snap "You maniac! wait until my father hears about this." He hissed. Cedric got off Draco and roughly shoved him into the tree "Go, ahead, see if I care. I'm not scared of your father you waste of space." He snarled, before he left Cedric kicked Draco in the stomach Draco doubled over and puked. The crowd backed away, disgusted and horrified at the sight of Draco puking up his guts.
Harry helped Cedric Walk back to the hospital wing and sat him down on the bed. "Take it easy, or you'll hurt yourself." Harry sighed as he got a book out of his bag and started to read. "Harry, why didn't you tell me about Draco fisting you?"
Harry winced at Cedric's choice of words and put the book down "I was ashamed, and I was afraid that you wouldn't love me anymore if I told you." Cedric placed his hand on Harry's warm one "now, everyone knows we're fucked. And I don't mean it in a good way." He grumbled. Harry changed the subject "you kept the polaroid, why?"
"Because I miss you, and you mean a lot to me. You're my whole world, I can't see myself living in someone else's world. I only want you." Cedric lightly banged his head on the wall. "Would you ever want to love me again?" Harry asked shyly. Cedric rubbed his forehead and replied without hesitation "Yes, I would take you back in a heartbeat. But right now, I don't want know what to feel."
"it's okay I understand completely, I'm not sure if I could love someone again." Harry said
"What's supposed to mean?"
"Nothing, I just feel lost."
