Chapter One: A Surprise Guest
I jumped up in excitement when there was a knock on the door. I hadn't seen Albus once this summer. For some reason Uncle Harry let Albus stay with the Malfoy family for a month. For some other unknown reason Albus was best friends with Scorpius. Dad reached the door before I did and opened it.
I froze when I saw who was standing there, with a trunk. Scorpius gave me a smug smile when he saw me stop dead in my tracks. "Hello there, Rosie. Miss me?"
Albus rolled his eyes and walked to over to me to give me a hug. "Why is he here?" I asked at the same time as my father. Uncle Harry stepped inside and shut the door. "Didn't Hermione tell you that Ginny and I are going away for a few weeks?"
"Yes," Dad said slowly, "But she said we would be watching after Albus. Not a Malfoy."
"Since the Malfoy's aloud me to stay with them dad thought it would nice to take Scorpius off their hands for a little while," Albus said setting his stuff down. He pulled off his green and silver scarf.
"I am not having two Slytherin's staying here," Dad said to Harry.
Uncle Harry sighed. "Scorpius is fine. He has stayed with us before. I spoke with Draco not too long ago and-"
"Oh I'm sure he was just thrilled about his son spending weeks with the Weasley family." Dad cut in
"No, actually, he responded like you are right now," Uncle Harry said. "I have to get going," He smiled at Mom and Dad and left after hugging Albus good-bye
Dad frowned and stormed upstairs muttering something about how Mom would be the one to deal with them.
A few minuets later Mom came down stairs. "Albus!" She said happily and gave him a hug. She pulled away and looked down at Scorpius, her smile becoming strained. "I'm glad you could join us, Scorpius."
He smiled sarcastically and looked around the room. I saw him wrinkle his nose in disgust, but he didn't say anything. "Albus, you know where the guest room is. I transfigured the queen size bed into two twin sized ones for you boys."
"Thanks, Aunt Hermione." Albus said and headed upstairs. "Come on, Scorpius."
The blond brat sighed loudly and followed Albus upstairs. Once I couldn't see them anymore I turned to look at Mom.
"Why are you letting him stay here?"
Mom shook her head and walked into the kitchen, me at her heels. "Harry and Ginny said Scorpius has been fine when he has visited them. Even Draco has apparently been civil about the whole thing."
"Yes, but I hate him." I put my hands on my hips and stared up at her.
"Then just stay out of each others way."
I groaned and headed up stairs. I could hear Scorpius and Albus talking about Quidditch. I was going to ignore them and go straight to my room and until his voice stopped me. I spun around to face him.
"Hey Weasley" Scorpius said sneering at me. "So who do you think will win the cup this year, hmm? Gryffindor or perhaps Slytherin for the fourth year in a row— which also happens to be the amount of time I have been Keeper and Albus had been Seeker."
I smirked at him. "You're going to have to do better than that, Malfoy. If you knew anything about me you would know that I don't care about Quidditch. It would only bother me if a Slytherin was smart than me, but I don't have to worry about that."
"Except in Potions. That's one class you'll never best me at. That and Defense Against the Dark Arts."
I clenched my jaw. I was good at Potions. Scorpius just happen to have been brewing before he even came to Hogwarts. As for Defense, that's just not my best subject.
I pretended like his comment didn't bother me and I flipped my copper hair over my shoulder. "Whatever, Malfoy." I turned on my heel and headed for my bed room.
I sat on my bed, biting my lip. There's no way Malfoy is going to do better than me at Potions this year. I hopped off the bed and opened my trunk pulling out my Potions book. I sat back down and began reading.
Two-hundred and thirty one pages later I heard a knock at my door. "Come in," I said without looking up.
Albus came over and covered the book with his hands. "Dinner is ready," he said and then playfully added, "Geek." I marked my page and closed the book.
"I'll be right down," I muttered
Albus nodded and shut my door after he left. I grabbed a hair elastic and opened my door. I flipped my head over and pulled up all of my hair. As I as putting my hair into a pony tail, I bumped right into something.
Since when is there a wall in the middle of the hallway?
I looked up and saw Scorpius. "Watched where you're going, Weasley." I scowled and he offered me his hand. I was so shocked I froze. He rolled his eyes and grabbed my hand, helping me to my feet. I stared at him, confused. "Forgive a guy for trying to be courteous," He huffed and then raised an eyebrow at me. He reached behind me and once again I couldn't move. He yanked out my hair elastic and then handed it back to me.
"You look much better with those pretty red locks down, luv." He turned around and walked down the stairs, leaving me confused and lightly flustered.
Shacking my head I snapped out of whatever trance I was in. I quickly ran down the stairs, cursing Malfoy in my head.
