Rose,

Midnight. Outside the library.

Destiny


Folding the letter up I put it in one of my drawers. I wasn't one for sneaking around the halls after midnight but if she wanted to apologize then I would give her the chance. Although, if I got caught or saw some explicit things while on the way, let's just say that I'd make a lion look like a kitten. I could be quite the vicious one.

"Rose, it's getting late. Turn that light out so we can all go to bed." I heard Stephanie murmur from her bed.

"Oh... Sorry."

Without even bothering to take my shoes off I fell into my bed after I turned off the light. The last time I was out after hours was when I was with Paul. And then for some reason thoughts of Paul turned into thoughts of Scorpius which turned into thoughts of me killing myself. Why the heck was I even wasting my time thinking of him in the first place? He was freaking ugly, better yet gorgeous and sexy. Not to mention his kisses which were- Shut up, Rose. Shut up! I mentally slapped myself for even going that far into thinking. It was times like this when I wished I had a boyfriend so I'd actually think about something else.

It wasn't long until I heard the snores of my roommates and I checked the time before slipping out of my bed. Thank Merlin that they usually went to sleep around 11:30 because otherwise I would still be stuck in bed with my thoughts. Opening the door as silently as I could I checked to see if anyone was still awake. Although one bed was vacant that wasn't mine I didn't bother. I knew it had to be Annabeth out at night making her 'daily rounds'. Or something like that.

As soon as I stepped into the halls I was half running, half speed walking to the library. The sooner I got there, the sooner she could apologize and I could be back in my bed with no worries about getting a detention. What happened to the daring Rose? Eh, I guess she went down the drain with my ex-boyfriend. I'd have to change that.

"Rose."

Turning around I was face to face with Destiny. She was pretty fast wasn't she? I mean I wasn't even in front of the library yet. Not to mention that I was early. Ha, I would never expect her to be early too. In fact I thought she might be a little late.

"Yeah?" I whispered.

"How are you?" So I don't know why she was making small talk because it would probably just be better for both of us if she just go to the point. But being the nice and polite person I sometimes am, I answered anyway.

"Fine."

"Oh... Well I suppose you want me to get to the point. So yeah... um. I'm sorry about what I did, it was wrong and I'm sorry. I shouldn't have seduced your boyfriend and cheated on Albus. It was the biggest mistake of my life and I regret it. I wish I could take it back. Then maybe we could have been friends and me and Albus' relationship wouldn't be on a thread right now. I'm sorry, Rose. I truly am." Rubbing the back of her neck I could see that she was blushing. This was probably the first time she had gotten the chance to apologize for something like this. Which would definitely explain why she said everything so fast.

"Apology accepted. Although I think you need to know that I'm not doing this to ease your guilty conscience. I'm doing this so Al can be happy. Not to mention the fact that he's thinking about breaking up with you. So you better fix it while you can."

"Alright. Well, thanks, Rose. I really do love him you know."

Shrugging I rolled my eyes. "Sure."

"And thanks for giving me the chance to apologize."

It seemed like she had other things to do because she was gone just like that. If only she could have done that all the time. I sure hoped that she wasn't going to screw things up with Al because then I would have to screw up her pretty little face. He'd saved her the first time but the second time to me was always the charm.

Breaking away from my thoughts I resisted the urge to go into the library. It's not like anyone would find me. I'm super quiet when I read unlike some people. Pulling my shirt down I began to make my way back to the Gryffindor tower. That was until I heard someone clapping. Why the hell do I always end up in some kind of trouble when I'm just trying to make things right?

"You put on quite the show, Weasley." I heard the voice first and then turned to see the grey eyes next. I told you he freaking follows me everywhere. I'm starting to think that I should get a restraining order or something on him.

"And exactly what kind of show are you talking about?" I asked before crossing my arms.

"Oh, you know what I'm talking about. Getting Greengrass to apologize. The thing is why did you have to do it in secret? Though I would have expected more tearing of the clothes, kissing and grabbing of the hair. You disappoint me."

"You bore me."

Exaggerating, because I was no where close to tired yet, I yawned and raised my hands above my head as if stretching. Closing my eyes I hoped that he would be gone by the time I opened them again but he was still there. Letting out a string of incoherent curses I started to think up a plan of how I would get away without talking to him for too long.

"Wow, Weasley. Who would have known that you used such dirty language?" He asked and he's so lucky that he's far away because I would have punched his face in.

"Wouldn't you like to know?"

"You know I'm surprised you don't play Quidditch. I heard you're quite exquisite at riding."

Closing the distance between us I grabbed the collar of his shirt and pulled so we were eye to eye. First of all, where the heck was he getting his information from? Every boy I've been with has vowed to keep quiet. And that was only two. Paul and Logan. Second, why the hell was he telling me the things he's heard about me in the first place? Why did he even care? He was asking for a slow and painful death.

"Listen to rumors much? If you keep assuming things they're going to earn you nothing but death. I don't appreciate hearing things like that."

"Are they rumors?"

"Do you really want to talk about rumors?" Before he could even answer I continued. "Well, allow me to go first. One, I heard that you and Zabini just love having a go at each other sometimes. Two, I heard that you and Albus are more than just friends and you're a little bi-curious. Three, I heard that you always top."

I could tell that he was at least a little phased by the things I heard but then he began listing the things he had heard with a smirk on his face. "One, I heard that you're quite the dominant one in bed. Two, I heard that you and Annabeth have slept together. Three, I heard that you sometimes join her on her little escapades. True?"

"Wouldn't you like to know?" I repeated but this time even slower.

"If you're offering." He whispered raising his eyebrows at me.

"I'm not." I said letting go of his collar before pushing him away. "Never will."

"Aw. I was sure we were getting somewhere."

Rolling my eyes, I started laughing. I have no idea where this is going but all thoughts of getting back to my bed are gone. I hate him and the way he makes me forget everything.

"I find it rude that you're laughing."

"Then shut up and I won't have anything to laugh at."

"Make me."

"How?"

"Kiss me."

"No."

"Scared, Weasley?"

Damn him for being so freaking persuasive by just saying a few words because otherwise I wouldn't have pulled his face to mine and kissed him. I was freaking desperate that's what I was. I think. There's something different about today I don't know what it is. But I do admit that I want him and I need to leave before things go crazy. I don't need another one night stand. Logan was enough. And when I felt his hands fall onto my waist I pulled away from him.

"You're too easy." I said removing his hands from my body. "I think Parkinson has some competition to her slutty ways. And are you going to shut up now?"

"Bite me."

"Well, if you insist." Annabeth is getting to me because her stories always go along the same lines as these. Dear Merlin, please tell my mother that I need to go home. Leaning in, I tilted his head to the side as I kissed his neck before I bit him. And by the way he hissed I could tell that it would leave a mark, which was just what I wanted. I am so desperate in everything I do. Next thing you know I'll be going out with the first boy who asks me.

"Ow, Weasley!" He exclaimed clasping his hand on his neck. "That hurt! You're abusive."

"I was merely doing what you told me to do."

"Oh, please. And if I told to shag me right now I suppose you would do that, too?"

Shrugging I shook my head. He was right. I have standards and they are above him actually. Except for the times when he makes me forget about them like now for example. That reminds me. I'm out after hours and I need to get back into my bed before anyone notices I was gone. Before I get caught in the hallway alone with my enemy. That would really set the rumors off then.

"You're right, I'm wrong. I need to sex." WHAT THE HELL? How the heck did I get the words 'sex' and 'go' mixed up? This only goes to show that I am really out of my mind tonight and I should probably run before something stupid happens.

"What?"

"Go! I need to go! Can't you hear?"

"Yes. You said something else though."

Seriously, if I talked to him any longer I would get no sleep. Or I would embarrass myself even more. Turning away from him without even bothering to say anything, I began walking back to where I belonged.

"Do I get a prize for being right?" He called after me and I couldn't help but laugh again.

After I was finally at the end of the hall my mind finally clicked back to Original Rose. What was he doing out at this time by the library anyway? And even though I knew he would already be gone I looked down the hall anyway before continuing to my destination. He would go onto my list of reasons why not to sneak out at night.

"Where were you, Rosie?"

Freezing at the bottom of the stairs I turned to see my caller. When I noticed the blonde hair I gave a sigh of relief. Thank Merlin that it wasn't anyone else. Especially Hugo. But that wasn't the point. The point was that I still got caught.

"I was just going for a nice walk."

Following me up the steps into our room she sat down at the end of my bed. "So who did you go see?"

"Destiny."

"Really? I didn't think you were up for stuff like that Rose. I honestly thought you were Miss Goody Two Shoes. That would be pretty hot though because it's your cousin's girlfriend. It's all secret and hiding and everything. Just imagine if he found you two one day and confessed his feelings for you. Then you would all have a nice three-" When she noticed the expression on my face she trailed off.

"Me and Al is something that will NEVER happen. For Merlin's sake, he's my bloody cousin!"

"Can I still spread a rumor about that though? I'm sure that would have the guys pouring in for you." Smiling innocently she gave me what she calls 'puppy dog eyes'. But for some reason I couldn't help but think that she probably uses those same 'puppy dog eyes' for something else so the effect wasn't exactly what she hoped.

"No. I let you spread that rumor about me and Paul getting married last year. Isn't that enough?"

"Can I make up a rumor about you and Scorpius then? I mean we couldn't get any veritaserum so we won't know about you and him but can I make something up? Like that you guys meet up in the Forbidden Forest every night to make passionate love to each other but once it's over you're enemies again?" Her mind is so totally fuzzed up right and I don't know if maybe she got something to drink or something but I was counting on it. Maybe she would even forget that we had had this talk in the first place by the time she wakes up.

"NO! Definitely not that either." Hoisting her off my bed I pushed her towards her own. "Now go to sleep, Annabeth. You're going to need it."


Author's Note: I honestly have no idea what happened here. And should this be rated M now? Trying to keep it rated T. xD Oh, and in my RosexScorpius relationship they take turns being the dominant one because I say so. Do you think that I should sometimes write in other people's point of view? I don't know. My story is just getting weirder and weirder. Awkward Rose and Scorpius next.
