Spontaneous

Chapter Two

Rose insisted that Scorpius stop using charms to cut his hair. She claimed it was because they never worked quite right, and they made his head look lopsided. Scorpius conceded and promised to visit a Muggle barber the next morning, but Rose would have none of it.

"I'll cut it," she said. Scorpius would have argued, but he knew that to do so would be useless- when Rose Weasley gets an idea in her mind, there's no getting it out.

So that's how Scorpius found himself sitting on a stool in the kitchen with Rose studying and gently combing through his hair. The back of his neck still prickled when she brushed by; he kept forgetting to breathe.

"How's it going?" He asked, trying not to sound panicked. He knew that she was capable of cutting hair- she'd still be cutting Louis's if he'd let her - but it felt different when it was his own.

"Shh. . ." she replied. "Trust me."

'That's not what I'm having a problem with,' he thought. Of course he trusted her- he would be crazy not to- but he couldn't help but shiver under her touch. It took an eternity before she was done, but when she was, she stood before him with a small mirror and smug smile.

"See? That wasn't so bad, was it?" She kissed him lightly and turned to sweep up his fallen hair. Scorpius admired her work as he felt around to see if she'd left any bald spots- but she'd done a magnificent job. He smiled- part of him wondered if she wanted to do it just for the excuse it gave her to make him shiver.
