What If?

Prompt6: Indifference

Sitting alone on the top of the Astronomy tower, Rose hugged herself. The cold wind glazed her tear streaked cheeks, and she hugged herself in an attempt to feel whole. She couldn't believe why she was reacting like this. He was just her friend. And nothing more than that! Then why did seeing him shove his tongue down Meredith Macdonald's throat affect her so much?!

Why did she stalk out of the common room with tears streaming down her face?

Why did she want to hex Macdonald to oblivation?

Why did she want to tell Scorpius off and make sure he was only with her?

She realized that she had been fooling herself the whole time. Scorpius wasn't just her friend…what she felt for him was certainly not friendly. He was something more to her. A lot more…
