Summary: You and Cedric go to your meadow.
Today wasn't the best day at Hogwarts for you.
Draco was being annoying, as per usual. Always had something to say about you, you ignored him most of the time. Not giving him the reaction he was looking for.
Cedric, your boyfriend usually got into some banters with Draco whenever he was around and Draco started talking about you.
Draco would always flirt with you too, which bothered you even more.
He mainly did it to bother Cedric, which usually worked.
“Hey love, looking pretty today.” Draco would call out to you.
“Why don’t you ditch your Hufflepuff boyfriend and come be mine?”
“We both know I could make you feel better than he ever could.” The first time he said that to you, you had slapped him very hard in the face.
His head snapped to the side, a bruise already starting to form on his face.
He stuck his tongue into his cheek as he brought his hand up to the spot you hit him.
“Don’t ever say that to me again.” You spat at him.
He left you alone for 3 days after that.
You thought it was the end, but on the third day, Draco was back to annoying you.
You never did tell Cedric about that comment Draco made. The word got around that you had slapped Draco, Cedric asked what he said, but you lied.
You knew Cedric would be absolutely furious if he heard about that.
You’d tell Cedric when Draco was bothering you, it made his blood boil.
Then your professor got on your nerves today as well.
Snape decided to give you so much homework and 3 assignments that were due Friday.
Today was Wednesday.
But the day was finally over, you couldn’t wait to see Cedric.
You guys had found this secret meadow not too far from Hogwarts. You had to walk through the forest a little ways before you came to it, that’s why nobody else knew about it.
You started walking towards the woods. He was going to meet you at your guys’ meadow.
-
You walked through the woods, enjoying the fresh breath of air, admiring the scenery around you.
It was truly beautiful. But the meadow was even more beautiful.
After 20 minutes of walking through the woods, you saw the opening to the meadow. You smiled, picking up your pace.
You reached the entrance. Sighing peacefully as you looked at all the yellow, purple, and white wildflowers.
You walked to the middle of the meadow, dropping your bag to the ground and sitting.
You fiddled with some flowers while waiting for Cedric.
-
You heard crunches of leaves and sticks. Indicating that someone was coming.
You looked up to see the beautiful brunette step through the trees and into the sunlight that shown above the meadow.
The brightest smile appeared on both of your faces when you looked at each other.
He quickened his pace coming over to you.
You stood up, wrapping your arms around him as he got to you.
He pulled you into a tight hug. His hand around your waist and the other on the back of your head, tangled in your hair.
“Hello love.” He whispered, pressing a kiss to the top of your head.
“Hi.” Your smile growing bigger having Cedric in your arms.
You both sat down. You sat in between his legs, draping both of yours over his one as you were facing sideways.
You fiddled with the flowers and your hands while Cedric played with your hair.
“How was your day?” He asked you.
You just gave him a certain look. He knew immediately that it wasn’t good.
“Oh no, what happened?” He asked.
“Well Snape decided to give us so much homework and 3 new assignments that are due Friday. And well of course Draco was getting on my nerves.” You mumbled the part about Draco.
Cedric stiffened. “What’d he do now?” He asked.
“Just the usual.” You shrugged.
He could tell that you didn’t want to talk about it, so he dropped it. For now.
“Come here.” He said, as he pulled you into him.
You leaned against his chest; both of his arms wrapped around you. He rubbed your shoulder up and down as he placed a kiss to the top of your head.
“I’ll help you with all of Snapes work, if you’d like.” Cedric said.
You smiled. “That would be great, thank you.” You said.
You guys stayed in the field for hours, talking about whatever came to mind. Soon the sky started to darken.
“We should probably head back before we can’t see.” Cedric said, looking to the distance into the woods.
You nodded, standing up.
He stood up, grabbing your bag and handing it to you.
You smiled taking it from him.
-
It was already quite dark in the woods, you had to take Cedric’s hand as he led you through the woods because you couldn’t see the best in the dark.
He had to catch you a lot as you almost fell from tripping over tree branches.
He laughed at you each time.
“I should just carry you.” He said.
You laughed thinking he was joking, then nearly tripped again.
“That’s it.” Cedric said, as he wrapped one arm around the middle of your back and the other under your knees, picking you up off the ground bridal style.
You squealed as he did so quickly.
“Cedric!” You laughed.
-
You guys got back to your dorm room.
You and Cedric took a seat on your bed as you pulled out all the homework and assignments.
The both of you started working through all of it.
-
Cedric was talking about one part of the assignment and realized you weren’t responding to him, he turned to look at you.
You were sleeping peacefully beside him.
He smiled at the sight of you.
He gathered all of the work you two had done and put it back into your bag, he slowly and quietly got up, placing the bag on your desk before he crawled back into bed with you.
He pulled you close to him, wrapping his arms around you.
The butterflies in his stomach erupting.
He was so happy to be able to call you his. You were his everything. He fell asleep to the sound of your peaceful breaths.
