Chapter Eight:
I walked into Runes and smiled right at Scorpius. Scorpius glared. I put my hand on my hip and walked over to a nearby desk.
The two boys sitting there, Elliot and Thomas looked up. I smiled at Elliot, and Elliot looked dumbfounded.
"Hi Elliot." I said flipping my hair over my shoulder, and sending a glace at Scorpius. He was staring his mouth wide open.
"H-hi Rose." Elliot spurred.
I leaned close to Elliot. "Your cute." I whispered. I ran my hand over his.
"Dude." Thomas whispered.
"I KNOW MAN!" Elliot whispered back. I smiled.
"H-hey Rose, uh..." Elliot said looking up at me.
"Yeah Elliot?" I asked.
"Uh, would you, uh, go out with me?" Elliot asked.
I turned and looked at Scorpius, he was standing up his hands digging into the wood.
"Sure Elliot, else, someone else has something to say." I looked at Scorpius again. "Last Chance." I mouthed.
Scorpius glared at Elliot and sat back down.
"Ok then." I said and smiled at Elliot, I leaned over the desk and kissed him on the cheek.
I heard something snap, I spun around Scorpius was gripping he broken quill. I laughed and walked back to my desk. On the way I brushed past Scorpius, "Had your chance." I whispered.
I opened my textbook and buried my face in. I couldn't be more pleased with myself. But still inside my heard felt hurt. I sighed.
After Runes I was walking down the hall, when someone grabbed my arm.
"HEY!" I yelled but they put their hand on my mouth. The person dragged me into a nearby deserted class room.
They threw me into a chair, I looked up, Scorpius was standing in front of me, I stood up.
"Get lost loser." I said, trying to shove past me. Scorpius shook his head. "We are over, done with! You don't want anything to do with me Scorpius Malfoy. Don't think I didn't get the letter. Now let me out of here, or I will blast you to bits." I said pulling out my wand and pointing it at him.
"What letter?" Scorpius asked.
"Don't play dumb." I said.
"No Rosie, I'm serious, WHAT letter?"
"Don't call me Rosie, and this letter." I tossed it at him. He looked down and I shoved past him and out.
I ran all the way to my next class with out looking back.
When all my classes were done, I ran down to the Quidditch field. I changed into my Quidditch robes and grabbed a broom.
I walked out on the field and joined Lily and Hailey.
"Hi." Lily said.
"Hey." I smiled.
During practice, we did drills and James and Albus showed us stuff their mom and dad had shown them.
"If you want to freak some one out, if they are trailing beside your broom, then dive towards the ground and pull up at the last second. It has to be the very last second, it will freak your opponent out." Albus.
"Easy for you to do, your dad bought you the newest and best broom. We have this old school ones." Hank complained.
James smiled and walked off the field.
"Where are you going?" Ronald called. Lily smiled at him as she twirled her new broom in her hand.
James came back carrying four brooms. "For you from my dad, he says we should have the best Quidditch team."
James tossed me a broom I looked at it.
"Oh my god! This is the new Star Struck One-Thousand." Ronald said.
"Yep." James said.
"The fastest broom out there." Hailey said.
"Totally." Albus said.
"Take a lap." James said, so Hailey, Hank, Ronald, and I rose into the air.
"THIS IS EPIC!" I cried, the broom didn't take a lot to move it and if I changed my mind, the broom would turn right then.
"TOTALLY!" Hank screamed.
When we landed I ran to James. "Thank you!" I cried.
"Thank dad later." James said.
With that, the meeting was dismissed and I headed back to the Gryffindor common room, to find Elliot waiting for me.
"Hi Rose." He smiled, I rolled my eyes. Yes Elliot was sweet but in the few hours we had been dating he had been stuck to me like glue.
"Hello Elliot." I said shrugging off my school bag.
"How was practice?" Elliot asked.
"Fine, we got new brooms."
"Cool." Elliot said, I started walking towards the girls' dormitories.
"Is this good night?" Elliot asked.
"Uh, yeah. Night." I said.
"Night my Rose." Elliot said. I rolled my eyes, his guy hadn't had a girlfriend before.
I went to my bed and laid down.
I sighed into the dark.
Why didn't Scorpius know about the letter? He sent it.
"You don't care about him anymore!"
But what if I still did?
"YOU HAVE ELLIOT! And beside Malfoy is a jerk."
I shook my head and closed my eyes.
Maybe tomorrow would be better.
