A/N: Welcome to my Rose/Scorpius drabble bin! (: Every chapter is based on a song I love.
Okay, so I don't really know how this chapter is going to end up looking, because FFN is being a little screwy with me this afternoon, so I aplogize in advance if the title looks a little funny to you /:
Anyways, this chapter was fairly easy to right in my burst of inspiration! I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. I love it just the way it is (: It played like a movie in my mind, so hopefully it will in yours as well.

Listen to: The Rhythm Of Love by The Plain White T's


The Rhythm Of Love

"We may only have tonight, but 'til the morning sun you're mine, all mine.
Play the music low and sway to the rhythm of love."


The summer sun tickled his nose as he climbed the tallest oak around. He laughed when he nearly fell and still continued his ascent.

"Come on Scorpius, you're going to get yourself killed!" she pleaded.

He shook his head and continued on.

"This really isn't funny, you know! Stop fooling around!"

"Relax Rose, I'll be fine!"

"Come down, please!" she begged.

He sat himself on a sturdy limb and peered beyond the leaves to see the most beautiful sunset. "I love the view from up here! Warm sun, wind in my ears. Why don't you join me?" he called down to her.

"I much prefer flying." she retorted.

He chuckled and waited, knowing full well that she would eventually join him out of loneliness. When she did, he helped her, pointing out the best branches to take hold of and how best to pull herself upwards.

By the time she joined him she was gasping for air. She glared at him for a moment before folding her arms furiously across her chest, sticking her tongue out at him like a five year old who had just lost a bet to their sibling.

He smiled her way, only making her hmph, in annoyance.

Slowly and carefully he made his way closer to her, taking her hands in his own and pointing to the sunset beyond. He felt a wave of happiness as she gasped, knowing his surprise had been worth the climb.

He pulled her closer to him. She shrieked, "You're going to kill me!" only making him laugh.

"That wasn't funny, Scorpius."

He jumped to the branch directly beneath them, making her scream even louder.

"Stop it!" she cried.

He jumped to the next lowest branch again and again until they were finally reunited with the ground.

She stomped away furiously, determined never to speak to her boyfriend again before he ran after her and twirled her around in the air.

Between giggles she determindly yelled, "I . . . am never . . . speaking . . . to . . . you again!"

He smiled triumphantly as he caught her up into a warm embrace and she planted a firm kiss upon his lips, forcing his heart to beat like the fastest drum as she eveloped his world.

When she pulled away she laughed, her saphire eyes rolling into the back of her head and her red hair dancing playfully.

He began to twirl her around and around, dancing with her by the moonlight of the forest near his home. The sound of their laughter penetrating the silence, slowly morphing into the sound of love and happiness.
