"I'll see you tonight, okay?" Rose asked him, still peering into her handbag.
"Sure," Scorpius agreed readily.
"Bye." Without another look at him, or even waiting for his reply she disapparated.
Sighing deeply, he stared at the spot where she had disappeared. This was how things had been between them for the past couple of weeks. She would come to his place at night, they would sleep together, and then she would leave in the morning. They had hardly known each other when they had been fellow class-mates, at Hogwarts. Infact, if it hadn't been for the party at the ministry; things would have remained the same between them. And he would have never found out that was attracted to her.
Oh yes, he was attracted to Rose Weasley and in turn she was attracted to him, Scorpius Malfoy. He was sure her father would flip if he came to know what his daughter was doing or rather who she was doing. But then, he knew that Ronald Weasley wouldn't be enlightened about their situation; it wasn't like they were flaunting their relationship. No, the word relationship was all wrong. What they had was nothing close to a relationship!
They weren't in love.
They weren't dating.
They didn't have feelings for each other.
They didn't have any sort of commitment toward each other.
There weren't even friends!
Instead, they were just two consenting adults, who were attracted to each other...physically only. Yeah, he thought of her as an incredibly sexy woman and she was damn good in bed! Obviously, she found him the same too, or else she wouldn't have bothered to return after the first night. Now, she was quite regular…almost every night.
Before, never had he felt the need to go back. But with Rose Weasley, he didn't complain.
But lately, he had started feeling different; he had started noticing things he knew he shouldn't notice. Like how blue and bright her eyes were, how soft her hair was, how cute she sounded when she mumbled in her sleep, and of course how beautiful she looked at all times. She didn't put much effort into her looks when she was around him and still he was in awe of her. Hell, he had even held her this morning! They weren't the cuddly sort of couples; but this morning he had actually pulled her close to him, and laid his cheek on her temple. She had sighed, as if she liked it…but he wasn't sure, she had been asleep after all.
He sighed again; Rose Weasley had made it perfectly clear what she exactly wanted. And he starting to appreciate her otherwise was definitely not on her list.
That night, after Rose fell asleep beside him, he lay awake watching her. He felt a pang in his heart when he realized that she would be leaving again that morning, and there was nothing that attached them emotionally. And he wanted that something.
He wanted her to stay with him.
He wanted to be in a relationship with her.
He wanted to really love her.
And he wanted her to say yes.
A/N: Rose/Scorpius pairing is my OTP, so I enjoy writing absolutely anything and everything about them! And this particular drabble was quite interesting to write. I wanted it to fit the prompts of both the challenge/competition, guess it worked?
Let me know what you thought of it! *hoping you liked it*
Review? Pwetty please? *pout*
