A/N: My first time writing these two. Reviews?
Albus/Scorpius
They sit together in the classes, in library, sometimes even during the meals and still Scorpius is afraid. He knows Al, he knows (or hopes to know) himself, everything should be clear, but that doesn't change anything: Scorpius is afraid. That's part of his personality, to be scared of changes and what they might bring with them. He hopes he could be more like Rigel, a rebellion from the day he was born, but he is not.
To Al everything seems to be so simple. He can touch Scorpius' hair and skin and barely notices it or how Scorpius' whole body stiffens. Al is not afraid of him or anything else.
They study together for the N.E.W.T.s and after few hours Al stretches and stands up. Scorpius could stay and study alone, but the thought isn't very alluring. They collect their books and quills and pieces of parchment and then it's time to say goodnight.
Scorpius feels suddenly courageous when his fingers climb up and down the skin of the other boy's arm carelessly. He has practised that gesture so long it looks natural and his nervousness doesn't ruin it (hopefully).
"Bye, Gryffindor."
Al shakes his head incredulously. "Don't be so childish. Slytherin."
He leaves with a pat to the top of Scorpius' head. Scorpius watches him go and touches the hair where Albus' fingers played a moment ago.
Someday he will be brave enough to.
