Well, in the fanfiction, Cedric may be protective of Harry when it comes to dealing with bullies at school. Maybe some Slytherin students are picking on Harry, and Cedric uses his influence as a popular Hufflepuff student to stop them. Also, during magical competitions where there are risks involved, Cedric would be constantly watching out for Harry and ready to offer help if needed.
One common scenario could be in a dangerous situation at Hogwarts, like when there's a dark magic threat. Cedric might step in front of Harry to shield him. Another could be during a Quidditch match where an opposing team is playing dirty, and Cedric ensures Harry is not targeted unfairly.
In this fanfiction, Cedric could show his protectiveness in various ways. For instance, when there are rumors spreading about Harry in the wizarding world that could put him in a bad light, Cedric might defend Harry's reputation. He could also be protective when it comes to Harry's safety in the Forbidden Forest during a school assignment. Cedric would be vigilant and use his magical skills to keep Harry out of harm's way. He might also be protective of Harry's feelings, for example, if other students are making fun of Harry because of his connection to Voldemort, Cedric would be there to comfort and support him.
