Hello everyone! This is the first chapter of my new Rose/Scorpius story. Please review and tell me what you thought. :)
Rose Weasley ran excitedly through the wall onto Platform 9 ¾. As normal, children were running around, trying to find their friends. She pushed her way through the masses, trying to find someone familiar. That wasn't hard considering how many Weasleys there were. Rose waved as she saw her Aunt Ginny and Uncle Harry standing by the train. She fixed her Head Girl badge before walking over.
"Rose how are you?" Ginny asked as she hugged Rose. "Congrats again on making Head Girl. Where are your parents?"
"I'm fine thanks. Oh, my parents are somewhere here with Hugo. Where's Albus?"
Albus was Rose's favorite cousin. They had been practically best friends since their birth. When they turned eleven and went to Hogwarts, Rose thought the world was ending; they were sorted into different houses. Rose was placed into Gryffindor while Albus was placed in Slytherin. Albus did not seem upset by this; he seemed to be one of the few. He had realized that not everyone in Slytherin was a bad guy, and he wanted to give the infamous house a better reputation. Rose was okay with it as long as Albus was, however there was one thing she couldn't accept.
"Oh, he's off with Scorpius."
Him. It had been six years since she had met Malfoy, yet they were still enemies. Despite Al's resistance they couldn't get along. Her father had told Rose first year to beat Malfoy in everything, and that had set her off. She tried her hardest to beat Malfoy in every class, but it seemed to never work. They would get practically the same scores on everything. They had both receiving twelve O.W.L.s each, and were taking the same N.E.W.T. classes. What really annoyed Rose was that it seemed like Malfoy could care less about school. She never once saw him studying in six years. Rose, on the other hand, would spend every free second she had studying for her exams. Academics were her life while Malfoy would rather be pranking with Albus or snogging his new girlfriend of the week. She never understood why almost every girl at school found him attractive. He was just an annoying git.
Rose saw her parents and Ginny waved them over. The four friends began to talk and reminisce about their days at Hogwarts. Rose had heard these stories numerous times and wanted to leave. She said goodbye to her parents and walked towards the train. She put her luggage on the cart and was surprised to see her best friend Alice Longbottom behind her.
"Rose!" she yelled, "How are you? Can you believe we're going back for our last time?"
"Alice, calm down. It's only been a week since I've seen you last!"
They had made their way onto the train and found a compartment.
Alice practically lived at Rose's house during the summer. She even came to the Burrow most Sundays with the whole Weasley clan. Rose knew the real reason for this, but she was sworn to secrecy. After chatting for a few minutes, Alice and Rose set off to find their friend Alaina Lewis. Alaina was a muggle born, but that made no difference to Alice and Rose. Alaina was the flirt of the three, and it seemed like she always had a new boyfriend.
As the train was leaving, Alice and Rose found Alaina. However when they slid open the door, they saw her snogging her newest boyfriend, Sam Wood. Rose and Alice gasped, and starting laughing. The couple stopped what they were doing when they saw Rose and Alice laughing. Sam muttered something before leaving the compartment.
"Thanks guys. Really appreciated that," Alaina said.
"Our pleasure," they replied.
Rose sat down by the window and combed her red bushy hair. It seemed to always be in the way. A few seconds later, Albus Potter walked into the compartment. Alice immediately got nervous and fixed her hair trying to divert attention from herself. Rose ran over and gave her favorite cousin a hug.
"Hey, Rose. Congrats again on Head Girl."
Albus was smirking, and Rose found this curious. He had been happy for Rose when she had told him the news in August. What was up now?
"Where's that annoying git you call your friend?" Rose asked, trying to change the subject.
"Really Rose! You've know Scorpius for six years and you still can even say his name. Why can't you accept that he's a good guy? He should be here soon. And besides, he's got a surprise for you."
"I don't want anything from Malfoy. The best thing he could do is get expelled so I never have to see his hideous face again," Rose replied.
"You don't mean that Weasley. You know you really love my face."
Rose nearly had a heart attack when she saw Scorpius in the doorway. Al walked over and patted his best friend on the back. Scorpius had a grin plastered on his face due to how red Rose had become. Alaina and Alice sat by the window, quietly observing. They tried to not get in the middle.
"What the hell do you want Malfoy?" Rose practically hissed as she said his name. She couldn't stand to look at him.
"Oh Weasley, so kind and observant," he said sarcastically.
Rose was fuming. What could he be talking about?
"Shut up Malfoy. I'll have you know I'm very observant. Besides, I'm Head Girl now; do you want me to deduct points before we even get to Hogwarts? You know I will."
"Rose," Albus said quietly.
Everyone was staring at Rose, apparently knowing something she didn't.
"What?" she yelled loudly. She was past annoyed, she was infuriated.
"No, it's okay Al. I like seeing Weasley so upset. Let's see how long it takes her to figure it out." He was smirking.
"FIGURE WHAT OUT?" she screamed.
"Rose," Alice said gently, "Look at Scorpius."
Rose looked Scorpius in the eyes for the first time that day. He was on the verge of laughing. Her eyes moved down to his gray sweater. A purple badge was pinned to his chest. The inscription read: Head Boy. Rose felt like she could pass out. This can't be happening. He can't be Head Boy; anyone but Malfoy. There was no way she could survive the year with Malfoy as her co-Head. This year was supposed to be perfect; now it seemed like hell.
I hope you liked it. Please review and tell me what you thought! Thanks. :)
