This was never how I planned to spend my nineteenth birthday. Whenever I thought of birthday's they always came paired with alcohol and a good time. Well that was what I thought of since I had my first drink at the sweet and innocent age of thirteen. Ever since then I guess you could say thinks have spiraled out of control.
At Hogwart's I had always been the first one to be found passed out the next morning in some stranger's bed. I am the complete opposite of my parents and everyone knows it. Ever since I was small I would look at them and go sure you have a nice life, but it's boring. I vowed to always live in the moment and to never regret. Whatever happens, happens for a reason is my motto.
Back to my unexpected birthday night. I'm sitting here in a very nice hotel room. The carpet is quite plush and the bed is absolutely divine. On the bed is a tray of strawberries and a bowl of whipping cream and I can only imagine what is going to happen with them. He always has such creative and exotic ideas. When I had walked in the room I had noticed a new piece of lacy black lingerie. Knowing he would want to see me in it I stripped down and hid my clothes in the closet.
Just as I was lying down in a seductive pose on the bed the lock turned and the door creaked open and in walked the most amazing guy I had ever seen. His features would so perfect they looked as if they were chiseled by hand. His hair so white and those beautiful full eyes that I knew I could get so easily lost in. They were arguably his best and his worst features.
He sauntered over to the edge of the bed and handed me a large bouquet of deep red roses, my favorite. After inhaling their beautiful scent I placed them on the bedside table and pulled him down on top of me. To my delight I noticed that his robe was the only piece of clothing he wore besides his boxer shorts.
"Happy Birthday Rose," he whispered in my ear.
It was enough to send shivers up my spine and I replied, "Why thank you Malfoy."

Scorpius and I becoming friends was an unkind bit of fate. It was no secret that our families hated each other and when we ran into each other at a party in our fifth year, both of us drunk beyond what we should have been things just fell into place. After that we did a little while of the friend's with benefits thing but that never worked out. In the end we realized that the best thing for us was to be party buddies as he so nicely described it.
We were the only two in the school that could down an unreasonable amount of alcohol and still stay standing and coherent. That wasn't to say that that's what always occurred. On more than one occasion I woke up beside him in bed.
It was no secret, he was the sex god of the school and I was what some girls called a slut-I say they are just jealous-and others, mainly my buds say I'm just having fun.
The first time I went over to his house was the summer after our sixth year. Scorpius and I hung out and stole a bottle of his father's hard liquor. That was the first time I talked to him. He had walked into the drawing room where we were lounging and saw me sprawled across one of the leather sofas with the half full bottle in my hand. He looked from me to Scorpius and then back to me. He raised his perfect eyebrows and said, "Never thought I'd see the day."
"Yeah well," I shrugged.
That was all he said but I didn't expect anything more. Honestly I was relieved that he didn't throw me out when he realized who I was.
I didn't see him again until the Christmas Break.
There was a banquet at the ministry, a fancy dress ball I guess you could call it. Of course as soon as my Mom and Dad had turned I snuck away in search of some real fun. My first stop was the bar. Once I had a drink in my hand I felt much better. Without it I always felt empty. On my way to find some interesting people-people who didn't talk about politics and the latest crises in Germany regarding a set of flying carpets that somehow manage to get loose and suffocate a small muggle child while he was playing some sort of muggle game in his back garden-I wandered through the deserted halls of the hotel. When I rounded the corner I saw the man that I had been thinking about since that day he had walked in on Scorpius and I.
"Hello Mr. Malfoy," I greeted him with a cool nod.
"Shouldn't you be back at the party, a pretty girl like you? Not out roaming looking for trouble."
"Trouble is what I live for," I said simply.
He gave me a knowing look and said, "I thought that too when I was your age."
We stood in silence for a minute to long. When we began talking again he pointed at my drink and said, "Seems like every time I see you, you have a drink in your hand."
"You've only seen me twice, I don't think that gives you the right to comment on my alcohol consumption. But yes I do usually have on close by."
"I'd watch it if I were you. It can come back to haunt you in your later years."
Only when he took a step towards me did I realize how far we were from other people. Without a second thought I closed the space between us and had my arms wrapped around his waist. Some people say he has lost his beauty now that he's aged. As I looked up at his face I drank in the fine features and came to the conclusion that they were entirely wrong. Age had only made him more elegant. I could sense him moving closer still to me. My body responded and my lips were on his.
Wow the Malfoy boys really know how to impress a lady. I had thought Scorpius was good but he was no comparison to his father. We broke away when we heard footsteps coming down the corridor. Quickly I brushed myself off and said, "Why thank you Mr. Malfoy for that fine explanation of the…"
"Father?"
I spun around and saw Scorpius striding towards us.
"What?" he snapped.
"Mother's looking for you. She says the party is a complete bore and she's leaving and you would do well to follow her lead."
"Tell your Mother I'll see her at home."
"Rose," Scorpius nodded in my direction and I nodded in return.
Once we were alone again I turned to him and said, "I'd like to see a bit more of your work sometime. If that could be arranged?"
"I'll write," he promised.
"Good. Goodnight," and I turned on my chic spiked heels and padded away. Right before I turned the corner I looked back and saw a playful smirk on his face. I returned it with a small wave and a smile of my own.
Tonight I got more than I bargained for. This was going to be fun.

a/n well I didn't intent for her to be so much of an alcoholic and I really didn't plan to write in this tense. I'm going to see what I can do with the next chapters to get it into an easier tense to write with. This form only will allow me to write 1 or 2 more chapter and I want to write more. So don't get to upset if you notice a change. I won't change this chapter because it was the only way I could get the whole introduction across.
Please review. Thank you so much. Good ones are always nice but flames help me out. They tell me how I can improve. So remember if you have anything you dislike and want me to work on please feel free to tell me thank you.
