"This little rebellion is over, Scorpius." His father looked down on him, raising his eyebrows.
"Draco - don't be so hard on him, he must be stressed with everything going on at the moment..." His mother trailed off, looking a little flustered.
All Scorpius could do was smirk, because his 'little rebellion' wasn't over, and it's wasn't going to be over for as long as he could help it. It managed to get his parents into the same room which they hadn't done in months, so in his opinion it was quite the achievement.
"Is that right, are you stressed?" Draco now frowned at him.
"I- I..." And he wanted to just burst out crying, to tell them that he wants them to be together and his world is falling apart around him.
"You're a strong boy, aren't you Scorpius?" He interrupted Scorpius' thoughts again.
"Yes, dad... I'm a strong boy." He sighed, looking to his mother who seemed to see right through him, making him want to hug her and never let her go.
Scorpius sighs heavily, forcing himself to stop looking at the letters that no longer come from both parents, and a photo from the once upon a time that they were happy. He tears it all in half, then in quarters, and just keeps tearing until it's all in tiny shreds. Then, he throws it into the fireplace and watches as it all burns away, blaming the burning in his eyes on the fire that's dancing in front of him.
