CHAPTER 2
A.N. Thank you so much to Cassia4u, Gome949, and cacata for reviewing my first chapter. This has been my first fanfic in a couple of years, so I am a bit rough on the edges. I'm working on that.
*Side note: Earlier, Rose asked Score if it was time for dinner. I meant lunchtime, cuz the story has a purpose for dinner time. So it is now lunch time.
I would edit that first chapter, I just need to figure out how to first. And I have no Beta, so yesh! These are all unedited. I did catch a few grammatical errors. Please forgive me! I'm personally harsh on that, but I hope I will be able to pull off this Chap without too many mistakes.
So after my ramblings, here is Chap. 2
I wish I own the Harry Potter Universe, then I would be rich like J.K. Rowling. *
"So Rosie," Scorpius started so innocently in the middle of the table during lunch, "is there something you would like to share to the class?"
Rose froze and shot him the best death glare she could muster, in which he merely smirked, while passing the mash potatoes to Louis, who was in England visiting for the World Cup.
"Oh Merlin, Scorpius!" Fred hollered from his end of the table, "Don't get her started now! We'll miss the finales once she gets started on the importance of the Rosmerta Stone to the modern study of Ancient Runes!"
"First off, Fred Weasley," Rose snapped, "It's the Rosetta Stone and it is of great importance to the every day study of Ancient Runes." She glared back at Scorpius. "But as Fred said, Malfoy, no one's interested."
"Malfoy?" Teddy piqued up, "It must be something interesting since you haven't called Scorpius that since he beat you in D.A.D.A Owls."
"Teddy…" Rose seethed. She usually like Teddy. Heck! He was her first love (not that he or anyone knows. That would just be downright mortifying if the Triad would know!) However, right now, she would love nothing more than to set his currently red hair on fire.
"You might not find him interesting, Rosie, but I'm sure the rest of them do." Scorpius stated simply.
"Him?" Dominique squealed. "Oh yes! We do! We find 'him' very interesting!"
"Hey!" Rueben Hagrid, Dom's boyfriend protested.
"Oh, don't be jealous, dear." Dominique shushed him. "It's not everyday that a boy pulls her attention away from those rusty books of hers."
"Andrei's not a boy!" Rose cried indignantly.
"Oh hoh!" Roxanne clapped her hands, "He's got a name!"
Rose cursed herself. Thank goodness the parents are out. They would never live it down. Not that her cousins wouldn't do any better.
"Do you suppose he's a Bulgarian supporter, Rosie?" Lucy asked. "His name doesn't sound very English to me."
Scorpius was already muffling his laughter until he started choking. Lily had to start slapping his back.
"You better make sure James doesn't find out you've been kissing the enemy, Rosie." Her brother, Hugo stated as a matter-of-factly. "He'd disown you."
"He kissed me!" Rose yelled. Silence permeated the room, except for the collective gasps of her female cousins. 'Crap!' She covered her mouth instinctively, even though knowing that it's too late. She stared wide-eyed at her cousins who were looking at her like she just sprouted another head. (Of course with the exception of a certain Malfoy who already fell off his chair laughing his head off).
"Oh goody!" Molly seemed to be the first one to recover. "Do tell!" She jumped off her seat and squeezed herself between Rose and Albus.
"I will not!" Rose snapped at her grinning cousins. She took a big bit from her barbequed ribs just to hold off talking.
"Might as well tell her, Rosie," Albus sighed. "We all know that she's never going to let it go." Everyone knows that Molly is could out-interrogate her namesake any day.
"Oh, do tell, Rose!" Lily pleaded from Scorpius' side. "I tell you all my kisses!" Albus covered his ears, muttering, 'I didn't hear that!' while Scorpius choked again.
"Have you been snogging my sister again, Malfoy?" A new voice came in the room.
"James!" Lily jumped up and gave her oldest brother a hug. "I thought we wouldn't see you until after the match!"
"Well, thanks to the Veela here, she managed to charm our manager to let us visit our families for a minute." James said, pointing at his partner, England's scariest beater.
"I did not go Veela on him, James Potter and you know it!" Victoire Weasley growled at her cousin and team mate. "On the contrary, Teddy," She said, strolling towards her fiancé, "I threatened to disembowel him if he wouldn't let us a get a kiss from our lucky charms for good luck." At that, she kissed him head on in front of her siblings and cousins.
"My eyes!" Cried Louis, covering them.
"Get a room!" Dominique hissed, while burying her face on her boyfriend's shoulder.
Victoire laughed and sat beside Teddy. Really, it wasn't that hard to agitate the little ones. "So what's this about my cousin kissing yours, Teddy? You know how I hate being left out of conversations, especially kissing ones." She smiled, taking a sip from his Butterbeer.
"Actually, we were talking about Rose's kissing escapades, Vic." Scorpius corrected her instantly, inching closer to his girlfriend at the sight of James' murderous look.
"Scorpius Hyperion Malfoy!"
"With the enemy!"
"Lily Luna Potter!"
"Whose name is Andrei…"
"Hugo Arthur Weasley!"
"Yes, dear sister?" came the cheeky reply.
"Woah! Woah! Hold up!" James pushed Albus aside and sat down between him and Fred. "Who've you been kissing, Rosie? I swear, I thought Creevey traumatized you for life!"
Rose remained silent.
"Andrei, huh?" James raised an eyebrow. "You haven't been snogging Andrei Krum instead of supporting your cousins and country, have you?"
"What does my kissing have to do with national pride?" Rose cried. "And who the heck is Andrei Krum anyway?"
A collective gasp permeated the room.
"He's only like the best seeker of our generation" Albus spluttered.
"He may not be the youngest seeker to take part of the Cup, like his uncle, but they say he's even better than Viktor Krum!" Fred exclaimed.
"He's extremely bright too!" Lily added. "He was invited to study at the Salem Magical Institute in Massachusetts on full scholarship, even though he was supposed to study in Durmstrang." All other academic-minded cousins nodded in approval. Asides from Hogwarts, Salem is noted to be one of the best magical school in the world.
"Not to mention, he's a nice meat of man!"
"Lucy!"
"What! Like you're not thinking it, Dom!"
"But you said it!"
"Hey!"
"Alright children, settle down!" Teddy reprimanded. "Why don't we just let this go? Lily, where did Scorpius go?"
He was turning rolling on the floor, while turning red.
"Malfoy, are you alright?"
"He's fine!" Rose snapped. "Besides, I doubt he's this Krum person, anyway. He couldn't even pull that Wonky Feint thing Lily always does."
"Aw, why thank you, Rosie!"
James remained suspicious of his cousin as he watched his sister's hysterical boyfriend. 'Beep! Beep! Beep!' sounded from the Beaters' uniforms.
"Alright, time to go!" Britain's Blonde Bludger stated. She stood up and gave her fiancé a peck on the cheek.
"Well either way, Rosie, I hope that this secret affair of yours wouldn't get in the way of supporting your family in the most important match of the decade." James said seriously while everyone else snickered. Rose rolled her eyes. James is so overdramatic at times.
"Jamie, leave her alone. We're late!" Vic said, grabbing his robes. "Wish us luck!" She and James disapparated away.
Rose harrumphed at her grinning family, "Well, if you'd excuse me, I've got an affair to carry on with Polyrachma's Puzzle." She said, charming her plate and utensils washed and clean. "Just call me when you're ready to leave." She stomped off.
"Potters! Weasleys! Guess what!" the Scamander twins burst in their tent. "Did you guys hear? Sean McLaggen just got hit by a WWW Rainbow Hair Bomb!"
"Oh, James…" Everyone sighed. It's been no secret that the oldest Potter despises England's seeker with strong passion. They must agree though. McLaggen was an arrogant git, who has hit on every Potter-Weasley girl that has gone to Hogwarts the same time he did.
"You should have seen it!" Lorcan started.
"It was hilarious!" Lysander laughed.
The rest of dinner was spent gossiping about the unfortunate seeker's new hairdo, while Rose and her secret lover remained temporarily forgotten.
But not for long.
