Scorpius Malfoy and Rose Weasley are in their fifth year at Hogwarts.

"You are a Prefect? Really?"
Scorpius Malfoy rolled his eyes, scratching the back of his neck and smiling slightly "That unbelievable, eh?"
"Well, it's just that you're not exactly the type...are you?"
"Do expand on that, Albus."
The raven haired boy chuckled "Well, you've never set much store by the rules...have you?"
Scorpius shrugged "Fair play."
The compartment door opened and a fifteen year old girl entered the carriage. Her auburn hair was curly - a mixture of her Father's red and her Mother's brown. She was wearing a short black skirt over a long pair of tanned, elegant legs clad in knee high socks. Her shirt was tight, the top few buttons undone revealing a dipping expanse of flesh above the V of her jumper. A scarlet and gold tie hung loosely in her hand and the other set of deep red nails rested on the door frame.
"Albus, have you seen - oh." Her eyes scanned over the tall boy beside her cousin, resting momentarily on the emerald badge glinting on the left hand side of his jumper "Congratulations." The word was drawn out and she licked her bottom lip, smiling to herself "Not exactly expected, but whatever-"
"This idea must run in the family." Scorpius interrupted her, raising an eyebrow "What exactly is it that makes my level of authority so unbelievable?"
"Oh, I don't know." She shrugged, draping the tie around her neck and smirking "After all...there are worse people to be reprimanded by."
"In that case - fasten your tie."
"Ah, but Scorpius," She smiled, pulling a scarlet badge out of her shirt pocket and holding it out in the palm of her hand "I could just as easily tell you to tuck in your shirt."
His grey eyes widened momentarily, staring from Albus to the girl in front of him "You are joking, right?"
"Unfortunately not." Her own eyes glinted playfully.
"You are the female Prefect for Gryffindor?"
"Correct."
"And I'm a shock?" He shook his head, smirking "Honestly, if there's one person who doesn't follow the rules then it's little Miss Weasley over here who considers it amusing to wink at first years and cause them to walk into walls."
Rose chuckled, running a hand through her long hair "Looking forward to working with me, Malfoy?"
"Can't wait." He drawled, winking ever so slightly, ensuring that Albus missed it completely.
"See you around then." She grinned, before turning around and leaving the compartment.
Scorpius watched her leave, realising suddenly that Rose Weasley was someone with who he really shouldn't mess, but very much wanting to despite of all the trouble it would surely involve.
