Rose POV:
I was in an alley, it looked familiar. I was quickly making my way down the alley when I was blocked by a person, it was really dark ad I couldn't make out the features of the person. But the person was definitely a male, he was tall with broad shoulders and he was completely blocking my path. I started to push my way past him, I almost crossed him when he reached out for my hand and twirled me into his arms. And then his scent hit me, the perfect mixture of cinnamon and freshly mowed grass. Yeah, I know, freshly mowed grass smells good? You all must think that I am crazy, but freshly mowed grass was one of my favourite smells in the world, the others including, the smell of the first rain, dark chocolate and lilies.
His smell filled up my senses. I fit perfectly in his arms; it was like as if I was made to fit into his arms. Just then a flicker of light of a passing muggle car hit the alley and I could make out the stranger's hair. Platinum blond. Oh. Shit. Scorpius Malfoy. I just thought that I was made to fit into Malfoy's arms, ugh. I made to pull away but his arms, twice in the past few days, tightened around me, once again.
"Don't fight it Weasley, I know you love me" he said in that deep, husky voice of his.
Damn him.
I struggled against him.
"Weasley come on, accept it. Accept it, so that I can kiss you and rock your world"
Holy Merlin. If he kept talking like this I wouldn't last another second.
I was just about to lean into him when I heard a loud pounding noise and I woke up with a start, panting heavily.
What. The. Fuck. Just. Happened?
It took me a minute to regain my senses and then I realised that the pounding noise was my mother at my room door.
"Rose, you better get up this instant young lady or I am going to break this door down and shove you out of your bed, don't think that I wouldn't do it" she threatened.
"Mom, give me five minutes" I yelled back.
"Rose Weasley. Up. NOW. Do you even realise what time it is? It's 10.15 and you need to still pack up the rest of your things and take shower AND eat breakfast." She screamed.
"Okay mother, okay. I am up and I'll be down in the kitchen in ten" I sighed.
I heard her storm through the house to my bother's room, yelling for him to wake up all the way.
That. Woman.
I quickly got up, thought all the remaining stuff haphazardly into my trunk, quickly pulled out a pair of tight fitting denims and a dark blue tank top and bolted to the washroom.
I was in the shower when I remembered the dream again. Holy fuck. What am I going to do? I am supposed to hate Malfoy, instead of doing that I am having dreams about him? How pathetic. I don't know how I am going to face Malfoy after that dream.
I have to stay away from him at all times. I have to make sure that whenever we are together a couple of people are always with us. Jen and Alex would be willing to help me with that. I turned the shower off, threw on my clothes and rushed to the mirror. I had dark circles around my eyes, I needed some foundation, terribly. I hated make up and I avoided it whenever I could. I was like my Aunt Ginny that way, Al's mom. She loathed any kind of make up. It always exasperated my mother. Grammy, Aunt Fleur and my mom had to petrify Aunt Gin and apply make up on her face, the day of her wedding. She was outraged apparently. I laughed all the time, whenever I heard that story.
I quickly put rubbed in some foundation and was reaching for the eyeliner stick when I heard my father yelling for me.
"ROSE! Get yourself down here. Now. It's quarter to eleven already and you still haven't eaten, your mother's going to have my arse, if you don't eat" he yelled.
"Ronald! Refrain from using obscene language will you? Wr have kids in the house" my mother immediately chastised.
"Kids my arse, they are a lot of bloody tyrants" I heard my dad mutter.
I grinned; I could imagine my mom whacking my dad upside the head, just about now. They were so adorable.
"I am coming dad" I yelled.
I put on some eyeliner, a little gloss, shoved my wand into my pocket and tied my hair up into a knot.
I looked around my room just to make sure that I hadn't left anything and sighed. I am going to miss this place. I hope Christmas comes fast. I levitated my trunk and walked out the room, shutting the door behind me. I was walking down the corridor when I saw my brother pushing and shoving his trunk down the corridor, I my trunk floated past his head and I almost made it hit his head, he got startled and almost fell down the stairs, he hadnt' seen me come out of my room. I laughed at him until my stomach hurt.
"Very funny, Rose" he glared.
"If you're done laughing your arse off, will you please help me with this god damned thing?" He huffed.
"Hugo Weasley, watch that mouth of yours, don't make me scrub it clean with soap" my mom yelled.
That woman heard everything.
"Okay mom" Hugo sighed.
"Rose come on, help me with this. I asked Dad but he asked me to be man and do my things myself" he rolled his eyes.
I laughed. "Where's the magic word Hu?" I grinned.
He glared at me. "Help me Rose, please" he said.
"There. Good boy." I said messing his hair up.
"The hair! The hair! Don't touch the hair, Rose!" He squealed.
"Sorry, baby brother" I winked, while levitating he trunk up along side mine. Sigh, the perks of being of age and having an underage brother.
We ran down the stairs and Dad shoved croissants into our hands and the four of us apparated, Hugo side along apparating with my Dad.
Dad wanted to drive because he had gotten his driver's license recently. But he sucked at driving, the last time we went out and he was driving he almost rammed into a tree and he claimed that the tree had come out of nowhere. I swear he confounded the examiner and got a license. We avoided cars like the plague whenever my dad was behind the wheel, since then.
We apparated right outside King's Cross and shoved our way through the crowds of people. We walked through the pillar and looked around for my Uncle and his family.
Wr found everyone between the hoards of people and we made our way to them.
"Ah. Late again Ron, Hermione?" Asked Uncle George, grinning.
"Blame these two. They never get up on time" said my mother, glaring at Hu and me.
Everyone laughed, this was how it was every year, we'd make it just in the nick of time.
"Rose"
I whirled around at the sound of my name and looked straight into my Godfather's startling green eyes. I grinned and ran into his arms. He had been away, majority of the summer on some mission or the other and I had last seen him almost a month back.
"Uncle Harry!" I squealed like give year old girl.
Harry laughed," I missed you, you little minx. How much did you annoy your mother this summer?"
"Not at all Uncle Harry, I was an angel throughout the summer" I winked.
"Sure love, whatever you say" he grinned.
"Uncle Harry! I made Head Girl, I completely forgot to tell you about it" I yelled, showing him my badge.
"Wow Rose, congratulations sweetheart! But I am not really tht surprised, you've been the first in your class every year" he said.
"Not every year Harry, I beat her in our second and fourth year" grinned Malfoy, walking towards my family.
"My bad, Scorpius! How have you been son?" Asked Uncle Harry, patting Malfoy on his back.
"Good Sir, I hope you've been good too?"
Ever the gentleman I thought, rolling my eyes.
Uncle Harry was just about to answer when Draco, Astoria and Alira Malfoy walked over too. That girl was gorgeous; half the boys in school were drooling for her.
She came over and hugged me an so did Astoria. Astoria was the sweetest person, I don't know how she had a son like Malfoy. My mom and Astoria were very close; they worked in the same department and were both mangling directors of that department. Their work basically focused on Wizarding Law and the both of them adored their work and the company of each other. Astoria then hugged my mom and they immediately started rattling off to each other, Draco shook Harry's and Uncle George's hands and nodded his head at my dad. They didn't really get along and I don't think they even want to. Draco and Harry started talking about something the Minister had said the other day, Draco was one of the best healers in St. Mungos. He was a polite man with a very sarcastic sense of humour; I enjoyed his company, to be honest. It's only Ferret Junior who I didn't like in the Malfoy family, his sister was a sweetheart too.
It was then time to go and mom, Aunt Ginny and Astoria started crying about how it was their little baby's final year in school and how we were growing up way too fast. Harry, Dad and Draco just stood there, awkwardly patting their wives, consolingly while looking wearily at each other. It was a sight to behold.
Everyone hugged goodbye and we then boarded the train and in no time were on our way to Hogwarts. I met Alex and Jenny in the train and we hugged as if it had been a decade since we had seen each other, they greeted Al,Malfoy and Al's girlfriend Jessica, she was a total bimbo, just big, fake boobs and a hot body.
All of us went to get a compartment for ourselves but I decided that I couldn't stand Malfoy anymore and went to find the Head's compartment on the pretence of finding brother who I had to give something to.
I found the Head's compartment which was empty, thankfully. This compartment was the after-summer-snog-session venue. So I was thankful that today there was nobody in the compartment.
I took out my favourite book, Pride and Prejudice, I loved it, it made me happy, sad and other whirlwind of emotions that I couldn't possibly explain no matter how hard I try; I then snuggled against the window and started to read. I was in bliss for a while when suddenly my reading was interrupted when the compartment door slid shut with a bang. I looked up startled and do the very bane of my existence.
"Well, it isn't the oh so pretty Rose Weasley, where did you suddenly disappear off too?" He smirked, leaning against the door looking sexy as ever, with his hair calling into his stormy grey eyes. Wait, did I just think of him as sexy? I take it back. I DON'T think that Malfoy is sexy. I don't.
I swallowed the lump that had unknowingly formed in my throat and turned to look up at him.
"Just couldn't stand to be in your presence any longer Malfoy" I said.
Thankfully, before this thing turned into a full blown fight, all the prefects entered the compartment. Right, I forgot. The very first prefect's meeting. They quickly settled down and turned towards Malfoy and me.
"Hello you lot, I know it's shocking for you that Weaslette made Head Girl, I was appalled too, Hogwarts has reduced its standards while concerning the Head Girl a lot" said Malfoy, smirking at me.
"Shut it Malfoy, if a git like you can make Head Boy any body with a pea sized brain can succeed at being Head Boy" I snarled.
Jesus, here we go again, thought all the prefects. They were all used to this, this was exactly how it had been when Scorpius and Rose were prefects. They dreaded this year, all of them.
"Guys, can you two just shut the hell up and get this meeting over with" sighed Alex, one of the seventh year prefects.
Scorpius and Rose both glared at him and started the meeting.
Hello you lot!
