I found this in one of my many notebooks. I edited it and it turned out alright actually! The OC is called Zara (I couldn't think of a surname and to be honest she doesn't really need one for this story).

I pulled off my blood-red killer heels and lay on the sofa in the Gryffindor common room. I started to sob. My boyfriend (well now ex-boyfriend) Cedric, had broken up with me that morning so he could date Cho Chang. It turned out he'd asked her to the ball ages ago but forgot to break up with me until today. I'd screamed a string of my choicest swear words and punched him right in his perfectly chiselled face. I had gone to the Yule Ball by myself, and had to endure a night of sympathetic glances and whispered rumours about the breakup. The worst thing I heard was Cedric himself telling his friends that the reason he left me was because I had been snogging other guys behind his back. This, of course, was not true in the slightest. Cedric was my first and only boyfriend and he knew it. In floods of tears, I performed the bat-bogey hex (with help from Ginny) on all of them and fled the Great Hall. So that's how I ended up alone, on a sofa, in a gorgeous red dress and crying my makeup off at 10 o'clock on Christmas Eve.

I was starting to wish that I had just gone home for Christmas like I usually did, when I heard the portrait hole open. I turned around (rubbing my eyes which probably made me look worse to be honest) to see Harry James Potter in a bit of a state, and Ron Weasley (who ran straight up the stairs to the boys dorm without noticing me). Harry's gaze finally came to rest on me, and he seemed rather shocked.
"Zara? You look.." He took in my appearance "..gorgeous and horrific at the same time, what happened?"
"Cedric happened." I said angrily. Harry came over and sat on the floor next to where I was sprawled out on the sofa.
"I thought you said you were over the breakup, or has he done something else?" He asked. Like the roses on Aurora's castle in Sleeping Beauty, anger began to creep up his face, threatening to overcome it entirely.

I loved how protective he was of me. When I first got together with Cedric, Harry promised to beat the bejesus out of him if he ever hurt me. Harry is so amazing and brave and talented and hot - wait, what?
"He was telling his friends that he broke up with me because I cheated on him, which I didn't!" As I said this, angry tears spouted from my eyes. I broke down and sat up on the sofa, hugging my knees. Harry got up off of the floor and put his arms around me.
"I know you didn't. Cedric is a git and he never deserved you, ok? You are the most kind, loyal and beautiful person I know, and I promise you I will make him pay for this." He said fiercely. I smiled at him, blushing slightly at the weight of the compliments.
"Me and Ginny bat-bogey hexed him and his brainwashed followers, so if you could finish him off then that would be great." I giggled. I put my legs down so I was sitting on the sofa like a normal person.
I turned to face Harry, who was staring at me with an expression on his face I had never seen before. When he looked at me like this, I felt like the only girl in the world. My blue eyes met his green ones, it was so intense I was barely breathing. Harry cupped my face in his hands, and gently wiped mascara goop from around my eyes. He instantly regretted this because he now had mascara on his hands; I didn't care. My eyelids fluttered closed as he leaned in and kissed me. It was blissful and far more romantic than when I used to kiss Diggory. Cedric was rough and passionate, but with Harry it meant something. There were true feelings there that made me indescribably happy. We broke apart and smiled sheepishly.

"I..I think I love you." He said in a tone that was a mixture of confusion and awe.
"I think I love you too."
When I said this he smiled, and my heart exploded.
"Oh, thank God!" He breathed. I laughed.
"You're such a weirdo!" I whispered as we both leaned in and sank into another perfect kiss.

First ever one shot

I've seen other people do clues for the next one at the end of each one shot, so I think I'll do that too. It will be another OC one and btw her name had me laughing for far longer than I care to admit. My little sister said "It's not funny Tilda, I think you've been in lockdown too long," and I think she might be right.

-Slytherin
-Hella blonde
-His father will hear about this

Mega obvious but hey, I'm still on the first one here.
