Stepping into a relationship with Cedric Diggory is like walking into a warm sunbeam on a crisp morning.

Tall and athletic, Cedric’s broad shoulders and powerful frame are balanced by his genuine smile and sparkling grey eyes, which seem to hold a kindness that goes deeper than mere words. While his reputation as Hufflepuff’s star Seeker and Quidditch captain precedes him. He’s the kind of man who cheers for others’ victories as much as his own, who stands up for what’s right, and who holds himself to the highest standards of honesty and fairness.

It’s a cool, crisp evening at Hogwarts, and the sun is just beginning to dip below the horizon, painting the sky in streaks of orange and pink. Cedric had asked you to meet him by the Black Lake after dinner—a rare moment of quiet in your otherwise bustling days at school.

When you arrive, he’s already there, leaning casually against a tree, his hands in the pockets of his robes. The fading sunlight catches his dark hair and the sharp angles of his face, making him look effortlessly handsome. His grey eyes light up when he sees you, and that warm, easy smile that always makes your heart flutter spreads across his face.

“You made it,” he says, straightening up and stepping toward you.

“Of course,” you reply, teasing. “Did you think I’d stand up the great Cedric Diggory?”

He chuckles softly, his laugh low and rich. “I wouldn’t blame you. I’m sure you’re tired of hearing how good I am at catching a Snitch.”

You roll your eyes playfully. “Maybe, but you’re much better at stealing hearts.”

His cheeks flush ever so slightly, and you can’t help but feel a rush of pride at catching him off guard. “Come on,” he says, recovering quickly. He reaches for your hand, his touch warm and steady. “I thought we could sit for a while. There’s something peaceful about this place.”
