In the previous chapter….
"How much do I owe you, Fleur?" Rose said, grabbing her purse out of her bag.
"Nothing, Gab said to give it to you free of charge, providing you get a picture of Scorpius' face when he sees you in it" Fleur smiled. Rose none the less put 7 galleons on the desk and then walked out with Lily, who had decided on a dress, purchased it and had it tucked away in a bag.
The girl's walked back laughing, and laughed even more as they walked through the entrance hall. They had timed their arrival perfectly, for they just arrived as Scorpius, Leo, Lorcan and Lysander left the dungeons sprinting as though their lives depended on it. They were all soaking wet, and had bubbled up their arms and faces.
The girls laughed even more as they watched Professor Parkinson run after them yelling, casting the odd spell at them as she chased them. She stopped in front of the girls, scowled and muttered cursed under her breath as she watched the four boy's disappear round a corner at the end of the corridor.
"What did the idiots do now?" Rose giggled.
"Water fight during their detention. Found them hurling bubbles at each other. Of course, they looked at each other and sprinted out of the door" Parkinson huffed.
"Don't worry, Professor, they'll be wishing they'd stayed for your lecture after Rose has dealt with them" Lily laughed.
"Got Mr Malfoy's posse wrapped around your little finger, have you Miss Weasley?" Parkinson grinned.
"I'll deal with them, Professor. They'll regret the day they ever started hurling bubbles" Rose said, trirling her wand in her fingers.
"Is this your idea of punishment?" Scorpius asked between gritted teeth from his seat next to his grinning girlfriend. Leo, Lorcan and Lysander joined Scorpius in glaring at the very smug girl.
"Yes. I think you'll learn from it" she smirked.
"Why red?" Scorpius sighed.
"Blue?" Leo rolled his eyes.
"Pink" Lorcan groaned.
"At least I got Slytherin green" Lysander beamed.
"Shut up" the other three boys growled, but their growl turned into laughter as Lysander's green hair turned into a Christmas tree.
"Ok, I prefer green" he muttered.
"Nah, the Christmas tree looks stunning" Scorpius laughed. "But why bewitch our hair different colours?" he asked Rose.
"You have 2 weeks to prove to me that you've learnt from starting a water fight in detention or I keep it permanent" she smiled. She neglected to tell them that the spell wore out after a month even if you didn't reverse it.
"Fine" the boys grumbled. They were the centre of attention that night when Rose dragged them in with their multi-coloured hair and plonked them down in the middle of the Slytherin table.
"You should've been in Slytherin" Leo muttered under his breath. He cried out as suddenly his hair started glowing neon. Rose smirked.
"Behave, Nott" she waved her wand in his face.
"Sneaky bitch" he muttered quieter this time, so that she didn't hear him.
"Nice punishment, Miss Weasley" Parkinson smiled as she walked past. The boys withered under her glare.
After dinner, Rose and Scorpius headed back to their common room.
"So tonight, we do the rest of that Charms homework then focus on catching up in Transfiguration?" Rose asked as they walked hand in hand.
"Yeah. Then I thought we could just chill and play chess or something" Scorpius said, running his hand through his Weasley red hair. "Rose, how do I prove to you that I've learnt my lesson?"
"You're the smartest person in our year besides me, you should be able to figure something out" she grinned.
"Okay, that was in no way helpful" Scorpius said, rolling his eyes as he saw Rose smirk, "But I have another question for you as well"
"Oh really?"
"I know that we have to go to the Valentine's Ball as head boy and girl, but would you come with me as my date instead?" he grinned.
His grin turned into a frown as Rose stopped walking, staring at him with an open mouth and wide eyes. The look of pure shock slowly turned into a small smile as she walked to catch up with him. She took his hand back in her own and smirked as she said "How bloody long do you take?"
"So I take that as a yes?" he grinned again.
"Yeah, stupid" she laughed before leaning up to kiss him.
