Chedric is the het ship between Cho and Cedric from the Harry Potter fandom.
Canon[]
Cedric and Cho both attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Cedric was one year above Cho, and he was a Hufflepuff while she was a Ravenclaw. By Cedric's fifth and Cho's fourth year, the two became the Seekers of their respective Quidditch teams. They likely would have played against each other numerous times. In Cho's fifth year, when Harry asked Cho to the Yule Ball, she told him that Cedric had already asked her and she had said yes, and afterwards the two began to date. At one point, they went on a date to Madam Puddifoot's Tea Shop, a place that Cho adored.[1]
For the second task of the Triwizard Tournament, the champions would have to swim into the Blake Lake to retrieve something that was lost by them. For Cedric, Cho Chang was taken as a 'hostage'. She was put under a spell, and Cedric was forced to save her. He does this successfully and places first for the round, earning forty-seven points. He also invites Cho to the Yule Ball, and they attend together, as each other dates. They dance together during the ball.
During the third task, Cedric was killed by Voldemort, and as a result this ends the relationship between Cho and Cedric. Cho mourned him at the end of the year with the other Hogwarts students. For the next year, Cho struggled over the loss Cedric. Her grief led her to almost constantly crying and in turn caused her Quidditch abilities to suffer. She became more depressed over Cedric's death. In Cho's sixth year, while training under Dumbledore's Army she kissses Harry Potter but felt guilty over this since she was still mourning Cedric at the time.
Despite her intense grief, Cho does manage to date others including Harry, and eventually marries a muggle after the Second Wizarding War, and manages to move on from the pain of losing Cedric.
Fanon[]
Although not a rare pair, it isn't very common either. Most tend to accept the couple for what it was. It is also shipped less in fandom due to there being limited interactions shown between the two. This is due to the series almost exclusively being shown from Harry's point of view, so the relationship wasn't focused on as much as others. Most fics of the two typically have them as a background pair, focusing more on other relationships. Although some will also have focus on the two. It most commonly rivals the Hedric (Harry/Cedric) ship, and Charry (Harry/Cho).
On AO3 it is the second most written ship for Cedric and the most written for Cho.
