DISCLAIMER: I don't own Harry Potter

Pairing: HP/CD

Summary: He was the one everyone wanted and he knew it. In fact he loved the control he had. But can he handle the advances of a certain Hufflepuff? Is he way out of his depth? During Harry's 4th year.

CHAPTER 1

Harry felt all the stares. Ever since he had returned to Hogwarts, they were there wherever he went. However for once it wasn't because of the lightening bolt scar etched on to this forehead. Oh no, they were looking for an entirely different reason. The majority of the stares coming from the male population of Hogwarts.

The surprising thing was Harry enjoyed it. For once he was not being idolised for a scar he wished he never had. He was being admired by all types of people, he even saw a few Slytherins taking a look and he didn't mind one bit. In fact, he liked how he finally had control over something in his life; his appearance. However he had also come to terms with the fact that at 5"3, his growth spurt would never arrive.

Harry never used to understand why he garnered such attention, but spending a summer in the presence of the two eldest Weasleys had taught him a lot. He planned to use everything they taught him to his advantage. However Ron was still utterly baffled by the new attention and voiced his opinion at breakfast on the first day of classes. Hermione soon put him right.

"Ron, you must be the most clueless person on the entire Earth! I will bet you any girl in this hall would kill to be Harry right now. He has a figure any girl would die for, although he is short, he has that adorable innocence that makes boys go wild. His hair makes anyone want to run their hand through it and his eyes..."

"Whoa Hermione", Ron interrupted, "One would think that you actually fancied Harry here. Plus, you act as if he is a girl".

"Oh be quiet Ronald. I'm obviously not in love with Harry, I'm just pointing out the reason for all the boys ogling Harry as we speak. Although Harry, the new wardrobe has done wonders"

Over the summer, Harry had become sick of wearing Dudley's oversized clothes however as he had no knowledge of fashion whatsoever, he had enlisted the help of the two eldest Weasleys who were home for the Quidditch World Cup. That had turned out to be rather fortuitous for the Gryffindor beauty. His thoughts were broken by Hermione reminding that they did not want to be late for Potions, their first lesson of the day.

"Great way to start a new year, torture with the Slytherins and an overgrown bat," remarked Ron.

" Well Ron, if you actually paid attention rather than mess around, maybe you wouldn't be failing..."

Ron and Hermione continued to bicker all the way down to the dungeons, which gave Harry time to think. He knew he would never have a restful year, but he knew one thing. Contrary to what Hermione thought, he was hardly innocent.

*******

"Hannah Abbot?"

"Yawn!"

"Parvati Patil?"

"Too easy"

"Pansy Parkinson?"

"No, don't know where she has been"

"Vincent Crabbe"

"That is just sick Kyle," remarked Cedric Diggory with a shudder of revulsion.

At the Hufflepuff table, four boys sat discussing their new challenge for the year. These boys included Cedric Diggory, Maxwell Carter (known as Maxie), Kyle Parker and Matt Roberts. Now one would think that these boys were harmless as they were members of Hufflepuff, however that assumption would be your downfall. You see, these four boys, although high achievers, were rather promiscuous and loved a challenge. Therefore currently, they were discussing their new target.

Every year, the boys would choose a target that one of the boys would try to attain and this had to be done by the end of the year and the stakes were high. This year was no different except Cedric wanted a challenge.

"Come on boys, think of someone who is completely off limits, someone who is unattainable. Someone who would never think of.....

Cedric broke off as his eyes zeroed in on to one person, his new target.

"And I have just the person, Harry Potter"

The other three boys burst out laughing at the idea of Cedric obtaining Harry Potter and continued for a good few minutes. It was Maxie who sobered up first and remarked,

"I hate to break it to you Ced, but you'll never be able to win him over."

"Oh really?" questioned Cedric. "Since you all think that, let's raise the stakes. If I manage to get Potter, all three of you will give me whatever I want from you, no questions asked. For example Kyle, I hear your father just bought you the latest broom," hinted Cedric.

"There's no way I'm gonna put my broom into this wager," Kyle exclaimed

"I thought you were so sure that I could never get Harry Potter."

"And if you lose?" questioned Maxie before Kyle could continue.

"All three of you can ask anything of me, absolutely anything,"

The three boys looked at one another, and in unison replied,

"Deal."

This is my first story, so be nice!!! I'm not sure if this is good, so reviews would be appreciated so I know to continue.
