(500) Days of Lily Pedals

So, I finally am able to put down Scorpius and Lily as the characters. Took awhile for them to fix that properties bar. Anyway. Here you are. Next chapter. Hope you're liking the story those who are reading it but I'd really love some reviews. Pawees? (:

(3, 4, 5)

Scorpius Malfoy set next to a blonde haired scrawny boy and they were both had books open and pencils out. The notebook in front of Scorpius was blank and with a few drawings on the side while his friends was scribbled with notes, some scratched out and some underlined. His friends name was Roy Mudd and was yet another one of Scorpius's best friends. He was also muggle-born which explains why he was so brainy.

Scorpius's mind was elsewhere.

The red headed girl at Quidditch. What was her name? Lily. Right. Lily Potter.

"Hey, you know that red-head girl?" Scorpius asked.

Roy stared at him blankly. "Scorpius, there's like a million red-heads at this school."

"Lily. I didn't know Albus had a sister."

"Where've you been?" Roy asked him. "Albus always had a sister. She just doesn't hang out with us. For good reasons. Now finish your essay. I'm not writing it for you this time."

"Do you know anything about her?" Scorpius asked, desperately.

"I've heard she's a bloody witch. Frank tried talking to her in the common room one time and she wasn't really interested."

"Frank's gay," Scorpius told him.

"So. She doesn't know that."

"Everybody knows that, Roy." Roy shrugged and Scorpius rolled his eyes. "I'm just saying maybe some things were on her mind. She does seem to lay down low, too. I never would have noticed her had she not joined the Quidditch team."

"I'm tellin' ya, Scorp. She's either actually too good for you, or she thinks she is. She's Harry Potter's daughter."

"Albus is his son."

"Albus is a wimp," Roy said, underlining something in his book and copying it into his notebook. "Now, get back to work."

"Why is it that cute girls think they're better than everyone else? Hey, I'm Draco Malfoys son. You don't see me bragging about it."

"Your dad planned the murder of Albus Dumbledore and helped cause a war, Scorpius," Roy said, laughing. "Hardly something to brag about."

"Whatever," Scorpius mumbled, disappointed.

"Do your homework," Roy said.

Roy Mudd was a down-to-earth study-crazy boy. He was totally obsessed with school and usually has all his textbooks read and annotated by the second week. He is not into sports at all and doesn't know the rules that well, either. Roy wants to be a healer at St. Mungo's when he grows up. Unlike Colin Creevey, he does not take pictures of everything. Roy is decent looking. Attracts a few girls but never really goes for them. He has medium length brunette hair and eyes to die for. However, he covers them up with black plastic glasses. His teeth kinda stick out a little bit but it works for him.

"Ugh, fine."


Scorpius was sitting in front of the fire at around midnight on a Friday night. He was not much for partying and hanging out outside. He liked to be inside, most of the time. His diary was sitting on the table that he had just finished writing in. Today it mentioned something about how dull the sky was and how if he looked at the clouds just right, he saw the figure of an eagle picking up a mouse and eating it. But he wasn't quite sure what that meant.

Currently, he was reading a book that Roy recommended him to read claiming that, for a book, Scorpius might actually like it. It was a muggle book, but still. He liked to read just not reading for school. The book was pretty interesting. Scorpius really liked muggle literature after Roy introduced it to him. His favorite, though, was Shakespeare. God, that guy was talented.

The book was about a boy who played a sport. Football, they called it. He used to live on the street and was adopted by a certain family in Tennessee and went on to be a famous football player. Roy said that the book turned into a 'movie', whatever that was.

Someone walked in. Scorpius looked and saw that it was Lily. He decided to play it cool and pretended not to see her, instead just reading his book.

When Lily walked in, Scorpius saw, out of the corner of his eye, her walking towards him. She looked at him for a second and then at the book he was reading.

"The Blind-side," she said, with a smile.

Scorpius did a double-take, to be cool he supposed, and looked over at her. "Sorry, what?"

"I love that book," she said with a smile.

"Y-you do?" he asked.

"Yeah. I love muggle books. My favorite is AJ," she said with a smile. "Love him."

Then, she left.

"Bloody hell," he murmured, staring at where she used to be.
