Scorpius Malfoy walked down one of the lengthy corridors in Malfoy Manor. He was running from the obnoxious New Year's Eve party that his family family threw every year. This year the theme was "Masquerade.". This was the first year that Scorpius was allowed to stay the entire night for he was now 17. Scorpius slowed down as he came to a window with a seat big enough room to sit on but the seat was already taken by a beautiful young girl with a mask that covered the top half of her face.
"What is a beautiful girl like you doing hiding away?" Scorpius asked the ginger girl with deep brown eyes.
"Maybe I enjoy being tracked down by incredibly handsome boys." The girl said with a playful smirk on her face. She could be no older than fifteen.
"I appreciate you finding me hot." Scorpius replied in a playful tone.
"I appreciate your appreciation." The girl laughed out. Her laugh was gorgeous, like the sound of silver bells on Christmas Eve.
"But really, why are you hiding?" Scorpius asked.
"I don't know anyone. My dad's coworker is holding this party." Of course her dad was here. Just Scorpius's luck.
"Well now you know me." Scorpius said while taking the girl's hand.
"That makes this night a million times better." She laughed. Scorpius turned her to face him then brushed a strand of her fire red hair behind her ear.
"Glad to know I was able to make you happy." Scorpius smiled down at her. He didn't know her name but yet he was intrigued by her. It was like love at first sight. They sat in silence for a moment. The girl's head on Scorpius's shoulder and his head on top of her's.
"It's almost midnight." The girls sighed.
"Are you due back to your parents? Would you like me to escort you back?" Scorpius asked quickly.
"Oh no it's all right, they know I'll probably meet them after midnight by where we came in." She smiled.
"Okay." They sat there staring deeply into each other's eyes. "My lady, may I say just something?" Scorpius asked.
"Of course sir."
"After this evening I will never forget that red hair that is as bright as a fire. Or your eyes, that remind me so much of milk chocolate. But most of all I will never forget the cherry red lips I wish I could have kissed."
"A kiss on the first date? How informal!" The girl chided in a mocking tone.
"I know, but I can't seem to shake the feeling that I need to know you better. And with one kiss I know I will feel the sparks and then I will lose you forever, unless it's our destiny to see each other again."
"Ah, I see. Well if you must." The girl whispered before planting her lips upon Scorpius's who responded instantly. Scorpius felt that spark he knew he would feel. After a minute they pulled apart and stared deeply into each other's eyes.
"I knew I would feel something." Scorpius laughed and so did the girl. "You really are beautiful."
"Thank you." She whispered. Just then a chorus of people counting down from ten filled the mansion. At the last second Scorpius and the girl kissed again and that kiss lasted for the first two minutes of the New Year.
"Happy New Year." The girl whispered and then turned to leave. Scorpius grabbed hold of her wrist.
"Please, tell me your name." He begged.
"Lily Potter." She said loudly then as Scorpius dropped her wrist she ran away from him.
"I just fell in love with a girl I am supposed to hate." Scorpius said to no one but himself.
So this was based off a script I had to write for English class, my version of how Romeo and Juliet met with different characters and setting. Me and my friend got a bit creative and wrote this! I may continue this with one or two more chapters, but first I need reviews!
