So, I wrote this for The 'Taylor Swift' Challenge- Love and Heartbreak in HPFC. My characters were Lily Luna Potter and Scorpius Malfoy, and my song was Speak Now. Hope you like it!

I carefully followed my brother James as he ran through the snow, laughing with Teddy Lupin, throwing snowballs. I had to stifle a laugh as one hit James straight in the face, immediately hating myself for almost giving myself away. I followed the two of them all the way to Malfoy Manor, than left them at the gate. I slipped around the house to the large, wall length window in the parlor. I positioned myself in the bottom corner, where Scorpius and I had discovered that no one could see you unless they were looking for you.
I watched as Teddy and James joined the crowd in the parlor, smiling and shaking snow at people. Draco and Astoria ignored them, but Hugo was overjoyed, throwing the snow back at them. I looked to the side and saw Uncle Ron dressed in a white suit with a pastel pink tie that matched Aunt Mione's dress perfectly.
Suddenly, Rose Weasly appeared from nowhere, coming out of a back room. She was wearing a pale yellow dress that reminded me of the pastries my Mum would bake for me, in shape and color. "James! Teddy! Thank you so much for coming!" She went up and hugged them both, although her large skirts made it almost impossible. "But where are Al and Lily?"
"Mum made them stay at home," James said, grinning madly. "Lily wasn't too happy about it, but Al didn't care."
Well, he was right. I wasn't happy about staying home, so I came here to find out what all the fuss is about.
"So, will the two of you be there?" Rose's voice brought me back to earth.
"Of course, Rose." Teddy grinned slightly. "We wouldn't miss your wedding for anything! Especially the bride of Scorpius Malfoy's wedding!"
I gasped and stumbled away from the window, my mind reeling. Rose was marring Scorp. I should have known. They had been dating ever since they left Hogwarts, madly in love. Or at least that's what it looked like to others- and to Scorpius. I was the only one who saw how disposable Scorpius was to her, how little she really cared about him.
I was also the only one that knew who Scorpius preferred- me. Whenever he and Rose fought, which was a lot, might I add, he would come to me, and I would comfort him, tell him how to make her happy, saying the things I wanted from him. He would return to her, and using my advice, gain back her trust. I now wish I had never helped him.
But I knew the Rose was bad for Scorpius, and I would save him from marrying her. Somehow, I would save him from this horrible fate. I started to walk home, then ran, no plan in my head.
