Prompt of the day:

Tuesday 4th May= Listen


"I'll miss you."

"Me too." He gave me a kiss farewell.

It was time to go back to King's Cross the next morning, another school year has ended. I'll come back next September as a 5th year, but I don't care about that now, all I care about is him, and how in the world he'll meet my family.


"Lily? Someone sent you an Owl Post." my mum called from down the stairs.

"Ginny, what is this?" my dad seemed to say that from the kitchen.

"It's my home-made soup. My first try, don't comment." and I heard my dad's chuckles. "Lily?"

"Come in, mum." I was just brushing my hair on my bed, when my mum opened the door of the attic and gave me an Owl Post. I read the words written on the envelope, and my heart skipped a beat. 'Dear Lily Luna, your dearest blonde guy friend.' Scorpius? I'm pretty sure it was him. Who else is blonde and is willing to send me an owl post just a few days after the holiday started? Maybe one of the Scamander twins, but I somehow know it's him; Scorpius, I mean.

"Hm?" my mum raised her eyebrows when not a word came out of my mouth.

"Well," I took the envelope from her, a little too harshly I suppose, because she flinched. I took a deep breath while opening the envelope and reading what's inside. It is from the youngest Malfoy alright.

"Who is it from, darling?" I cleared my throat before answering,

"A f-friend." I stuttered.

"I'm your mother, I know you pretty well." she smiled, and I know I couldn't lie to her.

"It's my boyfriend." I squeaked, looking away. I can feel my mum's eyes widen.

"Why, who's the lucky guy?" She beamed while sitting next to me on the bed. There was silence. "Lily?"

"Mum…" I whined. She just raised her eyebrows, one of her tricks that always works to make me speak up.

"He's a Slytherin, or if that's not bad enough, he's a Malfoy; Scorpius Malfoy. I know I should've told you earlier, but I'm just not confident enough, scared." I blabbed, eager for this confession to end. "I told Albus all about this, and James figured everything out all by himself- or in other words, he caught me snogging Scorpius Malfoy." I choked on the word 'snogging'. "James was going to tell you, or dad, but I told Albus that I will take care of it by myself, so Albus told James not to. I knew sooner or later everyone will know, or at least you would know, but I was never ready. So now you are probably going to kick me out of this house or leave me in Hogwarts as a lost child or something. You could as well leave me in the Forbidden Forest, or even-"

"Listen." my mum cut me mid-sentence.

"Mum, it's okay."

"What? No, listen Lily Luna Potter, I would never denounce you as a Potter, that's your dad's job, or my daughter. You could date a death eater, for Merlin's sake, you're still my daughter. If he loves you, then I'm okay with it." I stared blankly at her. She married Harry Potter, a hero of the wizarding world, and yet she said it's okay for me to love anyone, even a death eater, as long as they love me back. I gave her a quizzical look. "Yes, Lily, I'm sure. I love you." She hugged me, and I felt a surge of relief.

"I love you too."

"But, just in case, do you still remember the Bat-Bogey Hex I told you about?"

"Always." I smiled.

"Now I'll leave you alone then, so that you can read the letter."

"But what about dad?"

"Don't worry, I'll tell him. And if I fail, I know if Albus and James promised to take care of you, he'll understand." She stood up, and left the room. I scramble for the letter and held it in a way so that the sunlight hits it perfectly. Surreal.

'Dear my Lily Luna,

By now, it's either your sent out of your house, or feeling lightheaded because I cleared the way for you. I hope you're not in too much trouble, though.

I miss you already, and what can I say? I've been lonely without you. Dad's been throwing tantrums at me while mum's away. I miss you. Wait, did I write that already? Oh darn it, should I start over? Ahh stuff that. They should start making those earsers for inks/quills.

Anyway, I wanted to invite you over, but I'll wait until mum come's back. She'll understand us better than dad. Dad would chop you to pieces; not trying to scare you, just giving you a heads up.

Well, have an awesome holiday, will you? And don't forget me.

Love, your dear Scoripus.' I shook my head and smiled. Though still, as the Slytherin he is, cunning, he's not like what everyone thinks he is, that's why I love him.


what do you think? should I continue? first time I did a next gen fic... is it good? lol thoughts? X) ... they are very much appreciated.

edited- Lily Luna's now supposed to come back next year as a fifth year because there are some problems about her age and how she's falling in love too quickly :P
