Thanks for all the reviews guys! And now we go BACK TO THE HOGWARTS EXPRESS! Yay!

I was considering doing another chapter when they are at home but most of you seem impatient to see some Rose/Scorpius action so I decided to skip straight to the Hogwarts Express. The head's compartment of course. So ENJOY!

Disclaimer: I do not, however much I wish, own Harry Potter. Some things are just not possible.

Back to school today. It's back to the castle, back to my friends and back to Rose Weasley beating me in everything. Everything is going to be normal, I hope.

There is some part of me that knows I should tell Weasley that I love her but the other (bigger and more dominant) part of me knows that that is just asking to be hexed, and possibly bat-bogey hexed by her relatives (aka Lily Potter).

The head's compartment is empty when I get in. I sigh a sigh of relief; I have a few minutes to calm myself down before Rose gets here. I can't believe I love her, it is just too weird. But as my dad said, you can't help it. Putting my trunk up in the luggage racks I notice that my trunk is wearing out, but I suppose seven years of use is bound to take its toll on it. It's raining outside, the rain is hitting the window in a steady rhythm, and it is quite beautiful in its own right. Nothing compared to Rose Weasley though.

I sink down on the seats and close my eyes. I really need to sort myself out. She will never love me back; there is no point in thinking about it. You need to move on Scorpius, big time. I try to myself that it is not that easy.

When I hear the compartment doors open, I don't bother opening my eyes, I can imagine who just came in with my mind well enough anyway. She occupies them most of the time.

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

I have missed the castle so much over Christmas; it will be nice to get back. Transfiguration is going to be great this term and I can't wait to get started, it's my last term at Hogwarts. Wow, it's my last term at Hogwarts.

When I open the head's compartment a certain blonde haired guy is already there. Sitting on the seat, his eyes closed, I am strongly reminded of the start of the year when he fell asleep on the train. He looked so gorgeous right there. Stop it Rose, he will never love you back, stop thinking about him. I ignore him and lift my luggage up onto the luggage rack and take out Hogwarts a History.

About 5 minutes later, when the train has started to move, I hear him speak.

"Still reading that, are you?" Scorpius indicated the book in my hands.

"I'm reading it again Malfoy. I'm not that slow." I told him.

"I know. I was just wondering. Don't get all defensive." He said and put his hands up in mock surrender. I smiled.

"Well I don't always know with you." I admitted. "You're confusing."

"Really?" he asked. "How?"

Oh man I did not want to tell him. He was confusing because sometimes he was a jerk and sometimes he was caring. Sometimes he was funny and other times he was just plain annoying. How do you explain that to the guy you are supposed to hate but actually love? Luckily for me, a distraction arrived. In the form of Al.

"Hey Rose. Can I talk to you?" he said as he opened the door.

"Sure. See ya Malfoy." And I practically ran out of the compartment. "What is it?"

"I wanted talk to you about Abbey Winters." He told me. I sensed this could be a long chat.

"We'll go to your compartment and talk, I have a feeling this could be a long conversation. And I have to help you with your love life since all James does is tell the whole family about it."

"Thanks Rose." He said and we walked down the train. I wish Scorpius Malfoy was as easy to talk about.

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

She walked out of the compartment. She had avoided telling me how I was confusing. I was really curious on what he was going to say. Stupid Potter and his stupid interruption.

"What's up mate?" I heard a voice say and I turned around to see my best mate in the door way.

"Nothing much, what about you?" I asked Vincent as he sat down in the seat that Rose had just vacated.

"It's all pretty good. How was your Christmas? Did your Grandpa go on about marrying purebloods like he usually does?"

"It wasn't that good. Yes he did."

"Oh, that would have been tough. What did he say? What did you say?" Vincent asked me.

"He asked me if I had a girlfriend and then he asked about Lisa. I said I didn't go out with her anymore and then he said 'Pity' and started going on about how there were plenty of other Slytherin purebloods." I decided to leave out the bit about Bella; I didn't want Vincent getting angry.

"Oh man, what did you say to that? You're not the best at controlling your anger, no offence."

"None taken, then I asked him why it had to be a Slytherin and then he said something about how most purebloods that weren't riff raff were from Slytherin. I then got up and started ranting on about why did they have to be a pure-blood and that I was sick of my family's pureblood mania."

"Bet he didn't like that." Vincent grinned.

"Well I didn't find out because I stormed out of the house."

"Whoa mate."

"Yeah and then my dad came out to find me and I told him."

"You told him! You actually told your dad that you love Ro-"

"Shut it please Vincent, what if she comes in?"

"She's up the train talking to Potter, don't worry. I saw her on my way here."

"That doesn't mean that she hasn't finished talking to him and is about to come back. And yes I did tell my dad."

"What did he say?" Vincent asked, his hands were gripping the seat in suspense.

"Not a lot. He just said that it wasn't my fault and I couldn't help who I feel in love with."

"Are you going to tell her?"

"No way on earth!" I stated. I was not telling Rose Weasley that I loved her in a million years. I would die before I did that.

"You should tell her you love her. What's the worst that could happen?" he tried encouraging. I raised my eyebrows.

"A whole lot of bad stuff." I told him bluntly.

"Fine, but I know you'll feel better if you do. I have to go and see Bella now, see you later."

"Bye."

As Vincent got up to open the compartment door, it opened. Rose was there, she looked a bit bothered by something, plus her ears were red. I didn't think much of it as she just came in and sat down. A few seconds later her nose was buried in Hogwarts a History. I sighed. That was so Rose Weasley. I spent the remainder of the journey asleep; you can never get too much of it.

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

After helping Al with his Abbey Winters problem (he had decided to ask her out but didn't know how to do it) I walked back down the train. I was about to open the compartment door when I heard something that stopped me.

"What did he say?"I heard the voice of Vincent Goyle ask.

"Not a lot. He just said that it wasn't my fault and I couldn't help who I feel in love with." Malfoys voice responded.

"Are you going to tell her?"

"No way on earth!" he exclaimed.

"You should tell her you love her. What's the worst that could happen?" Vincent sounded like he was trying to encourage Scorpius. My ears went red at the words 'tell her you love her'.

"A whole lot of bad stuff." I heard Scorpius tell him bluntly.

"Fine, but I know you'll feel better if you do. I have to go and see Bella now, see you later." Vincent said goodbye.

"Bye." I heard Malfoy say.

Having listened to the end of the conversation I opened the door. I could tell that I looked bothered. Scorpius looked questioningly at me. Not looking at him I sat down and got Hogwarts a History out again to hide my ears.

So Scorpius Malfoy loved someone. Not only did he not love me, he loved some other girl. It was truly depressing. But, a hopeful thought struck my mind maybe that will help me get over him.

I highly doubt it.

Author's note: I know this chapter wasn't as good as some of my others but I hoped you enjoyed it all the same. I love letting Scorpius and Rose have little conversations. I think that is why I liked chapter 28 because it was basically all conversation between the two.

So please tell me what you think of this chapter; in a review! Yay, thanks to everyone who has reviewed. It makes everything much more fun to write when you know people are reading your stories and enjoying them.
