Disclaimer-J.K Rowling is the owner of Harry Potter. I'm just fan writing about her characters.
So this is my next story, the first being 'A Future' that I've just completed, so feel free to check it out. This story plot came to me when I was writing a chapter for that story. I hope you guys like it. The first four chapters will be each moment Scorpius notices Lily over the four years. The story will really begin two weeks after Scorpius' first day of his sixth year.
Chapter 1-Lil Luney Potter
Scorpius- Year three Lily- Year one
The blonde haired boy sitting at the Slytherin table laughed hysterically as his friends jokes. He wasn't a stranger to the Slytherin table having come from a long line of Slytherin alumni. Not that it made him different from his house mates. No, every student sitting at the tables were descendants of some great Slytherin graduate. It was like a family gathering at their table. The Slytherin table liked to believe that they were the home to the richest and most loyal purebloods. Even the blond haired third year thought Salazar Slytherin would be proud of such a worthy lot.
As worthy as they saw themselves, the other houses disagreed strongly with their views. Once more, this was a normal attitude between the houses. The hatred towards the Slytherin house sprung about decades before the students in the Grand Hall were born. The Gryffindors who valued bravery, nerve and chivalry strongly despised the Slytherin's ambitious attitudes. The Hardworking, patient, honest and loyal Hufflepuffs frowned upon Slytherin's cunning ways. The Ravenclaws, known for their intelligence, creativity, learning and wit disapproved of the Slytherin's leadership and resourcefulness. Leaving the Slytherin house the most despised house at Hogwarts.
The Slytherin table resumed their banter throughout dinner only ever silencing for the headmaster to allow the sorting of the new students.
"Your sister is a first year Zabini?" Scott Flint asked with a smirk on his face. Marcus Zabini scowled at Scott.
"She's pretty. I hope she's a Slytherin." Scott winked at Marcus. The three boys laughed at Marcus while the other just looked at the scene with an amused expression on his face.
"Flint, I'll happily take a trip to Askaban if it means killing you for calling my sister pretty in front of me." Marcus clenched his fist. Scott held his hands up in surrender but kept smirking at him.
"Zabini you wouldn't last ten seconds with those dementors." Scorpius snorted. He'd found the ruse between the two boys hilarious. It was moments like these he'd thanked Salazar his parents hadn't any more children. He was content with being the only heir to the Malfoy family.
"Shows what you know Malfoy, I'm telling you I'd last much longer than pathetic Higgs over there." Zabini retorted and Trey Higgs threw a roll at him.
"Why do you always have to bring me into these barmy discussions Zabini? Besides why isn't Scott picking on Goyle? He's got twin sisters up there with those first years."
Goyle stopped sniggering and frowned at Trey, "Don't bring my sisters into this. I didn't say anything when Flint's little brother came last year. Besides what about Malfoy? He's got his cousin this year as well. What's her name? Ella Davies is it?"
Scorpius glared at Goyle, "Her name is Bella. I wouldn't expect you to understand pronunciation Goyle considering your parents were too illiterate to get you a teacher when you were younger. I sympathize with your lack of comprehension."
Goyle growled, "I should knock those words back in your mouth Malfoy!"
Scorpius just shrugged, "I'd like to see you try Goyle." Goyle clenched his teeth and slowly reeled up his robes.
"You losers, calm down! Merlin, people might think we're conspiring against someone if you guys continue with your childish banter!" Higgs hissed.
Flint cocked his eyebrow up at Trey, "Aren't we conspiring against someone Higgs?"
Higgs sighed, "Yeah but we'll get those Potter and Weasley bastards later. We can't be making plans in the open especially when those Gryffindor losers are just an earshot away."
Zabini growled, "Leave James for me. I want to wipe that wretched smirk off his face for turning my hair red last week."
Flint almost broke his glass at the sound of James' name. "I'll be happy to assist you with that Zabini. The loser put something in my cauldron yesterday in Potions and caused the entire thing blow up in my face. I'd like to blow him up so he'd see how it feels!"
"Can I have your attention? It's time for Hogwarts annual sorting ceremony!" shouted Professor Skively. She was the Arithmancy professor. Scorpius was certain he wasn't going to take the class. It was a rather useless subject and he wasn't about to spend the entire year being taught by her. Her messy attire was the most tolerable thing about her. Scorpius always found her to be overly enthusiastic even for a professor.
"First years when I call your name, step up and sit on the stool. Once the hat has sorted you please take a seat at the house table you've been sorted into. Understood?"
Scorpius noticed how the Grand Hall had silenced and nobody was moving except for the first years. His eyes kept on his cousin Bella. He was uneasy with idea of her being anywhere else but Slytherin. None of the other houses were good enough for her. She was a pure blood and his cousin. He wouldn't stand the humiliation of her ending up in Hufflepuff or Ravenclaw or worse Gryffindor, where bravery is synonymous to stupidity.
"Kasey Chang" Professor Skively called. Scorpius turned his head from the sorting and rolled his eyes when the Sorting hat shouted "Ravenclaw" and the Ravenclaw table broke into applause. The rest of the sorting for him was highly predictable. He'd only turned to the sorting when Zabini's sister, Krista Zabini went on the stool and was declared a Slytherin and when Goyle's twin sisters Arteza and Arteya were also sorted into Slytherin.
Scorpius was busy laughing with Higgs when he heard, "Bella Davies." He spun around quickly and he saw her look up to him for moment. He gave her a quick smile and she nodded. She sat on the stool and the hat was placed on her head. It seemed like the sorting hat was taking forever to sort her and his anxiety was over the edge.
"SLYTHERIN!" he heard it shout and Scorpius smirked as Bella dashed down to the Slytherin table.
"I thought you were going to pop Malfoy! If that hat had taken any longer you would have fainted from lack of oxygen." Flint laughed.
"Malfoys do not faint Flint. Although I did hear an amusing rumor that Flints faint instantly to most anything that terrifies, worries or upsets them. Is this true Scott?" Scorpius smirked from the reaction he was getting from Flint. Scott and Marcus were fourth years while Trey, Greg and he were third years. Scorpius knew the type of power he had at the Slytherin table and he took full advantage of it.
"LILY POTTER!" Skively screamed. Scorpius spun around immediately. He saw the wistful looking red haired girl bounce happily up to the hat. She smiled weirdly up at the hat.
"I didn't know the Potter's had a little sister?" Higgs mentioned and Flint slapped him across his head.
"Nobody knew you big dolt. Haven't you noticed the shocked expressions on everybody's face?"
"She looks a little mental doesn't she?" Zabini laughed. Scorpius smirked as he watched the Potter's frown up at him and his table.
"GRYFFINDOR!" the hat shouted.
Higgs snorted, "So obvious! Where else is a Potter supposed to go? I'm sure Harry Potter would kill that hat if he knew his precious daughter was placed anywhere else but the charming and 'brave' house of Gryffindor. The house where only the noblest of witches and wizards are made. How pathetic!"
Goyle sneered, "More like the house where the stupidest and utterly mental wizards are made famous because their idiocy is seen as heroic."
Scorpius laughed, "I'd have to say that was the most intelligent thing I've ever heard you say Goyle."
Goyle smiled at him but frowned when he caught on to Scorpius' comment. Scorpius looked at the girl again and frowned. What a pathetic excuse of a first year! He turned back to his table and continued enjoying the pleasure of being back at school with his friends.
Scorpius had stayed behind in the Grand Hall to speak with Professor Morris, his Potions professor. He was heading out of the Grand Hall when he tripped on something. He growled. His eyes came upon robes and he realized he tripped on a person.
"Are you mental? Sitting on the ground like that could injure somebody!" he shouted and he saw the red-haired girl. The precious little daughter of Harry Potter. The girl blushed.
"I'm sorry. I was just reading. I couldn't remember how to get to the Gryffindor Tower so I decided to read."
"So you're reading on the floor? Have you lost your senses?"
The girl shook her head, "No, I don't practically think so. It's just reading on the ground enhances your creativity by ten percent. Besides I heard the cold keeps the Heliopaths away. This spot is particularly cold and it seems to be working. Do you see any Heliopaths?"
Scorpius puckered his brow in confusion, "A Helio what?"
The girl stood up and smiled, "It's a spirit of fire which gallops and burns anything in its path."
Scorpius stared at the girl in disbelief. She pulled out these large colorful spectacles and put them on her face.
"It was nice meeting you Scorpius Malfoy."
"I didn't say my name." he frowned.
She smiled weirdly at him, "I've heard loads about you. The stories couldn't possibly be true. You look nothing like a troll. Although I've heard trolls are mysterious creatures. I heard a theory that they could take various shapes if they wanted. I suppose you're much too proper to be a troll."
Scorpius growled, "I suppose your thick headed brothers told you I was a troll? I don't expect much from Potters, you metal girl!"
The girl just kept smiling, "You're ignorant to a lot of things Scorpius. I suppose it has a lot to do with the many wrackspurts floating around your ears. You should be more open to things Scorpius."
Scorpius was too shocked to reply. The mental girl sent him a wide smile before she turned around and skipped down the hall. He shook his head. No wonder the Potter's hadn't mentioned a sister. He'd be embarrassed as well if he'd had a sister as mental as she was. He supposed she'd be little threat to him. He smirked. Maybe she could be a pawn in his little game with her brothers.
I know I probably shouldn't be writing a new fanfic but I couldn't help it...This story has been bugging me for the past two weeks now. Lily probably won't always be this weird. So tell me what you guys think.. Got any questions let me know!
