A/N: R&R! Third chapter within a week! Enjoy!


Of all the people in Hogwarts– of all the people in the world– why did Scorpius have to chose this one?

Plenty of pretty girls liked him. Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs as well as Slytherins. Plenty of pretty girls had asked him to Hogsmede.

But Scorpius didn't want those pretty girls.

Scorpius didn't want any girl.

No way in hell would he ever– ever– tell his father he was gay. No way in hell.

Even though Scorpius knew he was gay, and accepted it, even liked it, he wished he liked someone else.

Not Albus Potter. Anyone but Albus Potter.

Anyone.
