Al's POV

Is it lame to say that I'm kinda sad the whole Scorp/Josie drama is over? It's not that I miss that. It's more the time I got to spend with Bex. It was really fun! But now that we don't need to join forces, I never get to see her anymore. Sigh.

I think even Scorp has noticed my change in mood since we stopped hanging out. Of course, Scorp never found out why we were hanging out, but nevertheless I didn't refrain from letting him know what I thought about her. Why did I have to be such a loser?

"Al, mate, you've been acting like a bit of a squiff lately. What's going on with you and that Bex girl?"

"Oh, er, which Bex girl?" My eyes never leave the colourless pages of my Ancient Runes text book. Scorpius slams my book shut and forces me to look him in the eyes.

"You know perfectly well which 'Bex girl' im talking about. There's only one Bex in the whole of Hogwarts!"

"Nope, technically there's a Bex Stone, a Bex Irvine, a Bex Smirdolf and a Bex Lionel."

Maaaaybe I shouldn't have named them all. Scorp looks seriously unimpressed.

"And which is the one that you dream about, the one that you never fail to bring up in any conversation. Even if it's about Flobberworms."

"Lionel."

I look down at my feet, embarrassed.

"Well, I must admit she's quite a catch."

"I haven't caught her yet, she's caught me," I mumble.

"Well, what are you going to do about it?"

I look away. How would I know how to get Bex? I've never had a girlfriend. I've never really had friends that are girls, except Rosie's friends. But they don't count. Not knowing what to say, I simply shrug.

Scorpius sighs pitifully. "I think I've got some work to do."

"Huh?" What is he going on about?

"Look, I'll teach you how to get her, if you help me get her Australian friend."

I stare at him with disbelief. "Mariah? You barely even know her!"

"Yes, but that will all change after supper tonight."

Shuddering, I nod. "Okay, I will. I'll have a chat with Rosie and see what she says." I notice that Scorpius winced when I said Rosie's name. LOL.

"Do you think I'd ever have a chance with her?" I say, a bit nervous as to what his answer will be.

"Al, you are the son of the famous Harry Potter and Gin Weasley. There's no way that she couldn't like you."

WHY DOES EVERYONE HAVE TO COMPARE ME TO MY DAD?

"Wrong answer, Malfoy," I say and storm out of the library.

I know, I know, it's a really short chapter. But I just felt that this was the perfect place to end it! Any ways, read and review and, who knows, maybs I'll update again soon ;)

I love all you readers!
