Prompt9 Into the fire:

"I love you…I love being with you,but I love my wife too. I can't hurt her. I'm sorry."

Those were the exact words that Scorpius had spoken to her while ending their arrangement.

While Scorpius's tone and expression had been compassionate and sorry, Rose's held no emotion. It was almost as if she had known this was coming; he had been so distant and withdrawn from past few weeks.

"Are you sure?" she had asked him coldly.

"Audrey is pregnant. We are having a baby." Though he had tried to be subdued, his eyes glowed with the obvious happiness.

She couldn't help but feel jealous.

Immensely.

"I'm sorry Rose. I didn't want to hurt you."

She gulped down rest of her alcohol and searched her purse for a medium sized envelope. Opening it, she went through its contents…a slow, bitter smile spreading on her face. Throwing loose change at the bar counter, she walked out and headed back to the ministry.

Feeling confident, she walked into the Daily Prophet's office. A young man, close to her age was seated at the reception.

"May I help you, Miss. Weasley?" he asked nervously.

"I'm here to see Donna," she told him with a hint of flirtatiousness.

"Uh…she's busy," he stuttered.

"Come on Ray, I'm sure you can giveme some time in.Itwon't take long, I promise."

He just nodded and left the counter; and entered a room with the name plate Donna Marquay~Chief Editor, Rose's smile disappeared as soon as he left and the previous cold calculating look took its place at once.

"Alright, she'll see you now," Ray said as he came out.

"Thanks! I owe you one," she winked and walked into Donna's office.

Donna was seated surrounded by a stack of sheets, "This better be important Rose," she muttered without looking up.

"Oh it is," Rose said quietly.

This isn't right…a small voice in her head contradicted.

He shouldn't have left me…he has to pay for that, another voice disagreed.

Still…you know it would have happened anyway! He was married! Of course he wouldn't have chosen you…you knew it all along.

Shut up! You don't get any-

"Well? Are you going to stand there looking demented throughout or get to the point?" Donna's voice broke her dilemma.

"Uh,yeah,I have got something for you to print," she mumbled, and handed Donna the envelope.

Donna took the envelope from her without another word, her eye brows raised as soon as she saw the contents.

"You want me to print this?" she questioned, stupefied.

"Yeah," Rose nodded briskly.

"You know what this will mean?" Donna continued.

"I do. Do it," Rose shrugged.

"Rose, this will certainly be the headline, but-"

"Will you print it or not? Or else I'm sure Witch Weekly will oblige," Rose snapped.

"Fine! If you're sure…wow…"

"I know," Rose sighed.

"You know that I do have to ask you a few questions, don't you?" Donna asked, already professional.

"I'm ready," Rose said and sat down on the chair in front of her.

The next morning, Rose woke up with a hangover. Recalling what happened the previous night, she rushed over to her kitchen; as usual a copy of Daily Prophet and its companion paper had been left at the counter.

With trembling hands, she unfolded the paper.

It had been printed of course.

The headlines were flashing at her.

SCANDALOUS REVEALATION: Malfoy-Weasley 'Love' AFFAIR!

"Scorpius Malfoy (28) well known international Quidditch player, married to Audrey Malfoy nee Quinn (26) has been found to be cheating on his wife with none other but his supposed best friend Rose Weasley (28). This information was brought to Daily Prophet's notice by a very reliable source. The Malfoy-Weasley affair had been going since past two years, we suspect it started just weeks after the wedding to go with the timeline. This will certainly be a shocker for Mrs. Malfoy. It is also known that the Malfoys' are expecting their first child. What with the news of Scorpius's cheating scandal out in open, it is unknown what turn his marriage will take. Most would probably know how it would, but with the baby's inclusion…we are all awaiting for the news.

And below that were their pictures, their private moments.

He shouldn't have left her;he shouldn't have.

Oh well, she had gotten her revenge.
