HELLO! So I was reading Romeo and Juliet when I decided I wanted to write this, so here it is, the first chapter, written in the dead of night! I really like Rose and Scorpious :)

So, here is what I have to say: Obviously this is spun off Romeo and Juliet thought I havent decided if I want it to end tragically yet. Anyway, please let me know what you think or if I mayjor screwed something up. Ideas, and suggestions for my story are appreatiated and taken seriously so thank you!

Please Enjoy: Rose and Her Scorpio


Two houses, both alike in dignity in magical Hogwarts—where our story shall begin,

were known for the fights that went between them.

Gryffindor for the proud, just and courageous.

Slytherin, for the cunning, resourceful and plotting.

But when two star crossed lovers have lived there whole lives learning to hate the other,

how is it that it is that one person becomes the most important thing to them?


Scorpious Malfoy had always been the kid that no one liked. Was it because he was evil, horrible, stupid or anything wrong with him? No, it was the stupid mistakes his father had made when he was younger.

At school, Scorpio was teased, ignored, pranked, and hated, all because of his father.

But his best friend had made things easier for him greatly. Nick hadn't known about his Scorpious's fathers past when they first met, in fact, he barely knew anything about the wizarding world. Nicholas Simonson was a muggleborn, and the purebloods best friend.

The way he was treated since a little boy had driven Scorpious into being placed into Slytherin, but he thought, quite possibly, he could have been a Gryffindor. A secret he always kept.

So now, after all the years in Hogwarts, it was finally seventh year and the mid-year dance for the seventh years was nearing. What would the theme would be, no one knew, but it was sure to be something amazing as everything at Hogwarts always was

"Scorpio!" Nick laughed he sat down for dinner. "It's tomorrow!"

"I know Nick," Scorpious smiled at the anxious boy. "I'm sure you'll both have a great time."

"I'm just worried that I'll do something stupid," Nick mumbled as a blush crept to his face at the very mention of the girl.

Nick and Lana Thomas had been friends for a long time, but Nick had finally struck up the courage to ask the little Ravenclaw out. Lana Thomas was the daughter of Luna and Dean Thomas, owners of the quibbler. Lana was very nice and didn't hold Scopious's dad's past against him. She was one of the few kids from another house that he actually could talk to.

"What about you? Don't have a date to the dance?" Nick asked trying to get the subject off of him.

"Nah, what girl would want to go with me?" Scorpious asked with a sigh and Nick gave him a sympathetic look.

Sure, there were several Slytherin girls that would be more than happy to accompany him to the dance, but those girls were not his type. Scorpio didn't have the pureblood views of his relatives. Lots of students had learned that Scorpio was really a nice guy over the years but, girls dating him meant that they would be pushed around by anyone who opposed him.

"Sorry mate," Nick pushed his shoulder and took a bite of his mashed potatoes, after shooting a glance at Lana.

"It's alright," Scorpious said but that's when Nick began to freak out.

"Hang on," he began to rattle. "You're still going to go right? I mean what if something happens? Oh, dude, please don't leave me!"

"Is that desperation Nicholas Simonson?" Scorpious teased.

"Yes!" Nick said seriously and then they both laughed.

"Alright, alright," Scorpio sighed and he wondered what would happen with all the seventh year house kids in one room, it could turn out dreadful if someone did something stupid.


"Roooseee! Rosyyyy! Rose Weasley! Ginger! Weasley! Oye! Rose!" Albus called and rolling her eyes, Rose looked over at her cousin.

"What?" she snapped and his smile degraded, slightly.

"They just gave out the new updates for the dance!" Albus told her and she raised an eyebrow.

"And I care because…?" she asked and he sighed, sitting next to her.

"Because you're going," he said as if he were pointing out the obvious. "Apparently, it's a surprise theme!"

"Oh, goody!" she cried enthusiastically, rolled her eyes and looked back at her book.

"Oh, come on, listen!" Albus insisted and held the sheet of paper back up to his face. "Dress code is whatever because the entrance will transform your look."

"Oh well, that definitely makes me want to go," Rose said sarcastically and Albus chuckled.

"Come on, it might be fun," Albus said and she pursed her lips.

"There is no way I'm letting you miss the senior dance!" Albus shouted at her. "I'm sure you've been asked by some guys."

"Yeah," Rose said wrinkling her nose. Nearly twenty guys had asked her just today. But she knew it wasn't because of who she was, or what she was. It was because of her parents, and that was all.

"So?" Albus scooted closer.

"I will be attending the dance alone!" she said with a smile and he frowned at her but sighed in defeat. "Who are you taking anyway?"

This caught him off guard and he sank into his seat as his cheeks went red. "Isabellaragner," he mumbled.

"Sorry, what was that?" Rose asked.

"Isabella Ragner," he said a little clearer.

"Finally!" Rose beamed at him and his lips ghosted a smile, obviously pleased with himself.


The next night, Scorpious quickly walked into the great hall, hoping just to get the night over with. The last thing he wanted was a night of horrible looks from the Gryffindors. But as he passed under the door, he felt his casual clothes transform on him and felt something on his face.

It took him a moment to realize what had happened, but Scorpious soon understood. The dance's theme was masquerade, and the spell that transformed your clothes, was to make you undistinguishable.

His lips formed a smile and he realized maybe, just maybe, he could have fun tonight.

Rose walked around the hall silently. It was busy everywhere. She liked no one knowing who she was. It was refreshing because people weren't crowding her constantly. It was nice, peaceful.

"Oh, I am so sorry!" she said as she completely walked into someone.

"It's fine," the tall boy replied and they he stood. He helped her back to her feet and she smiled at him until their eyes meet.

She was consumed by the stunning silver color that stared at her intensely under the mask. Her own green eyes staring back.

"Would you, care to dance?" the boy asked uncertainly, holding out a hand to her and she looked down at it.

"Sure," she said laying her small and slender hand his large and cold one.

The masked boy led her out onto the dance floor and their hands found their way to the correct place. Her hand, still rested in his as they swayed to the music felt, oddly in place. His hand on her hip felt so real, so natural, so right.

"Your eyes, they are so beautiful," Scorpious said out loud, without even thinking. They both blushed, staring at the ground for a moment. He didn't know who this strange girl was, but he knew there was something about her, that made him want to stare at her forever. There was something about her that made him want to hold her hand as long as the sands of time kept trickling through the hourglass.

"Thanks," she said and his heart melted from her voice. It almost sounded, poetic?

I didn't believe in fairytales, until I first met you

I didn't believe in love at first site, until I saw you

I didn't believe in true loves kiss, until you kissed me

And I sure as hell never believed in love, until I loved you

The song ended, and Scorpious let his hand drop from her side, but his eyes never left hers. A small strand of her red hair hung in front of her face, hidden by the little black mask.

Her dress was long, black and soft purple and she stared at it in awe. She wondered if she would be able to keep it when the night was over.

Rose looked back up at the man in front of her. His tux was black and blue, his mask white and black. He was a mysterious guy, and she hadn't the faintest idea who he was, but she liked that he didn't know who she was.

She didn't ask for his name when the song ended, just stood there, frozen in place. She liked that he wasn't there because of her parents, she liked that he had asked her to dance as the unknown girl, not Rose Wealsey.

"Would you like to step out on the…balcony?" she giggled as she looked over at the balcony that had formed for the night.

"With you? Yeah," Scorpious replied and they made their way to the balcony.

"I'm usually not one for parties," Rose confessed.

"Me either," Scorpious replied and he leaned against the railing next to her.

"I kind of like this," Rose told him. "Us not knowing who people are, me not knowing who y—others are." Rose inwardly cringed as she realized what she had nearly said out loud.

"I agree, it's nice, refreshing," Scorpio nodded. She seemed to understand.


"Okay, favorite song?" Scorpio asked.

"Less than Perfect, by Pink," Rose said and he raised an eyebrow. "Muggle singer," she told him and he made a note to listen to the song later.

"Favorite thing to do?" she asked and he considered it for a moment.

"Read a good book, one with endless opportunities, one that brings me out of this world and into another, one that…yeah," Scorpio quickly stopped babbling and looked at the girl who was nodding in agreement.

"Me too!" she laughed and Scorpious smiled. His eyes drifted from her hidden face for a moment and he saw the clock.

"Wow," he whispered as he realized he'd been talking to the girl for nearly three hours, just leaning against the railing of the balcony.

"What?" she asked and he indicated to the clock. "Oh, geez."

"Yeah, I guess it's just easy to talk to you," Scopious shrugged and she smiled.

"You're easy to talk to as well," she told him and silver once again met green as their eyes met.

"Well maybe after tonight we could talk again?" he suggested and Rose's heart pounded.

"I'd love that," she told him.

"I'd love that too," he told her and he began to lean closer to her, not even realizing what he was doing.

He heard the clock sound midnight, and the bell rang as he neared her. Her eyes shut as they got only millimeters away and there lips touched, warm and light. It was the best kiss he'd ever had.


Well, This was my attempt at a 'first chapter.' I really hope you liked it, and that it was as much fun to read as it was to write which I doubt cuz I had alot of fun writing it!
