Hey~ So, this is chapter six, told by Rose's point of view, here she describes the final part of her first saturday as a Seventh Year at Hogwarts. She is very kind for being a Slytherin and she helps Alice. So... I won't write a summary of the chapter, I leave it here, for you to read it. Bye ;)
Rose's Point Of View:
"I'm so sorry Scorpius." I said again looking to his grey perfect eyes.
After visiting him, I went to the Herbology classrooms looking for Alice, Dani and Ally. Great, look who's there… Thomas.
"Hey Weasley! Heard what happened to Scorpius?"
"Yes Thomas, I did heard, I'm coming from visiting him. What do you want?"
"Nothing… why would I want something from a filthy mud-blood" my eyes got wet. I couldn't help it to see people discriminating others! (yeah right, it actually hurt you)
"Don't dare you call me that again!" I told him, taking out my wand when suddenly, this first year was passing by and when he saw us in battling positions, he ran away.
"Really, what if I do mud-blood?" he told me again just to annoy me.
"Expelliarmus!" I yelled making him hit himself with the wall.
"Protego! Tarantallegra" the last spell him casted he said it in such a low voice, I couldn't almost hear.
The next thing I knew was that I was dancing uncontrollably cool!
"Gonna end this fight! Langlock" I said again but he did the same spell… yes, our tongues were kinda pasted to the roof of our mouths. Perfect.
Then, the same boy that ran away about fifteen minutes ago, came again but with Professor Longbottom and the girls following him.
"What is happening here?" he asked
None of us couldn't talk we just made funny sounds with our mouth. Thomas was trying to tell with signs and I was just dancing uncontrollably but very tired trying to talk with my tongue pasted to the top of my room.
"Finite incantatem" said Uncle Neville, "Now, would you tell me?"
"Yes… What happened is that he called me mud-blood and the I told him not to call me that again so he did." I was interrupted by Jake saying:
"Then she did an expelliarmus to me but I did a protego and a tarantallengra so then we both did langlock, trying to end the fight.
"OK, I get it. Detention for both of you this Tuesday at 3:00 with me."
"What? We have Quidditch trials that day at that same hour!" said Jake.
"Yes and we must go to the trials because without us or Scorpius or Jessica, the team won't win! And we need to be there because I'm seeker and he's beater!"
"She's right! And look… we're starting to get along, when was the last time I agreed with her?"
"Plus 15 minutes for complaining"
"But-"
"No exceptions"
Both of us, Thomas and I, looked to each other… If we didn't go to the Quidditch tryouts, we wouldn't be in the team!
"You've done it on purpose! You knew we were the best players in the teams so you gave us detention the same day and the same hour of the Quiddi-"Thomas started.
"STOP TALKING NONSENSE MR. THOMAS!" said Uncle Neville again.
"I AM NOT TALKING NONSENSE PROFESSOR! You know it's true! If Slytherin doesn't wins the cup, Gryffindor will win it!" I saw Thomas arguing with Uncle Neville, he was only gaining more detention for us.
"I SHALL NOT DISCUSS WITH YOU MORE! Both of you, double detention. Weasley, you will clean the trophy room for a week and you, Thomas will wash the dishes in the kitchen for a week too."
"WHAT! BUT PROFESSOR! I DIDN'T ARGUE! IT WAS THOMAS!"
"Now I have a reason: for shouting to a superior. Incredible, Heads, the first ones in the year to get detention. I will owl your parents for a meeting."
"Weasel, this is the only think I want from you: convince Scorpius to change the date of the tryouts."
"I'll see if I can… but it will be difficult." I said, following Dani.
"Wow, Rose Weasley in detention. I think he'll contact your parents. He looked serious."
"Yes! I can't believe it! First ones in the year to get detention. Dad is going to kill me!"
"Well, look at the good side, you will keep your Head badge… I gues…"
"Danielle!"
"Not helping right?"
"No, not at all. Man! I hope Scorp hasn't pasted the tryouts sheet in the Slytherin bulletin board and, I can't go checking as I don't know the password."
"Well, you may ask another Slytherin…" Ally started but I interrupted her saying"
"You're right! Bye, gonna see if I can find some Slytherin."
I went to the most popular place where the Slytherins hanged out which was the Astronomy Tower, Merlin knows why but I have my theories.
I ran upstairs to the tower to find many Slytherins from third to seventh year hanging out there.
"Hi Rosie! It's been a long time since you came here!" said Naty Bukedong, she was my best friend from my house as the other two and Jessica were 'scorfans' and I so wouldn't hang out with girls that liked my boyfriend!
"Yeah, I know… Hey, I was wondering if you could tell me the password to the Slytherin common room because I really need to check on something in the bullentin board…" I wanted to check now because almost every year, the captain would put the paper the first day.
"Sure it's: Hippogrif." She said to me then I thanked her and went to the underground levels.
I saw the portrait whole that lead to the common room and said the pass word. I saw the common room, remembering how many memories lied there. I suddenly saw the bullentin board and saw the paper. I suddenly took it hoping nobody would notice.
I went to the Hospital Wing (with the paper) to ask Scorp if he could change the date:
"Hi love, are you feeling better?" I asked him hurried.
"Yeah, you just came here two hours ago…" I forgot to say I did hanged out in the Astronomy for half an hour or an hour, don't know.
"I… just went to the common room and saw the paper for the tryouts for Quidditch team and… You see… that same day and at that same hour, Thomas and I are going to have detention just for a fight we had. So, I was hoping, as you are captain of the team, you could… well I don't know, change the date…?" I said ashamed of myself.
"Sure, I mean, I don't think my arm will be cured for Wednesday. Anyways, I'd had to change it…" he said looking straight at my eyes with a romantic look, suddenly my ears turned red as if were nervous and by this, he chuckled and I just smiled back at him.
He got me nearer to him. I don't know why but I just had this feeling of kissing him, which I did in a very passionate way, suddenly I heard sobbing, but not anyone sobbing, Alice's.
"Alice…" I said when I knew it was her, separating myself from Scorp and then told him: "I… have to go… Alice…" I started, not knowing how to say it, he chuckled again and let me go.
"Go." He ordered me.
I went to the hallway from where the sobbing were heard (it was one near the Hospital Wing) and saw Alice crying and sobbing sitting in the floor. I just sat with her and of a sudden, she started to explain me everything.
"I followed you advice, I- I was on my way t-to t-talk to him and… and…" suddenly she burst in tears again.
"And what Alice?" I encouraged her so she could finish the story.
"H-he asked a girl to b-be his g-g-girlfriend and snogged her in front of m-my eyes!" She stopped to breathe "and, and I k-knew that if I-I gave him a chance, I would be another one in the LIST! But… but it hurts to see the one you love with some-someone else…" and then she gulped and threw her head to my shoulders.
"Come on Alice, we have to take you to the bathroom and make Albus know what he's missing." I told her, helping her to stand up.
"Yes." She said, almost not crying again.
As I told her, I took her to the bathroom were she washed her face then I went walking with her to Gryffindor's common room. After making sure she was there, I went on my way to hex Albus. I found him with the girl Alice mentioned in the Great Hall, after dinner.
"Excuse me, whatever your name is, I need to talk with MY cousin." I told her taking him away from her.
"Sorry, but I was talking to him and I'm his GIRLFRIEND" she said 'brat' I thought.
"Yes and I'm his COUSIN and I need to talk with him now brat" This time, I took him away, out of the Great Hall and said:
"What have you done?" I told him, punching his arm, it didn't actually made any effect because of the muscles Quidditch had gave him.
"Well… I've eaten, talked, walked, run, and several other things as you may know."
"Have you seen Alice?" I asked him.
"Well… this morning she threw me a pie in my face so I guess I gave up with her." He said with his stupid pride. Why is it in our gens, to have our pride very high?
"She's destroyed. She saw you snogging that girl and telling her to be your girlfriend. It hurt her. You are an IDIOT!" I told him punching his arm again, and again, it didn't work.
"She is?"he asked me surprised
"Yes and you should feel guilty. She was actually going to give you a second chance but you had to ruin it by kissing this girl I bet you don't even know her name!"
"I do know her name! She's called Sarah! Sarah Moffat."
"No you idiot, she's called Sallie, Sallie Moffat."
"Oh…" he said looking to the floor.
"I want you to say sorry to Alice and brake with her. NOW." I told him seriously.
"I can't… I can't go back to my old reputation. I have to have a month with her at least… Wow, I feel like dump."
"You are" I muttered
"Sorry?" he asked me surprised.
"Nothing" I said outloud this time. "Just, try to apologize when you can…"
"Yes… I'll do." He told me and went to his common room.
I went to my room and I was pretty glad Thomas hadn't arrived yet, I wouldn't have to hear any snore. I put on my pajamas and threw myself to bed after such a long day.
