The next chapter is here! Yay! Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter
My brothers have started avoiding me, I've' tried to ask Hugo what's going on, but he says he isn't allowed to talk to me, which is bad. What could be so bad that my own brother's would stop talking to me? It can't be Scorpius again, we have already discussed this. Lucky today is the Hogsmade trip, you know? When Scorpius asked me out?
I can't wait, I've been trying outfits of and on all day yesterday until I found the right one, it's Autumn now, so I've chosen a green jumper, and blue jeans, but the green jumper stops half way on my arms – so it's very unlikely I will have to take it off. Just before I go out the door I grab the handbag my auntie Hermione gave me, it fits everything into it! Literally! Rose and Roxanne have one as well.
To my surprise, Scorpius is outside of my bedroom I have to share.
"Hello?" I question him, he never is early, so far I've always been the first one to talk to him.
"Hi, I thought we should get going so we can beat the rush." He tells me, I roll my eyes. Sure – nowadays the whole school gets to go out at the same time, that's the only reason me and Scorp can be together, considering he's two years older than me.
He reaches out for my hand, which I let him take. We have been taking it very slow, not as fast as Rose that's for sure!
"What are you doing with my sister?" Albus bombards us as we reach the rest of the school, "Cool off Al, we are going on a date, no need to be so – secure." I tell him, a faint blush appears on Scorpius' face, I wonder why?
"I'll just go join Hugo then." He tells me, as soon as he's gone Scorpius sighs a breath of relieve. "What was all that about?" I ask him, but I get cut off again –
"Students, be quite! Let me mark the roll!" Professor Neville shouts, we all be quite as the whole school listens for their names.
An Hour Later
"You can now go!" He tells us all, we all start running towards Hogsmade, Scorpius grabs my hand, seeing as he is taller than me he can run the fastest, I have to sprint to keep up. "Slow – Down!" I have to yell, the breeze manages to catch my voice and send it forward to Scorpius.
"Sorry!" He says as he stops, He has to catch me as I trip over his legs, I feel myself blush as red as my hair again!
"That's – ok.." I say between breaths, he stands there awkwardly while I catch my breath. Everyone walks past us staring at us like we are a pair of nut jobs, which is quite true! Well, at least I feel like one right now!
The whole school eventually past us until we begin to walk again,
"So, want to go to the three broomsticks?" Scorpius asks me, I nod. It's gotten really quite & awkward, since the school has passed I mean.
He takes my hand once again and we start of at a pace we can both handle, well, it seems as if he is walking extra slow, as if he is trying to make a statement. "Is this your first date?" I ask him, his face meets my own,
"No." He says honestly, "Who?" I ask him, I'm a little bit shocked – Scorpius never makes the first move.
"A girl – I don't like to name names, it didn't work out. She is a year younger than me, she stopped going to Hogwarts once I dumped her." He says, slightly blushing, he really would be a heart breaker, "My Scorp."
"My Scorp?" He suddenly says, it takes a moment to realize what's happened, I've said half my words out loud! "No, I didn't say that – you misheard!" I quickly say, I blush, again! Curse these Weasly gene's!
"My Scorp? – I like the sound to that." He replies, giving me that cheeky lopsided grin! I seriously think I melt right there – he's heard his nickname, he hasn't heard that I think he belongs to me. I can't figure out if this makes him annoyed or happy. Scorpius is the only person I can't see straight through – maybe that's why girls get attracted to their opposites, some girls fall for incredibly loud and annoying, because they are so quite, those girls never have a chance – they need to get over there crush quickly, or distract themselves, especially if they know they aren't the boy's type.
"What did I say about getting to big headed mate?" I reply, I give him my own grin, which actually makes him blush! I heard from Rose that she's noticed through the year Scorpius NEVER blushes!
"And what did I say about thinking you know me?" he says, which annoys me, "You never said that!" I reply, instantly in shock. I still don't know him at all!
"I'm lucky." I say, I surprise myself – I never thought I'd tell Scorpius what I'm about to say.
"Why?" He questions me, we are so close to the three broomsticks, but we stop, and he looks straight in my eyes.
"Because – Because, no other girl would get this chance. We always get crushes on guys we never can have, which doesn't make sense – because, if that's true, why am I with you?" I question him, he seems to think about this for at least 2 minutes before replying,
"Look – maybe you are one in a million that get their chance. Or maybe it's because I am 2 years older than you; it's an impossible answer Lilly, it's just life – what comes our way we should experience and learn from it." He eventually replies, I giggle, which makes him raise his eyebrow.
"That was in Teen Witch!" I reply, starting to laugh as hard as ever as I see his face blush.
"It, it wasn't! Why would I read Teen Witch? I'm a boy!" He quickly replies, making me laugh harder than before! Scorpius is a really bad at lying! Once I calm down, he re-takes my hand and we enter the three broomsticks, to find Rose and Roxanne sitting at a table, staring at us. I wonder if I should take Scorpius over there, but he moves me to a table for two, I mouth sorry to them behind Scorpius back, The order comes and asks us what we want,
"Could I please have pumpkin juice –" Scorpius answers, so I quickly tell the guy "Could I have a butter beer?" He nods and goes off,
"You asked for Beer? Do you even have a fake id? You are only 14!" Scorpius scowls at me, I laugh, I look a lot older than I actually am – and I just love butter beer!
"You're talking! You asked for Pumpkin Juice! Of all things!" I reply just as I start giggling.
"What's wrong with liking Pumpkin Juice?" He asks me seriously, which nearly makes me fall of my chair in laughter! I'm getting stared at, but I don't care – I love being with Scorpius. He makes me laugh all the time, and I'm still laughing now – I can't believe his favourite is actually pumpkin juice, I thought that was a rumor!
End of chapter, sorry it's a bit slow – I made a few bits up like the whole school going at once, it just seemed more reasonable, otherwise Scorpius and Lilly couldn't go together! Anyways, thanks for reading! Constructive feedback is always welcome. Please don't flame. New chapter will be up next week, only if we can get more than 4 reviews! (I will accept to post a new chapter if a person is that desperate that they review four times on the same user.)
Thank you to JoyceeLunaa, NoSparkles, ImmortalAngel92, and Dumbeldore's Beard for reviewing my previous chapters.
