Long Waits Over

Scorpius laid awake in his dorm alone for hour thinking about Rose. 'I'm such an idiot around her!' he berated himself, 'She's so, so I don't know but I shouldn't be noticing it anyway. She's my best friend.'

The door squeaked open quietly and the Twins, Sam and Mark Sable, came in and crawled into bed. Their breathing evened and a soft snore came from Sam. He sighed and rolled to face away from the two sixth year boys.

A few minutes later the rest of Scorpius' dorm mates were sleeping peacefully. Scorpius decided that he would not likely be able to sleep with out a sleeping draught, so he got out of his warm bed and pulled on his robe.

Rose went to her dorm and changed into her favourite PJ's , which happen to be a midnight blue button down shirt and matching pants that were slightly too long for her legs. She quietly closed her trunk and pulled on her silk robe. Why so much silk? Because Ron very much a must-be-the-best-for-my-daughter kind of dad.

Rose found that Longbottem wasn't that bad at detentions. She watered all of the plants in greenhouse number four. After that she mostly just sat. She went down to the common room with her favourite book that she had gotten from her mother, Hogwarts: a History.

Sitting in her favourite cushy blue chair by the fire, she read about the Battle of Hogwarts, though she found a few mistakes according to what she had been told by her parents, Ron and Hermione two of the first 'Golden Trio'.

After reading half the chapter she heard someone stomping down the boys' stair case. She closed her book and slipped into the shadows.

Scorpius sighed; he could have sworn he heard someone in the common room when he entered. Half way across the room he was tackled to the floor, he almost screamed until he saw the familiar bushy hair of his best friend. 'What the blood hell?' he thought. 'I won-…'. His thoughts were cut of by Roses lips on his. Now he was thoroughly confused.

Rose realized that it was Scorpius when he stepped into the dim fire light. She couldn't help herself, after seeing his face fall when she said she didn't need to write about him in the bathroom, she realized that he felt the same way she did. She threw herself out of the shadows and tackled him to the ground.

She grinned down at him until she knew he knew it was her and she lowered her lips to his in a light kiss. Her eyes closed on their own accord and she began to kiss a little harder when Scorpius kissed back.

Rose pulled back to look at Scorpius, his eyes were still closed for a moment then he said, "Is this a dream, tell me that this is not another dream."

Rose laughed at her friend and replied, "This is not a dream, did you say you were dreaming about me?"

Scorpius didn't answer but pulled Roses head back down for another kiss.

"Being as you didn't answer, I'm taking the kiss as a yes." She smirked. "How long have you liked my like this?"

"Too long, you?" He whispered.

Rose blushed and whispered, "First year," in his ear.

He chuckled, "And you waited until now to kiss me? When we are in our sixth year?" (They are in sixth, one plus five is six, in case you missed that.)

"I never thought you liked me, I didn't want to lose you as a friend." She said into his chest not looking at him.

"That's why I never told you." He admitted.

Suddenly Rose looked horrified. "What are we going to tell Al?"

"And James," Scorpius shivered under Rose, "He scares me."

Rose laughed and then the horrified again, "Go to bed, we have class in the morning."

Rose hauled herself off of Scorpius's chest and to her feet. She stuck out her hand and pulled Scorpius up as well. Scorpius wrapped his arms around Rose and kissed her on the nose. Rose smiled up at her five foot eight new boyfriend and tried to pull away. "Scor, c'mon, let go I have to go to bed."

"Not yet." He said picking her up an sitting down on the couch with her in his lap.
