[HP] In love with a Cedric

Cedric still can't believe it until now, but now he is actually standing under the stairs, waiting for Lin An.

It's like going back to the time before Christmas when I was a child, I couldn't sleep all night, and I was full of anticipation.

On the winding stairs, came the sound of light footsteps.

Against the backdrop of the candlelight, Lin An, who was wearing a dark blue tunic, seemed to be covered with a warm yellow halo on his face.

Her satin-like long hair was neatly combed behind her ears, and golden decorations circled her smooth forehead like a crown.

"You are really beautiful today." He seemed to see the reflection of Narcissus when he was looking at himself in pity. It was as if in a dream, and like the moon in the water. A slight touch would dissipate it.

She took Cedric's hand affectionately, and looked at his indigo bow tie with joy: "Am I so beautiful?"

"Yes."

Hufflepuff's honesty, at this moment, is extremely appropriate and flattering.

Potter invited Cho Chang—he looked so happy that he was about to explode into fireworks.

In view of the current good mood, Lin An even gave Qiu Zhang a rare good look, and sincerely praised: "Very beautiful dress, Zhang."

Cedric held out his hand to her and made an inviting gesture: "Will you dance with me, beautiful lady."

His smooth brown hair was brushed back even more neatly than usual, and his dress robes fitted him snugly.Lin An was hardly willing to look away, chuckled lightly, and put his hands up:

"Yes, I would like to."

All in the audience, waiting for the Weird Sisters to hit the music, their eyes were on the four pairs on stage - a perfect fit.

An Lin seemed to appear out of thin air.

They didn't know why, and felt some disobedience, but in an instant they felt that this idea was ridiculous.

Isn't Lin the perfect match for Digory?Who else but her?

Cedric put his trembling arms around Lin An's waist, and from the corner of his eye, the other three pairs were also getting ready one after another.

The eight of them are going to dance the first dance of the day.

Even without the huge skirts of medieval Muggles, the girls' dress robes are beautiful enough.

The phoenix embroidered with gold thread on the hem of Lin An’s skirt hovers as if about to fly under the swing of the blue silk—occasionally, the girls’ skirts touch and leave, like colorful butterflies Trembling kisses.

This is the first time Cedric and Lin An have danced together, but they are familiar with each other as if they have practiced a thousand times or ten thousand times.

The meeting of eyes, the strength of every handshake, and even the time when Lin An retracted his hands when he lowered his waist, were all so just right and so comfortable.

Other students gradually joined in.

As the accompaniment speeds up, Durmstrang's heavy fur cloak also has a chance to be lifted, giving off the cool air of snowflakes.

Such a close distance and the continuously heating up atmosphere are far more ambiguous than a kiss.

Cedric easily completed a lift, and when Lin An landed, the front end of his high-heeled shoes accidentally stepped on him.

"I'm sorry." Her face was filled with beautiful pink in vain, but her eyes, which had been drooped because of this small mistake, were lifted up cautiously, observing Cedric's face with embarrassment.

He still smiled dotingly: "I was worried that you sprained your ankle, how could you step on me and hurt me?"

Glitter powder fell on the two of them, and a few flakes were mischievously dotted on Lin An's eyelashes.Her bright eyes wrapped around Cedric's heart like weeds, itching, as if the velvet was rubbing against his heart.

"follow me!"

His emotions have reached the extreme, and under the previous small amount of alcohol and the kisses of the students around him, it feels like a lion is charging in his heart.

Lin An's hand was held tighter than ever - he rarely pulled others recklessly like this, and even made her fear that her bones would be broken.

Really, harmful alcohol, she sighed with a headache.

The body ran honestly, and tried to follow him even in high heels.

However, even under such an impulse, he still opened a way for her with his generous and tall body.

Lin An was considered tall among girls. After wearing high heels, she was already [-] feet tall.Only with Cedric behind her can she feel absolutely safe.

There is really nothing to do with him.

Cedric abandoned his usual absolute tenderness and consideration, and ran like a big boy, dragging his beloved girl along.

The blood is boiling hot, and the ice and snow outside the auditorium is extremely cold.

For some reason, Lin An felt that the few cups of butterbeer in her body were also starting to play a role, burning her heart like a big fireball, and her whole body was strangely warm.

It seemed like some crazy emotions were starting to build up, but she was on the run, not trying to push them down.

The satin high-heeled shoes can't block the cold, on the contrary, they still get in the way.Lin An took them off incessantly, held them in his hands and continued to run.

Cedric turned his head to look at her occasionally, his handsome face was flushed by the cold air - his nose was funny like Santa's reindeer, and the sweat was transpiring, turned into a mist covering his face by the cold air of England.

The snow was trampled and crunched, and the brightly lit auditorium and the new music of the Weird Sisters were far behind them.Gradually, only the panting of the two of them and the sound of snow resounded in the quiet world.

"Xiao An—"

He stopped, his big hands lost their warmth, and they were coldly pressed against the side of her face, holding that small head.

The blush on the snow-white face dyed the cold eyebrows shy and delicate.Her face seemed to be full of expectation, she slightly opened her mouth dyed bright red, and whispered: "Sed..."

Cedric's face gradually enlarged, and the light brown eyelashes fluttered like feathers over his heart.

"I love you."

He said.

His breath is the peculiar slightly intoxicated of wine, mixed with the fragrance of mint.

Lin An was a little shorter than when she was dancing, but she stood on tiptoe and wrapped her arms around his neck.

Forehead against forehead, numbness ignited at the contact place——

"I've always loved you too, Cedric."

His body trembled, and his hands rubbed Lin An's cheek with nostalgia, over and over again.

Kissing is a natural thing, something that is about to happen.

But the stinging pain from the toes made Lin An stagger in pain, and fell into Cedric's embrace that was pressed in time - they looked at the bare feet that were red from the cold at the same time.

"I'm sorry—" Lin An apologized subconsciously, and bit her lower lip in self-blame.

Cedric didn't respond.

He picked up Lin An horizontally and placed him on the flower bed where there was no snow falling.

"Why didn't you tell me?" Cedric knelt down, touched her ankles with warmer hands, and slowly moved down to hold the cold, snow-covered feet.

"I didn't feel it at all at first." Lin An held his head, looked down at his caring boyfriend and said, "I don't want to ruin our first such a beautiful date."

It was beautiful like a dream, how could she bear to interrupt it.

He lit a small fire with his wand, dried his hands first, and then continued to hold Lin An's feet with it: "We will have countless dates like this, Xiao An."

Her wet feet just stepped on his dress robe, and he didn't care about it at all, and even moved it to make it more comfortable for her.

What a perfect man at home——Lin An thought, as warm as a bonfire.

The snow was still falling, small, falling on the ground like icing.

Cedric took out a small box, squatted in front of Lin An, and slowly opened it.

"Tell me this is not a marriage proposal, Cedric." Lin An looked at the twinkling dots under the velvet wrapping, and put on a serious face.

Cedric laughed easily, and pulled out the flashing chain with his right hand——

A sapphire necklace.

The small sapphire is wrapped in gold and hung on a gold chain of the same texture, shining enough to illuminate the entire night sky.

He looked at Lin An with his hands covering his face with satisfaction, and the voice of surprise could not be concealed even so: "Merlin! Where did you get this, Seid, my God..."

The necklace was held in Cedric's hands, and he smiled and said, "This is my mother's, you know our whole family likes you very much..." He had a shy look on his face:

"So as soon as you accepted my invitation, I wrote to Mom and Dad.

"They're as happy as I am, especially Mom. You know, she almost treats you like a second child."

At this moment, Lin An's heart was beating like it was about to pop out, and she was extremely looking forward to what Cedric would say next.

"So Mum sent me her favorite necklace, which she got from her and Dad's anniversary, and she asked me to wear it for you on prom day."

When Cedric stood up holding the necklace, Lin An felt that his violent heartbeat could be heard clearly by him.

The cold touch of metal landed on her collarbone and neck.

It slid down a little bit like water, was pulled back by Cedric, and was buckled solemnly.

Lin An's hand trembled with joy as he touched this small ornament.

"You see how well mother knows you. She seems to have expected you to wear blue clothes and no necklaces." Cedric said, sitting next to her.

The depth of the sapphire is like the representative color of Ravenclaw, and it is like the sky of the deep seabed.

But the sadness in Lin An's heart persisted, entwining her and not letting go.

"What if we break up?" Her dark eyes were clouded, and she could hardly look him directly. "I'm afraid, Cedric, I'm afraid."

"Hey! Listen to me!" Cedric squatted back in front of her and wiped her tears with his hand: "No, trust me."

"As long as I live, as long as I am Cedric Diggory, I will be your boyfriend—or husband."

He cupped Lin An's hand and kissed it, his breath warm.Do your best to appease his coward.

Lin An still held the sapphire necklace tightly, drawing strength from the love between Cedric and the Diggory family.

The midnight bell rang from a distance, Cedric squatted down with his back to her, Lin An naturally wrapped his arms around his neck, and got on the "Diggory Express" with his high heels.

While the bell was ringing, they continued to step on the snow, clinging to each other, and returned to the warm castle.

Lin An fell asleep on his back, and Cedric continued to walk her up the Ravenclaw tower patiently.

The road was long, and Ravenclaw students walked past them, some smiling and others whispering.

Cedric ignored it, he just wanted the road to be longer, or in other words, the longer the better.

It was the first time he walked straight up to the tower like a Ravenclaw, as if walking into moonlight.

The sound of long breathing, the slightly itchy stroking of long hair, the smell of blooming daffodils.

"Sed..." came her whisper, as sticky and sweet as honey.

"Ok?"

"Are you here? I fell asleep..." Lin An rubbed his eyes: "Did you send me to the door of the lounge?"

Cedric put Lin An down gently, straightened her body, and then squatted down to help her put on her shoes: "I should go back to Xiao An. There is no shortcut from the tower to the underground."

"I'll watch you go." Lin An stood in front of the eagle door knocker, and hugged Cedric as farewell, "Good night."

"Good night." He walked down a few steps and waved to Lin An.

The moon shines brightly and tenderly on the lovers.

It wasn't until Cedric completely disappeared around the corner that Lin An turned back and knocked on the bronze door knocker with the eagle head, accepting daily questions:

"I can be blind, I can be powerful, I can be difficult, deep, complex and tender at the same time - whatever I am.

(Icanbeblind, Icanbepowerful, Icanbedifficult, deep, complicated, and tender at the same time. Whatam I)"

Lin An was silent for a moment, then answered clearly: "Love."

After a creak, the door opened by itself.

Lin An took a last look at the corner where Cedric disappeared, and entered Ravenclaw's lounge sideways.
