AN: I'm not sure if this should be a crossover but I'm just posting this here by default. I got this idea watching comedy central tonight :P Let me know what y'all think… especially of the special guest stars ;)
Lily Luna Potter glared at her brother and his best friend as they apparated behind her with a crack and a pop. She loved her brother, but why he and his git of a friend had decided to tag along on her training mission was beyond her.
'You're not even in the Department of Mysteries, Al'
"Hey, it wasn't my idea. I had to tag along to make sure you didn't accidentally kill Scor. Wouldn't want to haul my own sister to Azkaban" Albus Potter raised his hands defensively. Lily had her grandmother's temper and her father and grandfather's talent for creative hexes. Why Scorpius had chosen to incur her wrath so many times while they were at Hogwarts was beyond him. Albus felt that part of his speed could be attributed to the number of times he had had to run to the hospital wing with his friend's homework.
'And YOU… you don't even WORK in the ministry! What the bloody hell does a curse breaker need to know how to go undercover for?' Lily's hazel eyes flashed at the tall blond standing behind her, ignoring the slight thump in her chest as she looked up into those stormy grey eyes.
Scorpius Malfoy couldn't control the tiny smirk forming on his lips. The way her hazel eyes flashed never failed to evoke a reaction from him. Even when he had met her on the train in his second year, Albus Potter's sister had been levitating Crabbe for bullying her friend. He'd known then that she was something special, unfortunately being his best mate's sister had made her off limits to him. It didn't stop him from hexing/fighting every boy that got near her while they were at Hogwarts, though.
"I had to keep an eye on you, Potter. Who knows what these big, bad American muggles would do to the littlest Potter?" Scorpius knew he was asking to be hexed, but he also knew part of her training was to live without magic and blend in with the muggles for a month. He was counting on the fact that landing her dream job meant more to her than turning him into a chicken (which she had done in her third year at Hogwarts, anyway). Sure enough, Lily narrowed her hazel eyes and clenched her fists.
'You're bloody lucky I can't use my wand, Malfoy'
"Besides" he whispered in her ear "Albus hadn't been taking the breakup with Sophie very well. I thought a month in a different country would do him good"
Lily looked up in surprise. She had always known Scorpius to be a good friend to her brother – which was why it always surprised her when he bullied Xander and the other Gryffindor boys at school. She hadn't realized, however, that there could have been an altruistic motive to Scorpius' insistent medding in her life (this time at least). She turned and looked at her brother. Albus Potter was handsome as usual, but there was a slight sadness in his grin. His green eyes seemed to lack that usual spark of mischief. Not for the first time that week, Lily Potter cursed Sophia Creevey. That social climber had glommed on to Al the minute they left Hogwarts, and catching her in bed with Eric Finnigan had been difficult for him, to say the least. Leaning forward, she gave her brother a hug.
'You deserved way better than her, anyway. She just got her second nose job'
"Second nose job? She's only had one" Albus was suspicious. Lily's friend Hannah at the healing academy had (somewhat gleefully) told him of the first time his girlfriend had gone in for plastic surgery (apparently the minute she was of age). He hadn't heard of any new procedures, however.
'Oh, this wasn't cosmetic… she actually needed it. You'll find her at St. Mungo's if you want to go laugh in her face or something'
"She.. needed it?" Scorpius Malfoy was holding back a laugh. Knowing Lily Potter as he did, Scorpius had a pretty good idea of what had happened to the girl. Even Albus was trying to look strict as he fought the grin that was slowly forming on his face.
The three teenagers, adults in the wizarding world, walked towards a large, empty building.
"It looks like the silver trio's back in action" Albus Potter turned towards his sister and best friend with a slight smile on his face. Since leaving Hogwarts, and rushing into his disastrous relationship with Sophia, Albus hadn't spent much time with either. When his sister joined the ministry, he had been hoping to see more of her, but her first round of training had her stationed in Colorado for a month. It had taken a lot of arguing and arm twisting to get his superiors to give him a month off to accompany his sister, but he supposed having his father as the head of his department helped. That and apprehending that crazy death eater wannabe last week. He was proving his worth to the department, and they were willing to give him whatever he needed to keep him.
Scorpius Malfoy turned towards the girl next to him and smiled. Her red gold hair glinted in long waves cascading down her back. She shivered slightly from the chill, as he instinctively put his arm around her shoulders. With his distinctive Malfoy smirk, he spoke softly, "Well, tomorrow we'll find out if South Park High School is ready for Lily Luna Potter"
AN: Review please For reference: Lily is 18 in this story, Scor and Al are 19. She's just finished Hogwarts and started training at her new job.
