disclaimer: yah, you've heard this before. me = me. not j.k. rowling.
Yes! Yes! You heard it first here! I'm BAAAACK! I'm very very very psyched to be back home. ;) And to update again! This is the chapter when everything goes downhill for poor Rose... hmmm... What do you think is going to happen? read and review, y'all. :) I'll be updating again soon.
Lily smiled grimly at Rose. "Looks like you're in trouble now, aren't you?"
A panicked look crossed Rose's face. "What do you mean?"
"God, Rose. Do you even know who that was?" Lily asked, gesturing at the door. "Do you know anything?"
Rose shook her head slowly, ignoring the insult. "Do I want to know?"
"Nope," smirked Lily. "But you'll find out soon enough." And with that, she angrily marched out of the room, slamming the door behind her.
Rose sat on the edge of a desk, feet dangling off the side, trying to understand what had just happened. She felt like crawling under a hole, just to escape everything. The emotions swirling around in her head made Rose feel like a tornado had consumed her. Everything was horrible. Rose had a crush on Scorpius. Brent probably liked her. Her best friend walked out on her. And a Slytherin thought she loved Scorpius. Could things get any worse?
Apparently, they could. As soon as Rose stepped out of the door, she crashed into Brent. Rose pulled away from the tall boy as he smiled at her in a sickening way that made Rose wince.
"Hi, Rose!"
"Hey, Brent," Rose said. "I was just going to go back to my common room... I've got a lot on my plate right now."
Brent nodded. "I know what you mean. My life is very complicated right now."
"Is there anything I can do?" asked Rose.
Brent shook his head vigorously. "Actually, there's something I have to ask you."
"What?"
"Will you... will you go out with me?"
Rose's stomach sank. She couldn't break his heart. But she couldn't lead him on. Where was Lily when she needed her? "Um... sure."
Brent's eyes lit up. "I wasn't sure if you'd say yes. My little sister said you wouldn't... But she's a Slytherin, so I don't trust her judgment."
"WHAT?"
Eek! What's going to happen? poor Rose. Review! Review!
