Albus & Scorpius. Rose.


He has brought him a rose, and Albus can't tell if he's being serious or if he's just dicking around with him.

Because this feels like the sort of ironic thing Scorpius could do as a joke, but at the same time…

Either way, it still makes Albus miffed.

So when Scorpius looks at him with suddenly confused eyes, Albus slaps the hand away that is searching for his, because he still can't tell whether it is a stupid joke or not.

The next day, Rose is sitting in Scorpius' lap, and Albus wonders if he screwed everything up now.
