Pretty much all the Harry/Cedric clichés you can think of, all rolled into one. Prefects' bathroom, Yule Ball, angsty fluff, you name it. Oh, and it's a songfic to boot. Go on, read it--I dare you... :-)

26 years old, avid HP fan, live in a pretty rainy country. My favourite writer is George Orwell, which should be taken as a warning by anyone looking for pink fluff. I do not like pink fluff.
I used to be a hard core SS/HG shipper. Then came Dracontia and completely blew my mind with her HP/DM stories. And once I started reading slash, there was just no going back. I still enjoy a well-written SS/HG (or any pairing, really), but the current passion is pretty boy-on-boy action. :-) Any pairing, more or less, I'm not that picky (except for SS/HP, that really creeps me out for some reason.)
I'm also an avid Bandom fan (P!atD). Those fics can be found on my LJ if you want to explore the waters outside the HP realm one day.
2008-12-08: Today, I abandoned hope of finishing my SS/HG WIPs "Shades of Grey" and "Les innocents." I'm very sad about letting go, but I feel it was the right thing to do. (More details in the A/Ns of each story if you're interested).

Nice dance scene.

Thank you. :-)

Thank you. :-)
Good grief, I feel in need of another chapter! If you're staying in the outline of the Triwizard Tournament from cannon, the foreknowledge of the final outcome will truly be excruciating as we watch the star-crossed lovers. It would be a bitter-sweet experience, but I would like to see it. Hope there's an update even though you said THE END.

Flattery will get you anywhere. :-)I'm a bit 50/50 at the moment on whether there will be a spin-off of this one. I really liked writing it. So maybe. I'm not saying no. We'll see what time brings.Thank you so much for reviewing!

Well, people will talk, but then they always do, don't they? 
But being Triwizard Champions and both obviously very male, most of the onlookers would think it was some kind of joke a parody of them making fun of someone, sort of like the Weasley twins. Or that they had had a little too much butterbeer. 
But where is this truly going to lead?
Response from RedOrchid (Author of Hero)
I very much agree. :-)As to where it leads, there is now a chapter two as well. :-) Thanks for reading!

Oooh. A little naughtiness in the prefect's bathroom. But Harry is only fourteen... my fourteen year old hasn't even hit puberty yet! Must be those Wizarding genes LOL.Good story.

LOL. Actually, I think it's pretty "on time." I think between 12 and 14 is usually when people start to discover these things. Perhaps not as hands-on as Harry here, though :-)I always find it interesting how much the attitudes towards teenagers and their sexual development change from different countries. Where I live, 15 is legal for actual sex, which makes 14 totally common place for some heavy groping. :-)

16 here, although I think the actual average age of first sexual intercourse is more like 15.

Nice one. Unexpected and sweet. I never thought about those two, but it works. Thanks for sharing!

Wow. Just..wow. I think you have just gifted me with a new OTP. This is so cute and sweet and well-written, I think I'm in love. Can I have the boys for a bit? I promise I'll play nicely with them! ^.~ Great work! <33
