I don't own Harry Potter
Sunday morning dawned and the boys found themselves back down in the great hall for breakfast. Only that time they'd found it without James help.
"Yesterday I saw your cousin come back from the library with five books and they were not small books either."
"Oh you must mean Rose yeah she get that from her mother. "
"So that's normal for her." He looked down the table at the bushy haired red head.
"Oh yeah, when it comes time for exams we should stay away from her unless we want to get roped into studying forever." Just then the mail came and chatter raced around the great hall as students read the front cover of the Daily Prophet.
Malfoy heir in Gryffindor, friends with a Potter.
Underneath of the headline was a picture of Albus and Scorpius walking through the halls of Hogwarts with Rose the day before.
"How in the world did she get this picture?" Albus scowled. And by she, he meant Savvy Skeeter they daughter of the notorious Rita. His parents had always told him to stay away from the Skeeter women but it seems even that wouldn't save him.
"Who knows." Scorpius pulled a copy of the paper towards him and read the article.
Scorpius Malfoy only child of Astoria Malfoy nee Greengrass and Draco Malfoy has been sorted into Gryffindor. This is unprecedented there has never been a Malfoy in any house beside Slytherin and the same goes for Greengrass. The only thing that has ever came close to this happened over forty years ago when Sirius Black himself from a long line of Slytherin's was sorted into Gryffindor. That isn't the only twist to this juicy story. No you see the thing is the Malfoy heir has been seen converting with the younger Potter son. We believe his name is Albus. Along with the daughter of Hermione and Ron Weasley young Rory. What could be their game plan? How did a Malfoy even end up in Gryffindor and will a resorted be forced by the elder Malfoys?
"She thinks my name is Albus really it's not hard to remember."
"Hey at least she actually got your name right." Rose scowled. "Rory I mean really."
"At least it started with an R." Scorpius smirked. Causing Rose to throw a roll at his head.
"Have they ever even done a resort?" Albus looked back down at the paper."
"No." Rose said
"Even my parents aren't crazy enough to try that. My grandparents on the other hand I make no promises about them."
As the students glanced back over the erroneous paper things at Malfoy manor had exploded. Oh not literally but figuratively yeah things had exploded.
"Isn't her name Rose?" Draco asked looking up at his wife as he finished reading the article splashed across the front page of the paper.
"Yes I believe so." Astoria sipped her tea. Just then the fire flared green and an angry Lucius Malfoy stalked out. Narcissa trailed behind him trying desperately to stop him. She should have known after all the years of marriage that nothing could stop Lucius Malfoy.
"What is the meaning of this?" Lucius spat pointing at the paper on the table as daggers seemed to spear from his eyes. Draco was almost wondering if it was possible to just set paper alight with just your eyes.
"Well father that's the Daily Prophet, as it's name says it comes out Daily. You should know that you got it throughout my whole childhood.
"Do not try and act stupid Draco Lucius Malfoy." Lucius sneered down at his son. "You know what I meant. What is this atrocity about my only grandson. The heir and future to the Malfoy family being in Gryffindor and a friend with a Potter and worst of all a Weasley."
"Actually wouldn't that be two Weasley's? As the Potter in question is half Weasley.
"Draco." Lucius growled. Well Narcissa stood back and wrung her hands.
"Fine," Draco stood up, yes he's in Gryffindor, and yes I wish it was different but it's not and there is nothing we can do about it."
"Not that we'd want to." Astoria glared at her husband. "It's obvious Scorpius was meant to be in Gryffindor and we wouldn't want to force him to do or be something he didn't want." she glared over at Lucius thinking of how he forced his only son into the rank of death eater at only sixteen.
"Are you going to let her talk to me like that?" Lucius demanded.
"Well she's not wrong." Draco looked at his father. The past flashing through his own mind.
"No family of mine is going to be a bloody Gryffindor."
"What are you going to do about it, disinherit me, disinherit Scorpius? You can't do that we're the last of the line." Draco smirked smugly.
"I wouldn't be so smug if I was you. I can't disinherit you sadly but I can cut off the money for the time being." Draco tried hard not to roll his eyes at that. His father seemed to forget that he had his own savings and money.
"You do that father." He challenged standing toe to toe with the man he'd admired and detested in equal measure his whole life.
Lucius reached out to strike Draco but Narcissa lunged forward. "NO." she pulled his arm back. "Lets just go home. She pulled her fuming husband towards the floo and sent him back to the house they'd lived in since after the war choosing to leave the manor to Draco hoping to start better memories in a new home. "I'll try and get him to calm down." Cissy promised kissing Draco on the cheek before following her husband through the floo.
"I'm proud of you." Astoria walked up to Draco wrapping her arms around him and kissing his cheek. I know it's not what you want but you still stood up for our son. "Thank you." She tilted her head up and he kissed her lips gently.
"I won't be like my father, yes I'm displeased but he's still my son I still love him." He wrapped his arms tightly around his wife. He hoped he could take away some of the taint from the Malfoy name.
As things simmered into calm at the Malfoy household, things at Potter manor were in an uproar.
"My daughter friends with a Malfoy." Ron stormed through the floo and tossed the paper on the couch beside Sirius who himself was beaming because he'd been mentioned as somewhat of a rebel.
"I'm more offended that they didn't even get her name right." Hermione huffed. Sitting down next to Sirius. "Why are you grinning like that?" she asked looking over at the older man.
"I was mentioned. I love it when the papers mention me."
"He really does." Harry sighed coming into the room, he cuts them out and keeps them and everything." Hermione just rolled her eyes.
"Will you please calm down your friend, he's been ranting all day."
"Oh so now he's my friend huh." Harry raised his eyebrow and looked at Hermione. "Sorry to bust it to you but he became your problem the minute you said I do."
"I was afraid you were going to say that." Hermione sighed.
Harry chuckled but turned to Ron. "Ron calm down it's not that bad."
"Not that bad my baby girl is going around Hogwarts with the mini ferret."
"Very true but Albus is also there."
"Bit comfort." Ron huffed.
"Oh Ronald." Ginny came in hitting him upside the head. "Calm down drink some tea and think of what you're saying. Yes Rose is hanging out with Malfoy, but guess what he's a Gryffindor and even if he wasn't and was a Slytherin not all Slytherin's are bad Astoria is very nice she didn't fight in the battle but during the year she was a big help to the DA. You probably shouldn't tell Draco that though."
"So the precious pure blooded Mrs. Malfoy helped during the war. Interesting." Ron smirked.
"Ronald honestly once again not all Slytherins are bad get it through your head or I'll sick Andromeda and Minerva on you." She smirked when she saw the look of horror on his face.
"Fine I'll behave for now but if he so much as puts a toe out of line I'm getting him." He sulked.
"Sure you are dear, sure you are.' Hermione soothed trying not to burst into laughter.
No one noticed Lily leaning against the wall listening to the whole conversation.
