Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter and I never will. JKR does and she better write more books or else!!!! (I forgot this last time)

Rose Weasley and her cousin Albus Potter were standing outside a compartment in the Hogwarts Express. This was the only compartment they had found that had room for them. It was empty except for one boy, a certain Scorpius Malfoy.

"Albus, we can't sit in their! Dad, told me to stay away from that boy!" Rose said when Albus suggested they go in.

"Where do you propose we sit then, Rose? This is the last compartment! Besides I don't care what our parents said, he doesn't look that bad."Albus replied.

"Fine. But if we get in trouble, it was your idea." Rose said. It was true that the Malfoy boy didn't look mean or evil or anything like Dad had told her he would be. He looked lonely and sad. He was sitting all alone and that must hurt. She decided she'd be nice to him. Albus opened the door and she stepped inside.

"Can we sit in here?" Rose asked.

Scorpius looked up surprised that someone was talking to him, wanting to sit in here with him. Not many people liked him. People who were on Voldemort's side hated them for betraying them and everyone else hated his family for being on the other side to begin with. He was especially surprised to see a Potter and a Weasley in here, his dad's worst enemies.

"Sure." He said.

"I'm Rose Weasley, and this is my cousin Albus Potter." She said holding out her hand. He shook it thinking she must not know who he was.

"I'm Scorpius Malfoy." He said, thinking that she'd run out in disgust. To his surprise, she didn't even look shocked.

"I know. My dad pointed you out to us on the platform. He told us to stay away from you." Rose said. She noticed Scorpius didn't even look surprised.

"Then why are you here?" Scorpius asked.

"Well. I bloody don't care what my parents think. You look like an okay guy to me." A male voice said. Scorpius had forgotten that Albus was even there.

"Really? Cause no one else does." Scorpius replied.

"Sure. You had nothing to do with the stuff people hate your parents for. You weren't even born yet!" Albus said, adding quietly, "Just like me…"

"But people love your family. You're famous. It's so much better than having everyone hate you right away."

"But still, I didn't do anything to deserve it! I didn't save the wizarding world, my dad did. I have to deal with everyone's expectations, the rumors, the false friends! I hate it!" Albus exclaimed.

"I know how you feel. But I still think you got the better end of the stick." Scorpius said.

"Maybe you did. So are you going to be what people expect?" Albus said, conceding.

"What do you mean?" He asked.

"Are you going to be like your dad like everyone expects?"

"No. I don't want to be in Slytherin even though I'll probably be in it anyway. I mean I don't want to disappoint my father, but if I'm in Slytherin everyone will think I'm just like him no matter what I do. I'm nothing like him. I have nothing against muggleborns or even muggles. In fact, most of my friends back home were muggles!" Scorpius answered.

"Really? You had muggle friends?" Rose piped in.

"Well, most wizarding kids avoid my look the plague so the only people I had to play with were muggles. I also ended up reading a lot."

"So what house do you want to be in, if not Slytherin?" Albus asked.

"I dunno. I guess I'll just let the hat sort me and hope I'm not in Slytherin. What about you Rose?" Scorpius replied.

"I guess I'd like to be in Gryffindor like my parents or Ravenclaw. What house do you want to be in, Albus?" Rose said hesitantly. She really didn't want to be in Gryffindor. She wasn't bold or brave.

"I guess I have to be in Gryffindor. I'm a Potter after all. Potters are always in Gryffindor." He said, like he was resigned to it.

"But what house do you want to be in?" Scorpius asked.

"I just said it." Albus said.

"No you didn't you said that's what you were expected to be in." Rose said.

"Yeah. There's a difference. I mean, Malfoy's have always been in Slytherin, but I don't want to be in there." Scorpius added.

"I really don't know. I don't think I fit in any house. I guess I'll just wait for the hat to sort me like you, Scorpius." Albus said.

"Anything from the trolley?! Anything from the trolley?" A voice called out.

"You guys want anything?" Rose asked, getting out her money.

"You don't have to pay." Scorpius protested.

"I know. I want to. That's what friends do. So I'll get a box of bertie bott's every flavord beans and 12 chocolate frog cards." She said directing the last part to the trolley witch. The witch was staring at the children, amazed that a Weasley, a Potter, and a Malfoy, were joking around and were friends.

Scorpius was estastic. He had friends! Finally!!! He smiled as Rose gave him and Albus 3 frogs each, as Albus accidently ate a booger flavored bean, as they laughed all the way to hoped somehow that they could be in the same house. He really wanted it. Unfortuently, you don't always get what you want.

A/N:

Me: Wasn't that a great chapter? I really got into Scorpius's character. I assure you. He won't be in Slytherin. A clue is in when he said he read a lot.

Scorpius: Why do you keep giving away stuff? You ruin the surprise!

Me: Shut up! I can't be held responsible if you get locked in the closet with Albus and Rose.

Rose: We're not in the closet anymore, Rena!

Me: How'd you get out?

Albus: Elena Rincloff let us out.

Scorpius: Who's she?

Rose: Apparently, she's a character in the story that has yet to be introduced. I think she's part of the prochey too. She's rich and from a pureblood family. Everyone expects her to be in Slytherin. Oh and Al's gonna have a crush on her!

Me: And you accuse me of spoiling the story! Where'd you find that out? I found your notes in the closet.

Albus: Why'd you tell everyone I have a crush on her!! I didn't tell that you have a crush on Scorpius!

Rose: Al!!!!!!!! He's right here!

Me: Why do you guy's get mad at me when I give out spoilers? You do it too!
