In memoriam
Our story begins in the aftermath of Cedric's death, but before his funeral. Amos, is trying to write a memoriam for his son's upcoming funeral with his boyfriend, Dedalus.
Amos muttered, "Cedric was my life, my soul, my heart... No, no, that's not right."
Dedalus suggested, "Why don't you say in memoriam at the beginning?"
Amos nodded and said, "In memoriam of Cedric Diggory, son, friend and classmate to many. How's that?"
Dedalus smiled sadly. "Perfect, Am."
Amos went on, "Cedric was my whole life after his mother passed and his death has left me devastated beyond belief and... And, and alone, I-I-I."
He broke off and began to sob quietly.
Dedalus insisted, "Sit down, I'll do that for you."
Amos sat down beside Dedalus and Dedalus continued, "In this war stricken world with nobody but my dear husband Dedalus to console my loss. While he can provide a romantic love, the void that Cedric's death left behind will never be filled again. The love I felt for my son will never fade."
Amos wiped his tears away and quietly asked, "Did you just write yourself into Ced's memoriam?"
Dedalus smirked. "I totally did."
Amos smiled. "I like it, all of it."
Dedalus put down the unfinished memoriam and beamed "I meant it by the way."
Amos grinned. "I know Ded, I love you too."
Dedalus whispered, "We probably shouldn't kiss while we're meant to be writing Ced's memoriam."
Amos shoved the memoriam to the side and smirked. "He would want us to move on with our lives."
Dedalus agreed, "Yeah, he would."
Amos passionately kissed Dedalus over and over again.
