Perfect

The brown locks covered part of his face at times, but it couldn't hide his laugh, his smile, the flashes of emerald eyes.

Scorpius adored everything about him, he was everything that Scorpius could hope for, and everything Scorpius could only ever wish to have.

Sadly, their eyes rarely met, emerald never connected with grey. Albus hardly noticed him, hardly ever glanced his way on purpose.

It was actually his one wish. A wish that Albus would finally notice, finally look at the Slytherin in the eye, finally get that Scorpius was there… not just Hugo's shadow… and to the Weasley and Potter family's shock, Hugo's best friend…

Maybe, someday, it would happen. Maybe, the impossible would happen, his deepest dreams, darkest wishes, would come to pass… if only it would come true, if only Albus would just glance at him in the eyes…

A flash of long blond hair joined his perfect brunette, and Scorpius gripped the table to keep himself from shaking.

If only the bloody idiot would stop flirting with the girls long enough to turn his bloody head and actually look at him…

"What are you thinking about?" Hugo asked him, breaking Scorpius' thoughts in a flash.

"Ahh!" Scorpius toppled over, barely catching himself from landing flat on his face. "Hugo! What was that for? You bloody scared me, idiot!"

"Oh, shut it. You wouldn't want your precious Albus to hear you cussing like that, now would you?" Hugo replied, and Scorpius could detect a little jealousy in his voice. But why would Hugo be jealous?

"Humph." Scorpius pouted, and stuck out his tongue at his friend as soon as Hugo turned away.

"I can see you, you know. You're acting extremely childish today, Scorpius, what happened? Saw my cousin kiss one too many girls for your liking?"

Scorpius blushed and turned away. "…"

"Well, why don't you confess already? He'll never know you like him until you say something to him. He's extremely dense, you know." Hugo stated with a roll of his eyes trying to hide something from Scorpius.

"I can't really talk to him… Six years and I still haven't even said hello properly…" Scorpius muttered darkly, cursing his shy side.

"That's not completely true, when he see's me with you, you guys sort of say hi." Hugo replied as they got up from the table.

"Nodding to each other is not hi, especially when he doesn't even look at me…" Scorpius said mournfully.

"…" Hugo shook his head in defeat. "Come on, we haven't gone to see Hagrid in ages."

Scorpius nodded, following closely behind Hugo as the left the castle and treaded down the path to Hagrid's cabin.

Why couldn't Albus just like him? Why couldn't Scorpius open his mouth whenever they were in a close proximity to each other?

Scorpius was so absorbed in his thoughts that he really wasn't paying attention to the ground in front of his feet. And naturally, he tripped, and collided against Hugo's back, which was broader then Scorpius' back.

"Wha..?" Hugo tried to balance himself out again but the force from Scorpius tripping was too much and they tumbled down the path a little ways, and somehow, Hugo had managed to grab Scorpius, wrapping his arms around him so that his friend wouldn't get hurt.

When came to a stop, Hugo held on to Scorpius.

"Are you all right?" Scorpius asked worriedly. "I'm sorry I didn't meant to do that…"

Hugo groaned and let go of Scorpius to push himself up. "Its alright, it was an accident and I only got a few scrapes and bruises, nothing to worry about. How about you?"

"I'm fin-" Scorpius tried to get up but his ankle gave a painful throb and he sat back down with a gasp. Of course he had to hurt his ankle…

"What's wrong?" Hugo asked, leaning over Scorpius.

"… I twisted my ankle…" Scorpius muttered with a wince.

"Idiot…" Hugo shook his head and stood up. "Come on, I'll take you to the infirmary."

"Wait!" Scorpius semi-yelled and Hugo scooped him up. "… Don't drop me…"

"I'm not going to drop you. Remember, I'm stronger then you." Hugo chuckled as Scorpius grumbled.

"Why don't you just levitate me? Wouldn't that be easier?" Scorpius asked, gritting his teeth as his ankle gave another painful throb.

"No, I'm still kind of dizzy and I don't want to accidentally toss you fifty feet away." Hugo replied as he walked carefully through the path and up to the castle.

"… I wouldn't like that…" Scorpius said through gritted teeth.

"Exactly… now hush, I need to concentrate on where I step." Hugo said calmly making his way up the steps and into the castle.

"Why not just get Hagrid? If you really need to concentrate on walking, you really shouldn't be carrying me…" Scorpius muttered.

"If you want me to drop you right here, I will."

"…"

"I thought so." Hugo smirked. "We're almost there anyways, so quit complaining."

"Anything to keep your hands on me." Scorpius said then winced again.

"Of course." Hugo winked just before they walked into the infirmary.

Scorpius blinked in shock. He'd been joking… but Hugo had sounded serious… No, not possible. He was just imagining things… Wasn't he?

"Hugo! What happened?" A voice that Scorpius recognized immediately, sounded from in front of them.

"We just had a little trip down the path, we'll be fine." Hugo replied with out even glancing over at his cousin as he rushed past him, shutting the door behind him with a kick of his foot. It slammed right on a gapping Albus and the girl he had been holding hands with. Hugo had never brushed him off like that before, even Scorpius was a little surprised about that.

"Do you want me to help?" Albus could be heard through the door.

"Nah, just stay with your girlfriend."

Scorpius couldn't help but gap, wide eyed, at his best friend with surprise. He was completely ignoring his t-winging ankle in favor of staring the Hugo.

"Umm, Hugo?" Scorpius finally managed to utter.

"Yes, Scorpius?" Hugo asked with a smirk.

"When did you become so cool? Isn't it supposed to be me that's cool one? What with me being older?" Scorpius rambled on before realizing he sounded stupid and shut his mouth tight.

"You think I'm cool?" Hugo asked smugly. "Perfect. I'm glad you told me that, I might just have a chance then."

"What chance? A chance for what?" Scorpius asked confused.

Instead of answering, Hugo leaned down and gave Scorpius a kiss on the lips.

Scorpius was shocked, he couldn't even get a word out.

"Now you know." Hugo smirked.
