Any of you guys actually like it? I personally like the fanfic and I know it's been a little slow but I think it picks up a bit towards the end. Review and tell me if you like it because I don't know if I should continue...

Chapter Three- Rose

I headed down to the Great Hall without anyone and tried to eat as quickly as possible, avoiding eye contact with everyone. Pig came soaring in with yet another letter, this one I could tell from my parents.

Rose! How could you let something like this happen?! On your first day of your fifth year you let your cousin and your BROTHER (yes since Teddy lives with us he does qualify as your brother) go and beat up your other brother! Tell me how that is ok! James said Hugo was being rude but we doubt it. Unless you can provide us with proof on how your brother, Hugo, was rude we won't punish him. Tell James he's getting a Howler from Aunt Ginny and he might want to not go in the Great Hall for a while. We're very disappointed in all of you. Especially you, Rose.

I sighed and folded the letter in my Potions book as I trekked around to find James, I finally found him walking down with Lily and Albus, Teddy no where to be seen.
"You're getting a Howler." I said coldly before I turned and walked away but not before he grabbed my arm.
"You can't seriously be mad at us! We only did what we did to protect you!" He said but I just scoffed.
"I knew we'd all get in heaps of trouble and Hugo would get off scot free, and he did!" James's eyebrows clenched together as he processed what I was saying.
"You mean Aunt Hermione didn't believe me? Just show her the letter!" He said and I shook my head, I couldn't.
"No, Hugo would get in trouble and I don't want him to get in trouble! He's my brother even if he said rude things!" I protested before turning around and running away, away from everyone who was sending me rude glares. I ran into the infirmary and saw Hugo lying on the hospital bed reading a big book.
"Hugo," I said softly and he put down his book for a second before continuing reading once seeing who I was. "Hugo I tried to stop them from going, I even sent you a warning letter!"
"I know, I received it but continued to throw it out after reading half of that rubbish." I was appalled at his behavior, he reminded me of what Dad had told me Uncle Percy was like when he was in school. Except this time I hoped Hugo would remember his family earlier then Percy who almost didn't come back to us.
"You are absolutely horrid Hugo Weasley!" I said angrily and he looked up at me, glaring.

"That is such an immature last name! We have such a big family I'm not sure I even want to be a Weasley!" He said and I looked at him in shock, I had always loved our big family.
"I swear you're going to turn out exactly like Uncle Percy!" I said before stomping out of the infirmary thoroughly annoyed.

I decided I'd never focus in class so I decided to skip, it wasn't unusual for me to skip, I'd done it quite often in my first year because I was homesick but I wasn't homesick now. I was sick of home.
I walked to the pond and relaxed while watching the clear reflective surface, hoping no one would notice me. But as luck would have it my Astrology Professor walked outside so I had to dodge back inside. I crept into the library and slipped into the far corner table where I sat down with a good book. If it was one thing we learned in my house was how to read. Our mother had taught us when we were two and we all secretly loved to read.

I was in the midst of learning about the elf war of 1216 when I felt someone standing in front of me; I looked up and saw Scorpius standing there! I looked at him and smiled slightly and he smirked.
"Granger, you're at my table." He said and I rolled my eyes, Granger? Where had that come from? I hadn't heard someone use my mother's maiden name in a while.

"Granger? Why? Also you can sit here, it's a table for four." I pointed our and Scorpius shrugged and sat down, his hair falling into his face. I noticed that lately he stopped gelling his hair back and started wearing it natural, which I didn't mind at all.
"Eh everyone here is a Weasley and you're too smart to be a Weasley and your mother was smart and her last name was Granger, make sense?" He asked and I laughed, my father told me to beat Scorpius at every test before I went to Hogwarts my first year and I had managed to keep that up all the way to my fifth year.
"Well I am smart so I guess that's correct," I said with a sly smile before opening my book back up but Scorpius wasn't done talking.
"Why'd you skip school?" He prompted and I rolled my eyes, he was really nosy, he could be a Weasley if he wanted to.
"'Cause I didn't feel like seeing people." I responded. "How about you? Why'd you skip?"
"Eh, it was getting annoying, all the teachers kept talking, although I'm not sure why." He leaned back in his chair with his hands behind his head and I giggled.
"Now why didn't you want to see people?" He asked and I shrugged but he gave me a look and I sighed.
"Fine, I got my best friend and my cousin in trouble and got my brother beat up." I hung my head and I heard Scorpius start to clap slowly, I looked up surprised.
"Rose Weasly finally did something interesting!" He exclaimed and I laughed, happy someone wasn't mad at me.
"You know my dad really doesn't like your dad," I said smirking and he rolled his eyes with a big grin, his white blonde hair slowly falling into his eyes.
"Eh, my dad was an ass to most people who 'weren't pureblood material'" I was glad to see Scorpius didn't agree with his father's earlier views of purebloods and mud bloods. Such an awful word, mud bloods, anger fills me whenever I think of what my mother went through.
"You're so nice to your father," I said laughing but Scorpius's face turned stone cold.
"You don't know what you're talking about Granger." He said and I reeled back, weren't we joking around a second ago?
"Whoa, chill, it was a joke, I know you're nothing like your dad was when he was in school." I said and Scorpius shook his head and leaned onto the desk, I put my hand forward and looked into his eyes.
"What's wrong?" I asked softly and Scorpius looked at me intently for what seemed like eternity before breaking his gaze and looking away.
"Nothing, forget it." He said and I knew enough not to pursue it.
"Ok… well wanna know what I was reading?" I asked and he shrugged his shoulders and I launched into an animated telling of the elf war of 1216.
"Wow that was…. actually interesting," Scorpius said and I smiled, pleased with myself. "Why can't you teach our class?" He joked and I smiled, content.
"I've really got to get to dinner, I need to face my friends sometime," I said with and with a small smile and nod of encouragement from Scorpius I left for the Great Hall.

I walked into the Great Hall and took a deep breath, time to go in. I sat down in between Albus and Alice, who was flirting with James from the other side of the table.
"Rose! Where have you been?!" Teddy exclaimed and Victoire sent me a death glare as Teddy hugged me. He now had ear length pink hair with blue streaks and green eyes.
"I was in the library, why?" I asked and Teddy smiled as I moved to sit next to him.
"We were worried! You weren't in class, Professor Longbottom almost made me go and look for you!" I laughed; Professor Longbottom was the Herbology teacher and actually thought I'd do well in Herbology, even though I would rather be an Auror as my dad.
"Rose was the one who got you in trouble in the first place Teddy!" Victoire pouted and I rolled my eyes, I didn't know what Teddy saw in Victoire in the first place.
"I was the one who got in the fight, it was my fault. And did you see Scorpius there? He completely ditched school after Astrology because he didn't 'see the point in looking at stupid stars'" Teddy laughed and I forced a tight smile.
"Nah, maybe he wasn't in the library." I said, I hated lying to Teddy but I couldn't tell him I hung out with Scorpius since I couldn't even believe it myself.

The rest of dinner was filled with laughs and smiles but I found myself alone in the dormitory after rushing to go to bed when Ace flew to me holding a small note.
"This better be good," I warned as I opened up the folded square letter.

Rose

I had fun in the library today and I needed something to lift my spirits, thank you.

Scorpius

I blushed at how much of a gentleman he was. I tucked the note under my pillow and slipped into a dreamless sleep.

Thanks to all of you who've read this far :)
