pretty sure you've read a million of these but I haven't written in such a long time my writing has become a tad bit rusty, so pls bear w me. also our golden boy's alive in this and has a successful job as an Auror YAY!

"Diggory, tell me you're joking right now." I glared daggers at Cedric, who still, had the sparkle in his eye after telling me about his idea.

"Does it look like I'm joking? Y/L/N, this isn't such a bad idea.p" Cedric  twirled the wand around his fingers and gave me the puppy face.

"Keep it down,will you? everybody's gonna here us."

"There's no one here!" Cedric looked around the offic, incredulous.

I shook my head, "You're only doing this to get Helen's attention." and I went back to reading the details about our next Auror mission. Helen worked in the Department of International Co-operations and Cedric suddenly one day out of the blue decided to try and get her attention so he could figure out if she liked him back.

"Okay, yeah, maybe that too but then jealousy is the only way she's gonna come around and finally...like me." Cedric shut the book and pulled the chair I was sitting on towards him, "Geez, you're awfully light."

I shook my head, "Making a girl jealous isn't the best thing. And...you do realise that you sound like a 1st year, don't you? We're twenty one now, start acting like it. " I swatted his hand away when he began playing with the file of papers on the table.

"Love, please, don't you want to see me happy?"

"That is an emotional blackmail, Diggory." I stood up and started to gather my files. I looked at him and gave in, "Fine, but you owe me big time." what could go wrong?

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Cedric jumped up and hugged me and I tried not to melt in his arms as the familiar feel of butterflies erupted in my stomach.

A bunch of Aurors walked in, discussing some things and nodded in acknowledgement; Cedric and I were close, everyone knew it so it wasn't unusual for us to hug. Cedric held up our joined hands, and huge grin on his face, "She said yes! We're together! Spread the word!"

************

Cedric's and I's fake relationship had been pretty convincing for everyone, but Helen wasn't fazed by us at all. She had been so happy when she found out we were together and there was no trace of pretence on that beautiful face of hers at all. She would give my a thumbs up everytime she saw us on a 'date'.

"This isn't working, why isn't this working, love?" Cedric muttered as raised my hand to his lips, kissing it only when Helen looked.

I rolled my eyes and snatched my hand, "She clearly isn't into you. Although, you know what you should do?"

Cedric tore his eyes from Helen and looked at me and I raised my eyebrows, "You should build a bridge and get over it."

Cedric looked as though he was contemplating the thought but then said, "No, I don't think I will."

That night, there was a celebration, a party because some of our Aurors managed to catch a few other wizards who were involved in the Dark Arts. I had refused to talk to Cedric, for he was being stubborn as ever and well, I couldn't handle seeing him fall for another girl. He was also partially the reason I didn't want to go to the party.

"I just don't feel like celebrating, Anna. You guys go on, I'll just stay here and complete some of the briefing." I waved my best friend off and she, knowing that I was going to burst out any moment, left with a silent bidding and my front door closed softly with a click.
