Chapter Two: ONE AND THE SAME

He was at the tallest tower in Hogwarts the Astronomy Tower. It really was beautiful and silent up here, with the stars shining up above him. He never really liked astronomy, but the way the stars glistened in the sky made him feel relaxed. That was probably why he liked coming here every night. He tried not to think about the horrible thing that happened here many years passed. He tried not to think about how his own father came up here to do that dark deed, but he was not his father nor was he like his grandfathers before him, but how was it on the outside he seemed just one and the same. He took something out of his pocket and looked at long and hard. It was the one thing that reminded him that he could be different from this father, but no matter how easy it was to think about to become the good Slytherin he knew it would never happen. He was in this 7th year already it seemed that he would always be the bad boy of Slytherin. As tears were slowly coming down his cheek and he knew this was the only place he could be himself. Out here he was way from the anger and the hatred that has plagued his family. So there he was Scorpius Malfoy, plagued by his father's past and although he never wanted to be just like him somehow he had. He lived up to everyone's expectations; that he and his father were just one and the same.

As he was about to leave he heard a noise. Someone was coming up to the tower which was out of the ordinary because nobody other than him came hereafter hours. He knew that he was going to be in trouble if it was a professor, but who would care? It was expected of him to cause trouble right? As he wiped the tears from his eyes and turned around he found a person he had never expected to see.
