Who said Cedric was loving and very kind?
He was just the 'boyfriend' of a 15/16 year old immature girl.
And from my observations, that doesn't mean a great deal.
I think it's a big mistake to ascribe adult feelings to kids just past pubescence.
Shock that he's gone, yes, confusion, maybe; but recovering from a significant 
relationship? I don't think so.
