You were Romeo

You were throwing pebbles

And my daddy said

"Stay away from Juliet!"

-Taylor Swift, Love Story


We were both young when I first saw you.


"Malfoy, Scorpius." That name intrigued me. Malfoy.

We never properly met, only my dad telling me to stay away form him.

Why should I?

After waiting, he got his house.

It was Gryffindor.

I watched him, astonished, like everyone else, as he walked to the Gryffindor table.

It was silent; everyone was too shocked to clap.

Finally James stood up and pressed his hands together, slowly. Pretty soon the whole hall was clapping, but off, not in the normal way.

As the sorting went by, new people being sorted, (Albus one of them. In Gryffindor of course.) I watched Malfoy just sitting there.

Not with his head down, with it up, like a... Gryffindor.

He didn't seem too bad...

And before I knew it I was in blackness with the hat over my eyes and it was talking to me- wait, what?

'Hello. You seem quite surprised that I can talk,' The Hat said.

'Um...' My mind went blank.

'Well not a Gryffindor,' he muttered.

'What?'

'Any proud Gryffindor would speak- or think- back to a talking hat.'

'I am a Gryffindor, I have to be.'

'And why's that?'

'So I can be with my family. And so I can help Scorpius make people like him,' I added as an afterthought.

'And defy your parents?'

'How- I'm not even going to ask. Just put me in Gryffindor. Please.'

'But what about your other traits?'

'I can have those as well in Gryffindor, just hurry up, people are staring.' It was no good to be near the end- people wanted their dinner.

'So?'

'JUST HURRY!' I thought with all my might. 'Just but me in any house, I'll brave it.'

'Brave it, eh? That looks like something for...'

"GRYFFINDOR!" I stood up, relived, pulled off the hat and ran over to the Gryffindor table.

Albus waved me over but I didn't sit next to him.

I sat next to Scorpius.


And my daddy said stay away from Juliet.


It was the summer after sixth year and my dad still didn't know.

And we were risky.

He would come over (in the night) and we would hang out.

No one knew, not even Al.

And then Dad saw us.

I didn't know he was awake.

"GET AWAY FROM MY LITTLE JULIET, YOU MALFOY!" he roared.

I wish he didn't call me that.

Scorpius ran away.

I never saw him after that.


I sneak out to the garden to see you.


We finally got to talk.

Near the end of our seventh year, I sent him a letter, I needed to see him.

At midnight I crept down to the Quidditch field. He was there for me.

I ran into his arms and wept.


I got tired of waiting, wondering if you were ever coming around.


It didn't last long.

Hogwarts was over, I was moving out Scorpius never came back.

I still needed him.


When I met you on the outskirts of town.


I went back to Hogwarts one last time.

And he was there.

"Rose," he whispered. "I'm sorry." And I fell for him each time. But I couldn't.

"Scorp... You hurt me in every way possible... I-"

"Just listen."


He knelt to the ground, pulled out a ring and said:


"Rose, please marry me. I love you and we can make this work. Your dad can't control you anymore. What do you say?"


Baby just say...


"Yes."
