5th year
"hey rosie?!" al yelled through the room
"yeah?" i said moving towards him.
"i really need some help on my transfiguration essay, could you help me? please?" he said making puppy eyes at me
"fine! i sighed "but only if you actually do something and don't just copy mine" i said for the hundredth time, i don's know why i keep helping him out. oh yeah he's my cousin and best friend... thats why, god damnit I have got to make new friends…
"oh you know me" al said, putting on his charm "i'm a very honest slytherin"
"dude, i'm your cousin, that doesn't work on me... although it does freak me out a bit" al might be able to make any girl in the castle dance flamingo while singing baby (really, he actually made one of the girls do that...) but it didn't work on me. luckily, it would be weird if it did...
"but will you help me?" he asked
i sighed "yes of course i will. again..."
"thanks rose" he said lightening up "i'll bring scorp, you don't mind do you? okay bye!" and he was gone
typical... of all his friends he just had to bring malfoy...
it wasn't a secret that me and malfoy hated each other. we had fought since the day we met, but no one expected my amazing (notice sarcasm) cousin to befriend him. that wasn't exactly the ideal situation for anyone, i couldn't just stop being friends with albus and he was in slytherin and couldn't avoid all of the guys, but really? malfoy?
of all the terrible people in slytherin, Al thought it would be great to become friends with a malfoy... and now the two boys where friends and i was mortal enemis with one of them and best friends with the other one
karma...
and now i was spending the night in the library with the two of them...
oh joy
"Hey! where are you going?" My best friend ally finnigan asked from her bed in the girls dormitory.
I was on the bed next to her packing my bag with books. "The library, al needs help with his homework"
"Oh, and i'm guessing the lovely malfoy will be there as well?" She asked innocent "try not to ruin to many books will you?"
Why am I even friends with her? Oh yeah, who else would go near the weird sarcastic weasley?
I finished packing my bag but failed to zip it, I have way to many books...
I sighed as I got up and tried not to let any books fall out as I walked to the library.
"Oi! Weasley" Malfoy shouted, making me drop a book.
"What!" I snapped, annoyed that he had made all my efforts a waste of time
"Whoa there weasel! No need to bite my head off."
I had finally picked my book up from the floor, luckily without dropping the rest. Win! "Why do you even study with me and al anyway? You don't need help!"
"Well, you are going to be there, I didn't have anything else to do, so I thought 'hey, why don't I annoy weasley' and you do enjoy my presence don't you" he said raising an eyebrow at me as I dropped yet another book.
"Yes malfoy" I said my voice dripping with sarcasm " I simply can't get enough if you"
"Well i'am glad we're on the same page weasley" he teased
"As much as I enjoy your company, al is waiting for me in the library and I'd rather not be late" I said as I bend over to pick up the third book I'd dropped
"So malfoy, you can either go back to whatever cave you live in or you can go carry some of my books! your choice!" I told him, not sure what to hope for, as much as I may hated him I was getting really tired of carrying my books.
Malfoy raised a teasing eyebrow at me "how cliche weasley, carrying your books? Should I kiss you goodnight too?"
I sighed "i'll take that as you choose to carry books Prince Charming" I mocked as I dropped my books in his hands.
-•-
Apparently my books were a little heavier than he thought, cause he dropped four books on the way to the library. I actually didn't really care but it was fun to scream at him every time
"Malfoy!" I snapped when he dropped the fifth book "books are expensive dude!"
"Yes for weasleys" malfoy answered smugly. "Well at least we earn our own money, malfoys just get them from dying family members!" I said watching him trying to balance the books as he picked up 'fantastic beasts and where to find them'
"What is up with you weasley? Is it your time of the month?"
"Yes" I answered leaning in to whisper in his ear "I started my day in a pool of blood! Is that how you want to end yours?"
Now this caused him to fall over and drop ALL of the books. "Good weasley! No need to traumatize me!" He squeaked, sitting on the floor
I tilted my head back and let out a laugh " oh my- I have been waiting for ages to use that joke! Oh- your- you'd face!" I laughed, falling to the floor. Not that the fall stopped me from laughing...
I was just laying there, rolling around, laughing my ass off.
"What are you guys doing?" I looked up to find my cousin albus, bending over to look at us.
"Your cousin is crazy" malfoy stated from beside me "absolutely crazy!"
Well done Sherlock, I think your the last person on this planet to notice, I thought trying to catch my breath
"I think you might need a new best friend al! This one is broken, I think my joke kinda ruined it" I said still giggling
"Rosie" he said with a fake parent voice "I have told you to stop playing with my toys!" He then turned to scorpius "dude that's my cousin, I know you think she's hot, but really dude! Brocode?"
Finally I stopped giggling and noticed how this looked. My books were spread across the floor, I had a leg over malfoys legs, my shirt had three open buttons revealing a bit too much of my bra and- well you get the picture... Ruffled hair, unbuttoned shirts, it looked like a snog session
Apparently malfoy had noticed this too and he shot al a surprised look as he figured out what he thought we had been doing. "Oh! No no no no" he said blushing. Is it possible for malfoys to blush?
"Well malfoy" I said trying to make him uncomfortable "I guess I did get my goodnight kiss" mission accomplished! He looked both very confused and mad.
"Well" he said suddenly looking very smug, it's never good when a malfoy wear that expression...
"You sure know what to do with your mouth" oh so he was playing as well
He leant in and whispered in my ear "well good luck explaining that one to al! Later loser" he got up and ran as fast as he could
"HEY LOSER,COME BACK YOU COWARD" I shouted at him but he didn't look back
"So?" Al said looking down at me with a very mollyish expression.
I sighed cursing Malfoy in my head "so... Nothing happened al, we didn't kiss."
"Well why would you both said it happened just a minute ago" wow this dude knows how to make you feel guilty for something you haven't even done... Curse him...
"Al, we were trying to make you mad at the other... I started it but he ran away so I ended up getting a lecture, get it?"
He sighed, pulling me up "you guys confuse me, one minute your mortal enemies the other your shamelessly flirting with each other"
"Trust me al, nothing will EVER happen" ew I can't even stand the thought of- ew no
"Fine, I'll go to bed Rosie, I did my homework with Emma anyway" he said picking up my books "but i'll follow you to your common room, there's no way you can carry all those books by yourself..."
Have I mentioned how much I love my cousin?
