Okay, I was three reviews short, but still – I couldn't resist posting this next chapter. Let's say this is an experiment chapter- I don't normally write from a male's perspective. So if you have any helpful suggestions that would be awesome, anyways thanks for reading my story this far!
Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter.
It's been so embarrassing these past few days, why I didn't think before dating my enemy's best friend is beyond my mind, why didn't I think? All the glares from the red heads that pass me mean one thing – they are all from the Weasly clan. Don't think I'm stereotyping, I'm not trying to at least – no one else in this school have red hair besides them, oh, and Lilly of course. I heard from Roxanne she inherited it from her Mother, surprise, surprise – is a Weasly to.
This information has come quickly too mind these past few days- because, well because I just need to be friendly to them, in their minds I completely hate Roxanne and fell for a famous Potter instead. But this isn't the answer, not at all – nowadays I'm Roxanne's so-so "friend", which is good cause then she won't throw me of Lilly, the others just have a different idea of what I've done – they think I'm my farther, but I'm not. I'm hoping Mr. Potter will give me a chance – I am going have to meet him eventually.
When Lilly comes up to talk to me- it's hard to explain, it's like my day suddenly becomes way good, I suppose like when your favourite TV show has a new episode, but it's more than that – I'm 2 years older than her, I think I love her. She won't understand – she has a crush on me, I've had a crush before, I know how it feels – it feels very different from being in love. Which is sad, in only one possibility – she will get fed up with me.
"Scorp?" I hear my name being called by none other than Lilly herself. "Yes?" I yell out, I don't know where she is – I'm in a middle of the corridor, on a Saturday – trying to find something useful to do.
"Where have you been?" She asks me,
"I've been here, what have you been talking about?" I reply, she starts a long sigh.
"Must have been my family – they are always trying to keep us apart." She answers me, this makes sense – but I didn't think they would go this far – I'm not my farther. "Seriously – I have to meet your family – I'm sure they think they are looking at Draco." I say to her.
"Draco?" She questions me – we still don't know heaps about each other family's. "My father's first name.." I reply, she looks at me oddly, but doesn't say anything.
"I'm surprised we haven't been interrupted by Rose yet." I say, trying to stay clear of the subject. She blushes,
"Rose is on a date with her boyfriend." She tells me. I blush, I try not to – but it's impossible, I haven't even asked her on a date yet. She laughs at my face which makes me even more embarrassed. We stand there awkwardly for the next few minutes, until I finally get the courage to ask her out,
"So, would you like to go on a date to our hogsmade trip coming up?' I ask her, I feel myself blushing bright red.
"Sure Scorp." She smiles and winks at me as she walks away, as soon as I turn the corner I find James there.
"You asked my sister out on a date, when she is two years younger than you?" He asks me, his eyes are pretty mad at me, I can just tell with that sort of thing. "Look, sorry – James, I can't help I like you're sister ok, I'm not my farther thought, I thought you of all people could understand that." I tell him, his face turns surprised at my remark,
"You thought I thought you were like your farther?"He exclaims to me, it's as if James never thought it about that way. "Yeah.. What were you thinking?" I ask him.
"Dude, she's my little sister, what would I be thinking?" He questions me, I think about this – I would try to protect them. "Sorry, Um – I won't hurt her or anything.." I reply, this lightens James mood quickly, it's really easy to tell.
"Okay, sure – see you – um around." James says as he walks ahead of me in the opposite direction. If me and Lilly ever get married – I doubt there would be much communication between me and James.
"Scorpius?" I turn around to see one of my cousins, Greta, she has the same blonde hair like me but blue eyes.
"Yeah?" I ask her, she looks as if she wants to tell me something but can't decide.
"I have a crush on Danny." She replies, what is it with 14/15 year old girls getting crushes? And isn't this guy like, I don't know – Gay? "Do you mean the Hufflepuff Danny that likes boys?" I ask her, trying to be reasonable.
"Yes, isn't a shame? With his bright red hair and green eyes? I didn't know who else I could talk to that would keep this a secret." She confides with me, like it will end her life if it goes around the school.
"Don't worry Greta – you're secrets safe with me, just remember the guy is gay, not into girls. Just try not to be like the creepy stalker girls-" I get cut of my own words.
"Creepy stalker girls?" She asks me, confused.
"Yeah, the girls that stare at you in class and think we can't see them, seriously – I've had a lot of them. I'm pretty sure they stalk you through your friends to, so don't try anything like that. He's not interested in girls." I try to explain to her, a lot of people in school have had crushes on these gay guys, it's really awkward for them, I've talked to a few; since I've had to let down a couple of girls in my day, which I tried to do nicely as possible like with Roxanne, but some of them can be brutal, do Hex's on you or pretend they never heard you say that and continue stalking you.
"Oh – ok, thanks' for the advice, but it's pretty impossible to keep myself from staring at Danny, anyways, thanks!" She quickly walks away and I notice that a Slytherin was giggling from over hearing our conversation.
"Hey, you." I tell them, trying to make my voice sound frustrated, I always have a tough act to hold up in Slytherin, it's hard to explain.
"Yeah?" She looks up at me shyly, "Don't you dare tell anyone – or I might hex you bad enough for a whole year, do you understand?" I reply, her eyes suddenly widen with fear in them, she nods and runs away, Greta owes me big time.
"What where you doing?" I hear a voice behind me, I turn and see Albus, who has a confused look on his face.
"Um, - I – I was, um, telling her the teacher called her for detention." I try to lie, if Albus found out about my tough side, he probably wouldn't think it was an act.
"What where you REALLY doing?" Albus asks me again, I start stuttering, no words come, I am so dead.
So, that was a long chapter – yes, let's assume it's that time of day where everyone is out of there common rooms. Feedback welcome, no flames please, constructive feedback welcome; I won't post this chapter till I get 6 reviews this time, hehehehe.
