Was Cedric Diggory gay?

[que_44601]

After watching "Goblet of Fire" for the past couple of weeks, I
noticed a few things.

*When Harry came out to talk to Cedric, who was relaxing with his
friends, Cedric was laying on the bench with his head on this brown-
haired boy.

*This same brown-haired boy was the first one to hug Cedric after
Cedric put his name in the goblet and also after he was named champion.

That made me wonder if perhaps he was gay. Also, at the ball where Ron
and Hermione are arguing, on the steps are three girls and two of them
are holding hands and sitting really close. I think it would be cool
if a couple of the students were gay, but I was just wondering.
