"Scorpius Malfoy!"
Scorpius sat bolt upright in his chair beside Rose`s bed. He turned his head to look at the door of the hospital wing, to stare right at Rose`s parents. Her father, who had just yelled his name, looked ready to strangle him. Her mother, on the other hand, just stared at Rose, pale faced and worried.
"Yes sir" he stuttered, looking at his face, that was red with anger.
"Can you tell me what the hell happened?" he yelled, taking a step towards Scorpius, who quickly got to his feet and mirrored with a step back.
"I went for a walk with Rose last night" he said quickly "and someone attacked her from inside the forbidden forest, so I brought her here."
"Who attacked her?" he yelled. Scorpius took another step back.
"I-I" he started, being interrupted by Rose`s dad.
"Who attacked her?" he screamed, raising his voice even louder than before.
"Ron!" his wife snapped, stepping forward and peeling her eyes off of Rose and looking at him "he doesn't know." But he continued to stare at Scorpius angrily.
"Yes he does" he said, quietly and slowly "he`s just a good liar." Scorpius sat down in his chair, fixing his gaze on Rose, studying her up and down. It hurt him deeply that even his girlfriend`s dad suspected him.
Not that it was wrongly so.
