" No dude, she's hot! Look at her!" He said, but his friends obviously weren't paying attention, and or didn't care.
Her brown hair was wavy, and perfectly out of place. Her eyes caught his, and she looked at him with disdain.
What did he ever do? Since the start of the first year he was invisible to her. Her brother too, but that's beside the point. After the mishap with the tail in transfiguration, Hugo and Scorpius would never be friends. No matter how much Scorpius apologized, Hugo continued to dislike him. If she ever had to so much as look at him, she looked with disgust. He was insanely in love with her, but she HATED him. Life is not fair.
"Scorpius, we HAVE to get to quidditch practice! Are you coming, or are you going to stare at that weird Weasley girl forever?" Yelled Dennis. Dennis loved sports. Both magical, and non- magical. He could whip Scorpius in football.
With one more quick glance at Rose, he ran off to get ready for his all-time favourite team game.
Papers. Textbooks. Quills. Confusion. They were all mixed around on the desk in front of him.
Amortentia…. Amortentia was….
"Dad! Come here- I need your help." He called down the dimly lit hallway.
Scorpius's mind was trying to focus on reviewing his spells, but it kept drifting off to a set of deep blue eyes, and a stunningly gorgeous face.
The once warming fireplace was now a pile of lightly glowing ash. There were only the candles in the room to give him light now that the sun had gone down. His house was a very gothic, Victorian mansion. You could tell this room was extremely old. The walls were lined with dust covered books. There was no electricity. Forest green paint was peeling. The chestnut colored desk creaked as you put your book on it. The study was the eeriest room in the house by far.
"Do you need some help studying?" His father chuckled. His dad was the greatest, but got pretty scary at points. Especially if he mentioned certain parts of the school.
"How am I supposed to know what amortentia is?" He grinned.
"Scorpius, you'll have to remember this one. Amortentia is the most powerful love potion in the world. Any woman you want will come to you." Draco winked at him.
"Got it dad," Scorpius rolled his eyes. Although it probably could help him with his predicament with Rose. His dad was always bothering him about love. Was that normal for most dads?
"Dad," he started. Scorpius wanted to ask him about Rose, and why she might hate him so much. His dad might get angry, but he was a 5th year now, and he wouldn't cry if his father got a little ticked at the subject. "Why do the Weasley's hate me so much? I don't understand what I did wrong."
His father sighed. He paused and leaned forward in his chair, his clasped hands resting on his knees. He looked Scorpius in the eye sternly.
" Scorpius, there is an extensive explanation for that question. That of which, you are still too young to hear." His dad relaxed back into his leather seat. " In the end, however, it doesn't matter. You shouldn't be aligning yourself with that kind of scum."
"But dad..." he protested
"Scorpius. That's enough with that subject. Drop it." His father seethed. he stood up.
"Dad, can I still have some help with studying?" He asked hopefully.
"Son, you have your mother's brains. I'm sure you can figure it out." And with that, he left. The door closing made the room feel cold and empty, like all of the happiness had exited. All there was to do now was study.
