-Standing Still-

Come Together

Scorpius caught up with Lily in the hall before lunch break. " s/4369155/27/Come-Together Lily," he said when he was walking side-by-side with her.

"Hey Score," She replied with a smile.

Scorpius rubbed the back of his neck and looked at the ground. He grabbed her arm and stopped her in the hall, moved them out of traffic, and rubbed his neck again.

"You know the next Hogsmeade weekend is next weekend?"

"Yeah..." She faded off in confusion.

"You... er... want to... Umm... go with me?" He was beet red.

"Er... Sure why not?" She said and skipped to the Great Wall.

Scorpius let out the breath he didn't know he was holding in. "I guess this is a step forward," he said to himself. "No more standing still."
