Complete summary:
I deserve to be Head Girl.
I deserve to be friends with whoever I want
I deserve to be here.
As Rose deals with a crush that becomes infatuation then turns into falling head over heels in love and relatives who tell her she's an ugly worthless bitch who needs to appreciate her life, she might finally learn how to turn her life into Rose paradise with the help of her friends and maybe unexpected allies.
I sat there in the Heads Common Room staring at the fire with my Charms homework in my lap. I couldn't think straight.
Nothing was going right.
Yuki was almost raped, no one knows who it is, Lily's still a bitch, Al's been acting weird and avoiding me, James' quiet and doesn't talk, Jake's depressed, my grades are slowly sinking towards E's, Dominique's hiding out in her room for some weird reason, Scorpius and I haven't been getting anywhere, and Muggle Studies have been piling up homework.
You know, mum, dad, Uncle Harry, and Aunt Ginny said Hogwarts was fun. THIS ISN'T FUN.
"Hey Rose." Scorpius said opening the door. I looked up and smiled lightly.
"Hi." I said. "Where have you been?"
"Tutoring." He said quickly.
"Really?" I asked not really interested. "Who?"
"Lily." Wait. Back up. Did he just say Lily? What should I say to not sound jealous or reveal that I hate Lily?
"What did she need tutoring in?" I asked as he walked into his room.
"Potions."
"Oh yes. Potions can get very difficult." I said trying to cover up the venom I was about to spit out. "I think I'm gonna go look for Jake or Hugo." I said getting up quickly.
"Oh?" He asked poking his head out into view.
"Yea. I haven't talked to Hugo in a while and...Being family, we need to discuss what we're gonna get for our parents for Christmas." I said walking out the door. The door slammed behind me and I started walking down the stairs.
Life sucks.
I noticed Mr. Hark and Dominique talking in a corridor. They both had angry faces on and they looked like they were arguing.
"It's your fault!" She whispered harshly.
"So? You're the one who wants to stay at school!"
"Well I'm certainly not going home!"
"You should!"
"Have you met my mother? She's insane!" Uh...Aunt Fleur isn't much of a stickler for grades as my mum and dad...
"And being around teenage boys are a good idea?"
"Hey! It's not like I'm the only one around here getting attention!"
"You know I can't..."
"You can't do a lot of things." She said glaring at him. "Like take care of our child."
WOAH. WAIT UP. DID SHE JUST SAY OUR CHILD?
"You know I want to! But there's no one..." Dominique started crying. Mr Hark bent down next to her and held her close. "It's OK, Domi." Domi? Really? "We'll be OK..."
"Um..." I said looking at them. They looked up and jumped away from each other. "Wow...OK...So, sorry to be an eavesdropper, but..." I stared at the two of them and it was shocking. "You...I can't even say it." I glanced at Dom's stomach. "So you're pregnant?" I asked staring at it. She started sobbing again and nodded.
"Don't blame her Rose, I..."
"What the hell?" I asked. "Blame her? Why the crap would I blame her?" They stared in shock.
"You mean you don't think I'm an idiot?" Dom asked.
"Well...Not an idiot...Just a teenage girl who isn't thinking right." I said. "But it's not like I'm gonna shun you for dishonoring the Weasley name." She hugged me.
"Oh Rose." she said.
"So does anyone else know?" I asked.
"Lily." Dom said. Now I think you're an idiot. "But she promised not to tell anyone." You've now upgraded to moron.
"Yea...That was stupid of you." I said bluntly.
"What?" she asked. "It wasn't stupid."
"Could you please leave?" I asked Mr. Hark. He nodded and left. I assume he doesn't want to deal with a pregnant teenage girl. I looked back down at Dominique. "WELL, DOM. Lily's not that great of a secret keeper."
"She's our cousin Rose." Dom said. "I know you hate her and everything, but Rose it's not like she's a bad person." I sighed. I wasn't going to fight Dom on the subject of Lily Potter, the devil bitch.
"I think I'm gonna go now, Dom." I said trying to leave her. She held onto my legs tighter.
"Please don't leave me Rose. I need you. You're the only person I can depend on." Funny. What happened to Lily?
"Lil..."
"I...I need you Rose." she said. "You're...You're the only person who I can depend on. Lily's..Lily's a bitch and...You're..You're Rose." That doesn't make sense.
"Uh..."
"Please Rose?"
"What can I do Dom?" I asked her. "I've never been pregnant."
"But Rose. You're so intelligent and nice and..." Flattery... "You know, you're really pretty. I mean if I hung around you enough maybe your beauty will rub off on my child..." UH...weird way to try to make me help you..." Oh and..."
"Stop .Just stop, Dom. I'll help you if you stop saying weird things." She smiled and held onto me tighter.
"So...What now?" I asked after a 10 minute one-sided hug that was still going on.
Well, since this is like my first time talking to myself....
Hello. I'm Scorpius Malfoy and...
This is silly. I can't do this. This is supposed to be Rose's POV....
But then again other people like James and Yuki have had their POV's....So I guess it's OK. Let's start over.
Hello. I'm Scorpius Malfoy and I'm in love with Rose Weasley. No. I don't like her like other people like other people and they date, then break up and start to like other people. I'm in love with Rose to a point where if we were to get together, I would do everything in my power to keep her forever.
Is that creepy? No. It's not creepy. I...I just love her so much.
But I have to act cool, calm, and collected around her or else she'll be freaked out and never love me back.
You might ask since when I've liked her. Well...I've liked her ever since I've heard about her. Since her family's so famous, it's normal for her to be in the papers and everything. I remember in the news one time, they were celebrating her 5th birthday and Mr. and Mrs. Weasley went ALL OUT and every reporter was at that party and every picture they took involved Rose. She looked so beautiful in her little yellow flower print dress. I still have the article and pictures posted in my bedroom.
hahahahaha...NO. What are you talking about? I don't have a shrine dedicated to Rose Weasley in my room or a mini-one in my trunk at this moment...
MOVING ON.
Yea. I love her but she's always around her cousins and that guy...Jake. He's so weird. I bet he likes her. I mean what man can't like/love Rose?
GASP! What if she likes him BACK?????
I began to hyperventilate and panic. I started choking on air!
WHO WILL SAVE ME?
"OH MY...!!!! SCORPIUS!!!" My door slammed open and Rose rushed to my side as I was on the ground, choking on air. Behind her was Dominique Weasley staring at me with a freaked out look. "Are you OK?" Her sweet breath was blown into my face. I began to breathe it in.
"I'm...I'm fine now..." I said sighing and staring at her. OH MY...She's holding me...She's holding me....I have to put this in my journal....
WHAT? I don't have a journal. Don't read that line above this and tell me I'm wrong. I DO NO HAVE A JOURNAL DEDICATED TO ROSE WEASLEY. Or multiple journals....
"What happened?" Rose asked.
"I...I..." What could I say? I was just thinking about you and that Jake guy liking each other and I started to panic...NO! Bad idea! I can't just tell her the truth. HURRY! THINK FAST! "I.......You know what? It doesn't matter. What matters is that I'm OK..." I said. GO ME. I'm so smart.
"OK then.." she said getting up and away from me. AWWW NO....Stay here...
"Let's go somewhere else and talk, Rose." Dominique said. She glanced at my trunk. "Oh wow. This is a cool trunk...I was thinking of getting a new one, but their so expensive...Can I take a peek at the interior?" she asked opening the lid.
"AH! Sorry no!" I yelled jumping across the room. "I have ....some personal stuff in there...."
"Oh. Sorry then." Dominique said.
"Come on Dom. Let's go." Rose said. The two walked out and closed my door.
That was close. I opened my trunk and I saw a picture of Rose holding a rose. It was taken a few years ago on Take Your Child to Work Day and she went with her mom. The paparazzi followed them and had her hold him a rose outside the building. She looked so beautiful. I went with my father who worked there and I caught a few glimpses of her throughout the day.
My heart skipped so much that day. Much like everyday now.
"That was weird." Dominique said to me as we walked into the Great Hall.
"What?"
"Scorpius jumping across the room to protect his trunk."
"Well he is a guy, Dom." I pointed out.
"I know, but I think it's a little abnormal. Usually guys just let girls see."
"I think it's normal. Some guys just don't want you to know their secrets."
"I guess...but Scorpius doesn't seem to be one of those guys you know? I bet he's hiding something else."
"LIKE?" I asked her.
"I don't know. Maybe he's a HUGE Weird Sisters fan and he has a shrine dedicated to them in there...."
"Sure...Let's go with that." Way better than him having erotic magazines in there.
"Or he has pictures of girls. Like lots of girls. Or panties from his previous..."
"DOM!" I yelled. "Please stop with the weird ideas." I said staring at my cousin who was ruining the perfect image I have of the man I love.
"Well, Rose you never know..." She said.
"But come on, Dominique. It's Scorpius Malfoy..."
"Get rid of the image of perfection. Guys are pigs and you know it."
"Can't I keep one image?"
"This is reality, Rose. No guy is like what we want. There's always one flaw that annoys you."
"Oh shut up." I said hurrying away from what I wanted to believe was all a lie.
Overdue update I KNOW. But Life can be a bitch and sometimes you gotta suck it up and go with the flow. Unfortunately the flow did not include updating ANYTHING.
