Wow! 75 reviews! That is so cool. I am so glad that you guys are reviewing. It just warms my heart!

So I would like to say a MASSIVE HUMUNGOUS thank you to all the 75 reviewers (well some people have reviewed more than once so it is actually less than 75 but each review earns a MASSIVE thank you so if you reviewed more than once you get another thank you).

So THANK YOU! And thanks to everyone who has read, that is important to because without readers there would be no reviewers.

I'm glad you liked the previous chapter, a few people commented on how short it was so I am going to make this chapter a little longer for you. Hope it makes up for it!

For you guys out there wondering why Jack didn't look at Rose after he smelt the love potion, here is the chapter when you find out why. I know the suspense is killing you....just kidding. Also for everyone wondering why Scorpius said yes to Lisa that is also in this chapter.

First bit is in Rose's POV and then after the dotted line it changes to Scorpius's.

You know that the Hogwarts House Elves the best food I have ever tasted (next to Grandma Weasleys of course). Their cooking is always impeccable, nothing is EVER burnt. Unlike Dad's cooking, wow that was an interesting dinner (he didn't cook for awhile after that). I really wonder how they learnt to cook. Well maybe it is just something that House Elves just know, like their elf magic. House Elves are fascinating; they are so nice as well. When I snuck into the kitchens once (Al and James made me, they came as well) they were ever so nice to us. Even though we weren't supposed to have food at the time, they gave it to us anyway. It is really sweet.

So here I am, at the Gryffindor table on a Friday evening, eating dinner. It was as I was eating roast chicken (Professor Nott was so right about the smell of it) and I am realising how the House Elves make the best food ever (as I said before, next to Grandma Weasleys).

The week hadn't been that interesting, Malfoy and I got along (well tolerated each other) when we were doing Head Duties but when we weren't we were back to our old selves. Jack had been strangely distant which was weird. I didn't think too much of it, guys were supposed to be weird like this, weren't they? Plus I still felt a bit guilty about not thinking about him for a couple of days.

"Hello favourite cousin of mine." Al said as he came and sat down next to me.

"Hey!" Hugo said from next to me sounding annoyed. "What about me?"

"Ok, I'll re-phrase that," he said sounding tired. "Hello favourite girl cousin of mine that is in 7th year."

"Why did you need to put all that extra in? You could have just said favourite girl cousin as Hugo here isn't a girl." I said with an eyebrow raised.

"Well I decided to play it safe in case any other of my bijillion cousins hears me." He said simply.

"Fair enough." I noted.

"Yeah, so how was your day?" he said as he tucked into a dinner of roast chicken, potatoes and veges.

"Ok. Malfoy and I got into a fight about the prefects schedules, I got an O for a Transfiguration essay and I got 10 points for answering a question in Ancient Runes. How was your day?"

"Good. Abby and I went for a walk around the lake." He said as he swallowed a mouthful. "She broke up with her boyfriend last night."

"That's good news for you then." I said. Al had been a really good friend to Abby lately and desperately wanted to ask her out but couldn't because she was going out with George Corner.

"Yeah but she said she didn't want to date boys for awhile which really sucks. Sometimes I just wish I could whip up a love potion and give it to her. I can just smell the scent of her hair now."

"Is that what you smelt in the potion?" I asked interestedly. We hadn't really ever talked about it.

"That and strawberry jam and the smell of my Quidditch robes."

"Ew, sweat." That was disgusting.

"No, the smell of the material before I wear it."

"That's better then."

"Yeah. What did you smell?" he asked.

"Chocolate, parchment-"

"Go figure." Al muttered.

"And this minty smell." I concluded.

"Malfoy smells of mint?" he questioned.

"What!" I almost shrieked.

"Well I think you love him and so I reckon that is the smell of him." Al said matter of factly.

"You are utterly absurd Albus Serveus Potter. I do NOT love Scorpius Malfoy. And anyway, if I did he doesn't love me. He smelt this girl in his potion." I said confidently but I still felt a bit jealous of this un-known girl. I have no idea why.

"How'd you know that?" Al said sounding shocked.

"I head Vincent and him talking about it in the corridor." I shrugged.

"Hey Rose!" I head Peter Finnigan's voice say. I spun around on the bench and saw him standing there.

"Hey Peter." I said.

"Jack is looking for you." He said, "He wants to meet you by the lake in 5 minutes."

"Cool. Okay then, I better get going. Thanks Peter. Bye Al, bye Hugo." I called as I walked off.

It was a cool autumn day, the leaves of the trees were blowing in the wind and the sky was grey with the golden sunset off in the distance.

It took me about 7 minutes to walk/almost run to the lake and find Jack.

"Hey, sorry I'm late." I puffed as I caught up to him.

"S'ok." He said gloomily.

"What's up?" I asked "You've been really distant lately."

"Um well, that's kind of the thing I wanted to talk to you about." He said looking at his shoes.

"Yeah?"

"Um well, boy this is hard..." He started.

"You don't like me in that way anymore and you want to be friends? You didn't smell me in the love potion and think that must mean something so you don't think we should go out anymore?" I guessed.

He looked me in the eyes, his blue eyes full of wonder.

"Man you're scary like that. But um yeah. Is that okay?"

"Yeah that's fine if that's the way you feel then sure. I was kind of feeling the same thing anyway." I confessed, I hadn't really thought about it until then but now I thought about it I feel that is a wonder it took us this long to break up.

"Cool. You're the best Rose." He said smiling and we hugged. Jack really was a great friend, we just weren't meant to be. According to Al it was Scorpius Malfoy, or the smell of that mint. He is absolutely crazy, as if I could EVER love Scorpius Malfoy!

Jack and I walked up to the castle together, laughing and joking like good friends. It was some of the most fun we had ever had, we were definitely meant to be friends, not a couple.

..........................................................................................................................................

Lisa was driving me crazy. I really liked her but ever since we started going out she has just gone nuts. I am now no longer allowed to speak to ANY girl without her there, not even Bella and we have been friends for years and Lisa knows that Bella still likes Vincent anyway.

She also seems to be with me all the time, even when I am just hanging out with Vincent or Greg, she is ALWAYS there. It can seriously drive you up the wall. She is almost as bad as Lavender was and man she was clingy.

Lisa also seems to think that she is all that I think about. She got really angry at me and didn't speak to me for days when I forgot our 1 week anniversary of something. It was actually one of the best times I've had when going out with her. A few days without her clinging onto me.

The problem is that I don't know how to end it. We have been friends since before Hogwarts. How are you supposed to tell your long time friend that you don't want to go out with them anymore? Talk about awkward.

At the moment I am spending a lot of my time out in the grounds where Lisa can't find me. Call me a coward if you want, I'm not a Gryffindor. If Weasley ever wants to break up with Thomas (I highly doubt it) then I am sure she'll be upfront about it. That's because she is a Gryffindor. We Slytherins are not stupid. I am quite happy to avoid my crazy girlfriend. For the greater good if you will, I am still going out with her so that we can remain friends. I wouldn't risk my friendship with Lisa for anything. She is just too important. I think this is problem for me with Lisa. We were really close as friends but since we started going out it just hasn't been the same. I'm going to have to end it soon; I just don't have the courage at the moment. I think that is the reason I went out with her, I knew it would be awkward if I said no and she would probably hate me forever. Also if she was the one to break off the relationship at the end then she would have no reason to hate me which meant that we could go back to being friends. But at the moment that didn't look like it so I was just going to have to grin and bear it and try not to break her heart.

I am thinking of the best way to do it when I hear voices ahead of me and move behind a bush to eavesdrop, don't think I'm being nosey. I'm just curious since I recognise the voices.

"Um well, that's kind of the thing I wanted to talk to you about." Jack Thomas is saying to Rose Weasley, he is looking at his shoes, the coward.

"Yeah?" Rose says back.

"Um well, boy this is hard..."Thomas started.

"You don't like me in that way anymore and you want to be friends? You didn't smell me in the love potion and think that must mean something so you don't think we should go out anymore?" Weasley guessed, she probably thinks she is being really clever and thinking of that but she shouldn't be fooled, an idiot could have picked that out.

Thomas looks at Weasley with wonder, how pathetic? It's not like she is physic or anything. She never took Divination.

"Man you're scary like that. But um yeah. Is that okay?" he is saying. 'Is that okay?' well if she says no you aren't exactly going to continue going without her. What a stupid question!

"Yeah that's fine if that's the way you feel then sure. I was kind of feeling the same thing anyway." She says.

"Cool. You're the best Rose."Thomas said as he smiled, they hugged. Now that is a bit much 'You're the best Rose' honestly! Just because she doesn't burst into tears when you break up with her doesn't mean that she is the best. And hugging right after you break up? That is just weird.

And then the two, now officially not dating, Gryffindors made their way up to the castle, laughing and joking.

It sunk into me when they were out of site. Rose Weasley and Jack Thomas, the 'perfect couple' aren't going out anymore. And suddenly I felt much happier. It was like the sun had started shining brightly or something and I was filled with warmness inside me. Kind of like the feeling when you drink hot chocolate, it just warms you up from head to toe.

I don't know what it was that made me feel happy but I did. One of the happiest times I can remember. Nothing and no one can destroy my un-known happiness. Nothing and no one. Did you hear me world? NOTHING AND NO ONE!

"SCORPIUS!" I hear a cry from behind me.

Ok, so maybe one person can. Here again is proof that the Universe hates me. Apparently I am not meant to be happy as I turn around to see my crazy, clingy girlfriend run up to me.

"Where the heck have you been?" she is saying breathlessly.

"Um..." somehow I think 'I've been avoiding you' isn't the best excuse.

Author's note: well I hope you liked this chapter. I enjoyed writing it.

It isn't quite as good as some of my other chapters. I think that is because it doesn't have Vincent in it and Al is playing a very un-funny part. I just love those two characters. I think it has something to do with me always loving the best friend in books, movies, TV shows, you name it, and I'll like the best friend of the main character. They just seem so much cooler than the main character. Of course I still love Rose and Scorpius (especially Scorpius, he is so fun to write) otherwise I wouldn't be writing them,

To be honest I am quite glad that Rose and Jack are over. I just can't warm to Jack as a character, Even though I made him. Weird isn't it?

Anyway I hope you enjoyed this chapter. I assure you that now Rose has broken up with Jack she will be more open to the possibility of liking Scorpius. Also I would like to point out that the reason that Rose isn't at all upset about her break up is because her heart was never in her relationship. It was all her brain telling her "You should like Jack, you should like Jack" and it gave her the reasons to like him. Rose thinks with her brain which is why she doesn't realise she loves Scorpius, he is the love of her heart, Jack was more the love of her brain. What her intelligence told her she should be with.

So I hope that all makes sense.

Wow that is a long author's note.

Oh well. Please Review. Thanks heaps.
