A/N. Not betaed.

Chapter 4 Found.

Rose and Scorpius established an understanding into working together. On the third day they evaluated their previous findings and concluded that the potion was coming along nicely. Successfully avoiding working together, interaction being minimal,as both wished it should be, awkwardness skilfully ignored.

Scorpius felt his strength gaining once again, Rose felt less gloomily. This was the preferred situation for the both of them. Rose felt her blissfulness return to its former state, her academics flourishing as ever before.

On the twenty second day the potion was ready for its next step adding the fluxweed.

Scorpius gave Rose the honour in doing so. They chose to start at eight o' clock in the morning so the next step would be twelve hours later.

Rose added the fluxweed and the potion turned the right colour. She became so excited she hugged Scorpius. She wrapped her arms around his neck and put her head against his broad shoulders.

Scorpius tensed up. But hugged her back. "Second step successful" he murmured softly in Roses ear". She smelled so nice. He wished things would be different between them. He didnt know why he had these thoughts about her, she was a bloody Gryffindo for fucks sake, a danger to his strength.

Rose pulled her head back so she was able to look him in his eyes. The hug had felt so right.

His mercury liquid orbs stared into her green emeralds. His breathing increased as his heart beat sped up.

Rose swallowed, staring back at the blond in front of her. Her heart rate increasing, electricity flowing between her chest and his. Keeping her hands around his neck.

Tension became palpable.

Scorpius bent his head and pressed his lips delicately against Roses. He kept his eyes fixed on hers. They looked at her pleadingly. She sighed, leaning into his kiss. Her eyes fluttered close for a moment as she took in the moment.

He opened his mouth and softly nipped her lower lip. Pulling it gently between his lips, stroking it gently with his tongue. He released her lower lip and proceeded with her upper lip. Nipping at it and stroking it with his tongue. He alternated his movements and pulled Rose closer.

Rose moaned into his mouth as he pulled her closer. She clearly enjoyed this.

He kissed her more fiercely, his tongue swirling between her lips asking for entrance, Rose parted her lips and she granted him entry.

Scorpius gently swirled his tongue against hers. Rose closed her eyes and pulled Scorpius even closer.

Their kiss became deeper and the couple totally immersed themselves in each other.

They both felt the attraction towards each other. It became increasingly hard to resist, for the both of them. Rose felt she was threading darker grounds but was unable to stop her self. Her mind said no, her heart told her otherwise.

Scorpius knew he had to resist this enchanting witch, it was better for both of them, he was putting her in harms way, but his heart told him she was the one: The one who could mend him.

Scorpius started to stroke Roses back until he reached her lower back and bum. Rose startled and let go of Scorpius.

Scorpius ruffled his hair and apologised profusely.

Rose blushed deeply, smiling at him demurely.

"Uhm, happy the potion is coming along" she stated.

"Ah, right yes, well let's get going we need to get to our classes.

Scorpius touched Roses hair as she left the lab. He loved her curls.

He went to his ancient runes class, taking his seat in the back of the room. Picked up his books and took his quill. His thoughts drifted to this magnificent red head. She was clever, beautiful and very kind hearted. Her hands and fingers soft to the touch. They way they could roam his chest, breath taking. He was so far away, he didn't catch the assignment for the day. Translating runes the professor wrote on the black board, they needed to translate it and explain the prophecy behind it.

Nott poked Scorpius and hissed; " Oi, Scorpius let' s get working.

" Erm, right", Scorpius reluctantly replied.

"So what's up?" Nott enquired.

" What do you mean, what's up?"

"Well you seem pre occupied!"

"Oh, yeah, the potion just went into its next stage!" Scorpius gladly offered. "How is yours coming along, by the way?"

"Uhm, yeah fine!" But are you sure you're talking about your potion, and not a certain Weasel?!"

Scorpius clenched his fists, gritting his teeth, but didn't go for the bait. Nott always liked to challenge him. He wanted to take reign over the Slytherin clan. But Scorpius was too strong, but Nott never relented.

Scorpius needed to watch his back.

After class it was Rose turn to watch the potion. The colour remained the same indicating that all went well.

During diner Scorpius contemplated what Nott said and yes his head was filled with thoughts about the pretty redhead. He smiled inwardly he had to keep a straight face, his fellow Slytherins were always keeping an eye out for weakness. They were always in for the kill.

Before he went to the lab he checked his tattoo in the mirror he was in for a major shock! His scorpion had decreased in size.

"Oh what, do you think about that"! Nott smugly noted," the Scorpion is welting!" " How did that happen?!" " Oh no, let me guess a Weasel happened!" " Better get a Weasel on your arm!" " Woooh, hahaha, hilarious"!

Scorpius started fuming as he pulled his shirtsleeve down, storming out of the Slytherin dorm. He should have never trusted Nott about his tattoo. He could have guessed it would backfire someday. But he had been so young and he had to forge an alliance with the other Slytherins.

He made his way to the lab and saw Rose waiting happily by their cauldrons.

" Would you do the honours for the next ingredient?" she offered.

He took the leeches, slipping them in the cauldrons, they waited for the colour to change and when it did. Rose cheerily clapped her hands.

But when she got a good look , Scorpius face angry, she paled immediately.

She noticed his dishevelled hair and saw his shirt. His chiselled chest showed. It was quiet unusual for Scorpius to be in this state of undressness.

" Are you in pain, Scorpius?" She softly asked. His body language gave of this eerie hardness, she was afraid to come closer.

Scorpius anger got the better of him as he turned on his heel and angrily stated " It is all your fault, you weaken me"! Before he fled the door.

Rose felt tears well up, she slowly sat back in her chair.

She felt so elated before. Her heart wrenched and she openly cried. She had just begun to lose her heart to Scorpius. She couldn't help him if he didn't let her.

Scorpius ran outside, he headed for the forest. He found a tree on the outskirts and slumped down.

Rose returned to her dorm, trying to compose her demeanour. She stepped into the Ravenclaw common room, it was fairly quiet, some students sat there talking, some of them busy with their homework. Rose went to her bedroom quietly, trying not to attract attention from her fellow housemates, entering her empty bed room staring at her favourite place in the castle; the window sill. She liked spending time sitting there, she could watch the scenery outside, read or just stare without purpose.

As she stared out silver blond hair stood out in the moonlight as she watched the forest.

A voice in the back of her mind motioned her to go there and confront the boy. It wasn't right how he treated, her, kissing her like that than switching like she was some kind of plague infested creature.

She made her way out of the castle and ran towards the forest.

As she reached Scorpius she saw a different boy, he was crying it made her gut wrench seeing him like this, she kneeled beside him. She touched his wet face, reaching down, desperately wanting to kiss him. But as she tried, he gave her a look that made her stomach turn, these eyes weren't the warm eyes she knew, instead these cold grey orbs pierced her emeralds. His eyes left hers as he stood up and walked away in to the forest. Rose could not let him go like this and followed him. She reached for his arm.

Something stirred inside Scorpius, Rose just touched his tattoo, he grabbed Rose, cupped her face and feverishly kissed her, he invaded her mouth and his tongue grabbed hers as he roughly kissed her. He pushed her against a tree, pinning her tightly against the bark.

His hand tangled in her hair, pressing her head even firmer into his.

His inside demanded to take her right here against the tree.

Rose froze, his kiss felt to angry, his hands on her hips, clawing in her flesh, it became to feral. She tried to push Scorpius away, he didn't back off, if anything his kiss became more demanding, his hand went behind her back, at a certain point Rose thought he would take her, but something snapped inside him, he pulled away.

"Oh, guck, sorry Rose, I didn't meant to harm you, please forgive me!" He turned around he felt ashamed, she al ready confessed a to never having a boyfriend before, she must be scared beyond her wits. Damn his inner voice, taking over when he least needed it.

Rose pulled her self together, a voice told her to comfort him even when he had just tried to force himself upon her, touching her inappropriately, she turned around Scorpius and held him. She started to rock him gently in her arms. She knew it wasn't him that attacked her.

Scorpius needed her too much. She couldn't leave him like this.

She held him until he calmed down.

He tried to look at Rose but was afraid of what he would see in her eyes. "Please help me" he whispered.

Rose gently kissed his hair and trailed her lips until she found his mouth. She gently nipped his lower lip and dipped her tongue between his lips. She found his tongue and caressed his with hers. She could taste his tears. They tasted salty.

She deepened their kiss. His emotion touched her heart and it sprung up as she felt joy in Scorpius soul.

She stopped kissing, resting her forehead against his catching her breath.

Scorpius looked down and caught her eyes.

"I'm so sorry, help me please stop this madness!?" Rose nodded.

He pulled Rose by her collar and pressed a soft kiss on her lips.

Before they headed back Scorpius cast a disillusionment charm. If Rose could have seen him from the castle, anyone could see them emerge from the forest. "It would be best if we kept 'us' a secret for now!" Scorpius suggested.

" Ooh since when are we an us" Rose teased.

"Since you agreed to help me" Scorpius gruffed.

"I like it! Being an us!"

" What about the hassle!" Scorpius said.

They became quiet as they neared the castle. It was well past curfew as they entered.

Scorpius escorted Rose to the Ravenclaw tower and gave her a small peck on her cheek. "See in you in the lab half past seven!"

Rose looked surprised about the time.

"You, know, we can get a half an hour extra to spend together" He tilted her head up to him, brushing his lips over hers.

Rose touched the Ravenclaw door knocker and the eagle came alive stating the entrance riddle: "They are two sisters. One gives birth to the other, who in turn gives birth to the first. What are the two sisters?" " Day and night," Rose declares.

" Oh, that is how its done, I heard rumours, but never knew it worked this way!"

Rose blew him a kiss and headed inside.

Scorpius entered the Slyherin common room, taking two steps down to his bedroom.

Nott, Parkinson and Zabini were all ready fast asleep. Scorpius was glad he didn't have the energy in thinking of an excuse right now.

The next morning he lead his fellow Slyhterins to the breakfast table and started to eat quickly, he excused himself and headed for the lab.

He headed inside and saw Rose standing there with her back towards the door. She was this epiphany of what beauty should be.

He rushed forward and snaked his arm around her waist and pushed her curls aside an nuzzled her neck. She let out a small gasp and turned her head so she could kiss him. He smirked against her lips. He wanted her kisses so badly it hurt.

Their lips locked and their tongues started to explore their mouths.

Scorpius felt something stir inside his trousers. He couldn't help his body, he reacted so heavily to her pressence. He felt embarrassed about it pushing Rose gently forward!"

" Uhm sorry about that!" He repented.

" I have a confession to make!" So maybe were even after that". Rose declared.

"When I nursed you at the medical wing I noticed your tattoos, I never saw anything like them, I went into the restricted section of the library and looked them up."

"And did you find anything?" Scorpius looked puzzled about this.

" Uhm well, I found something about a curse and Malfoy legacy." " Erm, and..." Rose blushed profusely. "Uhm, well I have some special abilities as you are well aware of" They allow me to enter someone's mind, I kind of went into yours."

"Mmmm". Scorpius mused; "I guessed as much all ready."

"Oh, you did" Rose blushed some more.

" Well, I can look up some more about this sort of dark magic in the restricted section! I'm quite good at finding information. But I have a shift coming up at the medical wing this weekend so, I can start Sunday Evening."

Scorpius was delighted he had found this incredible smart witch. And she was his, he felt so lucky.

"But now we need to ad the two black beetle eyes." Maybe we should crush them with the mortar and pestle." We can ad them first to the first cauldron and watch what colour it changes into before we ad it to the second one!" Rose suggested.

Scorpius agreed an they tried it. The potion turned the right colour and they proceeded with the second one.

Rose turned to face Scorpius and kissed him again. "See you tonight!" She whispered into his lips.

She walked away and went out of the lab. She liked this kissing stuff, she mused to herself a smile forming on her lips as she touched them, he lingered on them, she closed her eyes, she could even smell him on her robes. It was a good thing.

Scorpius groaned, he wanted her so badly it ached. He never had so much patience with a girl before. But she was worth the wait he comforted himself.

So the middle part has kept me busy, it was more explicit, but I couldnt mary the third part in this chapter so I changed it back and forth. This is still rated M so more heavy stuff is coming up, more angst adult themes and a shocking end. I started writing this year and a half ago, my iPad crashed about a year ago, leaving me with a couple of chapters, which are a bit more crude as I hope my writing has picked up and Dwveloped, so in a few chapters my style will change a bit. I transeferred to pages and iCloud so no more surprises at that end.

Thankx for favouriting, following and reviewing, the latter highly apreciated and will be mentioned in my next chapter.
