Hope it's not too late. Hope you like it. I don't own Harry Potter, if I did Dumbledore would have been in Slytherin!


"It was Fred, Louis and Rory." Rose stated. At this Neville let out a small gasp.

"Fred, Louis and Rory did what?" she asked.

"Everything. They've been bullying Scorpius since he started at Hogwarts. And it was them who attacked him today."

-x-y-z-a-b-c-

"Ms Weasley, these are extremely serious allegations that you are making here." McGonagall stated, her old grey eyes boring into Rose's.

"That doesn't make them any less true." Rose stated with certainty. 'Fuck them. Fuck all of them for thinking that they can do something like this repetitively to anyone and that they would get away with it.' It made her blood boil the more she thought about it. "I won't cover up for anyone who thinks it is okay to do such a thing, even if they are family." Rose stated.

"And quite rightly." McGonagall replied her voice a little warmer but her lips were soon pressed together again in a tight line.

"Do you have any idea what might have caused them to do such a thing, Rose?" Neville asked. The deputy head, and head of Gryffindor was slumped into a chair behind the headmistress, looking like he was still finding it terribly hard to accept the news. Rose didn't blame him, it was hard to believe herself, till she had seen Scorpius laying there, unconscious.

"Hate." Rose spat, facing down the professor with a look of rage that caused him to flinch. "Unwarranted, undeserved hate. And perhaps ridiculous sense of righteousness."

"Yes, but anything that might have incited what happened this morning?" he pushed, meeting her glare.

'Crap, he saw us didn't he.' Rose thought frantically, as she remembered how the professor had stumbled upon the two of them wrapped around each other

"To put it diplomatically, it became common knowledge last night that Scorpius and I hadn't been entirely truthful about how well we urm... got along." Rose stated, flushing deeply red as the headmistress gave her a glare. It was clear that she knew exactly what Rose meant by that. 'Great, you've now just confessed to cheating to the headmistress.' the voice in her head stated. 'I'm never speaking to Scorpius again.' Rose resolved at first. But then as images of him covered in bandages flooded her mind she changed her tune. "Still, it is no excuse for what they did." she stated strongly.

"Thank you Ms. Weasley. Perhaps it would be best if you wait downstairs for a while. Also I would appreciate it if you would send up your two cousins and Mr Finnegan."

Rose nodded and made her way to the staircase. It had to be one of the longest journeys she had ever made. She felt like a spectator as she watched her mind split into two and begin to do battle with herself.

'They're all going to hate me now, Fred, Louis, Uncle Bill, Uncle George.' one part of her cried out despondently.

'Well good. Why would I want to be liked by anyone who could endorse such disgusting behaviour.' her other half responded.

'You're turning your back on your family for a prat.'

'Sure, he is a prat. But he's never done anything worse than I have. In fact, I'm the one who cheated, not him.'

'Still a prat.'

'Even prats deserve to be treated fairly.'

By the time Rose had reached the bottom of the staircase she was very sure that she'd have to watch out, lest she ended up being placed in St. Mungos for having multiple personality syndrome.

Rose walked out of the stairwell to find a number of her family looking at her warily. Her parents were standing with her Uncle discussing something in hushed tones. However what was noticeable to Rose had to be Louis, Fred and her soon to be ex-boyfriend. Louis and Rory were both looking extremely pale and Rose would swear that even Fred looked two shades paler than was possible for a mixed race boy.

Rose glared at the three of them. Louis approached her anyway, ambling towards her slowly, the strawberry blonde boy clearly fearful of the fate that awaited him.

"So what did you tell her?" he asked quietly. Rose was certain that if she hadn't watched his lips she would have sworn nobody had said anything at all.

"Everything." Rose replied strongly, drawing the attention of everyone to her again.

"Everything?" he repeated, looking at her, fear now even more apparent on his face.

"Yes, everything. I told her that you three shitheads have been going out of your way bully people just because of who their parents are. And I certainly told them that you fucks are responsible for the current state of Scorpius." she responded. She watched as a look of panic fell onto all of the three boys faces.

"Why Rosie, why?" Fred asked, his eyes almost looking like he was going to cry. "It's just Malfoy. You never liked him anyway."

"Don't you dare fucking cry. You don't get to cry, not after what you did to him." she replied coldly. And then she raised her voice so everyone in the vicinity could hear. "The headmistress would like to see you three upstairs by the way. I suggest you prepare whatever excuses you have for your despicable actions." She then walked over to where the elder Weasleys were stood without sparing a second glance at the boys who were sure to be shaking with fear by now.

Rose's father, gave her a hard look which Rose met without flinching. At this his eyes softened.

"Rose can we talk?" he asked tentatively.

"Talk." she fired back.

"In private." he clarified. "Please."

"Fine." and then she without a glance back Rose walked towards the door to an empty classroom. She stepped in and as her father followed she flicked her wand lazily at the door causing it to shut.

"Wandless magic." her father stated with a grin. "You've always had your mother's brains."

Rose just looked at him.

"I'm sorry." he stated.

"What?" Rose repeated in shock. The last thing she had expected was an apology from her father. She was very sure that he had been about to chew her out for daring to choose to stick up for a Malfoy over her own family.

"You shouldn't even be speaking to me." he then said, his voice dripping with regret. "I should never have called you a... a... Fuck I can't even say it."

Rose watched as her Dad failed to repeat what had slipped from his tongue so easily before and she felt bad.

'He's always been like that, speak first, think about his actions later. And really I'm no better.' she realised.

"It's okay." Rose responded.

"No its not!" he growled. "None of what I've said today is okay!" he stated, throwing his hands up for emphasis. His voice then softened. "Rose, I won't lie to you. I'm very disappointed that you did something like that to Rory. But that doesn't excuse any of what I said today. I'm proud that I have a daughter that stands up for what's right even when it's difficult."

Rose nodded, not entirely sure how she was supposed to respond. However her Dad took two paces towards her and enveloped her in a warm embrace.

"I really am proud of you. Though I have to admit I'm not entirely sure or pleased that you've suddenly decided to mix with Malfoy after claiming to hate him for the last 5 years."

"Daddy, I have no clue why either." Rose admitted. "I wish I did." she then stated wistfully. 'Merlin would my life be easier if I understood why my body refused to listen to my head around him.' "I mean, he's such an arrogant prat."

Her father grinned at this.

"Well if that's the case, just don't come home telling me you love the boy or something. Because then I'll seriously have to revaluate whether you did actually inherit your mother's brains." he stated grinning. "Anyway kiddo, why don't we go see how those cousins of yours are faring." his face falling into a frown as he said the word cousins. Rose nodded.

The two of them walked back in a comfortable silence and Rose honestly felt better than she had done since the awful day had started.

The feel good feeling that had come with the reconciliation with her father didn't last long however. As they arrived back at the staircase the three boys were just exiting the staircase. And by the looks on their faces, things had gone terribly. Rose also noticed that her boyfriend's father had now arrived. Seamus Finnegan was conversing with her mother in hushed tones. The two of them turned over to face her. Her mother gave her father a look to which he responded with another and then she gave the two of them a warm smile.

'God that is disgusting.' Rose thought. 'They don't even have to speak to communicate.' She then glanced at Mr. Finnegan who returned her look with a glare before turning his back to her to face his son. 'Great, I'm guessing he knows what I did to his son too. Oh who am I kidding? Everyone knows.'

Rose walked over to Louis who had stood against the wall before sliding down and dropping his face into the palms of his hands.

"So?" Rose asked, her voice emotionless.

"Suspension, till Malfoy wakes. Then when his side of the story is told the board will vote on whether to expel us or not." he replied following it with a sigh.

Rose nodded and walked back to her mother, not wanting to offer any words of consolation or reassurance.

'They deserve to be expelled.' Rose reasoned.

"So what's happening to the three boys?" her mother asked.

"Suspended till Malfoy wakes up and tells his story." Rose replied. "And then the board of directors will vote on whether to expel them."

"I'm guessing that is just a formality." her mother replied, a glancing sadly at the three boys.

"I should hope so." Rose replied. "They deserve it." to which her mother just gave her a stern look.

"What would you say to me, if I had been bullying a boy for his entire Hogwarts career and then beaten him within an inch of his life?" Rose replied back matching her mother's look.

"Well, when you put it like that." Hermione stated in a resigned tone. "Still, this really isn't good for any of us. I can just see Rita Skeeter's headlines in the prophet, 'The Boy Who Lived Nephews: EXPELLED'."
whilst holding her hands up and dragging them apart for emphasis.

Rose nodded. That really wouldn't be such a good thing. Her family was used to scrutiny from the media out of Hogwarts, though it had died down over the years, however it never really took much for them to make the headlines.

As Rose dwelt on her mother's words, Professor Neville appeared.

"You three follow me please." he stated emotionlessly pointing at each of the three boys. He then walked off without saying a word and the boys followed him, resigned looks on their face.

"So what do we do now?" her mother asked looking towards both Rose and Ron.

"Well, I guess you two can go back to work." Rose replied.

"No, I want food." Ron stated. "Isn't it lunch time now?" he then asked looking at his watch.

"Yeah." Rose replied realising she also felt rather hungry too.

Hermione just rolled her eyes at this.

"You two and food. I'll never understand." she stated, shaking her head slowly. "Anyway, let s go. It would be nice to get a chance to see how Hugo is doing."

-x-y-z-a-b-c-

Rose wanted to disappear.

'Please just let the ground swallow me whole.' she pleaded. The moment she had walking into Great Hall all conversations had stopped immediately. And all eyes turned towards her. It was so quiet that one could have heard a pin drop. There just wasn't a single voice that could be heard.

Her father however seemed totally unbothered by this.

"Hello everyone!" he greeted with a grin, followed by an over-emphasized wave. "I don't have something on my face do I?" he then questioned. Ron waved his wand in a circle, conjuring up a mirror before using it in a comical manner to check his face.

People began to laugh and giggle left right and centre.

"Thanks dad." Rose said warmly. And then she caught sight of her mother's face and she felt sick again. The look of love and adoration that adorned Hermione's face was nothing less that totally nauseating.

"What? I really thought there was something on my face." he replied grinning. "Anyway, let's go and eat, the turkey roast is always delicious."

The three of them sat down on the Gryffindor table. Her parents sat by her brother whilst Rose sat down with Lily and Roxanne.

"So where is Fred." Roxanne asked the shaking in her voice betraying her nerves.

"Packing." Rose replied.

"They're being expelled?" Lily asked, her voice raised. This caught the eyes of a few more on the table.

"Not yet. The school board has to vote on it first." Rose replied.

"This is your fault." Roxanne muttered darkly.

"What?" Rose asked, in shock, not entirely sure she had heard Roxanne correctly.

"I said this is your fault." Roxanne replied, giving Rose a scathing look.

"How the fuck is this my fault?"

"Why did you have to go fuck Malfoy of all people? If it had been anyone else this wouldn't have happened. But no, you had to go fuck the one guy you knew would cause as much trouble as possible." she replied.

Rose stared at her dark skinned cousin unable to say anything.

"Like you can talk." Lily scoffed. "Isn't it you that is caught snogging a different boy in a broom cupboard every week by me?"

"That's different." Roxanne replied.

"How? I seem to remember you telling me that you lost your virginity to Alfonso Zabini in a broom closet whilst you were still dating Lysander." Lily replied coldly. "So you are not at liberty to say anything about Rose when you are worse."

"You're such a fucking bitch! I told you not to tell anyone that and yet here you are telling the whole world!" Roxanne shouted before standing up and storming off.

Rose leaned in and offered her gratitude.

"No problem. She's been driving me crazy all day saying things about you and Scorpius." Lily replied. "I must say though. I'm a little curious as to how it happened. Actually, no, scratch that I know exa-"

Lily was interrupted midway by another shouting match that had just begun outside the hall.

"YOU SEE WHY I SAID YOU SHOULD HAVE SENT HIM TO DRUMSTRANG NOW?" the voice yelled.

"Father, put the boy down this instant!" the other voice replied.

"You were far too soft on him. And letting him mix with blood traitors like the Weasleys too. Didn't I teach you anything?"

"In the case that you've forgotten, your own wife is considered a blood traitor!" the other voice retorted.

And then they walked into the hall, everyone looking at them in shock.

Lucius Malfoy was walking with his wand held out. In front of his wand was a boy that was lying flat, bound up in ropes and being levitated. Rose instantly recognised the boy as her boyfriend.

"Oh for fuck sake." Rose groaned, dropping her face into her hands. She just couldn't believe the events that had been occurring. It hadn't even been 24 hours since she had slept with Scorpius and it was as if she had been transported to a parallel world that was full of outlandish, ridiculous events. Everyone had gone mad.

"Rose!" her mother reprimanded.

"Mr. Malfoy, put that boy down at once." Professor McGonagall called out.

"As you wish, Professor." he drawled. The elderly man retracted his wand and Rory fell straight down at a rate that would have certainly knocked him out, had he not already been unconscious. "Now I think we have to talk about what this student of yours just tried to do."

"Now is neither the time or place Lucius." she replied.

"No! We will discuss how you let a boy who already brutally assaulted my grandson out of constant watch to give him the chance to attempt to obliviate him!" he growled. At this gasps went up around the room.

'Just who the fuck have I been dating?' Rose asked herself. The person she was learning about today seemed completely different to the boy she had first agreed to date. The boy she had first agreed to date had been a sweet, though maybe a little arrogant. However this boy was a monster. Nothing less than that.

"I should have you fired for even letting the first incident occur." Lucius then stated.

"Father, you are being unreasonable. Let's just eat and discuss this later." Draco stated.

"Unreasonable?" he replied turning around to give his son a hard glare. "In case it has escaped your attention, my grandson has been bullied by that filthy family from the moment he entered this school!"

"Even then, this is not the place to discuss it!" his son replied, matching the hard glare from the older white haired man. "Now sit down before you force me to cast the imperius curse on you!"

"You know what, forget this. Clearly you think you can sort this out by yourself. I'll be in the hospital wing with your wife making sure that nobody else decides to attack Scorpius." he then stated turning around and walking off, ignoring Rory's unconscious body.

"Sorry about this Professor." Draco apologised, before moving to the Slytherin table and taking a seat beside Xander Nott.

The moment he sat down, the hall descended into pandemonium. Everyone was talking loudly about what had just happened. Rose however just watched shell-shocked as the binds that were around Rory were cut by Professor Flitwick. This was followed by him being brought back to consciousness.

Rose strained her ears over the noise to hear Professor McGonagall who was talking to the charms master and Head of Ravenclaw.

"Can you take the boy to your office with his father and let him use the Floo network home. It will probably be better if we send his luggage. But he needs to go now." she stated.

"What are you going to do?" he asked.

"I need to go and see Madame Pomfrey to see how Scorpius is." she replied. Rose watched as her face sagged with age as she said the sentence, it was as if this one event had taken 10 years to ooccur. "If I know Lucius, in all likelyhood that boy is going to find himself hauled up in front of the Wizengamot by the end of the day anyway." she stated, following with a sigh.

Rose gasped.

' Wizengamot? He's going to be sent to Azkaban?'

"What wrong Rose?" Lily asked.

"Lucius is going to have Rory bought before the Wizengamot." Rose replied. Even as she said it, she knew it was true. Sure the Malfoy's had lost their reputation, but they still had money. And money meant that they could at least bribe somebody into taking this case seriously. "He'll be sent to Azkaban!" Rose exclaimed.

"And?" Lily replied.

"That's going too far!" she replied. "Sure, expel him, but Azkaban?"

"Rose, he tried to wipe Scorpius' memories clean to cover up what he did." Lily replied.

"Wait, why are you so Pro-Scorpius?" Rose asked. She realised that she had never even heard Lily say one bad thing about him in all the time she had been around her.

"He's a nice boy." Lily replied. Rose scrunched up her nose.

"He is not nice!" she replied.

"I beg to differ." Lily replied. "In fourth year I saw these three 7th year Slytherin boys bullying a second year Ravenclaw, Scorpius saw them too marched up to them wand out and used Incarcerous wrapping the three of them up and then he taught the boy how to hex them."

Rose nodded. It fit exactly with the boy she had been beginning to see glimpses of since the year had begun. It was no surprise at all that he detested bullying.

"I guess he can be nice if he wants to." Rose conceded. "Still a prat though." Lily rolled her eyes at this.

"You just think that because he's the only person that challenges you." Lily replied. "Well that and the fact that you two obviously have unwanted sexual tension." she tacked on as an afterthought.

"We do not have-" Rose began to reply, indignant.

"Rose." Lily replied, arching an eyebrow at her.

"Shut up." Rose replied flushing red. "Anyway, where is your brother?"

"He went for a fly, saying he couldn't stand waiting around for news." Lily replied. Rose nodded. It was just like Al.

-x-y-z-a-b-c-

Pain. Immense pain. It was like his face, arms and legs were all on fire.

Scorpius let out a groan and slowly opened his eyes. Immediately light assaulted them and Scorpius closed them again.

"Scorpius, darling, you awake?" a sweet voice asked. His mother. He shook his head.

'I really wish I wasn't.' he thought. All he wanted was to escape the pain. He opened his eyes again to find his mother looking at him, her hair pulled back into a loose pony tail and

"You okay?" she asked.

Scorpius opened his mouth to answer, but at first nothing came out.

'Great.' He then tried again.

"Painkillers, now." he grunted.

"Of course. Let me go and get Madame Pomfrey." his mother stated before walking off.

It was as she walked off that the memory of what had happened to him flooded back into his head. Initially he tried to put pressure onto his wrists to sit up, but when he felt a fire-like pain shoot up his arms he stopped and just leaned upwards with his abdomen instead. The whole way through he was assaulted by a throbbing pain there.

'Those fucking three. I'll kill them!' Scorpius swore to himself. Eventually he was in a position to take a look at himself.

From what he could see, all his broken bones had been mended. But everything was still super painful.

'Thank merlin for magic. If I was with a muggle doctor I'd be here for a month.'

"Master Malfoy. You should not be sitting up!" Madame Pomfrey stated with an irritable look. "But whilst you are, drink this." she stated pushing a small flask with a straw sticking out to his mouth. Scorpius captured the straw between his lips and began to suck the liquid down. It was horrifically bitter but the moment it touched his stomach he felt a soothing feeling radiate through his body.

"That is amazing." he stated with a grin. "Thank you." he then looked around the room to see that his mother had disappeared. "Do you know where my mother went?" he asked.

"She said she went to go and retrieve your father now that you're awake." she replied. "So how are you feeling?" she then asked, casting a critical eye over the injured boy.

"I've seen better days." Scorpius replied.

"I must warn you, the Headmistress will likely be here soon to question you about what happened. Do you remember?"

"Wait, why would the headmistress be coming?" Scorpius asked.

"Rose Weasley told her that you were assaulted by Rory Finnegan, Louis and Fred Weasley."

"Wait what?" he asked his voice a little louder.

'She tattled on her own cousins to the headmistress about this? Her own family?' Scorpius was having a very hard time believing it. He had always assumed that the Weasley family always stuck together.

"Is it true?" the healer asked tentatively. Scorpius nodded. "Anyway, Professor McGonagall will want to speak to you before she makes any decisions as to what happens to those three boys. Though I am 100% certain that Master Finnegan will be expelled. Good riddance to him too."

"Why Rory?" Scorpius asked. 'Why is his expulsion a certainty but not the other two if they all three were there?' he wondered.

"Master Finnegan attempted to sneak into here to obliviate you however your grandfather caught him in the act." the healer explained.

Scorpius growled at this.

'So it wasn't enough to beat me to a pulp, he tried to obliviate me too. If they don't expel him, Nott is going to kill him.'

"Urm, Madame Pomfrey?" Scorpius asked.

"Yes dear?"

"Have any of my friends been here?" he then asked.

'Where the heck are they, I'd have thought they would be here standing guard after something like this!'

"Yes, Master Nott, Miss Yaxley and Miss Weasley have all been to visit, but I told them to leave so you could rest."

"Rose Weasley?" Scorpius asked in disbelief. The healer nodded. Scorpius was pleasantly surprised. It had never occurred to him that the obnoxious girl would actually care what had happened to him considering she came from the Weasley family. But apparently he had grossly underestimated her sense of justice as she had turned in her own family.

At this point the double doors of the medical bay swung open and plenty of animated voices could be heard talking. Scorpius turned to see his mother, his father and Amelia all walking towards him. They stopped talking the moment they saw him. Scorpius strenuously lifted and arm and waved at them.

"Scorpius!" Amelia cried out rushing forward and gripping him in what was a rather painful hug.

"Geez. That hurts." he stated with a grin.

"Oh crap!" she replied drawing back, giving him a once over.

"Hey kiddo. How you feeling." His father asked.

"Like crap." Scorpius replied honestly, with a grin.

"If it helps, I'm sure that Finnegan boy is too after what my father did to him." Draco replied, matching his son's grin.

"Granddad is here?" he asked, a little worried. He knew how is Grandfather could be once he got angry.

"Yeah. He caught Finnegan just before he tried to obliviate you and then wrapped him up with the incarcerous spell before proceeding to hit the fool with a stream of hexes." Draco responded.

"Ah." Scorpius responded his grin growing wider. 'Serves that asshole right.' "Where's Xander?" Scorpius then asked turning to Amelia.

"He went to go get the Weasley girl." she growled.

"What?" Scorpius exclaimed. There was a development he had not expected. Scorpius watched as his father muttered a bunch of curses under his breath.

"Yeah, he said that she would want to see whether you were okay. After all she was the one that warned us about Rory." she stated. "He seems to think quite highly of her at the moment." Amelia explained.

"I don't know why. She's the one that got you into this mess." his father drawled.

"That's not entirely true." Scorpius replied.

"You mean to say you sought out the girl I specifically told you to stay away from on your first day?" his father asked shaking his head.

"Oh Draco, I'm sure she's not that bad." His mother chimed in. "She did stick up for Scorpius after all."

"Not that bad?" Draco repeated, not noticing that two more people had entered the room. "Have you read any of his letters over the years? She's an obnoxious know it all just like her mother!"

"Hey Xander, Weasley." Scorpius greeted, before descending into a fit of laughter at his father's terrible time. However he had to stop as it was a rather painful experience on him.

"Hey Scor, I thought I'd bring your girlfriend along. She seemed worried about you enough earlier." Xander said.

"Girlfriend?" his father muttered with a shake of his head. "This boy is out to kill me."

Scorpius laughed a little again before looking towards Rose who was just staring at him.

"You okay there Rose? Or did someone petrify you?" he asked with a grin.

"Oh merlin, he even calls her by her first name." Draco then muttered.

"You... you... you!" she spat struggling to get her words out as she stared at him. "Why the hell aren't you trying to kill me?" she exclaimed angrily as her eyes began to water.

"Why would I want to do that?" Scorpius asked confused.

"You idiot! I'm the reason you're in that bed!" she stated a tear running down her cheek.

"Listen you silly little know it all, you aren't responsible for this. If anything I should be thanking you." Scorpius replied.

"Hey I'm not little!" the red haired girl protested before breaking down into sobs. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry..." she kept on repeating.

"Merlin this is worse than I thought." Draco drawled as everyone looking towards the sobbing girl. His wife responded with a sharp elbow to his ribs.

"Rose, come here." Scorpius commanded. The girl walked over wordlessly as the rest of the room watched. 'What the hell are you doing?' part of his brain asked as the other half commanded the crying girl to come closer. 'Seriously Scorpius think about this!' it exclaimed. But he simply shoved the metaphorical dark angel that was hanging on the left side of his shoulder away.

As Rose reached his bedside, Scorpius leaned forward and captured her in his arms. She leaned down towards him also wrapping her hands around her.

'Damn she still smells really good.' Scorpius thought offhandedly.

"Don't cry. I'm really grateful for everything you did today." he whispered into her ear. "Anyway I'd have to severely downgrade my impression of you if this is all it takes for you to cry."

"Oh get fucked!" Rose spat, hitting him lightly with a grin.

"Already did." Scorpius replied. "Remember?"

"Touch ." Rose stated with a giggle coming through her voice.

Suddenly the doors smashed open again.

"MALFOY, GET YOUR BLOODY HANDS OFF MY DAUGHTER AT ONCE!" a voice cried out. Scorpius looked over to see Ronald Weasley marching towards him with a scowl on his face.

"What an unpleasant surprise Weasley." his father stated turning around wand in hand to face the intruder.

"Oh shit." Scorpius and Rose sighed at the same time, before looking at each other with a grin.

And in the true manner of Sod's Law the double doors were opened again.

"SCORPIUS MALFOY, WHAT IN MERLINS NAME ARE YOU DOING WITH THAT WEASLEY GIRL?" his grandfather yelled out.

"Calm down, father, he's just hugging her." Draco replied with a sigh.

"He's... he's... he's" his grandfather stuttered helplessly. And then the whole room watched as eldest Malfoy in the room slumped forward and fell to the floor.

"Crap, I think he's fainted!" Xander exclaimed.
