I am so sorry for the late update…had a block…thank you for all the reviews..

Disclaimer- I do not own Harry Potter.

A loud crack woke Scorpius up.

Scorpius groaned as he sat up.

'Master Scorpius!' cried Diggly, the Malfoy's house-elf bowing down low.

Scorpius was home for Christmas.

'Yeah?' he muttered sleepily.

'Diggly has unpacked master's trunk.' Said the Elf, 'but Diggly wonders if this belongs to Master. Diggly has not read it. Oh no he has not.'

Scorpius yawned his eyes still closed. He had forgotten how talkative Diggly was. Scorpius held his hand out for whatever it was that "Diggly hadn't read".

Diggly handed Scorpius a small book.

Scorpius lazily glanced at it and his eyes grew wide.

'Oh you have got to be kidding me.' Muttered Scorpius looking at Rose's diary.

'Diggly hasn't opened it!' cried the house elf, 'Diggly swears on-'

'Diggly!' said Scorpius fighting to keep calm, 'go make me pancakes.'

Diggly bowed low.

'Diggly will make Master Scorpius the best-' said Diggly.

'Diggly please go!' said Scorpius annoyed.

The house elf disappeared with a loud crack.

'Why is it,' muttered Scorpius glaring at he diary, 'that this bloody thing always finds it's way back in to my hands?'

Making up his mind in a minute, he walked downstairs with the diary not opening it.

'This has to go.' Thought Scorpius as he entered the dining room where his parents were seated.

'Good morning.' Said Astoria with a warm smile at Scorpius.

'No it isn't.' muttered Scorpius looking around for his owl, Armani.

'Where is Armani?' asked Scorpius turning to his parents.

'Sent him on an errand.' Replied Draco, 'sit down will you?'

Scorpius sat down hiding the diary under the table.

'So what colour dress robes do you want?' asked Astoria.

'For what?' asked Scorpius confused.

'The New Years dance at Hogwarts, of course.' Replied Draco raising an eyebrow.

'Right.' Muttered Scorpius, 'forgot about that.'

'Don't worry.' Said Astoria, 'I have ordered a few dress robes. You can pick whichever you like.'

'Yeah I'll be going directly from here to the dance.' Said Scorpius distractedly.

'Who are you taking son?' asked Draco curiously.

This question caught Scorpius's attention.

'I don't know.' Replied Scorpius, 'I haven't thought about it.'

He wondered whom Rose was taking.

A white owl flew in dropping a letter on Draco' lap.

'Armani!' called Scorpius holding out his arm.

'He just got back!' said Astoria frowning, 'Let it rest.'

'No time.' Muttered Scorpius quickly walking away wit the owl.

'I don't reckon he's too bothered about the fact that he doesn't have a date.' Said Draco raising an eyebrow.

…..

'Lisa's written a two foot letter to me about her dress.' Muttered Albus rolling his eyes.

'Did you tell her that all of us will be going together?' asked Lily glancing at Rose who sat reading a book.

Albus glanced at Rose as well.

'Yeah I did.' Replied Albus nodding, 'should be fun.'

'So which dress did you finally decide on?' asked Lily turning to Rose.

Rose glanced up from the book she was reading.

'The cream coloured one with black lace.' Replied Rose.

'I'll wear a low cut red one.' Said Lily as Albus rolled his eyes.

'Who's your date?' asked Rose to Lily.

'Josh Carson.' Replied Lily fearlessly.

'What?' cried Rose and Albus in unison.

'Josh?' yelped Albus, 'when did that happen?'

Rose was too stunned to speak.

'We've been writing to each other for a while now.' Replied Lily.

'Josh?' mouthed Albus at Rose who shrugged.

'Yeah and he is joining our group too.' Said Lily satisfied, 'so are we going to Hogwarts the day before the dance or-'

'Oh definitely the day before.' Said Albus darkly, 'I'd like to have a word with Josh.'

'Anyways,' said Lily loudly ignoring Albus, 'Rose, we'd better go get those dresses.'

Rose stood up.

'I'll go home and change and I'll be back in an hour.' Said Rose as she dissapparated.

'Josh.' Whispered Albus frowning.

'Get used to it.' Muttered Lily, 'James was happier.'

'Wait a minute!' cried Albus, 'James knew?'

Lily smirked as she walked out.

….

Rose brushed her hair fully dressed. An owl hooted behind her. Rose glanced at the unfamiliar white owl perched on the window.

'Who are you?' murmured Rose stroking the owl.

She untied the small wrapped package and as soon as she did, the owl flew away.

The package had her name on it.

'What the-' murmured Rose as she unwrapped the package and saw her diary.

She checked the wrapping paper for anything she might have missed, but there was nothing else.

Rose sat down on the bed and flipped through the familiar entries.

But there was one entry that was unfamiliar. The last entry that Rose wrote before Scorpius and her switched back.

Slowly Rose began to read and as she did, she suddenly had an eerie feeling in her mind. And that's when it all started to come back. The switch. the horror at being Scorpius. Her break up. Her new friendship. Scorpius's sickness. It all rushed back in to her mind leaving her dazed. Slowly she closed the diary.

'I remember.' Rose whispered.

…

This was it for this chapter. Coming up next chapter is the New Years Dance where Rose faces Scorpius.
