"Al? He's still terrible."

"Hmm… bad case of spattergroit, after all."

"But of course it's stupid!"

"Hey! That's mean!"

"Why? I thought you were the smartest witch in our year!"

"I am. So? That doesn't mean that I can't crush on people… or maybe feel more. And then be crushed when they don't have feleings for me"

"Quoting me back to me doesn't make it any less cheesy Rose."

"I know."

'So- up for an official Hogsmeade date with the amazing Scorpius Malfoy, then? Just you and me?"

"Yeah- just you and me!"

"In this case, quoting me makes it all the more amazing!"

"Again, I know!"
