Hey Guys! I have finally posted chapter 2. I know it took ages but I will try to post stories quicker. Thanks to all my reviewers (and my bezzie Hannah9Page) and I hope you enjoy this chapter :D


Rose Weasley carefully walked up to the huge double doors leading to the great hall. Her heart beat sped up and her palms felt clammy. She was dreading this day. Coming back to Hogwarts, facing everyone she had run away from, in the most dramatic, clichéd way possible. She was entering the Great Hall alone whilst everyone was eating, just because she missed the first Port Key and had to arrange for another one with the French Ministry. Could her day get any worse?

She hesitantly opened the doors and winced as they flung from her soft grip just to slam in to the walls making her known to all of the students and teaching staff in Hogwarts. She looked down, trying to avoid the staring students, she looked up again, they still hadn't stopped so she just to decided to ignore it. Inhaling a deep breath she started to confidently walk forward (just how she had learnt at Beaxbatons) a slight smile on her lips to hide her anxiousness. Spotting her enormous family (excluding Albus who was sat with his friends on the Slytherin Table) at Gryffindor she waved slightly and took a seat next to Dom, who was too busy snogging her new boyfriend of the month, Alexander White who was the top chaser on the Gryffindor Quidditch Team, to notice her arrival.

Rose coughed lightly, making her presence known to the Veela who detached herself from her boyfriend and turned to look at Rose, ignoring the disgusted looks from the rest of her family.

"Rose!" Dominique squeaked throwing her arms around the petit red head.

"Dom, calm down. You're attracting more attention to us." Rose looked around; people were still staring at her, bewildered looks on their faces.

"Sorry but I haven't seen you since Christmas, because someone decided to spend the whole summer in France instead of rescuing me from the constant Wedding Planning at home!" Dominique huffed flicking her hair. Rose heard a few male sighs (the normal noise circulating Dominique Weasley.)

"You could have come and stayed with me and my parents at the small wizarding village we were staying in. It was so beautiful!" Rose said as she reminisced about that summer.

Dom just shrugged flipping her silky hair again (more sighs) "I know, but I had a date with this really cute muggle and I just had to go!"

Rose rolled her eyes.

She felt someone kick her underneath the table, "OUCH Hugo!" Rose clutched her shin and rubbed it as if to make it better.

"Why are you late?" Hugo Weasley, Rose's little brother asked whilst shovelling food into his mouth, he was just like his Dad. "Mum trusted you to stay on your own with some friends for the last week and you worried her to death when you didn't come home!"

Rose looked down at the plate of food in front of her shyly "I met a really nice boy and I just got carried away sn-talking," Her cheeks flushed red as she said the last word.

"Yeah right! Wait till I tell Dad about this! That will make two howlers in the first week of school!" he said sniggering to himself.

Dom, who had nosily listened to the whole conversation, gave Rose a look that clearly said 'Details'.

"Later," Rose sighed, going back to playing with her food.

Just out of the corner of her eye she thought she saw Malfoy staring at her so she turned to look at him, shocked to believe that he couldn't keep his eyes off her. When he noticed that she was staring right back at him he just smirked, the ultimate signature of any and all Malfoys, and got back to eating his food.


Scorpius POV

I couldn't stop staring. Rose Weasley had changed.

I found out she was coming home two months before the summer and had planned some new pranks already. I was ready to completely ruin Rose in front of the whole school, but once the doors opened and I could see her, it all flew out the window.

Her hair, which one would often mistake for a birds nest, had calmed down, becoming wavy red curls falling to her waist which only brought out her brilliant blue eyes. Her short but lanky figure had grown curves in all the right places which made her look more like a woman then before. Even her walk had changed, from shy, nerdy, bookworm to a graceful sway that looked confident and enticing.

"Hey, Scorp, stop staring!" said Alana Grissom, my 'girlfriend' or whatever she thinks she is to me huffed "And close your mouth before a bug flies in!" she gripped my jaw, which I hadn't realised had been hanging open until she mentioned it, and closed my mouth.

"Yeah, whatever" I mumbled brushing her away whilst continuing to stare at the new and improved Rose Weasley.

She turned her head and looked at me, a confused expression on her face, so I just smirked at her and went back to eating my food, leaving Rose looking flustered. And the balance has been restored.


Rose POV

Headmistress McGonagall had just told everyone to go to bed, and that was just what I was doing when I was stopped by none other then Scorpius Malfoy, the bane of my existence.

"Hey Weasley" he said silently laughing at the shocked expression that plastered my face. "You look…"

"Ugly!" I interrupted infuriated by the mere sight of him, "Was that what you were going to say? Or was it disgusting, repulsive, stupi…"

He pushed me back against the wall and put his arm next to my head "I was going to say nice, but if you prefer it I could say those other things to you?" he asked, his silky voice whispered to me, it was only then that I had realised how close he was. I could feel his breath tickle my throat as he lent forward towards my ear "But that would be lying," and with that he turned and walked towards the Slytherin Dungeons, his robes billowing behind him.

"Shit!" I said banging my head against the wall as I tried to compose myself. "Don't let him get to you!"


I like this Chapter, its a lot better then my first one and I can't believe that I wrote over 1,000 words. YAY ME!

I am going to make this about 15-20 chapters but I was wondering if I should make another Fic following on from this story (possibly an M) about their life in 7th Year as Head Boy and Girl. What do you think?

Also if you have any ideas for this story, it would be great if you could tell me so I can incorporate some of your ideas.

(p.s. thanks to "me" I completely forgot that the Slytherins live in the dungeon and I wanted Al to be in Slytherin for a part later on in the story, I also wanted to develop a friendship a friendship between Al and Scorp where they are in the same house but for this story I wanted Scorp to be a 'bad boy' and thought that his character would fit better in Slytherin and thanx for all the reviews!)

Thank You and as always R&R
