Take that bloody hood down

Pairing: Rose / Scorpius

Summary: Scorpius always walks around with his hood up. Rose doesn't not like it. You must include the saying "will you take that hood down for merlin sake, it does not make you look mysterious or sexy you just looks shy and insecure!"

Other Details: I'd like it to be a story where Scorpius likes Rose but she is in denial. Scorpius just loves to torment her and what not, but you don't have to have this you can make it whatever you want.

Prologue – the sorting

About 40 first years were lined up in front of the teachers table in the great hall, most were looking either hopeful or excited, all were nervous. Professor McGonagall held a large scroll of parchment in one hand and a stool with an old withered hat in the other, setting the stool down with the hat on top, she unrolled the parchment and began to read all about the sorting ceremony.

Scorpius wasn't listening, he had already heard about the ceremony from his mother and father, with strict instructions to be placed in Slytherin or maybe Ravenclaw, but Gryffindor and Hufflepuff were out of the question. He did begin listening when McGonagall began calling out names, to see if it was anyone he knew.

"Abbott, Jade"

"HUFFLEPUFF" figures, it was where her mum went.

"Brocklehurst, James"

"HUFFLEPUFF" interesting, someone was going to get a letter from an angry ex-Ravenclaw.

"Crabbe, Victoria" wow, that was really original, and his uncle Vincent couldn't come up with a better name? He knew his father had cut ties with him, but in all the stories his mother had told him about his father's old school friends she had never said that they were stupid.

"SLYTHERIN" Like father like daughter.

"Derwent, Olivia" That old headmistress of Hogwarts' granddaughter.

"GRYFFINDOR"

"Edgecombe, Jessica" yikes, she was ugly, that girl had some serious acne problems.

"RAVENCLAW"

"Finnegan, Jesse"

"HUFFLEPUFF" ha, another angry ex-Gryffindor letter on its way.

"Goyle, George" Really? REALLY? How had he never guessed that his dad's old friends were so slow? Obviously they hadn't married smart women either.

"Hooch, Luke" That guy has the scariest eyes, like a raven.

"SLYTHERIN"

"Jordon, Fred" Sentimental Gryffindors.

"GRYFFINDOR"

"Krum, Alexander" Huh, why would he get sent here and not Durmstrang? All these people gawking at him.

"RAVENCLAW"

"Longbottom, Cho" ooh, blue vs. red. What will it be?

"GRYFFINDOR" and the red wins out.

"Malfoy, Scorpius" and up he goes.

Hmm, interesting, you've got a nice bit of courage, some definite smarts, and I see a lot of loyalty here, but what's this? I don't think I've ever seen such a cunning mind, I don't think there's any competition on where you should go.

"SLYTHERIN" aw, yeah. Scorpius strutted over to the Slytherin table to join Luke and Victoria.

"Nott, Madeline" Another one of his dad's old friends.

"RAVENCLAW"

"Potter, Albus" ugh, just what the school needs, ANOTHER Potter.

"HUFFLEPUFF" ha.

"Scamander, Lorcan" what a hippie, wasn't he those two weirdo naturalist's son?

"RAVENCLAW" huh

"Thomas, Kyle" Thomas, wasn't his dad friends with Potter?

"GRYFFINDOR"

"Vane, Beth" oh, the stories his mum told her about her mum.

"SLYTHERIN" Hmm, guess we'll see if she is anything like her mum.

"Weasley, Rose" Oh, lord, not the Weasleys, why do they bother putting on the sorting hat, everyone knows they're going to go to…

"GRYFFINDOR" what. a. shocker.

"Zabini, Jace" ANOTHER one of his dad's friends, had they all just had children in the same year?

"SLYTHERIN"

And it was all over. McGonagall was giving a speech on rules but Scorpius wasn't paying attention, he had introduced himself to Victoria, Luke, Beth and Jace, but now his focus was on the Weasley girl, Rose.

She had also made introductions and was now paying rapt attention to McGonagall.

Like mother, like daughter.

She had inherited her father's hair, but hers wasn't flaming red, but more of a pretty auburn colour, and it wasn't as wild as her mothers, whose hair was somewhat of a legend at Hogwarts. She had also lucked out of having too many freckles, just a small cluster on her nose and cheek bones.

All in all she was quite pretty.

Uh-oh.

A/N- This is just the first chapter and I realize I lack a lot of originality, so most of Scorpius' comments on people's names and where they've been placed are really just my way of making fun of myself. Especially when he notes how almost everyone in their year have parents who were in the same year, which stems from my inability to think of surnames.

I was hoping to have a surname for every letter of the alphabet that came from an original Harry Potter character but no one's surname starts with an I or X, and as for O, Q, R, U and Y, Ollivander is a bit too old to have children and I don't think the Yaxleys, Quirrells, Riddles or Umbridges are having any children.

Also I will get to the whole hood thing but not till about chapter 3-ish.

I'm off to do my English homework.

Reviews please.
