Threats and Trickery


"Daddy?" Lily breathed in panic, falling out of Scorpius' lap.

"Mr. Potter!" Headmistress McGonagall cheered rushing down the aisle of the hall towards Ronald Weasley and Harry Potter. Lily's uncle and father shared the faces of shock shown by a drowned cat.

"Oooooh!" Albus and Rose called from the Gryffindor table.

"Oh no" Lily trembled while the entire hall was distracted by her famous family she swiftly to the entry hall to be alone and catch her breath. She snapped her head up listening as determined steps fell upon the stone floor coming closer. Slowly inhaling through her nose she expecting to see her furious father as she turned she saw none other than Scorpius Malfoy. "Scor you need to go before my father comes"

"Why?" he asked looking sincerely concerned and catching Lily off guard, Scorpius had issues being sincere.

"Because I've just made a fool of myself in front of my father!" she cried, "Why must I always be so reckless?"

"It's who you are Lily" Scorpius' attempts at comfort weren't helping.

"God I'm a slut"

"Don't talk that way"

"It's true!" her tears were falling, Scorpius pulled her into his chest running his fingers through her red hair. He had always wanted to do this, be a source of comfort and protection, too bad it was because she was embarrassed about one of the most fulfilling moments in his life.

"I enjoyed it" he mumbled. Lily groaned into his chest smacking him in his peck trying not to think of the toned hard muscle.

"Of course you did"

"Are you ashamed of me?" he whispered

"No. Just that my father had to find out this way"

"Lily!" Harry Potter's voice echoed down the hall. Springing to attention Lily shoved Scorpius into the closest broom closet, slamming the door shut.

"Over here Daddy" she called back "Scor just shhh" she pleaded to the door.

Harry jogged into view with her uncle, brother and cousin close behind, she internally groaned. "How's it going boys?" she laughed nervously. Albus couldn't take it, waving his finger like a mad man getting in her face he hollered.

"Scorpius Malfoy?! First Chris now my sworn rival?"

"Al" Lily and her father groaned in unison.

"You are in so much trouble when I tell James!" he continued

"Oh shut it!" She screamed.

"Why do I, your own brother has to find out when your practically straddling him in the great hall?"

"I was trying to get a point across"

"What? That someone could die from a heart attack at 17?!"

"That he's mine" she glared down her brother.

"Oh my god." gasped Ron turning to Harry "That's the look Ginny used to give me before she hexed me" Ron seemed to be hiding behind Harry slightly.

"In that case…" Harry chuckled "Come out of the closet Mr. Malfoy" Lily whimpered as Scorpius came up behind her and her father just stared blankly at her face. "When did this start?"

"Officially?" she asked

"Emotionally" Harry knew his relationship with his current wife had started far before they ever got together.

"Probably the first day I met him" Lily was having difficulty avoiding everyone's shocked penetrating eyes, especially the ice blue ones of Scorpius Malfoy's. "Stop it" she mumbled.

"I knew it!" laughed Hugo "I knew during sorting when you were sitting between him and Bianca Jones!"

Harry just looked at his flower and sighed. "Come on Lily we are going to go for a walk"


"Daddy?" Lily asked hesitantly. She and her father had been wandering round the grounds for a quarter of an hour and he hadn't said anything besides commenting on the restoration of the womping(I just want to say when I spell cheked this, womanizing as one of the words) willow "Are you angry with me?"

"No" he raised his eyebrow at his only daughter "Should I be?"

"To be honest I'm not quite sure"

"Well we'll just have to ask your mother then"

"I suppose"

"What do his parents think?"

"I don't know" she came to a halt glaring at the sun in contemplation.

"Do they know?" Harry Potter asked with an amused smile.

"I don't know" Lily repeated this time with a hitch in the pitch of her voice "I should ask him though"

"Probably" Harry laughed "Now, who is going to tell your mother and James?"

"No one?" Lily asked hopefully.

"Lily"

"Dad"

"Lily"

"Fine" she grunted as she headed back to the castle "But I will be in a multitude of pain"

"You'll get over it"

"I can't believe you would turn mother and daughter against each other!" Lily called behind her to Harry who was 15 meters away.

"A man has got to do what a man has got to do to keep out of firing range"

'Love you too!" She called

"I'll see you at Hogsmeade tomorrow"

"Okay!"

"With James!"

"Blah!"


"Scorpius, get out of the closet" Lily laughed as she opened the broom cupboard.

"Sorry I wasn't sure if I was aloud out" he huffed. Truth be told. Scorpius had been silently following Lily and her father during their discussion. Which brought many issues to the forefront of Scorpius' mind like was he going to tell his parents about them? Did he think that they would really care? Lily and he had been strolling down the hall to get some privacy in their common room with Scor's hands in his pockets and Lil's arm weaved through his. When they opened the door and realized that their dorm was empty, Lily started it with a simple kiss on the cheek. As they progressed deeper into the room Scorpius kissed her temple. Then Lily kissed the sensitive skin behind his ear. After, Scorpius kissed her neck. Lily's peck to his lips was just that, a peck. Scorpius kissed her harder as they sat on the couch. Scorpius leaning against the arm rest and Lily sitting across his lap. When Lily's hands began to trail down his shirt is when a calm Scorpius stopped her and asked with a cocky smile "So I'm yours?"

Lily was flustered and extremely sexually agitated, with her cheeks rosie and her hair slightly askew she griped "Well I practically broadcasted it to the entire school today, just thought I should say it out loud"

"So are you mine?" he countered

"No"

"What?" He was angry.

"I belong to no one"

Scor glared at her, not liking the unbalanced dynamics of this relationship… if he could even call it a relationship. It wasn't even that they weren't balanced. He could live with unbalanced, just as long as he was the one with the most say. With Lily Potter, that most definitely was not going to happen. Unless he pulled the true commitment card.

"I want you to meet my parents"

Lily's face shifted from amused defiance to pure terror in 13 seconds flat.

"What!" she shrilled.

"Well, I will be meeting yours"

"Just my father!"

"Then meet just my father"

"No!"

"Then I'm sorry I can no longer to promise to stay out of the broom cupboards with the Hufflepuffs" he grinned wickedly.

"You wouldn't"

"Who says"

"Your sanity"

"I can't be sane if I've kissed you"

"Bitch" she spat at him.

"So you'll do it?"

"Yes"

"Smashing"

Lily sat in silence glaring into the always roaring fire becoming more enraged by what she had just been tricked into finally turning to an arrogant Scorpius screaming in his face "How can you be so calm?"

"Lily?" came a soft voice from the door "I need your help"
