Ok small authors note: this took a while because this basically the longest singular chapter I have ever written, it was 5,000 words without the author's note.
Also I wanted to clarify for the story's sake in case there was any confusion: Albus is a Slytherin.
Disclaimer: I own nothing.
Scorpius had to admit, it had started out as one hell of a week.
Firstly, after spending the whole weekend in Rose Weasley's bed, he had woken up to her beautiful figure clinging to him in his sleep. Then after disappearing to change into his robes, she had appeared at his door, in his shirt. After that they were late for Transfiguration.
Suffice to say, the Professor was not pleased of the Head Boy and Girl. Scorpius made sure that he believed it had been a faulty alarm charm on their joint rooms. Then due to their lateness, they managed to get the last two seats in the back of the room. Which happened to be clandestine enough for them to hide their love nips when the Professor played a reel of slides of the class.
To top the day off, McLaggen had given him a glare when Rose immediately left with him, as she babbled on about some schedules, he was too busy imagining what McLaggen would do if he heard what Rose and him had been doing all weekend to hear all of what she was saying.
Every night since their first, she would fall asleep in his arms and he could never help but to stay up past her just to watch her sleep.
Most of the time he was immensely happy. Despite the fact that they were not telling anyone about their relationship, he was thrilled by the secrecy of it all. He loved pulling her into a corner after class and ravishing her. He loved giving her a smolder during their meals while both of them imagined what they would do to each other when they were alone. He loved when it happened even more.
His favorite day of the week had been when their potions Professor had forced her to tutor McLaggen, and on the day of Scorpius' match against Gryffindor!
Rose was his lucky charm and despite her obvious bias against his team, he needed to be with her before the match.
So obviously he was extremely angry. Unaware of why no one else could tutor him.
"Scorpius, I don't have a choice. Do you think I would if I had the choice?" She had said as she paraded around her room putting on her normal clothes.
Scorpius crossed his arms and leaned back in his chair.
"You're not getting jealous now, are you darling?" Rose gleamed. She loved knowing she could have that effect on him.
"Don't call me that." He mumbled. "And I'm not jealous, only superstitious."
She walked over to the chair he was sitting in and placed herself in his lap. She placed her hand on his chest, and began to rub him underneath his shirt.
"Stop it." He murmured pathetically.
She placed her head in the crook of his head and kissed his skin. "Darling…are you angry with me?"
"No love, I could never be angry with you."
"You're a terrible liar."
"You just know all my tells."
She smiled and placed a final kiss on his neck and stood again. "I have to go now, are you okay to stew here until I get back?"
Scorpius growled in response.
She stepped away towards the door.
"Can I have a kiss first?" He asked rolling his eyes at his own stupidity.
She smiled sweetly before turning back around. "Of course."
She kissed him quickly before turning back around and running out before she changed her mind.
Scorpius knew he wouldn't have been able to last long after that sweet, tender kiss. Those were the ones that made him want her the most.
He only made it an hour before he had to come and find her in the library. He made himself known to her and walked past her and McLaggen to the back shelves.
Honestly, he knew he should've gone to practice but well…she was his girl…and he was jealous.
He could see the obvious annoyance in her face, especially when he moved closer to her. Despite his urge to snicker, his urge to punch McLaggen in the face was stronger.
"Why are you here?" she seethed as she followed him into the back shelves.
"I missed you." He whispered and pulled her to him by her waist.
"No you don't. You can't stand to see me with anyone else for a second. Honestly, Scorpius, this is never going to work if you keep acting like this."
"I'm sorry." He snapped. "I really do miss you. I just…I love you." He mumbled honestly. He hated how needy he sounded. He had never acted like this before but he couldn't stand it that McLaggen thought he even had a chance with his girlfriend!
He pressed his head into her hair. Merlin did he love her hair.
She sighed. "I hate you."
He shook his head and pressed his lips to her shoulder. "No you don't. You love me. Don't you?"
"Nope." She said but leaned into his touch.
"That's too bad. I was sort of hoping we could shag against this shelf." He said.
She gasped and placed a hand to her heart. "You want me to defile a place of learning! Honestly, it's as if you don't even know me!"
"Come on love, tell me you never thought about fucking here in the library." He mumbled pressing his lips to hers.
"Must you be so vile?"
"Have your tight ass pressed against the books, while my cock is in your tight—"
"Scorpius!" She whispered hitting him in the shoulder.
"I promise it'll be quick." He said.
"I have no doubts about that." She mumbled.
"Excuse you?" He asked outraged.
"Well, I'm just saying that the other night could have been a bit longer, but you were too interested with getting straight to the point to care." She said.
"Really? Is that what you think?" He asked incredulously.
"No." She said suddenly realizing her mistake. "You know McLaggen's going to come looking for me."
"Let him." He whispered and before she realized it, he had snatched her knickers off and into his pocket and pressed his fingers into her.
She made a sudden noise that was a cross between a gasp, whimper and a squeal. "Oh my—" She gritted her teeth as he pulled his finger deeper than he had ever put it inside her before. Her mouth gaped open and she reached for the book shelf behind her to hold her up.
"What was that you were saying before? Did you want me to go slower?" He asked with a smirk.
She couldn't respond and only groaned with a trash of her head into the bookshelf. She scraped her nails across his shoulders. "Scorpius, please." She whimpered.
"Be quiet love." He mumbled against her lips before briefly kissing her.
He dropped down to his knees and pressed his mouth against her mound. She placed two of her knuckles in her mouth and bit down to try and keep her moans down.
His tongue darted inside of her and began to stroke her steadily. It wasn't long before he had her trembling above her and she was clutching to the bookshelf because her legs had given out underneath her.
There was a shuffling around them and they both jumped apart while Scorpius attempted to cover her from any prying eyes.
After she had reassembled herself he peeked around the corners of the book shelves and looked around. "I don't see anyone." He whispered.
"Just as well, it's a sign Scorpius." She said angrily.
"Does that mean that you don't want to finish?" He asked with a smirk.
"Suffice to say, the mood has officially been killed." She snapped.
"Are you angry?" He asked with a scoff.
"Yes, I am angry. Do you know how much trouble we could've gotten into?" She whispered harshly. "We're head boy and girl, we could've gotten expelled for that!"
"I very highly doubt we would've gotten expelled. Sometimes Rose, you need to get that stick out of your ass and unclench." He spat.
She gasped and began to walk away.
He grabbed her hand and pulled her back over to him, pushing her back into the shelf reluctantly. "I didn't mean that." He whispered.
"Yes you did." She said pulling her hand away from his and crossed her arms. "If not you wouldn't have said it."
He placed his hands on the shelf so he was completely towering over her. "I love you."
She stared over his shoulder not looking at him.
"Please, I'm sorry." He whispered and bumped her body with his.
She continued to stare away from him.
"Fine if you refuse to say I'm forgiven then I'll just be distracted during the entire Quidditch match. Then one of the bludgers will come at me and because I will be distracted, I will get hit by it. Then when I go down, it'll just go flying around and Albus will be so shocked that I got hit, the other bludger will hit him. Then there will only be the Gryffindor beaters and we all know they are horrible. So once Albus and I are down, the bludgers will go around smacking all your multitudes of cousins that are playing for the Gryffindor team! Is that really what you want?"
He could see that she was suppressing the urge to smile at his ridiculous idea. All he needed was one tiny final push. So he slightly tickled at her sides. Only enough to make her smile but not enough to make her laugh.
"Alright, I'm not mad anymore. Now would you go to practice? I wouldn't want for you to get knocked off your broom by a bludger and have your wonderful story that somehow injured all of my cousins to come true." She said with a roll of her eyes.
"Yes darling." He said smiling brightly. "Now when we win tonight, I will meet you at the dorm for our own celebration." He said with a kiss.
"Not bloody likely, because when we win, I plan on going to Gryffindor's party and getting pissed." She smirked.
"You've never had a drink a day in your life." He whispered as she slid away from him.
She shrugged. "Wouldn't you like to know?"
Rose had intended to go to the after party at Gryffindor after their spectacular win. Despite Scorpius' cockamamie ideas, he did not get attacked by a bludger nor did his team win the match.
She would've gone to the after party as she so stated except she knew he was upset. It wasn't merely losing the match. He could've handled that.
However, it had seemed as if that day Brighton McLaggen had it out for him. Not to say that in most matches he didn't enjoy attempting to humiliate Scorpius as much as possible but today it was as if he had had a personal vendetta.
He personally knocked Scorpius off his broom several times, thus causing the bludger to knock out their star chaser, Gregory Goyle Jr, when Albus could not manage to catch it.
Every time Scorpius had been fine, not even garnering a scratch. However his pride wasn't so lucky.
She saw his face coil with anger when her cousin Lily had caught the snitch. However, it wasn't directed towards her so much as towards McLaggen.
She had seen McLaggen notice Scorpius scorned look and gave him a smirk, if she had ever seen one.
She had run down to congratulate her many cousins when McLaggen had shocked her and picked her up, spinning her around. Then he attempted to kiss her, however she managed to push him away.
Suddenly, Albus had descended and attacked McLaggen for attempting to force himself upon her and then all of the Slytherin's were attacking McLaggen.
Before Professor Longbottom had managed to break them apart, she had noticed that Scorpius was personally punching in McLaggen's face.
Luckily, he had seen it as a squirm between the two houses and decided not to punish either side but swore to them if it happened again they would get double the punishment.
So, Rose took it upon herself to make it to their dorm before he did and surprise him to try and remove his bad move.
She heard him slam the door as he shuffled in, she loved his contradicting behaviours.
"Darling," She called as she heard him collapse onto the sofa.
"Don't call me that." He snapped angrily. "Shouldn't you be off with your boyfriend?" He asked not even bothering to open his eyes as she walked into the room.
"I thought I was."
"Don't mock me."
"I'm not. You know I didn't kiss him and you know he attacked me." She said carefully as to not to offend him.
He sighed.
She walked in front of him. "If you open your eyes I'll prove to you that I'm your girlfriend."
She could tell by his lid movements he was rolling his eyes but he turned and reluctantly opened his lids.
He shot up in his seat with his eyes open. He made a squeaking noise.
Rose had decided to dress in his favorite silk gray shirt with only her favorite lacy green bra and knickers on underneath. She had strategically placed the shirt perfectly to show him a strap of the bra, so he knew that she was wearing his favorite colour—dark green.
He gulped.
"I thought you could use some cheering up and since we never got to finish our little…date in the library, I thought now would be the perfect time. Unless you're too sore from being knocked off your broom all afternoon. Of course," She walked over and placed her hands on his shoulders. "If that's true I could always massage you instead."
He shook his head quickly and eagerly. "I like the first plan."
"Me too." She smirked and pushed him back onto the sofa while taking a few steps back so he could have a better view of her unbuttoning his shirt.
He growled as she slowly trailed her hand down her newly revealed skin to the tip of her knickers. He could see her beautiful breasts spilling over the cup and was itching to touch, lick and bite every inch of her.
She bit her bottom lip as she noticed his gaze on her breasts. "See something you like?" She whispered running her fingers around the edge of her bra.
"I don't know if I like you better with or without clothing. I honestly can't decide." He said huskily.
The sound of his voice just made her grow moister by the second.
"Well then, how about a compromise." She reached down and pulled off her knickers before throwing them at him. "They were practically soaked anyway."
He growled and reached for her hand pulling her on top of him. "I know we had this discussion earlier but seeing as I have been teased mercilessly all day by you, I think tonight a faster speed would be appreciated. Plus I don't intend on being finished with you until the morning, so I promise we'll take it slower later tonight."
She giggled and reached for his belt and quickly whipping it out of its slots. As she threw it across the room he unbuttoned and unzipped his trousers and quickly positioned himself at her entrance.
He slipped inside of her and she moaned as he began to thrust in her. He gripped her waist as they pounded into each other, meeting each other's thrusts.
"Scorpius, I'm right there." She gripped his shoulders and he thrust deeply into her reaching for her mouth with his own, both of them spilling into each other at the same time.
Scorpius peppered kisses across her bare skin as she panted. "You're right, faster is better sometimes."
Both Scorpius and Rose had managed to wake up late the next morning. To no shock of either of them. They had even missed the dropping of the post as it seemed.
It hadn't even occurred to them as they raced down to the Great Hall to separate. As they walked into the hall there was a sudden silence as all the students turned to look at them. Rose looked at Scorpius; they were a reasonable distance apart and didn't seem anymore odder than any other day.
It was true that they had walked in together but even before they had gotten together that had happened all the time and there could be for any number of reasons for them being late.
She noticed that there was a flurry among the staff at the table and Professor Longbottom ran from his headmaster's chair and Hagrid demanded that all the students go back to their meal.
Professor Longbottom reached them and ushered them out of the Great Hall.
"What—I'm hungry." Scorpius whined.
"I'll have the house elves bring you food in my office, please come with me." He said and ran to the gargoyle that hid his office. "Gilyweed."
The gargoyle sprang to life and let them into his office. He guided them to the chairs in front of his desk and sat in front of him.
She noticed a disavowal among the paintings of past headmasters.
"I'm afraid, I have some rather discerning news." He said.
"Discerning, downright embarrassing! You boy have besmirched the name of Slytherin and a head boy nonetheless!" Phineas Nigellus Black's painting shouted at them.
"Oh pipe down Phineas." Albus Dumbledore's said calmly. "It's not their fault"
"Honestly, look at their parents, it runs in their blood." Severus Snape's painting scoffed.
"Severus." Dumbledore warned.
"Professors." Professor Longbottom called above his head. "Do you mind if I at least explain to them what is going on? Before their parents show up and I'm sure Ron will be in a tizzy when he does."
"Our parents are coming?" Rose cried.
"Why? What's going on?" Scorpius called.
"I'm afraid...your relationship has been ousted in a most unfavorable way." Professor Longbottom said.
"What?" They both cried.
"Besmirched, I tell you!"
He leaned over his desk and handed them a copy of the Daily Prophet.
The headline read: A TALE OF WARING LOVERS and immediately below was a picture of Rose and Scorpius snogging against the bookshelf in the library.
Rose screamed while Scorpius shot up in a fury.
"WHO THE HELL TOOK THIS PICTURE?" He shouted.
"Now Mr. Malfoy, rest assured, I am doing all I can to find out—"
"NO! They saw—we were—you need to find out who took this picture Professor!" Whoever had taken the picture had also been watching Rose and him…when he mauled her, when he snatched off her underwear and when they...they had might've even seen some part of Rose that should've been preserved solely for him. Even taken pictures of it.
He could hear Rose silently weeping behind him. He moved over to Rose and cradled her in his arms as she cried into his shoulder.
"Besmirched our house and the name of the noble Blacks!"
"Shut it you old bat! At least I could get a girl!" Scorpius screamed as he rubbed Rose's back.
"Alright, everyone calm down now." Professor Longbottom said.
"A wise idea, Mr. Longbottom." Dumbledore said.
"Oh no." Rose moaned from his shoulder. "Our parents saw it Scorpius. The whole school. All of the wizarding world!"
"I'm sure not that many people saw it." He mumbled attempting to sound reassuring.
"Either way, your parents did see, both of yours, and they coming to the school immediately to yell at me I'm sure." He sighed.
"I'm sorry Professor Longbottom." Rose sobbed, her eyes red and puffy from crying.
"Now listen, both of you, I have decided not to take any action to punish you because I believe this is punishment enough. Now I know that there is no rule against simply snogging on campus but you must understand what position this puts me in. It is common knowledge to all students that you two share a room and as well to your parents. I can't in good conscious leave you both to stay in the same room. So until further notice, neither of you can stay in the Head's Dorm." He said.
"But Professor—" Rose cried. She couldn't go back to her room in Gryffindor, especially not after everyone knew she was with Scorpius. House diversity was strong and no one, who wasn't her family anyway, would forgive her for being with Scorpius. She would be alienated in the dorms.
It could even be worse for Scorpius, the other boys might even be violent towards him.
"I know, I know. I will try to find another space for one of you or I'll have to find some charm to perform on your bedrooms. I'm not an idiot though; I know perfectly well that you two will find a place to do whatever you plan to do anyway, but please try not to get caught next time." He pleaded.
They nodded and there was a banging at the door.
"Neville Longbottom you open this door right now!" Rose's father shouted through the door.
"Rose you're father's here." He smiled. "Listen, I've known your parents for a good majority of their lives, both of your parents. They tend to be mostly reasonable, and I will attempt to calm them down but unfortunately your father's are a little hot headed. So don't take anything either of them says too seriously. Unfortunately, your mother's cannot physically stop them from speaking before they think."
He stood up and reached for the door as Rose wiped her eyes and nose. Scorpius kissed her forehead lightly and returned to his chair.
"Longbottom I know you're in there! I don't want to have to start telling people the story of the night of your stag night but I will! Starting with your wife!"
Professor Longbottom opened the door and Ron bounded in to see his daughter and her boyfriend sitting there.
"You little wanker!" He shouted.
"Ronald!" His wife screeched. "Honestly! Don't be rude and did you really need to run here? You almost killed me!"
The Malfoys trailed in behind them with a slight air of distaste.
"Do you know how much you embarrassed me today at work?" His father cried.
"Exactly!" Ron cried. "Your uncle Harry laughed at me!"
"How is that different from any other moment of your life?" Draco sneered.
"Do you really want to do this, Death Eater?" Ron snapped.
"Ronald Bilius Weasley! That was uncalled for!" Hermione yelled. "Now sit down before I make you."
Ron stood up to her and looked down at her both of them unwilling to blink. He sighed and moved to the chair closest to him while still glaring at his wife.
"Would everyone please sit down?" Professor Longbottom said. They all sat down and the room finally quieted down. "I've already talked to them and I've already decided that they are not going to lose their titles or positions, I will however ask them to move back into their own separate dorms until I can find a more permanent solution for them. I think we all understand that some students may not be necessarily welcoming back to them after this morning's paper. I have personally contacted the Daily Prophet and said if they do not rescind the paper and offer a full apology that not only will I get the ministry involved, they will have the full staff of Hogwarts, the Malfoys, Weasleys and Potters on their backs until they do. That should do the trick."
He scratched his head. "I unfortunately cannot do anything about the students who have already seen paper, but rest assured we have attempted to remove the papers that are in student's possessions and will do so if we find any others. Now I will not punish them as there is no rule against snogging on campus, but I do ask that you are a little more discreet—"
"We were in the back biography section of the library how much more discreet can we be?" Scorpius muttered and his father smacked him on the back of his head.
"Don't talk back."
"Yes father." He mumbled.
"Professor Longbottom, perhaps it might be best if we allow the children and their parents alone time with each other." Dumbledore said.
"Wonderful idea." Professor Longbottom said. "I shall see you in a few minutes."
"Goodbye Neville." Hermione said.
"Mudblood! Is that you! Girl take this blindfold off it's been years!" Phineas Nigellus Black's painting cried from its spot on the wall.
"How many times have I told you not to use that word!" Snape's painting yelled.
"It's alright Professor Snape," Hermione said. "Obviously you haven't learned your lesson, so I see no need to take it off. Of course you can't see much of anything."
Dumbledore laughed quietly and shook his head.
"May we please get back to the matter at hand?" Scorpius' mother cried. "Our family has been humiliated on the front page of the Daily Prophet!"
"Well, I'm sure that your son attacked our daughter!" Ron cried. "So it's your son you should be blaming!"
"Once again, Weasley's too much of a wimp to take responsibility. How did you ever get into Gryffindor? It definitely wasn't your family's money, that's for sure!" Malfoy cried.
"Honestly, is this how you thank us for saving your fanny from those Ministry employees who wanted to skin you alive?" Ron cried.
"Ronald! That's enough, for everyone!" Hermione shouted. "It's like being with a bunch of school children. Now yes, this wasn't the shining moment in our children's lives, but they didn't do anything wrong either. I'm positive all of us have done worse things in this school besides snogging, whether they be intent on destroying the school or not."
Scorpius sighed. "Look, Mum, Dad, I'm sorry for the embarrassment. I promise you that was not my intention. Trust me, Rose was the last person I wanted to fall for but it happened and I don't intend on us ending anytime soon so you, all of you, better get used to it. Because the only time I plan on not being with Rose is when she doesn't want me around."
Rose smiled and reached for his hand. "Same goes for me and I intend on bringing him to all the same functions that you would extend to any other boyfriend or girlfriend of the group. I expect you to treat him with the same respect as well. Especially, since I plan on him being around for a long time."
Scorpius smiled and squeezed her hand.
Rose stood up and kissed her parents on the cheek. "I will see you during Christmas break." She walked over to the Malfoy's and shook their hands. "It was nice meeting you and I hope to see you again under better circumstances." She then walked away towards the door.
"Same here!" Scorpius called. "See you at Christmas!" He ran after her and hugged her from behind practically tackling her to the ground.
"I love you, did I ever mention that?"
She smiled. "Once or twice."
He reached for her hand and pulled her close. "You have to admit this being outted-thing has its good points."
"Like what?" She asked.
He pushed her up against the wall. "Like that I can kiss you whenever I want." He kissed her happily before pulling her back to their walk.
"We can also eat breakfast together." She said.
"We did that before, we just said you were eating with Albus." Scorpius smirked.
"Touché."
They heard a snigger from behind them. "Having a good day you slags?" McLaggen smirked as he passed by them.
Scorpius dropped her hand. Suddenly, things in his mind began to click. McLaggen had been in the library when they had that photo taken. He hadn't even questioned the fact that she had been gone for almost half an hour in the back of the library. He had been extra angry at him yesterday. He had even smirked right at him as he tried to kiss Rose.
It had to have been him.
Scorpius pushed him up against the wall. "It was you!"
Rose noticed a crowd drawing around them. She saw her parents and Scorpius' running towards them.
"You sniveling little git!" He thrashed him against the wall.
Rose turned red, she knew her parents could hear and see everything that was going on. She didn't want them to hate Scorpius anymore than they already did.
"You took the pictures of us yesterday! Where are the rest of them?" He growled.
"You know the funny thing about pictures?" McLaggen smirked. "That when the original subjects didn't know about the pictures, they keep moving, no matter where they're aimed."
Scorpius unleashed a scream, unlike anything she had ever heard before.
"I will kill you with my bare hands!" Scorpius yelled.
"I don't think that'll look very good for the head boy." McLaggen tsked.
"I don't give a rat's arse you fucking pervert! If you don't give me those pictures, every single copy, I will make sure you never live to see another day!" He yelled.
Students had begun to pile around whispering "fight."
"Scorpius." Rose whispered.
He turned and smiled at her flawlessly. "One moment darling."
She could almost see the cringe of the students around them at him calling her darling. Though it only made her squeal inside.
He turned back to McLaggen angrily. "If I find out that you're pathetic arse has been following us around again, I will happily go to Azkaban to make sure that you do not get away with it. Do you understand?"
McLaggen squeaked in understanding.
"Say it."
"I understand."
"Good boy, now you go and turn yourself into Professor Longbottom or I can go and do it myself and I assure you he won't be as lenient if you don't tell him yourself." Scorpius said, he released his robes and let McLaggen scamper off angrily after being embarrassed.
"You never intended to hurt him did you?" Rose asked as he disappeared.
Scorpius simply shook his head. "Just to embarrass him, but I happily will beat him if it will please you."
She shook her head. "That was perfect."
Ron leaned towards Hermione quietly and took her hand. "He's not that bad."
"Of course you would think that." Hermione whispered harshly but smiled. She secretly admitted to herself, however, that he wasn't too horrible. Perhaps even downright charming.
Phew! Glad I finally got that out of my head. Now Practice will be updated with its final chapter today or tomorrow and then I will update No Ordinary Life and maybe post another one shot or perhaps change Yule Ball to a two-shot as people have asked for a continuation.
Please if you have not already, read my other stories, I assure you they are equally compelling!
Ok now please review!
