Eileen Diggory and @chlobenet‘s Lily Leyton

“He doesn’t like me.”

“Eileen, you’re being ridiculous!”

Eileen Diggory and Lily Leyton were strolling along the streets of Hogsmeade, weaving between their fellow Hogwarts students. The older of the two waved at her brother, who was messing around with some of his mates outside of Honeydukes.

“Why would Fred Weasley, of all people, suddenly take a liking to me?” the Hufflepuff questioned, “It doesn’t make any sense.”

“Maybe because you’re kind and funny?” Lily raised her eyebrows in response, slightly baffled by her friend’s confusion.

The girls were an unlikely pair but they had more than made it work. Eileen was actually rather fond of a few students in her “rival” house, including young Luna Lovegood.

“Yeah, right. I’m just Cedric Diggory’s little sister.”

“Oh, come on! That’s not all that you are. You’re Eileen Diggory: loyal, bubbly, Hufflepuff and proud. Hell, you turned Snape’s hair green during your first year!”

“It was an accident and we don’t talk about that!”

“The point is,” the Ravenclaw continued, “there is a lot more to you than being Cedric’s sister.”

Eileen bit her lip in thought, looking at the ground in front of them.

“Look, I know Fred. He’s a good bloke-” the redhead smirked at the other girl, who had been raised in France, using the word ‘bloke’, “and he genuinely seems to fancy you. Now, shall we partake in a Butterbeer?”

With a roll of her eyes and a grin, Eileen hooked her arm through the blonde’s and sauntered towards the Three Broomsticks.

Her brother, Cedric, is her best friend.

Hufflepuff af

One of her potions gone wrong turned Snape's hair green during her first year; he's disliked her ever since.

Molly absolutely adores Eileen. She also hopes that the girl will be a good influence on her mischievous son. that sort of happens

Loves Black Forest Trifle (someone suggested this and I think it’s a good idea)

While she is obviously rooting for her brother in the Triwizard Tournament, she doesn’t participate in the Harry Potter hate campaign. (That kid has already been through enough in his lifetime; she believes him when he says he didn’t put his name in the Goblet of Fire.)

George becomes quite protective of her after she begins dating Fred. He isn’t about to let anyone mess with his twin’s lady friend.
