"Romeo and Juliet" Hermione laughed. The reference was lost on the three purebloods. "Muggle thing" she muttered.
"It's so big" Rose stared in awe.
"Well, last time you saw my room you were about 3 feet shorter" Scorpius grinned as they sat on his bed.
"I know, but I just assumed that the room looked big because I was smaller, but it really is huge" she said.
"well, now that you know that my room is bigger than you thought, do you want me to find you some clothes?" he asked, standing up and walking towards his wardrobe. Rose was still in a hospital gown underneath his school cloak.
"That'd be great. What do you have in mind for me?"
"I was thinking sexy lingerie?" he smirked.
"Well, I'd be worried if you had some here, but maybe when we get back" she said. Scorpius whirled around to see her laid back on his bed, propped up on an elbow. She winked at him as she saw the shock in his face. "I said maybe. Do you have trackies and a shirt I could steal" she grinned.
"I'll hold you to that maybe" he said, retrieving a pair of trackies and an old t-shirt from a drawer. He walked over to her and jumped on the bed next to her, bouncing her in the air a little. She let out a little scream as she flew into the air before landing half on top of her boyfriend. "Well," Scorpius smirked, "we're in a bit of a position here, Miss Wealsey"
"Yes, we are indeed Mr Malfoy" she giggled. "I'm lying on top of you in a flimsy hospital gown on your very large bed."
"Hmm, you are. Well, we could change a few things about that statement" he flashed her a grin before flipping them over so they were lying side by side again. He pushed the bundle of clothes towards her. "As much as I'd love to do some dreadful things on this bed with you" he said softly, "your dad is in my house and I think it's in both of our best interests if my balls stay attached to my body" a smile crept onto his face.
"Yeah, you'll need them for that 'maybe' back at school" she grinned, grabbing the clothes and heading across the hallway to the bathroom. He watched her walk out, before going over to his wardrobe and picking out a pair of comfy jeans, shirt and hoody to change into. After being in his school uniform for two days (he'd stayed with Rose overnight in Mungo's) he needed a change of outfit too.
Once they were both changed, they headed back downstairs to say goodbye to their parents. As they approached, they heard the last glimmer of a conversation "…I've got an inside eye so we'll know when he's gonna do it" before it went quiet as they entered the kitchen. Both mums looked absolutely ecstatic for an unknown reason and the dads shared a knowing grin that both teens were instantly scared of.
"What's going on?" Rose asked.
"Nothing, dear, just discussing the summer" Hermione said, not giving them any hint of their previous conversation.
"We're gunna go, so we'll see you all in a few months I guess for our graduation" Scorpius said. After the hugs and mysterious grins, the couple walked to the living room and flooed into McGonagall's Office.
"Mr Malfoy, Miss Weasley" McGonagall smiled as they crashed into her office. They stood up before seeing that they were not alone in the office.
"We're sorry, Minister Shacklebolt" Rose stuttered. "We didn't know you were here. We'll leave right away" she said, dragging a slightly shocked Scorpius towards the door.
"No, Rose, could you both sit? You're actually what we're discussing" the minister for magic smiled, indicating that they take a seat. "We were just discussing the incident at St Mungo's earlier today."
"What do you mean?" Rose looked panicked.
"We think that it'd do you some good to continue with your studies instead of undergoing treatment" he smiled warmly. Rose visibly relaxed, letting out an audible sigh. "We believe that you and Scorpius here seem to have found, although slightly unconventional, a solution for now, so your school work shouldn't suffer. The ministry needs it's future trainee Transfiguration and Charms professors to get top results in their NEWTs"
It took a minute for it to register. "You're offering us jobs?!" Scorpius asked, amazed.
"If you'll take them" McGonagall beamed. "I need a trainee so that I may retire in a year's time and Professor Thomas has also requested a trainee."
"I'd, I mean, we'd love to accept them" Rose smiled, squeezing Scorpius' hand. "When would we start?"
"September, if you can"
"Thank you so much, Professor, Minister" Scorpius said. "Professor, sorry to be rude, but could we please be excused? I'm sure you have more things to discuss with the Minister and both me and Rose really need to go and prepare for the Weasley attack at dinner"
"Yes, of course, Scorpius. We shall see you both at dinner. We'll send the relevant details about your positions here next year with your NEWT results." McGonagall smiled before dismissing them.
"SCORP WE'VE GOT JOBS!" Rose screamed when they were out of the office, before jumping into his arms.
"I KNOW!" he screamed back jokingly, hugging her tight. "And we've got our dream positions too! I can't wait to tell Mum" he beamed.
"TO THE FLOO!" Rose laughed, pointing dramatically in the rough direction of their common room. Scorpius swivelled her round so he was giving her a piggyback and then walked towards their dormitory.
"Master Draco, yous have a floo from Master Scorpius" Dipsey said to the 4 adults in the kitchen. Draco, Astoria, Hermione and Ron all rose from their seats and walked into the living room, where Scorpius' head was floating in the fire.
"Oh, Mr and Mrs Weasley, you're still here" Scorpius grinned. "ROSE! YOUR PARENTS ARE HERE! COME TELL THEM WITH ME!" they heard him shout into the background. Moments later, Rose's face appeared next to his in the fire.
"We have some exciting news!" Rose grinned.
"What?" Ron and Draco both glowered slightly.
"Don't worry, I'm not pregnant" Rose laughed as both men relaxed (she noted that both of their mums seemed less excited), "WE'VEBEENOFFEREDJOBSATHOGWARTS!" she shrieked very loudly very quickly.
"We've been offered jobs at Hogwarts for next year" Scorpius translated with a grin.
"What?!" the four parents yelled.
"I've been offered Tranfiguration trainee and Rose has got Charms trainee!" Scorpius grinned.
"That's incredible! Well done you two! Hang on, you haven't even done your NEWTs yet?" Hermione asked.
"I know! Minister Shacklebolt just said that he wanted us both training next year! It's so exciting!" Rose squealed.
"The minister was there?!" Draco asked.
"Yeah. He was talking to McGonagall about the incident at Mungos and agrees that Rose shouldn't have treatment as he's rather us get our NEWTs so he can hire us!" Scorpius said. They heard a distant bell ringing.
"Dinner" Rose muttered. "We have to go, but we had to tell you!" she said.
"Thanks for telling us, love" Hermione smiled. "We'll see you at your graduation then, trainees" she grinned as the pair vanished into the fire. "OUR BABIES HAVE JOBS!" she screamed at Astoria.
"I KNOW!" Astoria screamed back. Both men watched in amazement as their wives continued their little happy dance into the kitchen, already plotting for their childrens' futures.
"It seems our wives have made friends" Draco said to Ron.
"Guess we'll be seeing each other more often then, Draco" Ron replied, before both men followed their wives into the kitchen for a celebratory champagne.
