"Hey Rose" Lucy said as she took a seat at the table that Rose was sitting at. Rose looked up annoyed, and then smiled upon realizing it wasn't a Potter boy.
"Hey Lucy, how`s it going?" she asked, pushing her Charms homework away from her momentarily.
"Fine" she said idly "you?"
"Not very good" Rose said, frowning slightly "all the boys are acting weird. But like, weirder than the usual weird."
"That`s weird" Lucy said, rolling her eyes at Rose`s awkwardness. The two laughed as Lucy continued at her master plan. "So" she said, trying to keep her tone sounding casual "Scorpius is cute right?"
"What?" Rose asked, blinking at Lucy. Had she heard right?
"Scorpius Malfoy, do you think he`s cute?" she asked again.
"I guess so" Rose said, blushing.
"You guess so?" she asked.
"Yes alright, he`s cute" Rose said, lowering her voice. Lucy smiled, she was making progress.
"Would you ever go out with him?" she asked, leaning forward to hear her better.
"I don't think he likes me that way" Rose said shyly, dropping her gaze.
"Oh, I know he likes you that way" Lucy sang, circling her head for effect. Rose smiled.
"You think so?" Rose asked, her eyes sparkling. Lucy nodded, looking very satisfied.
"I know so" she said, taking Rose`s hand and whispering in her ear "so go kiss him." Rose stood up from the table quickly, pulling away from Lucy.
"I will" she said, nodding at Lucy "thanks Lucy."
"Anytime."
