The dawn is breaking
A light shining through
You're barely waking
And i'm tangled up in you
I'm open, you're closed
Where I follow, you'll go
I worry I won't see your face
Light up again

CHAPTER 1
SCORPIUS MALFOY
"Malfoy!" I heard Adrian shout for me, and I could feel how little I cared. I just wanted to sleep! I groaned and plunged my head into my pillow. "Malfoy!" he yelled at me, and I felt a book hit my head. Hard.
"Zabini, if you throw something else at me, I'm going to murder you!" I was grinning though. Adrian and I had known each other since we were three. Our parents were friends when they were at Hogwarts together, Father was always telling me that I should be good friends with Blaise's son. He didn't need to tell me of course, Adrian and I had got on instantly; our personalities matched. Since we met, we'd shared everything; secrets, lies, and even girls.
"Yeah yeah, you're so frightening. Come on, Malfoy, we're going to be late to breakfast and I'm goddamn starving! And put a shirt on your incredibly sexy chest." He added, winking. I laughed and threw the covers off me. I pulled a black t-shirt on and hauled on my jeans while Adrian's stomach growled. Adrian's inability to withhold hunger was pretty much legendary.
"Come on, Zabini; let's go down, what are you waiting for?" I joked, and he scowled playfully at me.
When we got down to the Great Hall, we made our way to the Slytherin table. We got a few stares from some of the other students, but that was to be expected since we were both known as the sex gods of this school. We sat down at the table and Adrian immediately started helping himself to food, piling it on his plate and stuffing it in his mouth, hardly pausing for breath. I was almost impressed he could shovel his food down so quickly without, you know, gagging. I smirked at him. I saw something in the corner of my eye, and looked up to the Gryffindor table. Rose Weasley was being talked to animatedly to her stupid cousin, Dominique. Dominique and I had an unspoken agreement; if she didn't talk to me, I wouldn't punch her in the face. God she was annoying. She was a fugly slut.
Rose, though, she was pretty hot. For a Weasley, anyway. I knew she was alright, and I knew both her uncles were great at planning practical jokes, and I also knew she had inherited that. Of course I knew that, my father went to school with them. But I knew that I couldn't like her. She was a Weasley. I couldn't be friends with her. Not that I wanted to.
Her head was always in a book; it made me laugh that she had that little of a life. My father said that her mother was a know-it-all 'Miss Perfect' as well. In fact, everytime I mentioned Rose he just went on a rant about her mom. Actually, he talks about her mom quite a lot. Issues…
I realised I was still looking at Rose and before I could turn away she realised it too. She shot me the filthiest look across the Great Hall. She even looked hot doing that.
Damn teenage hormones.
Goddamn Albus Fucking Potter saw me too. Fucking arrogant smartass. Of course, I was too, and that's why we didn't get along. There was only room for one overly arrogant wiseass in this school, and we both knew it. He thought just because he was a Potter that he could get away with being a twat. Just because his goddamn fucking father was famous didn't mean that he could go around being an ass. He didn't seem to get that his father was famous. Not him. That didn't give him a right to strut around the halls like he was some sort of hero. I'm a fucking Malfoy! Okay, so my grandfather was one of the Dark Lord's greatest supporters, but my dad wasn't. He has the Dark Mark. I know he has. But I also knew he only joined up because his parents were Death Eaters. Disgraced Death Eaters. He wanted his father to be proud of him. I knew because i knew the feeling. But he's worked long and hard to make a good reputation for the Malfoys and he's succeeded. There are still some people who practically run down the halls because they're scared of me, but that's just entertaining. I'm the badass in this school. Screw Albus Potter.
