Pre-Author's Note: FUU! I'm tired and I want to go to bed so this is what happened. I thought someone should get drunk and that's what happened. Scorpius is a gentleman, Rose is a little dumb and her friends can be quite persuasive. Kind of. Ah, well. I'm tired.
Birthdays have to be the most chaotic days ever in a room shared with girls. How chaotic the day will be is usually based on who's birthday it is. For example: If it's Annabeth's birthday something crazy usually ends up happening. It's an one hundred percent guarantee. Trust me, I know. I've been in the same room with her for years now. The simplest and calmest person's birthday is mine of course. I don't like going all out, I mean we still are in school. Why is Annabeth's birthday chaotic? Well, lucky for us, today's her birthday.
Reason #1 Annabeth Needs To Not Have A Birthday:
When classes are done... she will find you.
"ROSE WEASLEY!"
That was my cue to try and hide but when I looked around there was no where to go. Merlin, if she gets her hands on me she was going to drag me back to our room and make me have 'fun'. And her description of 'fun' is all type of crazy things. I wouldn't be surprised if she wanted to go hunting for dragons or some other kind of crazy animal. Maybe even unicorns.
"Yes, Annabeth?"
"Don't try to fool me with your innocent little smile Rose. I know you're trying to avoid me," Grabbing my hand she pulled me along with her to where ever she was going. "This year I'm not going to let you miss out on all the fun. You're not going to go to the library, and you're most certainly not going to get Hugo to say he needs help with his homework because I've asked him already and he said no. Now you either go willingly or I can work something else out."
And for a second I actually considered running as an option, since I am pretty fast with all the practice from James, but seriously. I can never, ever, ever, EVER hide from anyone I wanted to. So that option was out. The only other option I had was to go willingly, so I did. I didn't want to find out what 'working something else out' meant.
"In through the door." She said pushing me into our room.
There I was met by the eyes of my other roommates. Lauren seemed pretty happy but Stephanie seemed a little worried and I wondered if maybe she had been brought here by force instead. She was never one to give up on something easily. If she didn't want to go somewhere, she didn't go. If she didn't want to do something, she didn't. Too bad she got Annabeth, who can be quite the persuasive one at times.
Reason #2 Annabeth Needs To Not Have A Birthday:
Presents and persuasiveness.
Annabeth likes to open her presents in front of her friends every time. The bad thing about this is that her parents are excessively wealthy and with the amount of presents she gets from her them, we usually end up watching for a while. Not to mention all the presents she gets from the millions of boys she's been with. And their favorite presents to send her is alcohol or skimpy clothing. The other thing about presents is that we're friends. And what do friends give friends on their birthdays? Nothing.
"So you guys got me nothing, right?"
"Uh, yeah. I'm pretty sure you've gotten every present in the book already." Lauren, yet another roommate, said shrugging her shoulders. Luckily Annabeth had told us not to get her anything after the disaster that happened last year. Let's just say she ended up with a bunch of empty boxes because no one knew what to get. We felt so guilty about getting her nothing that we tried avoiding her for weeks, which is pretty awkward when you sleep in the same room.
"You know what'll be a true present from all of you?"
Everyone just looked at her then at each other in confusion. But I'm not one to be easily fooled. I knew she was planning something because her innocent smile is, in fact, not as innocent as she would like to think it is.
"You can all have fun like me. If I tell you to do something, you do it. It won't be anything stupid. Promise."
"No deal." I said. I was not going to play into her little game.
"Why not? Scared?" She challenged.
"No, I'm not. I just don't want to end up doing some crazy."
She snorted and rolled her eyes while Lauren laughed. "Oh, please, Rose. The only time you ever do something crazy is... Let me see... NEVER! C'mon! So something fun for once. The last time you had fun was when you had a one night stand with Logan. And that was MONTHS ago. Months!"
"YES I DID!"
"What did you do then?"
Damn, I forgot that Malfoy's totally out of discussion with anyone. Even my own cousin doesn't know about any of the things we've done. Not that we've done anything bad or anything. Not that I'd want to either. I freaking hate him and everything he stands for. Well, maybe not. Wait! I'm not going to think about him when I could be doing something dumb, stupid and utterly out of my mind with my friends.
"Fine. Whatever you want."
Covering my ears, I didn't know if she was upset or ecstatic about my decision when she squealed. There was the possibility of her wanting to kill me with her deadly screech or her just wanting to squeal from happiness. Either way, I think I might be deaf now.
Reason #3 Annabeth Needs To Not Have A Birthday:
Firewhiskey.
"No!"
"But you said you would."
"I lied."
Remind me to run, run, run as fast as I can away from Annabeth next year during her birthday. Honestly, I know I agreed to doing whatever she wanted me to but I didn't think that drinking was included in that description. If I knew, I wouldn't have agreed.
"Just do it." Stephanie said rolling onto her back and staring up at the ceiling. I was shocked to hear her say that. She knew my stands on alcohol yet she was telling me to go against that. Although I guess I could blame that on the two glasses she already had. Either she couldn't hold her alcohol at all or she was just getting tired of me and Anna arguing.
"Fine. I'm disappointed in all of you and your freaking peer pressure that I so easily give into."
"Stop changing the subject." Pushing the glass towards me, she gave me a small smile.
Glaring at her I grabbed the glass before downing it as fast as I could so I wouldn't taste it. I've drank firewhiskey before and it tastes just like what it's called. In other words, it tastes just like fire and whiskey. Not the best combination in the world. And when I was done I thought that they would be satisfied but I can't seem to do that either. I'm not good enough for anyone.
"What! I drank the freaking whole glass, aren't you satisfied yet?" I asked irritated.
Then what really took me by surprise was when Annabeth rolled me a whole bottle. And I most definitely did not plan to get alcohol poisoning in school nor in my entire life.
Rolling the bottle back to her I stared. "You don't expect me to drink that, do you?"
"Oh, c'mon. Please."
"No."
"Half. I'll love you forever if you do."
"You love everyone." I said but took the bottle back anyway. I hate how some people can get me to do things so fast with just about two sentences. It was stressful. Though I would never really do anything too stupid. I don't think.
Reason #4 Annabeth Needs To Not Have A Birthday:
I'm pretty sure there would be a reason to fit here but what happened after I drank half that bottle is a mystery. I have a low tolerance for alcohol.
What Happened:
After hours of drinking, halfhearted confessions, presents, dares and stories Rose decided to disappear for a while. She said something about wanting to go to the library and the others let her even though it was a little after hours. They didn't know. They weren't even paying attention to any of the things that were being said, nor what they were saying since nothing made sense at all.
"Ow!" Rose said when she tumbled down the stairs. It wasn't helping that the world was spinning either.
"Are you okay, Rose?" Hugo asked, turning around to look at her. He always seemed to be there in the worst of times. "You seem a little strange."
"Sshh." She whispered before walking over to him and holding him. "Hush little Yugo don't you cry. Rose is going to love you until you die." Patting his head she hugged him tightly as she sang, not caring if she was smothering him even the slightest bit.
"You're choking me and my name is Hugo! Stop petting me!"
Letting go of him Rose stood up and almost fell again but Hugo grabbed her before she could walk off.
"Where are you going?"
"Out. Don't worry, Jose. I'll be back."
"You shouldn't be going anywhere except to bed." He let her go though.
"Why would someone go to bread? I don't get it. I'm not even hungry."
"Are you drunk? I'm so going to tell mum and dad. You're going to be in so much trouble. I can't wait until tomorrow I'm going to annoy the hell out of you and make so much noise. Serves you right for drinking. Where did you even-" Stopping Hugo looked around the common room. She was no where in sight so he just went back to reading. She would get her own self in trouble.
)*(
Half an hour later Rose found herself walking in a circle. That's what happens when you have no idea where you're going in the first place. She had told her friends that she was going to the library but that was a lie. Stopping in the middle of the hall she began to think about how to get back to the common room so she could finally go to sleep. If she could even remember what room and bed was hers. Merlin, she was what you called 'a dumb drunk'. Who would have known?
"Lost, Weasley?"
It was joke but little did Scorpius know, Rose was actually lost. When she didn't answer he wondered if she was just ignoring him or if she had heard him at all.
"Hello!" He said pulling on her hair.
"What?" Rose asked before moving away from him. She knew that she knew him but she had totally forgotten his name. It was something with a S or maybe an A. Does it even matter? The true problem for her is that she forgot why she was even down here. By the time she figured it out it would probably be morning.
"Are you lost?"
"No I don't have a dog. Where did you even get that idea from?"
"I said lost. L-O-S-T."
"Oh, okay." She said slowly. Why was he telling her that he was lost? I mean she was lost too but why was he telling her? She couldn't help him. Heck, she could barely even find her own way around the school. And now she was going to be sick. Some how this was all Annabeth's fault. Or was her name even Annabeth? Who was Annabeth? She was a friend right?
Scorpius had no idea what was wrong with her. Except for the fact that she might have gone a bit deaf in the last few hours. She looked a bit sick too. And why was she even out at this time? Then again, she might be meeting up with someone. Although, she seemed to be a little out of her mind at the moment. Lost, sick and completely loony.
"Are you drunk?" He asked since it seemed like the only sensible reason for her behavior.
"Pssh. No. No. No. No I'm not. Wait. Could you repeat the question?"
"And who persuaded you to drink?"
"What are you talking about? I have not been drinking anything in the past few hours. No one per-per-per, whatever the word is, to drink. And no I'm not L-S-O-T. So yeah. Now you know." Rolling her eyes, Rose began walking, to where? She didn't know. Possibilities are she'll end up right back here.
Laughing Scorpius grabbed her by the shirt and spun her around. Who knows how long she's been out here? She's annoying, smart and a bunch of other stuff he can't think of right now but he wouldn't let her keep roaming around lost. Or as she called it 'L-S-O-T'. She was really out of it right now. Oh, well. It's be something to tease her about later.
"Where are you going?"
"Could you let go of my shirt?"
"Oh, sorry."
"You're welcome."
"But I didn't say-"
Pressing a finger to his lips, Rose shushed him. She didn't care what she had said. Nor did she hear what she said. For some reason she thought that maybe she should hate this person but she honestly couldn't remember half the stuff she was supposed to.
"Sshh. We're going to get married one day."
"What are you talking about?" Yup, she has completely lost her mind.
"I'm an only child so it doesn't really matter."
"You have a brother."
"Sshhh. It's okay, Samuel. We love you." Throwing her arms around him. she rubbed his back before he could push her away.
"Scorpius. Scorpius Malfoy. Not Samuel. And who exactly is 'we'? What does being an only child have to do with anything in marriage? Plus, you have a brother named Hugo. If you can remember that. Your name is Rose Weasley, too. You're a Gryffindor and you need to go to sleep before you end up getting hurt or doing something really stupid. Never mind. It's too late for that."
"You talk a lot. I love you."
Sighing he grabbed her hand to lead her back to the Gryffindor tower. He could hear her rambling on and on about something he couldn't quite make out but he didn't really care at the moment. Then he was either getting really tired or Rose was getting really fat because she started getting heavier to pull. When he turned around she sitting on the floor.
"Get up!"
"Too tired."
"So?"
"What does me being tired have to do with snow?"
"And I thought you were a handful when you had sense."
"Cents? Isn't that muggle money? I don't have any of that."
Reaching down he grabbed her hand and helped her up. One way or another she was going back to where she belonged. Even if he had to carry her, which he was willingly to do. Well as long as she wasn't too heavy. Merlin he had to stop roaming around so late. He'd hate to meet another drunk Rose again. He hoped she'd learn her lesson after this. If she could even remember half the stuff that happened, which he doubted.
"Come on. I don't have all day."
"Is 'All Day' a holiday or is that like a book or something? I'm too tired to walk."
"Well... I can carry you then."
Before he could even say that it was just a suggestion he felt the heaviness of Rose on his back. Rose almost fell at first but she hung on for her life. She didn't even care that she was choking Scorpius because she was so scared that she would fall. It seemed pretty far up for her.
"You're choking me!"
"GIDDY UP! Go, go, go, go, go! You're slow." She chanted before burying her face into his neck.
"You're tiresome. And you better not bite me again."
"Sshh. I'm not two people so I am not a threesome. I'm not going to eat you. I don't eat people. Do you?"
"I think you should be quiet for a while."
For the next few minutes Rose continued bothering and half-choking Scorpius to death until he finally put her down. She wasn't even tired anymore by the time that time and she didn't even want to go to sleep. How was she supposed to get back inside anyway? She didn't remember the password. Seeing him about to leave she grabbed hold on his sleeve.
"What do you want now?" He asked annoyed.
"I forgot the password."
Turning her around he pushed her forward. "I don't know it either but there goes your brother. He must be looking for you. Ask him about it. His name is Hugo by the way. Nothing else."
"Okay. Bye-bye Samson."
"Night, Rose."
Author's Note: Don't ask because I most definitely do not know. Although, Drunk!Rose is Funny!Rose. At least, that's what I thought. Whatever. Fred2xOC oneshot in progress. Might be a little depressing. I don't know. Enjoy and review. Half this chapter is in pieces but hey, it's longer than most.
