Chapter 1 - Asking Out Scorpius

OHMYGOD OHMYGOD OHMYGOD! He looks so gorgey even when he is just standing around! Ok, breathe and - oops he's looking at his watch, better go.

"Hi Scorpy!" I smile my attractive smile. "How was double History of Magic?"

"Well, we actually thought James Gibbons had died of boredom until he gave this massive snore. Even Binns noticed. He now has detention for a week and has been banned from the trip on Saturday." He smiled at me. Omg, melty knees, melty knees.

"Ha ha. Well, look Scorpius, I was wondering -" but my words were drowned out by a very sing song voice.

"Oh hi, Scorpy baby!" This red head (fake) Ravenclaw fifth year that I knew vaguely from Quidditch bounced up to Scorpius and kissed him on the lips. I just stared. Scorpius looked a bit embarrassed.

"Umm, Rose, you know Amanda…" he looked at me hopefully while I looked blankly back. "She's on the Ravenclaw Quidditch team… Amanda Baytes?" Something jogged in my memory. A vision of a bludger speeding toward me and then blackness.

"Oh, yes" I smiled stonily. "Whacked a bludger my way third year. Took two weeks to recover. Could have failed my transfiguration test if Scor hadn't brought me my homework every day and helped with the answers. Concussion, you see."

Scorpius looked uncomfortable now. Good.

"Well, yes, you were saying?"

I didn't know what to say. But then I caught sight of a sixth year had some history with.

"Never mind. I don't need you now." I put emphasis on the last words.

"Mark! Hey Mark!" He looked round. He seemed pleased to see me.

"Hey Ro!"

Mark and I met at a party the Gryffindors once held when I was in second year. Alot of the Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs and even some Slytherins had snuck over to groove with us. My mate Rebecca suggested we play spin the bottle and I got paired with Mark Davis. After that night we started going out. We were together 5 months before I ended it because I liked Scorpius. Sometimes I regret it. He really is quite cool. And pretty hot too. He has jet black hair that falls into his eyes which are this really intense dark blue. Nearly as nice as Scorpius' green.

"Hey, Mark look I was wondering, do you want to come to Hogsmeade with me this weekend? It could be fun!" I smiled the smile and batted my eyelashes. I needn't have bothered. Every one knew he was still in love with me. It had earned me a few haters in the girl department.

"Yeah…" he breathed "yeah it would"

"Yay!" I said. "So, meet you in the Entrance Hall 11:00 Saturday!" I stood on my tippy toes and kissed him on the cheek. He walked off in a daze, stroking the place my lips had touched his cheek. I turned and noticed Scorpius looking at me. I figured he had seen the whole thing. I smiled coldly at him and walked away. I knew I had made him very jealous but I could still feel the tears welling up and sliding down my cheeks as I reached the Entrance Hall. What had I done?
