As I said, this is the follow up of the last chapter. I hope you like it. =)

Chapter 8: Uncovering the Truth

Lily's POV

It has been a week since my little "scene" in the Great Hall. Alright, so it was more of a huge scene. Anyway, moving on, Rosie still hasn't talked to me! She ran out of the hall and has either ignored me or avoided me altogether ever since. I know I completely humiliated her and everything but I've apologised countless times everyday. But no, I'm still not forgiven. I can't stand it anymore. I miss her. She's not only my cousin but my best friend too. That's it, I'm going to make it up to her. Today. No, right now.

I jumped up out of my seat and headed towards the door.

"Miss Potter! Where exactly do you think you're going?" Professor Xavier barked at me.

Damn! I have Transfiguration right now. I hate Transfiguration. And Professor Xavier. The stupid cow. She's had it out for me ever since I accidentally turned her cat into a fly and it flew away. It was only my first Transfiguration class!

I turned around to discover the entire class staring. The cow was scowling furiously at me; her eyes were reduced to slits. Gosh, I hate her.

"Sit down. Now!" Professor Xavier commanded. I resisted from rolling my eyes at her and sat back at my seat.

Hugo, sitting next to me, decided this was yet another moment for his very much enjoyed "Teasing Lily for her absent-mindedness".

"What did you do? Forget you were in the middle of class?" he asked, trying to suppress his laughter. I felt my face heat up. He was right, of course. But there was no way in hell that I would let him know.

"No! I'm not that stupid! I just wanted to see if she would notice if I left" I snapped. He raised his eyebrows at me. If we were in any other class, that lie so would've worked. But Professor Xavier missed nothing. Seriously, nothing.

I ignored Hugo and Professor Xavier for the rest of the lesson. Trying to come up with a way to make it up to Rosie. She really knew how to hold a grudge.

When the bell finally rang, I had a brilliant plan cooked up. After this, she would have to forgive me and owe me big time. I was going to get her and Scorpius together. Like I said, brilliant.

After collecting all the needed equipment for my master plan, I raced up to Rosie's dormitory. I barged through the door, and found her lying on her bed doing homework. Doing homework….She was lost without me.

"Lily! What are you doing?" Rose asked me irritably. Still mad, I see. Well, not for long…

"Rosie! I'm really, really, really, really times infinity sorry for what happened last week but, I think I've found a way to make it up to you" I blurted out quickly, before she started throwing her books at me like last time. I still had bruises.

"And what's that?" she asked warily. She was eyeing my equipment bag very closely. Like she expected it to explode or something.

"I'm going to get you and Scorp together!" I announced proudly. She groaned.

Ok, not the reaction I was looking for.

"Lily! You can't just force something like that to happen! It doesn't work like that. He has to like me as well, you know" she explained patiently.

"I know that! I think he does like you! I'm only two years younger than you, by the way. I know how relationships work"

"How do you know that he likes me? You haven't been spying or anything have you?" she questioned suspiciously.

"I haven't actually, but, now that you mention it, that's the perfect way to discover if he likes you or not. Good idea, Rosie!" I patted her on the head and then quickly summoned my spy kit. What? Spy kits aren't weird!

Rosie was staring at me hopelessly as she watched me pull out two black outfits complete with full face masks.

"Put this on. No one will know who we are" I chucked her the outfit then promptly changed into my own. When I was dressed Rosie still hadn't put on her outfit.

"Rosie, put it on yourself, or I will do it for you" I threatened dangerously.

Rosie then hurriedly began putting it on. I turned back to my spy kit, grinning to myself. I dug out two pairs of binoculars, two walkie talkies and Extendable Ears. This spy kit was, of course, a product from Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes. The outfits could turn you completely invisible with just a push of a button.

I turned back to find Rosie had finished changing. She was gazing at me unhappily. I handed her a pair of binoculars, a walkie talkie and one of the Extendable Ears.

"Lily, do we really have to do this?" she asked me desperately as I pressed a button on my sleeve, turning me invisible.

"Yes, we do. You like him, but aren't sure whether he feels the same for you. We are going to find out" I said calmly as I pressed the button on her sleeve too. I grabbed her hand so I wouldn't loose her, and then proceeded to walking down the stairs and out of the Gryffindor Common Room. Rosie following obediently behind.

After checking the Marauder's Map, which I nicked from James's trunk, we found Scorpius sitting by the lake with Al.

We stopped about 10 metres away, just to make sure they didn't hear us walking or talking, and then put in the Extendable Ears.

We spent half an hour listening to Al talk about his new girlfriend, Cassidy Davies, an extremely nice girl from Ravenclaw. She was the first girlfriend of Al's that I actually approved of. The rest were total skanks.

Anyway, after Al finished blabbing about Cassidy, Scorpius finally got a chance to talk.

"Hey, Al, can I tell you something? You have to promise not to say anything to anyone, if anyone knows I want to be the one to tell them. Promise?" Scorpius started hesitantly. A grin spread across my face. This sounded exactly like what we wanted to hear. I felt Rosie grip my arm excitedly, and I knew she was thinking the same thing.

"Of course, mate. I won't tell a soul" Al vowed.

"Ok, well, this is kinda big" Scorpius took a deep breath.

"This is it" I whispered to Rosie excitedly.

"I'm gay" Scorpius told Al.

Al's jaw dropped, my jaw dropped and I'm pretty sure Rosie's did too.

I looked up at the sky miserably and asked:

"Why are all the hot ones gay?"

A/N: I hope you weren't expecting that. I wanted it to have an unexpected twist. Though it's probably totally predictable. Oh well. Hope you liked it!

Don't forget to review. I like it when people favourite and stuff but I love hearing from you even more. So, review!

Oh and guess what?!! I'm on school holidays! Wooo! I get 2 weeks off. Unlike you lucky buggers with a whole 2 MONTHS of holidays. Just thought I'd let you in on my excitement.
