They all began drying each other off and rectifying the mess they'd made of the garden. Rose, Scorpius, Albus, Lily and Kevin all went to lend a hand in the kitchen while a few others set up the tables in the garden. Scorpius hopped up on the worktop as they finished up with their tasks, Lily and Albus looked at him as if he'd just signed his own death sentence.
"What are you doing?!" Lily hissed.
"Get down!" Albus cried. "Nanna will have a fucking fit if she sees you up there!"
"The only thing Nana's going to have a fit about is your language young man!" Molly bustled in followed by Ron and Harry who were looking at her with wide open mouths.
"How come he gets to sit on the counter?!" Ron huffed. "We never got to sit on the counter!"
"You never cleaned my house from top to bottom without being asked!" Molly rebutted.
"He what?!" Harry looked at Scorp with wide eyes.
"He cleaned my house so I could spend time with Arthur," Molly said.
"Suck up!" Ron smirked.
"I dare you to sit on the counter," Scorpius responded and Ron scowled at him. Rose sniggered at the playful air between her father and her boyfriend, something she never thought she'd have.
"He didn't do it to 'suck up' Ronald! He did it out of the kindness of his own heart!" Molly admonished her son.
"Whatever Mum," Ron sulked.
"Right, I think the foods all ready, you can all grab the serving dishes and start taking them to the table," Molly said, ignoring Ron.
They all grabbed food to carry and began making their way out the back towards the garden, setting it down in the middle of the table as they got there. The atmosphere had turned a little somber since it was the last day before those still at Hogwarts had to return to school. Hugo, Connie, Lily, Lucy and Louie were all heading back on the train the next day. It was a little easier on families since the war; McGonagall had become Headmistress and instated a rule whereby children could come home at weekends if they wished to visit their parents.
"You should come and visit one weekend with Connie and Amelia," Hermione told Hugo as they all began to dig in. "Now she's not a secret anymore, you don't have to pretend we smother you and refuse to come home."
"I wasn't pretending," Hugo grumbled.
"That would be lovely Mrs Weasley," Connie said. "Thank you."
"It would be lovely to have you, and call me Hermione," she smiled back.
"Mia would love it," Hugo said. "She gets fed up of being stuck in the castle."
"There's just nowhere else to take her where she won't be seen," Connie said quietly.
"Then I insist you come here," Hermione said warmly. "It would honestly make us so happy to see you all."
"Who-go..."Amelia looked up at the ginger boy beside her. "Help?"
"Sure thing Mia," Hugo said without pause and began cutting up the food on her plate. He missed the loving looks from his mother, sister and girlfriend, which was probably just as well considering he would have ruined the moment with embarrassed huffing.
"So, what time are we all leaving?" Rose asked the table in general, knowing they'd all be on the platform to say goodbye. The ministry had installed an apparition point on 9 & 3/4 and magically expanded it to nearly twice its original size because so many people wanted to be there to see their family off.
"Probably about eight," Ginny said. "We can go for breakfast then like we usually do."
"It's going to be so weird being there but not getting on the train," Al mused.
"It's going to be so weird being on the train when all of you aren't coming," Lily sighed.
"Yeah, but just think, one more year and you can cause some havoc with us at the Ministry," Rose said.
"I know," Lily said. "It's the only thing that's keeping me going!"
"She's coming to work with us?" Jackson frowned.
"Yeah, she's replacing Al," Rose said.
"Why? Where's Al going?" Louise asked, silently berating herself for being the first to question it and doing her best to ignore Ginny's smug expression from across the table. Al was practically glaring at her, no doubt for inadvertently lending more fuel to Ginny's fire.
"He doesn't really want to do it forever," Rose said with a shrug.
"I want to be a Healer, but I didn't want to go straight into studying again after finishing school. I wanted a bit of a break first." Al shrugged. "Rose offered me this for a year till Lily could take the position and it sounded like a laugh."
"You mean its going to be me, Polly, Flick and Lily?" Fred spoke up. "Seriously? You didn't think about how I'm going to be the only guy?"
"Well, I was sort of hoping you'd have made friends with some of the rest of the team by then." Rose gave him an unconvincingly apologetic grin. "Kevin, Tyler and Jackson are blokes, you'll be fine!"
"Yeah yeah," Fred sighed with a roll of his eyes.
"Don't worry Freddie, we'll protect you from the girls," Jackson sniggered.
"You know how Rose reacts when you call her Rosie?" Fred started out a little too calm.
"So, no Freddie then," Jackson sighed with a nod. "You lot have no sense of humour..." he grumbled.
"Did you literally just say that to this lot?" Kevin arched an eyebrow at him.
"Maybe..." Jackson mumbled, realising what an idiot he'd just made of himself.
"Besides, we wouldn't stand a chance against the girls if they decided to turn on us," Kevin said. "We'd be completely screwed. Solidarity in absolute compliance is the only thing you could offer him!"
"Well I'm glad to see one of you has a brain," Lily smirked.
"I grew up with a single mum and sisters," Kevin laughed. "They did not raise an idiot."
"How many sisters do you have?" Flick asked.
"Five, four older and one younger," Kevin said.
"What happened to your dad?" Jackson asked.
"Merlin, you need lessons in social interactions. Specifically what is appropriate to say, when it's appropriate to say and how to actually say it appropriately." Kevin shook his head, an affectionate but exasperated expression on his face as he looked at Jackson's sheepish grin. "My dad was a police officer, sort of like a muggle auror. He died on the job a few years after my baby sister was born."
"Sorry..." Jackson said.
"It's fine, it was a long time ago. I was about eight at the time." Kevin shrugged.
"So how old are you and your sisters?" Flick asked.
"Well, my oldest sister is Martha and she's forty in a few months, then Susie is thirty seven, Wilma is thirty three, Carol is thirty one, I'm twenty eight and Scarlett is twenty four," Kevin finished with a deep breath. "How about you lot? I know how all you Weasley-Potter-Grangers are related but what about the lot of you who married into this crazy family?"
"Well, I was an only child," Hermione started, being the first to technically marry into the crazy family. "And so was Harry, although he grew up with his cousin. We sort of saw each other as siblings after becoming best mates though."
"I have two younger brothers," Sarah said. "I'm twenty four, they're twins and both twenty at the end of this year."
"I'm an only child," Polly said.
"Me too," Mark, Molly II's husband mumbled.
"I have a two younger brothers too," Piper said. "But they aren't twins.
"I'm an only child," Jackson said.
"We can tell," Rose smirked.
"I have two older brothers," Tyler said.
"I have an older brother and a younger sister," Louise said. "Jake is twenty eight and Molly is sixteen."
"Is she at Hogwarts then?" Rose asked.
"No, I'm the only one of us who was a witch," Louise said. "My brother and sister are both muggles."
"Are you a muggleborn too?" Connie asked tentatively.
"Oh, no I'm a halfblood. My mother is a witch and my dad is a muggle," Louise said.
"I am though," Kevin said.
"How were your family when they found out?" Connie asked.
"Somewhat confused and very skeptical but they came around. After losing my dad I don't think they wanted to lose me over something so trivial," Kevin said. Connie nodded and pushed some food around her plate. "Sorry...I take it your family weren't the same..."
"No they weren't," Connie said, shaking her head. "They used Mia as an excuse to cut me out, I had an older sister and a younger brother. My little brother was pretty accepting of everything but, my sister and my parents just made life really hard. I miss them, but I'm happier without them making me miserable."
"Well, it looks like you found family again so..." Kevin gave a small shrug.
"She did," Hugo grinned and nudged her affectionately. "We can't replace the ones you lost, but we can promise you'll never lose us."
"I just want Mia to be surrounded by people who love her," Connie sighed. "And it's hard when people is just one person."
"Connie needs initiating, like, yesterday," Hermione said.
"Well, we still have Gabe and Flick to do, maybe we could do all three together?" Rose said. "She is of age..."
"What's initiating?" Connie asked.
"You only met her just over an hour ago!" Hugo said. "Do we really have to scare her away already...I was hoping she might stay with me a while longer..."
"How much longer?" Rose teased her brother.
"Just...shut up and eat your food. And leave my girlfriend alone," Hugo part smirked and part scowled at his older sister.
"Remember how I said if you get tired of my idiot brother we'd adopt you? Well, initiation is sort of...adopting people with the foresight of never letting them leave," Rose explained. "Scorp's been initiated, and Sarah and Polly...it means that should our relationships break down for whatever reason, they're still as much family as the rest of us."
"What do you have to do?" Connie asked.
"Bare your soul to them," Scorpius practically growled.
"We bare ours back too!" Lily cried.
"Help them on a large scale prank," Scorpius continued.
"That's just good fun and practice for working as a team," Al said.
"And finally, promising to always treat each other like the family that the-we are..." Scorpius rolled his eyes at the affectionate way half the girls were staring at him. "Sod off you lot!"
"And you've all done this? Those of you who are attached to a family member in some way?" Connie said.
"Except Mark," Rose said.
"Why haven't you done it?" Connie asked him.
"Because I just didn't want to," Mark shrugged. "I just...it wasn't for me..."
"You know you can change your mind at any time mate," Fred smirked.
"Molly doesn't really participate in any of our pranks or great works of mischievous endeavours," Victoire smiled at her younger cousin warmly. "It's part of what makes Molly her and we love her for it."
"We work well together because we're very similar," Mark said. "And it's not something I'm really that interested in. I know these guys still see me as family and I'm okay with the fact that we aren't as close as those of them that go through their weird little welcome..."
"It's not weird!" Rose and George protested at the same time.
"Yes, it is," Scorpius, Sarah, Polly, Gabe and Flick all said at once.
"But we wouldn't have it any other way," Polly said.
"I'll think about it," Connie said, flicking a nervous glance at Hugo and then a contemplative one at Mia. She really would have a real family if Connie went through this initiation thing, it was just factoring in how Hugo would feel and what the whole thing would really mean. She loved him but she hadn't told him that yet, she was too scared he might run away. And she didn't want to take away his chance to run if that's what he wanted at some point.
"Oh, those of you who're coming to the station tomorrow are coming back to work with me after," Rose said nonchalantly as Harry groaned.
"Rose?" Harry sighed. "What are you planning?"
"Nothing! I just need a little help with something!" She feigned innocence quite well.
"Are you going to get them involved in that training session we have in the morning?" He asked.
"Yes," Rose said.
"Fine," Harry said.
"It'll be fun Uncle Harry, we promise," Flick grinned at him.
"Why is she calling you Uncle Harry?" Gabe asked.
"Because she felt left out on her first day there," Al said.
"Well, can I call you Uncle Harry then?" Gabe asked with a pout.
"Whatever," Harry laughed as he shook his head.
"You really are all one big family aren't you?" Connie smiled.
"Yeah, for all our sins," Ginny grinned.
They spent the rest of the meal chatting and laughing, conversations floating between small groups and whole table discussions. The afternoon faded out into the night and everyone began slowly filtering out of the Burrow and back to their own homes with the promise of meeting for breakfast in the morning. Scorpius and Connie, along with Amelia of course, were invited to stay with Rose and Hugo at Hermione and Ron's house. Scorpius wanted to check Ron's temperature at that one but refrained when the man scowled at him for saying as much. Connie gratefully accepted the offer, feeling as though she was becoming just as attached to Hugo's family as she was to Hugo himself.
.
Rose snuggled down on the sofa with Scorpius beside her. Everyone else had gone to bed and for the purpose of maintaining at least some etiquette, Connie and Amelia were bunking with Rose, and Scorp was bunking with Hugo.
"This is my favourite place in all the world to be," Rose sighed as she hugged Scorp's arms around her a little bit tighter.
"Mine too," he said, kissing her head.
"You're gonna be there tomorrow, right?" Rose asked him.
"I'll be anywhere you ask me to be," Scorp mumbled sleepily.
"I love you Scorp," Rose grinned.
"I love you too Rosie," Scorp nuzzled her face until she turned her head. He leant down and pressed his lips to hers in a loving kiss. Rose twisted in his arms and instinctively pulled him closer, threading her fingers through the hair at the base of his neck and sweeping her tongue across his lips. Scorpius moaned softly and their mouths mashed together in the most wonderful way. Just kissing still made their hearts race and their blood pump, it filled them with something so beyond their control they couldn't describe it.
Rose nestled herself between Scorp's legs, laying atop him as he gripped her waist and occasionally smoothed his hands up and down her back, or across the base of her spine. He worked his fingers underneath her shirt and the skin on skin contact set Rose's soul alight. It was as if there was this incredibly strong pull to be much closer to him. She could feel his excitement, the confined hardness was unmistakable with her stomach resting against it.
"I'm sorry, sending you to sleep all riled up, again," Rose sighed as their kissing paused.
"Okay...that's it...hexing time..." Scorpius made to shift slightly and grab his wand. Rose giggled and grasped his wrist as he reached out with it.
"I'm serious Scorp," Rose chuckled, kissing him softly again.
"So am I," Scorp kissed her back, his tone firm. "You're getting your butt hexed."
"This isn't fair on you!" Rose huffed and pulled herself up off him. Scorpius caught her by the wrist this time and forced her to remain close to him instead of running away. He waited for her to look at him.
"Rosie, stop doing this to yourself," Scorp said slowly. "I don't understand what's going on?"
"I..."
"Explain it to me, please?"
"I'm not ready," Rose whispered.
"Rosie, I know you're not, I'd never-"
"I know! It's not you..." Rose said quickly. "It's me! My head isn't there yet but my body...Merlin! My body is screaming at me!"
"So basically, you're getting sexually frustrated and are using me as your scapegoat?" Scorpius smirked at her.
"No! Yes...maybe...I don't know!" Rose cried. "I just don't know anymore..."
"Why don't you?" Scorp frowned, there was something he wasn't getting.
"I...I feel like I might want to go further and then...then I'm scared," Rose said, looking sadly up at Scorpius. "Kissing you is one thing...everything else..."
"I get that," Scorp said, waiting for her to continue.
"It feels a little bit like it did when I was too scared to jump into a relationship with you. It's stopped being about me being ready in the sense that I'm broken or it's too soon, but it's different because...I just...the last time I was touched, the last time something happened..." Rose furiously wiped away her escaped tears as Scorpius rubbed her back and held her hand tightly. "I'm scared but I don't know how to stop being scared, and I know it's not something you'll ever push me into. Not like us, not like when you said you'd make me jump. This is different..." Rose sniffed.
"It is," Scorpius agreed. "And you're right, I'd never do that."
"What if I'm always scared though?" Rose looked up at him and it hurt him to see the terror and the pain behind her brilliant blue eyes.
"Hey..." he gently stroked her hair behind her ear and smiled at her. "We'll work it out, I promise. We'll find a way."
"I love you so much and all I want to do is be as close to you as I can get," Rose said. "I want to make love to you, it's like my soul is aching to be that connected to you. But my head just keeps throwing a fucking wobbly every time I start feeling it..."
"It's because you're out of control," Scorpius said softly.
"What?" Rose frowned.
"To give yourself over to the motions and sensations, to the way your body feels, it's losing a little bit of control. And to do it with someone, to give so much of yourself to another person...your head is struggling to separate the experience of being forced and thus being out of control, with the experience of sexual desire which also leaves you in an out-of-control sort of state." Scorpius looked intently at Rose before leaning in to kiss her softly. "I don't know how to help but I can promise you I'll always be here."
"Scorp, you can't promise that..." Rose whispered.
"Not this again Rose," Scorpius leant his forehead against her own. "I can cope with anything you throw at me until you start on down a road that makes me wonder if you'll break up with me because you feel guilty. I know what I signed up for: you. All of you, every part of you and who you are." He closed his eyes and sighed. "I don't know how to make you see I'm never going anywhere, sex or no sex."
"You'd live the rest of your life me not caring if we ever made it past where we are now?" Rose sniffed.
"You know I would," he said. "I can take care of myself if I'm honest, it's what I do most nights if I can't calm down. So long as you haven't got a problem with me thinking of you while doing it...?"
"No," Rose practically squeaked, turning bright red and feeling a burning heat begin to pool between her thighs. That turned her on.
"Rosie, I love you, nothing is ever going to change that," Scorpius sighed. He grabbed hold of her wrist again and pulled her over his lap so she was straddling him. Gently combing his fingers through the hair at the back of her neck he pulled her mouth down to his and kissed her again, this time with every ounce of feeling he had for her. Pulling back after a minute or two, he opened his eyes and let out a long, low breath.
"This is exactly where I want to be, always," he whispered. "You're my home..."
"You're mine too," Rose whispered back, her hands gripping his wrists as his hands still cupped her face, thumbs smoothing her jawline.
"Marry me?" Scorpius breathed.
.
"What?" Rose's eyes went wide, Scorpius' gaze flicked backwards and forwards between her deep blue irises, searching for some kind of reaction.
"I'm serious Rose," Scorpius said. "Will you marry me?"
"What about-"
"Forget the 'what abouts?' and forget all the outside factors and the rest of the world and the reality in which we live," Scorpius said. "Without you there is no me, marry me?"
Rose was having trouble trying to ignore the screaming voice inside her head telling her to just say yes. She was trying to listen to the rational one, the one that was in control and was telling her it was all too soon, and what about her dad? And what about her mum? And the press? And her job? And the rest of her family? And everything?!
Scorpius pulled her gently towards him again and locked his lips with hers, slipping his tongue into her mouth and eliciting a sigh from her he detached a hand from her head and snaked it around her waist, pulling her flush against him as best he could. The heat between her legs returned full force, spurred on by the stiff bulge in Scorpius' trousers now pressed against her own desire. Rose couldn't help herself, she wrapped her arms around Scorp's neck and pushed into him as far as she could go, desperately trying to mould them together. She could tell it had been a while since she'd felt any real pleasure, the smallest amount of friction against her core from his hardness as she brushed against him sent fireworks through her. She'd forgotten what it was like to feel those exhilarating sparks of pure physical ecstasy, caused by the slightest touch in just the right place. Scorp wound his other hand around her waist and up the back of her shirt, the warmth of her back against his hand making him sigh. Her lips were still attacking his, brutally nipping and sucking all along his mouth wherever she could attach them. The feel of his palm against her skin sent shivers down her spine and intensified the blazing need she had to find a release.
Scorpius slowed the kiss down to something far less primal, feeling the rise and fall of her chest against his own and her hurried breaths made him want to show her he loved her that much more. He broke away from her lips and trailed hot kisses down her neck, stopping to nip and suck at her pulse point in just the right way that she let out a small gasp. Scorpius let his hands wander slowly up Rose's back, deftly unhooking her bra with one hand and trailing the other around to skim a finger against the underside of a breast. He felt her breath hitch in her throat and stilled, finding her lips again and kissing her softly and sweetly until she was back to wriggling on his lap in frustration. Scorp continued on with his feather light touches once he was sure Rose was comfortable with his ministrations. He tentatively let his hand travel to cup her breast, giving it a soft squeeze and feeling himself tense and tighten at the moan she released into his ear. He rubbed his thumb over her nipple and smiled as she abruptly arched her back at the same time as letting out a low, guttural groan.
Rose found his lips again and threaded her fingers through his hair as her tongue danced softly with his. She tried to stop herself from grinding gently against him but the feel of him stiff and straining made her oddly confident and the deep, pleasurable little spasms that she hadn't enjoyed in a long time made it impossible to still her hips. She moaned again and gasped, her back arching as Scorp gently pinched her other nipple. The motion drove her hips into him at just the right angle, and she let lose a small whimper. She stilled again as her fear returned, trying to breath through it she shut her eyes and leant her forehead against Scorp's.
"Hey, I've got you," Scorp whispered, removing his hand from her top and wrapping it back around her waist. "Nothing is going to happen unless you want it to..." he rubbed soothing circles with his thumbs against the small of her back. It sent shivers down her spine and reignited the very intense physical reaction to him she'd been having. "We can cool it for now, just take everything one tiny step at a time..." he murmured to her. "I promise, I've got you, everything is going to be okay."
"I know..." Rose breathed. "I'm with you." She let out a shaky little laugh as her fears disappeared and her head started working with her heart. "You smell safe..." she whispered. She was safe, she knew she was, she always knew she was safe with him. It'd just taken a while for her head to catch up with her heart.
"Rosie..." Scorpius moved his hands from her waist to her face. His wide and stormy eyes settled on her trusting blue ones as they flew open at his touch. He felt such a protective and powerful affection surge though him, like he could move planets and stars just to keep her safe but he'd do absolutely anything she asked him to.
"I love you Scorp," Rose said, kissing him softly. "Were you being serious when-"
"I've never been more serious," Scorp cut her off. "I love you, and I can't explain how I know it's you, and it will only ever be you...but I do. Marry me?"
"Yes," Rose said, a tear running down her cheek. "Yes. Yes, I want to marry you..." she laughed softly at his wide and happy eyes, her heart swelling and her love for him uncontainable. She kissed him soundly, passionately, with everything she had and was not disappointed when Scorpius returned in kind.
She rose up, pushing her body against his and forcing his head to lift as she looked down at him, her lips never leaving his own. She raked her fingers through his hair and he moaned as she tugged lightly on it. He nipped and licked down her throat and all along her collarbone, the sensations zinging their way straight to her ever growing arousal. He was driving her insane. His hands were on her hips and then smoothing up and down her back, again making their way towards her breasts. As Scorpius brushed his thumb over one nipple and then the other, Rose's legs gave out and she came crashing back down on to his lap. Rose whimpered again at the abrupt contact, his want for her pressed firmly against her need for him.
"I want-" Rose breathed.
"No," Scorp cut her off gently. "We're not doing that here, not now..."
"But..." Rose wanted to cry with the frustration of her unreleased tension.
"I know," Scorp murmured, setting his lips back on hers. "But making love to you..." he carried on in between kisses. "That's something I fully intend..." kiss "...on taking my time doing." Kiss. "And it's something that's going to take a lot of time to build up to so you're happy and comfortable and actually enjoy it." He set soft grey eyes on her and pleaded with her to understand. "I won't be anything like him, and downstairs on your parents' sofa can't be anything but rushed and quick."
"I know," Rose sighed, nodding gently. "I just...I haven't felt anything close to this in a while. Already it's like there's a tight coil in my tummy that just wants to spring apart."
Scorpius grinned at her wickedly before sealing his lips back on hers. He grabbed her face with his hands and waited for her to lose herself in the passionate kiss he'd instigated. The groan that escaped her lips came not ten seconds later and he immediately moved his hands down to her hips. He slouched down on the sofa slightly, so his still confined stiffness was in a much better position for her, something he was assured of as a low moan escaped her lips. He grinned as she instinctively ground into him, taking a firm hold of her hips and turning her gentle, tentative movements into something a little more satisfying on both their parts.
Rose couldn't help the way her hips pushed into his, and once he'd helped her apply some force there was little Rose could do to stop herself. Still fully clothed, she was amazed at the sensations rippling through her body with their impassioned movements. This was exactly what Rose needed right now, something to release the tension but not so far as to make her vulnerable. Scorp was right, they would need a lot of time for that, it would be a 'go slow' sort of thing. Her tongue and teeth matched the rhythm of her grinding pelvis, moaning at the sweet sensation, the friction between him and her and the building heat so desperate for release. Rose whined, she was almost there, something she couldn't ever remember being without at least some part of her being naked. But she needed more, she needed something to push her over the edge. Something Scorpius obviously sensed because not a second later he was gently sucking her nipple through the fabric of her top. Rose bucked and let out a loud moan, the feel of his mouth on her taking her by surprise in the best way.
Scorpius tightened his hold on her body and ground his hips up into hers, her breathing coming thick and fast now. Her hands were on his shoulders as she lost herself to the feel of his caress and ever tightening knot of desire inside of her. Scorp moved to smooth a hand down her thigh and up towards her building heat. As he let go of her breast and blew gently on the now damp fabric, he snaked his hand in between their grating bodies and pressed hard on her jeans in the exact place her clitoris was hiding. Rose called out, her head thrown back and her body arching into him. She continued to practically ride him as her orgasm rocked through her, his thumb rubbing small circles in just the right place. As Rose came down from her high Scorpius wrapped his arm around her and pulled her tight, nuzzling his nose into the juncture between her neck and her shoulder. She felt him jerk a little and shudder, and ran her fingers through his hair until their breathing returned to normal and their pulse rate had calmed down.
"Merlin, that was a little embarrassing..." Scorp mumbled as he raised his head.
"Why is that embarrassing for you? Should I be embarrassed?" Rose asked.
"No! Of course not...I'm just not used to a woman having such a massive effect on me," he said. "I just came in my pants, I've never done that before. Not while conscious at any rate..."
"And you think I have?" Rose smirked. "It was new for me too..." she said softly.
"Merlin Rosie..." he sighed, closing his eyes and resting his head against the back of the sofa. He grinned sleepily. "Something tells me we'll never get bored..."
"You think?" Rose smiled, sitting back on her haunches and looking at a sated Scorpius.
"Oh I know," he laughed. "If you can do it for me without taking any of your clothes off, I'm screwed."
Rose giggled and blushed and pushed his chest playfully. Scorp grabbed a hold of her wrist and pulled her forwards, meeting her in the middle with a kiss.
"Oh my god! My parents!" Rose suddenly pulled back and stared at him mortified. "I know I wasn't quiet...they're going to kill me, and then you..."
"Don't panic, I silenced the room the minute you let out the first sigh." He grinned at her. "You aren't exactly quite at mine either, and we've never gone further than kissing before. I wasn't expecting anything to happen but I silenced the room in case your parents heard you enjoying our snogging session too much and thought we were up to something."
"But how, I didn't even see you with your wand?" Rose frowned.
"I don't need a wand for that, I've been able to do it wandlessly for years," he said.
"I forgot I was talking to Slytherin's former Sex God," Rose smirked.
"What do you mean former?" Scorpius said. "I still am Slytherin's Sex God, my services are just no longer available to the masses."
"You're incorrigible," Rose chuckled.
"I love you Rose Weasley," Scorp smiled.
"I love you too Scorpius Malfoy," Rose said, kissing him sweetly. "Come on, we have a long day tomorrow, lets go to bed..."
"I'm going to head back to the Manor quickly first, clean up a bit and stuff. I'll come back here afterwards so don't worry, I'll be spooning Hugo when you wake up." He winked cheekily at her and she rolled her eyes.
"Night Scorp," she said, stealing one more kiss.
"Night Rosie," he said, smiling as she climbed off his lap and headed up the stairs.
A/N - so, I hope that wasn't too full on or weird for anyone. Proper, full on smut, just doesn't seem to sit right in this story for me. So while the scenes might be descriptive at times, they aren't likely to get too hot and heavy in the 'fucking like rabbits' sort of sense.
Thanks for all the reviews, follows and favourites, they do mean the world to me. I am a little sorry though because I have my sons birthday and party this weekend and beginning of next week so my next update may be late again :(
Small warning, Simon will be back in the next chapter (or two depending on how much I write but it will only be one appearance) and his whole story arc will come to an end with him getting his comeuppance.
