Onto fifth year! YAY!

I hope you like this chapter. It is Rose and Scorpius's first bit of jealousy! I am very excited about that. Of course they don't admit that it is jealousy! That would be weird. Okay so anyway, enjoy please!!!!

Please keep reading and reviewing, I like to think I have people interested in my stories.

Enjoy!

Disclaimer: I do not any part of Harry Potter. *searches around the room* nope, still nothing.

Fifth year! Wow, we were already over half way through our school life. It's a weird thought.

I got made a Slytherin prefect by the way, along with Lisa (Zabini). Of course I knew who the Gryffindor prefects were going to be before I had seen them (for the record, when I did my thoughts were proven correct), Potter and Weasley.

When I walked into the prefect's compartment on September the first I didn't bother to acknowledge the fact that Potter and Weasley were there. I knew they were going to be, they knew I was going to be. There was nothing to say to each other. I sat down next to Lisa and we had talked for most of the journey.

I remember Vincent asking me who the prefects were. Sometimes my friend can be a real moron.

Flashback……

"Knew you'd get that." Vincent said as we sat down at the Slytherin table for the start of term feast, he was pointing at my prefect's badge. "Who are the other prefects?"

"It's Lisa and I from Slytherin, Corner and Patil from Ravenclaw and Abbott and Smith from Hufflepuff." I told him.

"Who's from Gryffindor?" he asked. I raised my eyebrows; sometimes my best friend could be very thick.

I then gave him a look that said very clearly 'Who'd ya think?'

He caught on this time and said "Potty and the Weasel then."

I nodded, smiling at the nicknames we had taken off my dad. Apparently that's what he called Potters dad and Weasleys dad.

We got our results back from fourth year. I beat Weasley in DADA again. But she bet me by a mile in Transfiguration. We came equal for Potions; she got quite a bit better than me in Ancient Runes. She bet me by one point for everything else.

But its OWL's this year which means that both of us can actually get top. Good thing that with OWL' there are only 6 possible marks (Outstanding, Exceeds Expectations, Acceptable, Poor, Dreadful and Troll) which means it will be easier to get the same marks as her. I have a feeling this year will be my year. But I am also looking forward to the challenge, who knows what talents Weasley will show?

Speaking of talents did you know someone asked her out!

Flashback….

I had just come up from the dungeons to breakfast when I saw Weasley talking to some guy. He was in Gryffindor; I think his name was David Finnigan.

"Hey Rose." He was saying.

"Yes Dean?" she said, oh so it was Dean, not David.

"Would you like to go on a date with me?" he said. I stood there in shock. This weird feeling coming through my body, it was weird. Really weird.

"Um no thanks Dean. I'm sorry." She said and then she turned away and walked into the great hall. Finnigan looked crushed. I felt a happier feeling in my stomach. Now that was really weird as well. I blamed that feeling on the fact that I still hadn't eaten. The other strange feeling? Well I think that was shock. I mean, who would even think about asking Weasley out? A moron that's who!

I walked into the hall, saw Vincent and went to sit down at the Slytherin table.

"The weirdest thing happened just then." I told Vincent as I helped myself to a piece of toast from the stack in front of me.

"What?" Vincent asked his mouth full of egg.

"Well first of all, that's disgusting and secondly, someone asked Weasley out! I mean who would have believed it?"

"Well actually mate, I can believe it." He said.

"WHAT!" I shouted horrified at what my best friend had said. People started staring at me. I ignored them.

"Calm down Scorp, gosh!" Vincent said, he only continued when people went back to their own businesses. "You have to see where I'm coming from. I mean, think about it for a moment mate, that you and Rose had never hated each other," I snorted. "I said imagine!" he continued. "So imagine you never hated her, you family had never hated each other. Imagine she wasn't a know-it-all."

"But she is a know it all," I explained, "you can't take pieces of her personality away in this hypothetical situation or else I'm not actually talking about Rose Weasley."

"Fine then. So pretend you didn't hate her and she wasn't a Weasley. What would you think of her then?" He asked me.

"I'd still hate her." I said, somewhat untruthfully.

"Uh huh." Vincent said, giving me a look which stated only to clearly that he didn't believe a word of what I had just said.

"Fine, maybe" I laid a delicate stress on the world, "if she wasn't a Weasley, and maybe if I didn't hate her, then maybe I could see what you mean."

"Not totally there, but it's a start." Vincent said as he helped himself to some toast.

That was definitely a weird moment in my year.

On a different note, a girl in my year asked me out. Her name is Lavender, she is a Slytherin so don't worry about me crossing over to the dark side (Gryffindor). We went out for about a month, and then I dumped her because she was WAY too clingy.

Don't you just hate clingy blondes who think they're better than everyone else? Yeah, I sure do.

Slytherin got into the finals of the Quidditch cup this year! We were so pleased because we didn't manage to get into the finals last year (it was Ravenclaw vs. Gryffindor). This year though it was Slytherin vs. Gryffindor. Unfortunately we lost. Potter grabbed the snitch just before me. Potter's brother (James I think his name is, he's the captain anyway) and his cousin (Fred I think) were the beaters and they were very good (as much as it pains me to say it). The thing that annoyed me the most about the game was not the fact that Potter caught the snitch, not the fact that his brother almost killed me (well maybe that's a bit of an exaggeration) when he sent a bludger at me, not the fact that we lost the game and the cup. No, it was Rose Weasley. She saved almost every goal. And when I say almost I don't mean, 5/7 of the goals or 3/4 or 2/3 I mean she only missed one and that was because there was a bludger coming at her. She was really good, I didn't want to believe it but it's the truth and it sucks. Sucks more than her cousin grabbing the snitch before I could, more than her cousin almost sending me to the ground with a bludger, more than losing the game (350-10) and the Quidditch cup. It sucked a lot. When I told Vincent this he responded "You need to sort out your priorities." And I have to agree with him.

Why Weasley being a really good keeper gets me more annoyed than losing the Quidditch cup by a massive 340 points? I don't know. And quite frankly I don't want to know because Weasleys and Malfoys just don't mix and I'm not going to go and change centuries of prejudice over one weird feeling. Okay so maybe two weird feelings.

…………………………………………………………………….

Scorpius-I'm so perfect-Malfoy gets me so annoyed! It's not just one thing, it's everything he does! Whether it be put his hands through his perfect blonde hair, or answer a question before I can, whether it be beating me at Quidditch (which only happened once and it was only by 10 points, unlike us thrashing them 350-10 in the finals), or smirking when he sees me.

ARGH! He just gets me so angry.

The time I got the angriest this year I can only remember all too well, and I'm not even sure why I was angry. I'm pretty sure it was his arrogance plus my shock that someone would actually WANT to go out with him.

Flashback……

I was in the library studying with Albus one day; I was helping him with his potions. Al just isn't good with that sort of thing, he didn't get his Grandmother's genes on that one. It doesn't matter though; we all have our strengths and weaknesses.

We had been there for a few hours when I heard two people.

"Scorpius?" I heard someone call out in this prissy voice. I hated when girls acted all girly to get boys attention, especially someone doing it for Scorpius Malfoy, I mean how low could you go? I turned around and saw outside the windows of the library there were two people there.

One of them was a Slytherin girl in our year. Her name is Lavender Nott. She has long blonde hair and the kind of figure most girls would kill for. Her eyes are that deep blue colour that makes guys melt at, well the guys at Hogwarts at least, including some of my cousins. I pity her taste though, because guess who's standing next to her?

Scorpius Malfoy that's who. His perfect blonde hair, perfectly messy as always, his grey eyes alight with interest. His mouth not set in a smirk; this was a rarity for me to see because he almost always wore a smirk when we interacted.

"Yes Lavender?" he was saying.

"Um…well…." She pretended to be struggling with what she was saying, playing with a strand of her long blonde hair. Ergh, I hated girls like her. Girls who thought they were perfect just because they could get any guy they wanted. "I was thinking maybe, if you want to…."

ARGH! This girl was the most aggravation person I had ever met, stretching it out, making herself seem shy so that he wouldn't reject her. Whoa, back track, SECOND most aggravating person I had ever met. Malfoy will forever hold the top spot on my most aggravating list. And my most annoying list. And my most arrogant list. And my jerk list...I really need to stop making lists.

"Go out with me sometime?" she finished, looking up at him and batting her eyelashes. It made me want to throw up.

Please say no, please say no, she's a dumb, clingy blonde, please say no, she only likes you because you are a good Quidditch player and because of your good looks, please say no, please say no, please say no… I heard myself thinking.

"Sure. Ok." He said. As he said this, this weird, strange feeling came over me. Shock. Yup, that was it but I was also really angry. The angriest I had felt in a long time.

I was only angry, I reassured myself, because he was just so arrogant, smiling along that whole time, knowing what she was going to say but not saying anything. And of course this shock was mixed in with my anger, making me angrier. Angry that someone couldn't actually see Scorpius jerk-face Malfoy for who he really was.

They walked away, arm in arm and it made my ears glow red with anger. I turned around.

"Someone's jealous." My dear cousin said.

"What?" I replied. The anger going away but my ears were still very red. I'd have to remember to thank dad for those genes I thought sarcastically.

"You just listened, or eavesdropped is a better word, on Nott and Malfoy's conversation and your ears got redder and redder which means you are feeling embarrassed, angry or jealous. I'd go with the latter." Al explained.

"What? I'm not jealous! I'm just shocked." I protested.

"Uh huh." Al said, he clearly didn't believe what I had just said.

"Well maybe I'm angry because someone can actually ask Malfoy out, not seeing any of his flaws. His arrogance, his cockiness, his personality in general. Then there is…" I started.

"Okay Rose, you can stop. We don't need another 'What I hate about Scorpius Malfoy' rant." My ears turned red again, remembering the time when I went on this major rant about how much I hated Malfoy and one of his mates was standing right behind me.

"In my defence on that one, he had just blown up my cauldron so I got soaked in that hair grow potion. I was ALLOWED to be mad."

"What's your excuse this time?" Al said with a smirk. Man he was good at those, almost as good as Malfoy.

"I just told you!" I said irritably. "Someone can actually ask him out even though it is obvious that he is a jerk! Plus I am in shock that someone actually asked him out! Who'd of thought?"

"Most of the girls at Hogwarts." Al said bitterly. I wave of sympathy washed over my anger, Al's most recent girlfriend (Jennifer Boot from Ravenclaw) had dumped him saying 'You're really nice and everything but you are no Scorpius Malfoy.' It had really hurt Al. She was the first girl he had really liked. Although James and Fred had helped the matter by pulling a massive prank on her, all the pain didn't go away. That was the problem with dating a Weasley/Potter; you have to put up with a whole family of consequences if you break their heart.

"Don't worry about Jennifer, Al. As you can clearly see by that little display, Malfoy is taken. She'll come crawling back before you know it, so don't you worry." I comforted him.

"Thanks Rose." He said and we went back to work.

Even though I had to get used to it, I couldn't. Every time I saw the two of them together, my ears glowed red and I became very angry. I don't know why but I did. It was infuriating getting angry at something that you had no idea why.

Luckily for me, and my ears, Malfoy only went out with Nott for a month and then he dumped her. HA! I thought to myself, that's what you get for being a stereotypical blonde, clingy, girly girl!

Apart from that, we won the Quidditch cup! It was one of the most exciting games of my life. We won 350-10. The only reason I let one of the goals in was because there was a bludger coming at me. You understand I'm sure. The best bit for me though wasn't saving all those goals, it wasn't the crowd shouting the chant 'Weasley is our queen' (and old chant that started around dad, he was very proud of me), it wasn't beating Slytherin; it wasn't winning the Quidditch cup. No, the best bit for me was the look on Malfoy's face when Al caught the snitch. It was priceless.

Al thought I was mental for that being the best part of the game in my opinion. I secretly agreed. Why was I so happy at the look on Malfoy's face? It was probably because I loved seeing him lose. And if it wasn't, well then I don't want to know.

I don't want to be the one who screws up years of prejudice just because of one look being my favourite part of a Quidditch game. No sirey! That was not going to be me!

I was going to make sure that the fact: Weasleys and Malfoys just don't mix, stays true.

Author's note: So how was that for a chapter? I quite liked it. Not as much as 'Thou must slap a Malfoy in third year' but I did quite like it.

The jealousy is fun to write, sorry if I'm not that good at it though.

But I need YOUR opinions so please review and tell me what you think, what you liked and didn't liked and what you would like to see more of/less of.

Thanks a bunch to those who already have reviewed! You guys rock!
