Scorpious p.o.v
I woke up with a start. I couldn't remember why I felt so nervous. Then it hit me like a ton of bricks. Lily and I were going to tell her parents and other family about us going out. Her dad's going to be the worse. Lily doesn't think so though. She thinks her uncle Ron will be, but I really don't think so. Looking back to how he reacted when he caught me and her 'sleeping' together, I personally think he's going to throw me out. Well we can only hope he won't curse me like his youngest son did. I pulled myself out off my bed and walked to the bathroom. I jumped into the shower and let the hot water relax me. After 10 minutes I hopped back out and made my way back in to my dorm. I pulled on an old t-shirt and a pair of jogging bottoms. After I had got dressed I went over to Hugo and Frankie's bed. I needed to do something that would make me forget about tonight.
"Oi. Wake up." I shouted jumping back and forth from each bed. Luckily there was only the 3 of us I out dorm, otherwise there would be some very angry people who had just been woken up by some lunatic shouting. I laughed at Frankie waking up, not realising that Hugo was awake also and was just about to push me off his bed.
"Oww. What was that for?" I shouted clutching my bum. I pulled myself off the floor and made my way back to my side of the room.
"For waking us up. It's too early!" Hugo said yawning clutching his face, while wiping away the sleep from his eyes.
"Well we need to be up early, the train leaves at 10 am and its 8 now. And we still need to finish packing and we still need breakfast." I said while making my bed.
"Yes we do, but your forgetting something." Frankie said pulling himself out of bed.
"What?" I asked
"We are wizards." He said pulling his wand off the bedside table.
"Ahhhh" I said, while reaching over to get mine of the floor where it must have rolled in the night. "So we are" I went over to my trunk and lifted the lid. "Pack" I said while waving my wand. Suddenly all my things were in my trunk, not very tidy but it sure did do the job. I quickly checked around our room to make sure we had packed everything, while Hugo and Frankie got dressed. Once we were all ready we levitated our trunks to the common room. I put my trunk down with everyone else's. Just as I was about to make my way to the great hall someone put their hands over my eyes. Knowing that it was lily, I pretended to act dumb.
"Who's that?" I asked trying to prize her hands away from my eyes.
"I don't know!" she said while holding her hands closer to my eyes.
"Me either. I might have to kiss you to see if that will make you stop. Let's just hope my girlfriend doesn't see." I giggled. She pulled her hands down my face and she then traced my lips. But before she could even think to kiss me someone interrupted us.
"Oi. You two. Not everyone knows about you two. Okay, and if you don't want people to start asking questions then I would stop." Hugo said pushing himself between us.
"Good point" I said while pulling back a little.
"Yeah. I can't wait to tell my family" she said jumping a little.
"I can" I muttered.
"Listen here scorpious malfoy. They are not going to hurt you, okay. I won't let them!" she said pulling me into a room.
"get a room" hugo said pulling us away from each other.
"Fine. Come on lily, your room or mine?" I joked, earning me a hard punch in the arm.
"I was joking. Come on I'm starving" I said pulling lily towards the door.
"I don't want to do this lily" I begged as we got off the train. We had just arrived at platform 9 ¾ after an incredibly long train journey.
"We have too. Albus, Hugo and Frankie have promised not to tell them, but we need to. There our parents for merlins sake." Lily cried grabbing her bag and slinging it over her right shoulder.
"I know but I do kind of want to see next year." I said making my way towards the door. I know that they all needed to know but to be perfectly honest I was scared, not because of their reactions but of the way I felt about lily. I loved her I knew I did. But what if this relationship didn't work out, what if she found someone better than me? I would be crushed if she left me.
"Shut up winging." She smiled, as I helped her out of the train. She smiled before rushing over to her parents, family and other best friend, teddy. Luckily for me my parents were talking to harry and Ginny, so I made my way over too, just in time to see lily reunite with her family.
"Daddy!" she said pulling harry into a hug.
"Hey princess. How was school?" Harry asked his only daughter.
"Brill dad. Though the preparations for them stupid o. is so hard. Why of earth do we even have to do them?" she asked as harry gave her a kiss on the forehead.
"You know honey. I really don't know." He said pulling away from lily. I stopped watching the reunion and I made my way over to my parents.
"Hey mum" I said pulling her into a hug.
"How's my little Gryffindor?" she said returning the hug.
"Fine thanks. Are we still going to the Weasley's tonight?" I asked already knowing the answer. Ever since that time in my 1st year when I left my grandfather in his room, my mum and dad had become really good friends with the Weasley's and potters. Sure some took a lot more persuading than others but hey we can't have everything.
"Yes. We need to be there at 7 to help." She said turning to my dad.
"Hey dad" I said pulling him towards me for a hug.
"Hey scorpious. Looking forward for tonight." He asked pulling away.
"Yes" I lied. Luckily neither noticed that anything was wrong. We said goodbye to the potters and Weasley's and we went towards the fireplace to floo home.
Lily's p.o.v
Daddy!" I said pulling him into a tight hug.
"Hey princess. How was school?" Dad asked me. I inwardly groaned as I remembered how hard the teachers were making us work. But then I remembered how scorpious was helping me and I smiled. A little.
"Brill d Daddy!" she said pulling harry into a hug.
"Hey princess. How was school?" Harry asked his only daughter.
"Brill dad. Though the preparations for them stupid o. is so hard. Why of earth do we even have to do them?" I asked as dad gave me a kiss on the forehead.
"You know honey. I really don't know." He said pulling away from me. Me either. It wasn't like n.e.w.t.s. they actually meant something. I suppose though that my o.w.l grades will help me get into the classes that I need next year but still. What if I don't get the actual grades? Then what will I do?
"Hi sweetheart" my mum said, pulling me closer.
"Hi mum. I've missed you" I smiled hugging her back. I put my head in her neck. I missed both of my parents when I was at school. Them and teddy were the only people I really missed, as well as my Uncle Ron and auntie Herminie. I saw scorpious leave with his parents. I gave him a quick smile. I was a little nervous about later but I knew it had to be done. I said hello to my uncle, auntie and brother and then I found my best friend.
"Hey lily bean." Said that voice that I had been waiting to hear since Christmas. Teddy lupin my god brother and my best friend (other than scorpious.)
"Teddy, you're squashing me" I mumbled.
"How have you been?" he asked taking my bag for me. I noticed he looked a little sad, but I put it to the back of my mind and started walking.
"Fine, apart from…" I stopped suddenly realising that none of them knew about me, scorpious and albus. "Err… nothing" I said trying not to reveal anything with my face. Teddy stopped.
"Lily, what wrong. Tell me" he pleaded.
"Nothing. Honestly." I said trying to walk again.
"No it isn't. Tell me. Please." He said holding me back.
"I can't." I said while looking down at the floor.
"Yes you can. You can tell me anything."
"You'll see tonight if you come."I said looking up at him.
"Okay" he said not daring to push it any further. He knew how hot headed I could be.
"Come on otherwise we will lose the others." I said pulling on his hand. I skipped along the platform trying to catch up with my parents and brothers.
"So how is you and victorie?" I asked still skipping along.
"… We broke up." He said the smile on his face disappearing. I stopped skipping.
"What? Why?" I asked looking in to his sad eyes.
"I caught her in bed with Michael Jordan." He spat tears falling down his face.
"Omg teddy, I'm so sorry. Come here." I said pulling him into a tight hug. Victorie had never been my favourite cousin, but I would never have thought she would stoop that low, even for her.
"It's ok. It was a couple of months ago but I'm still but over it, you know." He said wiping away the tears.
"come on, and tomorrow you're going to be the irresponsible god brother that you are and you're going to sneak me in to a club, preferably a muggle one and we are going to get you a girlfriend" I laugh hugging him again.
"Ok" he said smiling again. We ran along the platform trying to find my family but we could not find them.
"Where will they have gone? Did you come with them?" I asked, still looking around the train station for them.
"Yeah. They came by floo." He said looking near the floo area. "there." He shouted, pointing towards my dad. I stood on my tiptoes to see them. I might be 15, 16 in 5 days, but I still wasn't very tall, 5 foot 1 inch. I really needed to grow. Teddy saw me struggling to see, so he lifted me up so that I sat on one of his shoulders.
"Teddy. Put me down." I whinged.
"Okay then lily bean." He smiled putting me lightly back on to my own two feet.
"Thank you" I said brushing down my skirt. We both ran over to my parents just in time for me to hear my mum ask why albus had a black eye.
"Which eye?" he asked trying to avoid the situation. "Oh that one. Well Err…. I fell down the stairs." He added when mum pointed to his already fading black eye. Falling down the stairs. Well that was believable. NOT. You could tell by the look on my mum's face that she didn't believe him. Well no-one ever did. "Did you get in another fight?" She asked hand on hip. "I told you not to get into anymore fights with people older than you. How many more letters home are we going to get before it sinks in to that thick head of yours." She said tapping his head with her fingers. It took me everything I had not to start laughing there and then. I saw albus give me dirties but I just ignored them. "Yeah albus you really shouldn't pick fights with people who can fight better." I said still trying not to laugh." Especially not with girls." I mumbled just loud enough for my eldest brother, James, to hear.
"It was a girl?" he laughed. "Oh that's just Brill. Brilliant" he said wiping away the tears that had fallen down his still laughing face. I saw albus turn bright red, but before I could hear anything else I ran towards the fireplace, grabbed a fistful of floo powder and uttered 2 words. "Godric's hollow."
"Jamsie dear…GET YOUR BUT HERE NOW." I shouted down stairs. I needed to get ready for tonight but my stupid brother thought it would be funny to turn my hair, wait for it… blue. BLUE. I had blue hair for merlins sake.
"Yes lily dearest." He said trying to look all sweet and innocent. This really didn't work as he was nearing 19.
"CHANGE MY HAIR BACK RIGHT NOW." I shouted getting closer and closer to him.
"And what would be the fun in that lily pops?" he said popping the 2nd p.
"I really don't know but if you don't change it back right know I know an amazing hex that I will use even if it does mean getting expelled." I said reaching for my wand.
"You. Wouldn't." he said coming closer to me as well.
"Try me!" I said putting my wand on the square of his chest.
"Bring it" he whispered pointing his wand at my head.
"Oh it's on." And before he could do anything I dropped my wand and punched him in the arm making him drop his wand as well.
"What the hell was that for?" he shouted clutching his arm.
"For turning my hair blue, that's what." I shouted while pocketing my wand again.
"You didn't have to punch me." He said rubbing his arm.
"YOU didn't have to turn my hair blue." I said pointing my finger at him accusingly. "Oh you might want to get some ice for that. Albus had to!" I said averting my eyes to his arm which had already started to bruise. I might be small but I could give one hell of a punch.
"You?" he gasped.
"Yep and you'll find out why tonight." I laughed while running out of the door.
"MUM" I shouted while running through the house. I really needed to turn my hair back. I couldn't go to grandma and granddads house looking like this.
"In the kitchen" I heard her shout. I rushed in to the kitchen, just to hear her gasp as she looked at me.
"James?" she asked getting her wand out of her back pocket.
"Yep and how many time do I keep having to tell you not to keep your wand there. You might blow your bum off." I said while turning round so she could perform the spell. She just laughed as she had heard that saying so many times. I heard her mumble the spell and a piece of my hair fell in front of my face, confirming that it had been turned back to its original fiery red.
"Thanks mum" I said turning back round.
"Your welcome darling" she said turning back to the washing up. I hoped back upstairs where I headed for my room. I pulled out a summery dress and laid it out on my bed. Then I went towards my ensuite bathroom. I turned on the shower and I prepared to get in. once I knew that the water would be warm enough I opened the door and I walked in. I felt the warm water take me to a happy place. A place where I could look forward to tonight and not be nervous. Once I had washed my hair, I turned off the shower and I jumped out of the shower and pulled a towel around me. I went back into my room and began to get ready for tonight. Once I was fully dressed I went down stairs to get someone to dry my hair and curl it for me. Magic was so convenient sometimes. After I had got my dad to dry and curl my hair I made my way back upstairs to put the finishing touches to my outfit. It put in some earrings, added a necklace and added just a hint of makeup. Once I had finished I put on some flip-flops and went down stairs. Everyone was ready so we all lined up by the fireplace. I went first, so I grabbed the powder and I floo to my grandparent's house. The burrow.
I felt the warmth of the fire as I landed. The bright green flames engulfing my feet. I stepped out of the fire place and I started walking towards the kitchen where I knew most people would be. As I walked towards the door I didn't notice the box on the floor.
"Shit" I said whilst trying to stop myself from hitting the ground. I closed my eyes expecting to feel the hardness of the floor, but it never came. Instead of pain I felt warmth. Two strong arms were wrapped around my waist saving me.
"Careful" I heard the all too familiar voice say.
"Thanks scorpious." I said looking in to his deep blue eyes. Suddenly the flames were back and out stepped my mum. I scrambled out of scorpious grasp and I started brushing down my dress.
"I Err. Fell over and scorpious was just helping me up."I said, feeling my cheeks go as red as my hair, hoping she would believe us.
"Ok" she said still dissecting our intimate position. I pulled on scorpious hand and I dragged him out of the room and into the garden.
"That was close" he said breathing out. I turned to look at his usual pale face to see that he was bright red and looking very scared and flushed. I opened my mouth to say something but all I could do was laugh.
"What are you laughing at?" he demanded staring at me. I tried to speak again but all I could do was laugh harder at his expression. I lifted my hand and pointed my finger at him still laughing.
"Me? Oh I'll give you something to laugh at!" he said whilst coming closer to me.
"No" I managed to say between laughing. He backed me into the corner of the garden and started tickling me.
"Ahhhh! Scorpious! Stop please" I begged trying to stop his hands.
"Never!" he said still laughing. After about 10 munities of him tickling me he finally gave in once I promised he could kiss me.
"Come here then" I said pulling him towards me. "
"Oh someone's in the mood I see." He joked earning him another punch in the arm.
"Sorry" he said rubbing it. I laughed then realising what we were about to do I re-grabbed him and crashed my lips to his. He responded straight away. His lips moving in time with mine. It was like time had frozen, so it was a surprise when we heard a little squeak and footsteps running away from us. I immediately pulled away gasping for air.
"Who was that?" I asked puzzled. "It can't have been any male from either family cause they would not have run away. It wouldn't have been rose cause she would have screamed it from the roof tops." I spat her name. I hated rose. We had never got along. She was too much of a slag for my liking. She would go out with her own brother if it meant she could get a quick shag. "victories' not here. She daren't show her face round here anymore since what happened with teddy."
"what happened with teddy?" scorpious asked. Of course. He didn't know. Scorpious dad and teddy were distant relatives but had never met until after his grandmother's funeral. Teddy had attended with his grandmother. Andromeda. Teddy's grandmother was draco auntie.
"teddy caught her in bed with Michael Jordan." I hissed. "they were engaged and everything."
"oh poor teddy" scorpious said. He had always been close to teddy since he had become friends with me.
"yeah. But who could have caught us. I mean we don't want them to tell everyone do we." I said getting back to the question In hand.
"let's go inside. We'll soon find out if they have told everyone" scorpious suggested. I nodded. He grabbed my hand and led me inside. Just before we got to the house, I gave scorpious a quick peck on the lips. I dropped his hand and started walking towards the door. I stopped just before the door to see if I could hear anything. Nothing. No raised voices. Whoever had saw us hadn't told anyone.
"come on. Let's face the music" he said grabbing my hand and opening the door. As soon as we walked in, I felt every single pair of eyes turn and look at our clasped hands. Everyone stooped what they were saying, and just sat there open mouths, doing nothing. Then without warning Ginny jumped up and hugged them both.
"I knew it. When I came out of that fireplace and I saw you both, I just knew it. And then when I followed you outside." She smiled still hugging us. Well I didn't expect that. A lot of people were still confused. you could tell by the random shouting of 'what' and 'are they dating?' I laughed.
"yes molly, we are going out" I told my cousin nervously. I looked at my dad and eldest brother, both whose mouths were wide open in shock. I let go of scorpious hand and want over to them.
"dad?" I asked. I wanted to make sure he was ok. He looked a little shocked. He didn't say anything for a few moments and then he mumbled something barley audible "my little girls all grown up!" James looked like he had calmed down, but I watched warily as he approached scorpious, praying that he wouldn't act like albus did.
"welcome to the family." He said holding out his hand. I was gobsmacked. Wow. I didn't expect that from James. Once the surprise had worn off I rushed over to James and gave him a hug.
"thank you" I whispered holding him tight. I looked over to see draco and Astoria near my parents, probably talking over their new findings. I looked over to scorpious who was talking to all my uncles, brothers and god brother and boy cousins. They were probably giving him the talk. Suddenly I was knocked over by sudden impact from 3 of my cousins, Lucy, Molly and Roxanne.
"tell us" they all said together. For the next half hour me and scorpious told all 3 of our families about the start of our relationship, including albus' reaction.
"you did what?" my mum shouted at albus.
"mum I was drunk I don't know what I was doing and anyway we have sorted it out now, haven't we" he said looking at me and scorpious. We both nodded.
"wow lily! you did that to him?" my dad asked pointing to albus' eye.
"Err… yeah" I blushed. We all carried on talking for another couple of hours until draco, Astoria and scorpious decided to leave. after they had said their goodbyes, I got up to say goodbye to scorpious.
"I'll see you tomorrow. Teddy is taking us out. I'll give you the details via owl." I told him while giving him a big hug.
"ok. I'll see you tomorrow the," he smiled while bending down to kiss me. After we said our goodbyes he went to the fireplace. The green flames magically transporting him. after he had gone I went to find teddy to ask him about tomorrow.
"hey teddy! We still on for tomorrow?" I asked him hoping that the answer would still be yes.
"Err… were you serious?" he asked looking at me.
"yeah. And you're taking scorpious as well." I told him.
"ok. Tell him we will pick him up at 8. And tell your parents were going to Err… discover the muggle world!"
"ok." I said hoping off to go tell my parents. after I told them about tomorrow I said I was going home.
I hoped into the fireplace and went home. As soon as I got home. I went to write a letter to scorpious.
Dear scorpious,
Hey. DO NOT LET YOUR PARENTS SEE THIS LETTER.
I have spoken to teddy and he said he will pick you up at 8. Tell your parents that you are sleeping at mine. I am telling my parents that teddy is taking us to 'discover the muggle world' which is not a lie. But you will just have to find out tomorrow.
See you then
Love you always
Lily xoxoxox
Done. I tied the letter to snowy (my owl) and I sent him to scorpious. After that I went into my room to get ready for bed. I got into my pj's and I went into my bathroom to brush my teeth and remove my makeup. Once I had done that, I got into bed. Ready for a night of muggle clubbing.
