Scorpius Hyperion Malfoy knew girls were wondering why he hasn't dated anyone yet. Normally by the end of September he already had a girlfriend or had already snogged a couple of girls. Now it was November.

He told everyone who asked him about it that he was too busy with Head boy duties, Quidditch practices and studying for his N.E.W.T.s.

The real reason: over the summer he'd realized his feelings for his best friend Rose Weasley were more than friendship feelings.

He had been thinking about it since last year when Rose told him her boyfriend, Mark Davies, had broken up with her because he thought she was cheating on him with Scorpius because they spent a lot of time together. At the time he had laughed about it, later that night he started thinking about his real feelings for Rose.

On July he discovered he liked her, a lot. He maybe even loved her.

Problem was she probably didn't feel the same way about him. And she had sworn she'd never have a boyfriend again after Mark broke up with her. It was understandable, they'd dated for two years.

Another not-so-important-problem: she had ten cousins and one brother that will kill him if he hurt their precious little Rosie. And one of them was his other best friend.

And he was known for being a womanizer so she'd never believe him if he told her he loved her.

He had to prove Rose and her cousins that he really loved her.


Scorpius was sitting with Rose at the library doing his Charms essay when he decided it was time to ask her.

"Hey, Rose, do you want to go with me to Hogsmeade next week?"

"Yes… we already told with Albus we will go with him" said Rose, not looking up from her Herbology essay.

"No, I mean, as in a date, just you and me" clarified Scorpius.

With this, Rose's quill stopped moving and she looked up to meet his eyes.

"Oh, um, well, okay!" she mumbled.

Later at dinner, Albus didn't know what had both of his best friends smiling like idiots. But he guessed it had something to do with both of them saying they couldn't go to Hogsmeade with him.


Next week on Saturday, after the best first date both of them ever had, Scorpius was walking Rose back to her dorm. When they finally got to the Ravenclaw tower, he turned to face her.

"Well, I guess I'll see you tomor-" but she was interrupted by Scorpius taking her face in his hands and sweetly kissing her. Eagerly, she kissed him back.

"Rose, I love you" said Scorpius when they pulled apart.

"I love you too" was all Rose said before kissing him again.


Both of their parents never forgot their first and only detention. And Headmistress McGonagall never forgot the only time she caught the Heads snogging in an empty corridor hours after their curfew.


Author's Note: hey, guys! I'm back! I promise I'll try to update on Saturday but I don't know if I'll finish next chapter on time. Also, I still need ideas for Lily's and Dom's chapters. And you can start sending me requests! (as long as they aren't anti-ScoRose I'll write them).

Review, please! (or at least PM me)!
