Hello People of the World,
I am so sorry for the über long time without an update. The truth is, I kind of forgot about this story *hangs head in shame*. I was really busy trying to finish my story (I did it-yes!) and starting a sequel. It would be awesome if you guys checked it out and left a review.
Then, I decided to wait until Valentine's Day to post this. So sorry again for the über long wait.
Enjoy!
Forever
I promise I will always hold you close
In my heart, in my arms
I won't make the same mistake
And push you away again
I'll listen to you and love you with all of my heart
Because you deserve that and so much more
So if you forgive my grave mistakes
I will love you forever
Scorpius ran his fingers through his platinum blond hair again, finally getting up from his chair. His roommates had been asleep for hours, but he could not close his eyes. When he could take it no more, Scorpius pulled the covers off of his four poster bed and dragged them behind him into the hallway.
Chills went down the Slytherin boy's spine as the sheets hissed against the thick carpet. He continued towards the Gryffindor Common Room, tears pricking his pale, grey eyes.
"You're not a Gryffindor!" a voice suddenly exclaimed. Scorpius looked around miserably to see that a fat lady in a portrait had spoken.
"I'm waiting for someone," he explained. "But she might not show up," Scorpius added quietly.
"Is this about that Rose girl?" the Fat Lady asked kindly. "One of the girls said she's coming back." Scorpius perked up at the news. "But I still can't make exceptions. You'll have to wait outside."
Scorpius nodded in agreement, his stony orbs gleaming with hope. Without another word, he spread out his sheets and fell asleep.
Scorpius woke up to someone whispering his name and shaking him.
"Scorpius," the person repeated, rousing him. Scorpius' grey eyes suddenly recognized the girl in front of him.
"Rose," he breathed incredulously, gazing into her watery eyes. "I missed you." She threw her arms around him, her soft red hair tickling his cheek. Rose's tears fell thick and fast as he gathered her into his arms. Scorpius murmured her name over and over again, holding her as tightly as he could.
"Don't leave me again!" Scorpius begged. Rose pulled away from him for a second. Her eyes gazed lovingly into his pale irises, and she reached up to brush away a tear.
"I promise," she assured him.
"I missed you so much, Rose," Scorpius told her, a sob catching in his throat.
She took one of his hands into her own and squeezed it. Tears clouded Rose's eyes again, and she rested her head on his shoulder.
"I love you, Scorpius." Rose nestled against him and closed her eyes. He smiled at her, and closed his too.
When You Were Gone
I missed how your smile melted my heart
I wanted your voice to soothe my pain
I cried when we were apart
And wept each lonely day
When you were gone, the skies were grey
And the birds refused to sing
Because they knew you'd gone away
That your laughter would no longer ring
But I'm whole again because you're here
Though I made so many mistakes
I promise I'll always hold you near
Because I am yours to take
That was the end of my three-shot. I know it was short and fluffy, but I hope you guys liked it. Don't forget to leave a review!
Also, I'm going to post a new one-shot soon. It is about George coping with the loss of his brother, and will be called Each Breath. Keep your eyes open for it!
