Why? Why must that insufferable Slytherin have to be the one I love?
This all started back in 4th year. I should've just stayed home, away from Hogwarts, away from Scorpius Malfoy.
Day 1
"Rose! Get your trunk and let's go! You're going to miss the train!" My mum yelled.
"I'm coming! I'm coming! No need to have a cow! It's only 8:45!" I yell back.
"Rose, did I ever tell you about when Harry and I miss-" My dad starts.
"-ed the train, and you flew Grandpa's car to school, where you nearly got expelled? Yeah, you told me."
"Oh, well then…" My dad's kind of awkward that way, "But still! The lesson is: Don't miss the train."
"Yeah, yeah, whatev."
"Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning, now didn't they?" My dear, dear little brother has now arrived.
"Shut up, Hugo." I give him my warning look, which I hear is rather close to my mother's. Whether it's a good thing or not is a mystery.
Hugo rolls his eyes at me.
Now, I'm normally not this much of a bitch, but I didn't get much sleep last night. I was thinking. I've been doing much more of that, lately. You know. Thinking of things like life and stuff.
I must have picked up the awkward trait from dad. Ugh.
"Weasley!"
"BF!"
"Boyfriend? Cause, you know I'm fine with that, but shouldn't go on a date first?"
I slapped that Scorpius Malfoy.
"I've got a new nickname for you! My dad was telling me about your dad, you see, and BF stands for Baby Ferret. See? Your dad's a ferret, and you're his baby!"
Scorpius glares at me.
"It's better than Stinger, you got to admit!" I say
"Yeah, how did you come up with that?" Scorpius replies.
"Scorpius is like a scorpion, and scorpions have stingers, right?"
I guess we were just friends back then.
