French Navy by Camera Obscura

Spent a week in a dusty library

Waiting for some words to jump at me

We met by a trick of fate

French navy my sailor mate

Rose Weasley was very intelligent. She was a very proud Ravenclaw; she would spend hours in the library without even realizing it. She had top marks in most of her classes, and they usually fascinated her, but tonight, she was rather bored. She was reading about her newest Potions assignment, and to be honest, she was about to fall asleep. All of a sudden, she saw a patch of platinum blond from the corner of her eyes. She looked up, and sure enough, Scorpius Malfoy was walking towards her. Scorpius and Rose were never particularly close, they were merely acquaintances. Scorpius did not get along very well with her cousin, James Potter, but that was their battle, not hers.

"Mind if I sit here?" Scorpius asked while Rose just nodded tiredly, "Ah, the Potions assignment. I nearly gave out while looking that up." Scorpius joked.

"If you hadn't come over here, I would be asleep." Rose said bluntly. Scorpius just smiled; he had always liked Rose Weasley, she wasn't like the other girls.

"Well, I'm sorry if I interrupted your beauty sleep, but I don't know why you would need it. I think that you would look wonderful no matter what." Scorpius said to a very pink Rose.

We met by the moon on a silvery lake

You came my way

Said, I want you to stay

Rose agreed to meet Scorpius out by the Black Lake, but he was late. What if he decided not to come, or even worse, was it a joke? Rose thought, he was a Slytherin after all. Immediately after that thought, Rose saw Scorpius exiting the castle and she felt extremely guilty. He walked over to her as she waved.

"Hello, Scorpius." Rose said quietly. She was nervous, she liked Scorpius, but she didn't know how to act around him.

"Hey Rose, how was your day?" Scorpius asked as he gave her a tight hug. It was friendly, he decided, but also said that he wanted to be more than friends.

"It just got better." Rose said, giggling. Scorpius loved her laugh; it wasn't fake like other girls. There was nothing fake about Rose Weasley, Scorpius decided.

"Mine too. So, how was that Potions assignment, did the Great Rose ace it?" Scorpius asked jokingly. The day wore on with their contented banter, but the sun began to set. Scorpius opted to go inside, but Rose said she loved that time of day. Rose was watching the beautiful sunset, but Scorpius' eyes were transfixed on Rose. It was getting dark, and Scorpius needed to get to quidditch practice.

"I'm sorry, Rose, but I've got to be heading to quidditch. I've had a wonderful time, and I hope you did too." Scorpius said, a little disappointed that he lost his nerve. He had planned to ask her out, but he was in Slytherin for a reason. Besides, Rose probably just wanted to be friends with a Malfoy. Rose could tell that Scorpius was miffed about something, but she couldn't figure out. She said goodbye, and even that they should do something again sometime. He had started to walk away, but the Rose ran to catch up to him,

"Wait, Scorpius!" Rose said, as he turned around, "I just wanted to, erm, say this." Rose stood on her tip toes, and kissed him on his lips. Scorpius just stayed there for a couple of seconds, and Rose pulled back to her regular height. She was blushing, and a little embarrassed.

"So, bye. I'll see you in class tomorrow-"Rose said, but she was interrupted by Scorpius' lips. She stood taller, and wrapped her arms around his neck, and his draped around her waist.

You and your dietary restrictions

Said you loved me with a lot of convention

Rose and Scorpius had dating for a couple of months, and they were very happy. It was obvious they were falling for each other. It was a bright Hogsmeade day, and Scorpius decided to pick Rose up at the Ravenclaw common room. They planned to go to the Three Broomsticks, and they ate lunch also wanted to go to Honeydukes because her supply of Bertie Botts' Every Flavor Beans was low. They purchased Rose's ridiculous amount of sweets, and ate outside. Rose chomped away on her beans, and Scorpius looked absolutely disgusted.

"How can you eat those?" He asked incredulously. Rose just smiled, and shrugged.

"Why don't you like them, I think they are amazing!" Rose said.

"I think you're amazing, but those are still gross." Said Scorpius and Rose giggled.

"I love you, and you're peculiar aversion to these delicious sweets!" Rose said while laughing, and Scorpius hugged her, and muttered something in her ear.

"What, Scorpius?"

"I said, I love you Rose." Scorpius said quietly as he blushed. Rose just smiled at him, and captured his lips.

"I love you, too." Rose said, looking into his eyes. Scorpius loved her eyes, they were the prettiest dark blue he had ever seen. Nobody saw either of them for the rest of the day. They were later found by Lily Potter, snogging in the back of a bookstore.

I was waiting to be struck by lightning

Waiting for somebody exciting

Like you

Rose was so blissful with her relationship with Scorpius. Sure, she had dated other boys before, but they were nothing compared to Scorpius; he had a certain spark. Maybe it was the fact that they were not supposed to see each other; it was, for lack of a better word, forbidden. The thrill of sneaking around Hogwarts was great, but Rose felt as if it was something more. She felt so lovesick, albeit a little helpless, but she knew that Scorpius would never take advantage over their relationship. She trusted him completely.

Oh, the thing that you do

You make me go uuuh

With the things that you do (you do, you do)

Scorpius also loved Rose far more than any girl he had ever been with. They were all dull compared to his Rose. He loved the adventure of their relationship; they were star-crossed lovers. How cliché. But Scorpius loved every minute of it. He was tired of his family trying to control his life. He was responsible, and was very decisive. One thing that always irked Scorpius Malfoy was that he could never really tell if his father wanted what was best for him, or for the family name. Honestly, to him, it hurt to know that there was even an inquiry about the situation. He shouldn't have to deal with preconceived ideas, but they were also one of the many things accompanied with the Malfoy name.

I wanted to control it

But love, I couldn't hold it

I'll be criticized for lending out my eye

I was criticized for letting you break my heart

Rose was going through a very hard time. Her relationship with Scorpius was rather strained because her family was so unsupportive. Bugger, her family wasn't just unsupportive; they were just down right against the whole idea. Rose loved her family, more than almost anything. Her parents were weary of the fights that ensued when Scorpius' name appeared in conversations. Her cousins often sneered at her choice of boyfriend, and had the nerve to make up lies about him. It was unfair, why couldn't anyone just believe that this was for real, and that they were going to make it? But a little voice inside Rose's head vaguely said 'It won't last because no one believes.' Rose Weasley refused to listen to that voice that oddly enough sounded like her mum. She and Scorpius believed in their relationship, that's all that mattered.

Why would a stand disappoint unless (?)

Fooling all but I'm more than dead love (?)

uuuh with the looks

Oh tender boy,

Ooh, with the looks, the looks, the looks

Scorpius was also having a difficult time with his family. They were not pleased with Scorpius' choice of romantic acquaintance. They wanted no part of this; they even threatened to disown him if his relationship with Rose continued. Scorpius was disoriented, why couldn't they just be satisfied with him? He knew what he had to do. Scorpius loved Rose with all his heart, but he indeed had a duty to his family. He had tried to save their relationship, but it had fallen apart. Rose couldn't live without her family's love, and Scorpius refused to live devoid of his family's approval. It was how they were.

Relationships were something I used to do

Convince me they are better for me and you

Rose looked back at her last years at Hogwarts. She missed Scorpius, or rather a loving boyfriend. It had been over two years since they graduated, and they had hardly seen each other since. Rose hadn't seen anybody since; they just didn't compare to Scorpius. She tried, but relationships just didn't seem as crucial to her anymore, not without him.

We met by a trick of fate

Scorpius sat in his study, looking at a photograph. It was taken months before his graduation. In the picture, he is holding Rose in his arms, and they were looking into each other's eyes. He watched the faces look up at him and smile and blush. Scorpius put the photo down. He missed having someone to talk to, someone to be there for him. Scorpius still loved Rose, but he loved the Rose he first met at Hogwarts. He knew that he had failed their relationship, he had tried to direct it, but it wasn't meant to be. Scorpius hoped that one day they would meet again, like the time in the library. Maybe then, he would leave it to fate.

The End

A/N: I hoped you liked it! Granted, this might be a little confusing. I wrote it over a long time so it's not so put together, but I hope it makes sense. The mood isn't really the same mood with the song, because the song is upbeat and kind of cheerful, but who cares? It reminded me of Rose and Scorpius. So, tell me what you think please!
