Hi guys! Bella here! This is written for the Pairing Competition. The prompts I used were:
It wasn't the best way to start a day...
As I woke up with a start, realizing that I was late. It was 12:30! LATE! Nope! This couldn't be happening! As my mind went into overdrive, filled with terror, I ploughed on my clothes. Then, the girls came laughing into the room.
"Oh, you fell for it, Lily! Haha!" laughed out Roxanne. My cousin. The prankster.
"Oh my Merlin,. Rox! Rose, how could you let her do this?"
"I didn't really want to." said Rose, winking. She was the only person that knew about me and Scorpius apart from... well, me and Scorpius. She knew I had that mega date today!
"Urgh, I'd better get dressed... I look like a slob." I said, and the girls left. It was only then I realized how cold I felt. Not to mention I looked like some kind of insect. I dressed in my favourite clothes, a red top and skirt, and added a red bow. Then, I went downstairs.
"Behind you!"
I turned around and caught the chocolate bar that was heading my way.
"I'm sorry, Lily. Take it a an apology present." said Rox.
I bit into the chocolate bar only for my vision to become blurry. Next thing I knew, my eyes swam with tears.
"What the hell, Rox?!"
"Sorry, sorry. My dad is testing them at the shop and I needed to check they worked."
"Urgh. You've ruined my mascara."
"Here..." she uttered a spell, and the tears went and my makeup fixed itself.
"If you don't mind, I'm going. I'll be late. I've got a date to attend." Damn. I didn't mean to say that. There went my careful mask. Flash. Gone.
"Ohh, a date! With who? Where? Tell, tell, tell!"
"You won't like it..."
"C'mon, it's not like he's Scorpius Malfoy! Right?"
"..."
"OH MY MERLIN!"
"Damn."
"Hey, at least you've found love, Mrs. MALFOY!"
"Rox! Shut it! No one else can know, okay? Only Rose knows."
"Of course!"
"Good girl..."
And then, Charlotte came downstairs. She was green with envy. She liked Scor. And she's heard every detail. Damn.
I ran out of the common room, only to bowl head first into Scor.
"In a rush?"
I never got to answer. Because his lips were pressing to mine. Whatever crap I had to deal with later, it was worth it, just for this moment.
