Previously on Unplanned Meetings and Holidays:

-Scorpius admits to himself that he likes Rose. He kisses her on the nose during the snowball fight.

-Rose wants Scorpius to kiss her.

Both of them are completely oblivious to the other person's feelings...

Saturday Morning, Holidays start:

Rose's POV

"Bye Tessa! Owl me, alright?" I said hugging my best friend Tessa Finnigan. Lots of people were standing near the carriages that would take us to the scarlet Hogwarts train.

"Definitely Rosie. Happy Christmas!" Tessa replied backing away and going back to the castle. I watched her light brown hair sway in the cold December air and I shivered lightly.

My little brother, Hugo, called me so I climbed up into the carriage along with my other cousins and we flew towards the train.

I was waiting patiently for the line to move forward so my family and I could find a compartment, but it seemed to be taking a while.

So here I was left to stare at Scorpius Malfoy's back. Actually it was quite a nice back...I could see his shoulder blades and the muscles of his back since he had taken his cloak off (the whole train was already heated).

My eyes traveled lower, and I felt my cheeks blush when I realized what I was doing.

All right, so I was attracted to Scorpius.

But that's all this was. It's just a physical attraction—which is really understandable when you look at his face. He had silky white-blonde hair that begged you to run your fingers through. And his eyes were stony gray orbs that could pin you down with a fierce glare, or twinkle with amusement. His nose and ears were fairly normal, but his mouth was definitely unique. Scorpius could easily snap at you with his sharp tongue, but just as well be sweet and caring. Plus, his lips looked so soft, full, and so utterly kiss-able.

My mind focused to attention when Albus prodded me in the back; the line was moving.

And I watched as Scorpius walked ahead—the familiar swagger in his steps. He was cocky, and his personality didn't make me love him anymore.

Which is exactly why this tiny crush was okay. It didn't mean anything.

But as soon as those thoughts crossed my mind, Scorpius stopped and darted into a nearby compartment. I curiously peered inside, and saw him helping a blushing first year with her owl cage (she was too short to reach the rack).

His shirt lifted slightly to reveal a pale stomach with toned abs.

In Tessa Finnigan's wise words: day-um.

I heard an annoyed huff behind me, and I hurried ahead to find an empty compartment.

My family is huge. I knew this for a while, but sitting in the cramped compartment was just too much, especially since I was squished next to a certain person: Scorpius Malfoy.

I wanted nothing more than to escape to a separate compartment, but that didn't seem like an option.

Godric, I couldn't even focus on the book I was reading—it was too loud.

There was a thunderous boom and I looked up to see Fred's face black with soot. He was playing Exploding Snap along with several of my other cousins: James, Lily, and Hugo. All of their eyebrows had been singed off within ten minutes of the game.

Scorpius shifted near me, and I had to remind myself to not look at him. Sometime through the chaos, we ended up sitting next to each other. But I didn't even know what to think. He kisses me and then ignores me? Okay, yes it was on the nose, but it seemed different and I couldn't figure out why it even happened in the first place.

I physically shook my head, there was no point dwelling on those details again. Merlin knows I was obsessing over it in my dormitory when we came back inside the castle that Wednesday afternoon.

With a heavy sigh I closed my book and looked to the left of me where Albus was sitting. He was slumped against the wall with his mouth slightly agape. He was sleeping contently, which didn't make a lot of sense since the game made loud noises. But I guess I didn't have anything to do either.

I laid my head against Al's shoulder and closed my eyes and breathed in his familiar scent. It was comforting and the rhythm of the train lulled me into a peaceful sleep. Even the occasional explosions sounded distant. I felt my eyelids droop heavily and my vision grew fuzzier. I yawned tiredly, and closed my eyes.

Scorpius' POV

Rose's thigh pressed harder against mine, further distracting me.

Of course, everything about her was distracting. Ever since I realized that I loved her, it had become harder and harder to ignore my attraction to her. I even slipped up that Wednesday afternoon, and I kissed her. Luckily I quickly aimed it at her cute button nose. But I was still incredibly frustrated with myself because I did that in the first place. Something had just come over me when I saw her lying there in the snow, looking afraid because she thought that I would hurt her.

So instead, I kissed her...on the nose.

But I knew this was more than just hormones. I love her personality as well. She was loyal, and she stood up for what she believed in. She wasn't afraid to tell someone off (I knew this firsthand). And she was kind and caring. She helped her family and friends - easily comforting them in whatever way she could. Plus she had a great sense of humor.

But I knew that we would never be together. It was a dream, and I couldn't keep hoping. It was better to pretend like that kiss had never happened...

A lock of hair fell down into her face, mocking me in such a way that made me want to push it back, and caress her pale beautiful face.

I sighed tiredly and looked away from her sleeping figure.

Her petite body shifted again, and suddenly her head came to rest on my shoulder. I heard her sigh contentedly, and nuzzle against my arm. I froze in surprise—her sweet, tantalizing scent filled my nostrils, settling comfortably around me.

Merlin, she has got to stop torturing me like this. If I could have my way, she would be on my lap and properly sleeping against my chest.

I shifted and pulled Rose firmly against my chest so her head wouldn't keep slipping down. We stayed like this for the duration of the train ride: her sleeping peacefully, and me avoiding the curious expressions of her cousins. Instead I watched the snowy landscape speed past, as we made our way to Platform 9 ¾.
