This is the best portrait of these two so far - I have never seen a better one.
I like how you solved the "weight" of these two by using the properties of their outfit (Orube's sashes) - if you'd keep down (so - if you'd take into account the gravity) the red sashes, the composition would be unbalaned (what is usually undesired in cases of portraits).
Additional thing to point out: you did keep in mind the construction of faces of these two, though not perfectly (but still - good job, not many fan-arts are anatomically correct).
The fact that Cedric doesn't embrace Orube - only slightly touches her head with his cheek - adds here even more power and strength to these two. Just... Well done. No stupid oversexualized poses, no sugar, two pairs of bright eyes with strong gaze.
I will skip rest of my "awes" and point out a few things that might be improved:
- Orube's hand is out of touch with Cedric; it does not cast shadow on Cedric's chest;
- Orube's outfit should be rendered out further: even if it's simpler in terms of pattern than Cedric's, it looks unfinished compared to Cedric's (add more details, make creases and folds less blurred/unclear);
- Well rendered out heads (faces!) and Orube's hand make the audience focus on the faces and close relationship - that's good, but still refining clothes would push the whole picture on another level; otherwise the clothes will remain too sketchy;
- I think that the source of light needs some more indication of it's direction; it appears to come from above and slightly in-front of characters, but we see shadow on top of Orube's arm and breast - even if we have two light sources (again, top and in-front of charas), these areas of Orube's silhouette need some improvement in this aspect.
One more thing: even if it's not your style, perhaps lighter eyelashes for Cedric would work?
