Chapter 2
I was now in the common room, drunk out of my mind. Well, for me. Truthfully I had only had three glasses of firewisky and I've only ever had one. Usually, I don't do things like this, but I felt that I needed to let loose. How cares that I'm a prefect? I most certainly do not. Ugh, that sounded stupid. I'm not even that drunk.
"Pass me some firewisky Rosie!" Alubs slurred and he stumbled over to me. He, of course, was completely wasted. He did this after every game and always regretted it in the morning. I always told him not to do it, but he did anyways.
"Hell no. You've had way too much to drink and you bloody know it, too!"
"C'mon, Rosie! Lighten up! Have some fuuuuun! WOOOOOOO!" he yelled and everyone responded with a loud "WOOOOOOO!"
"I'm going for a walk. Unlike you, I can actually walk! Bloody idiot." I said storming out of the common room. I could've heard I heard him say, very slurred, 'bitch', but I just let it go. I'm surprised no teacher can hear all this noise. I knew I would never try to stop the party, prefect or not Al would skin me alive and never let me hear the end of it.
I have no idea where I'm going to go, but I just need some cool air. Maybe Hagrid would want me to pay a visit? Ugh, no it's 3:00 in the morning, he's not even up. Good thing tomorrow's Saturday. I have a feeling there's going to be a lot of hung-over people walking around tomorrow. Joy. A hung-over Albus. Just want I need. I guess I'll just walk to the Astronomy tower to think. Yeah, that would be relaxing, I thought.
As I walked up the stairs I took a sharp intake of breath. Right there I saw Scorpius and Lily making out. I couldn't believe my mind. How could she?! I-I mean..what? Why did I just think that? Do I have f-no! I don't! I will NEVER like him in that way.
My gasp seemed to have caught their attention, as they were looking at me right now.
"R-rosie!" he stuttered as Lily just looked at her wide-eyed.
"I'll just be going then.." I said and took off down the stairs, tears forming in my eyes. Why am I crying? I don't even like him! But, what if I really do? No! I don't.
I ran down the corridor and into the girl bathroom and just started crying when I finally heard someone yelling my nameā¦
Scorpius's POV
"R-rosie!" I stuttered suddenly feeling guilty. How could I be feeling guilty? She was my best friend and nothing more!
"I'll just be going then.." she said and took off down the stairs. I immediately took off after her, falling way behind. Damn those long legs of hers! I started calling her name, but she didn't hear. She just turned into the girls bathroom.
"Shit," I said out loud, "Rose! Rosie I know you're in there? Can I just explain myself?"
"Why would you need to explain yourself?" she said walking out of the bathroom, he eyes a little puffy like she had been crying.
"I-I don't know. She's your cousin, I just thought you would be mad.." I lied, not wanting her to know I felt guilty.
"No, I'm not at mad at all. I think it's good Lily found someone. You always find girlfriends. It's okay, honest! I'm totally okay with it! Yeah!" she rambled on.
"Then why have you been crying?!" I blurted out. She looked taken back from the statement. I don't even know why I said it, it just came out.
"I-"
"No, never mind. I shouldn't have said that. I should just go. Cya later."
I ran back to the Slytherin common room feeling humiliated. How could I have just said that to her?!
The next day, Rose and I didn't talk and it continued on for a week, and Albus was starting to notice the strange activity. Rose was always mumbling something about prefect duty when I came to their common room to hangout and whenever she would come up I would blurt out some excuse to leave.
"What's up with you and Rose, mate? You guys haven't spoken in a week!" Al said sounding desperate as we walked to the Great Hall for breakfast.
"What are you talking about? We talk all the time! Nothing is wrong at all!"
"Now I know there is something wrong, you never ramble on like that."
"Fine. I'll tell you, but you can't tell anyone, especially Rose," he motioned his head to go on and I did, "Rose walked in on Lily and I in a full-out make-out session. Yes, I know she's your sister, but I just needed to get my mind off of the bloody Quidditch loss. When I saw the look on her face I felt soooo guilty."
"Damn. That is bad."
"Oh wait, there's more. I ran after her and I could tell she was crying, I know how she acts after she does, and I asked her why she was crying after she said she wasn't mad. I feel so bloody stupid!"
"Well, mate, you seem to have a problem. Just talk to her!"
"Okay, I will. Cya later," I said and started to walk out of the Great Hall.
"And tell her you like her!" he shouted, not too loud though.
"W-what?"
"I see the way you look at her. Do yourself a favor, mate. Tell her how you feel!"
With that, he left the Great Hall leaving me there with my mouth wide open. Maybe, I did like her. No! I don't! She is my best friend who just happens to be not talking to me at the moment! This was going to be a rough day, I could just tell. It didn't help at all when I had doubles Potions with her now and she was my partner.
