Hello readers! Thank you so much for reviewing this story! Your reviews mean so much to me. Thank you again! Here is the second chapter to this story. I will upload the third chapter right now. Chapter 2 isn't my best chapter, but it's an important filter chapter. Since it's not the best chapter in the world, I decided I'd upload two chapters today. :) The third chapter is pretty exciting... well, at least I think so. :)

CHAPTER 2: Family, Awkwardness, and New Dormitories

"Pass the salt," fifth year, Hugo Weasley asked his sister, and fellow Gryffindor, at the Gryffindor table in the Great Hall. After all the first years had been sorted, the Hogwarts students had quickly dug into their meals.

For Rose's final year at Hogwarts, the Weasley/Potter/Lupin clan is smaller than it used to be. Now there only remains 5 Weasleys and 2 Potters: Rose Weasley (7th year) and Hugo Weasley (5th year); Louis Weasley(6th year)-only son of Fleur and Bill Weasley; Lucy Weasley (2nd year) and Molly Weasley(3rd year)-the two children of Audrey and Percy Weasley; Albus Severus Potter (7th year) and Lily Luna Potter (5th year). James Sirius Potter, the eldest son and child of Harry and Ginny, graduated a year prior and is now a chaser for the Puddlemere United Quidditch team. Fred Weasley, Angelina and George Weasley's son, graduated two years ago and is now learning how to run his father's joke shop, Weasley Wizard Wheezes. Fred's twin, Roxanne Weasley, graduated two years ago and is now studying to become a healer. Victoria Weasley, eldest daughter of Bill and Fleur, and Teddy Lupin graduated five years ago and are now happily wed for one year. Dominique Weasley, the middle child of Bill and Fleur, graduated two years ago and is working in the Department of Magical Transportation at the Ministry of Magic.

"Please," Rose reprimanded her younger brother.

Scorpius turned to watch the conversation between the siblings, as did a lot of the Gryffindor table and many students from other houses.

"Wha'?" Hugo responded, with his mouth full of food, looking a lot like his father.

"First off, ewww. Close your mouth when you're eating. Not all of us want to see your food, thank you very much. Second off, you didn't say please."

"Fine! Please pass the salt," Hugo said, rolling his eyes at his sister's antics.

"No, I'm using it. Sorry," Rose said, which was met with many giggles from the watchers, Scorpius included.

"What's so funny?" Rose asked Scorpius.

"Nothing, nothing… It's just… sometimes I wish I had a sibling…" Scorpius said somberly.

"Trust me. You don't. I wish I was an only child… then I could actually get the bloody salt!" Hugo chimed in.

Rose glared at him and he was instantly silenced.

"Anyways, Scorp," Al said, intruding in on the conversation. "You do have a sibling—Rosie! "

By this time, Dil was now eavesdropping on the conversation, as the topic of Ro's and Scorp's relationship was introduced to the conversation.

When Ro and Scorp looked at Al like he was insane, Al tried to prove his sanity by adding, "You and Ro are so close—it's like your siblings. Rose is your sister!"

Rose and Scorpius eyed each other cautiously, considering the fact that they could possibly be considered siblings.

"No, Al. You're mistaken… We are not siblings. That's just plain, awkward… very, very awkward," Rose said, a small blush creeping up on her cheeks.

"Leave it to Al to make a pleasant conversation awkward…" Scorp whispered so that only Rose could hear.

Rose laughed out loud and was awarded a raising of the eyebrows from Dillon. She instantly stopped giggling.

Normal, not "awkward," conversation then took place until Professor McGonagall, now and still Headmistress of Hogwarts since Dumbledore's passing, dismissed everyone to bed.

As everyone got up to leave, McGonagall said in her magnified voice, "Oh! And could the Head Boy and Girl remain for a couple moments please."

Scorpius and Rose did as asked and McGonagall quickly led them to their dormitory.

As they all walked to the dormitory, McGonagall rambled on to the two Heads: "You two will each have your own rooms, obviously, and the rooms will be pre-decorated to your specified house. Since you both are in Gryffindor, you will find that both your rooms are decorated in gold and red colors. There is one bathroom that the two of you will share and a shared common room for the both of you to use at your leisure. I will not assign you any tasks today or tomorrow, to allow you some time to adjust back into your lives at Hogwarts. Your unassigned task is to always set a good example for your fellow Hogwarts students. Whether you like it or not, or whether you know it or not, you two are role models for the other students and at least one student always has his or her eyes on you. They follow your lead and will act the way you act. You must always be on your best behaviors…"

McGonagall then turned around to face Rose and Scorpius, as they had reached the portrait hole of the Head dormitory.

"And I wouldn't expect anything less," McGonagall continued, with a small and rare smile on her face.

"You two were chosen for a reason and you should be immensely proud of your achievements thus far. Your password to enter your dormitory is 'Blast-Ended Skrewt' and you can change it whenever you two are both present at the portrait hole. Have a good evening and meet me in my office in two days, after lunch."

With that, McGonagall departed and Scorpius and Rose were left alone in front of their portrait hole.

"Password?" the lady in the portrait asked Ro and Scorp. The lady was wearing a long, feathered, blue dress, which made her look strikingly like a peacock.

"Blast-Ended Skrewt," Rose responded instantly.

The portrait hole opened and the two best mates entered their living space for their final year at Hogwarts.
