AN-Thanks for the lovely reviews! I've been sick lately-update coming on Saturday or Sunday.

Warning-Slightly Violence, Language..The Chapter name isn't legit.

Unfortunately, over the next few weeks, Malfoy's methods hadn't stopped. It was October, and he had spent most of it annoying me and teasing me.

On a lighter note, the library night with Tyler had been nice. It ended up he really did fancy me, and know we were dating-which Malfoy found hilarious. Tyler had asked me out in my favorite section of the library- which was really romantic.

A small smile lit up my face as I walked down the hall, when I felt a tap on my shoulder. I, being shook out of my thoughts, I jumped around wildly, calming down when I heard my cousin, Lily, snicker.
" Lils," I sighed, smiling slightly," Sorry, you scared me."

She laughed."I noticed." She replied, fixing her Hufflepuff tie and hair,"How's the year been so far? I heard about Tyler." She winked.

I laughed."Fine, I guess. He's nice…"

"But?" She asked, raising an eyebrow.

"But what?" I asked, leaning up against the wall outside of the Great Hall.

She sighed."You're going to argue with me about this-"

"I argue about a lot."

She laughed."I know….My point is, you always find some sort of but with some guy that asks you out or something like that. It's always start with 'he's nice, but' or 'he's funny, but.' And then something completely ridiculous like his hairs too dark or something."

"Hey! What about Trevor?" I asked, thinking of a guy in our grade who had asked me out; I said no because he had a habit of dressing up and making girls dress up while snogging.

"I….see your point on that one. But still, it's like you're waiting for a Prince to come along."

"Hey! I'm not waiting for anyone! And I don't need to be. Stop acting like you're the older here."

She rolled her eyes-a habit we both used way too often."Obviously, but I'm better at boys than you!"

"As is most females…And a lot of males." I nodded."Now, I'm going to do something I am good at-eating." I grinned, walking off. I heard her laugh behind me. I sat down next to James-who was at his last year, and to the other side of me was Fred, who was in the same year, and basically James's evil twin.

"Hey, Dorks." I grinned, picking up a piece of toast.

"We're not dorks!" They pouted, before smiling at each other."Nice." Fred and James said, reaching over my face to high five. I jumped slightly, before laughing.

"Riiiight. Course not." I smiled, eating a piece of bacon. Immediately, I shut my eyes, moaning."Merlin, that's good."

A snicker made me open my eyes and turn around to see Al and- surprise, fricking, surprise- Malfoy behind me.

Okay-seriously, where the fuck does he come from?

"Enjoying that, Rose?"

Malfoy smirked."Be might think you're up to something back here."

I hit his shoulder."Funny, real funny. "I replied, blushing slightly. He laughed and flicked my forehead, before going to the Slytherin table.

Fred turned to me."Can I hit him? I want to hit him." He said, shrugging. Like me, Fred didn't really like Malfoy. Unlike me, he was pretty civil to him…When he was around.

"Yeah, me too-trust me." I sighed.

James shrugged."Okay, he's a git to Rose-I get it, but I think he's a nice bloke."

"You're just saying that because he's Al's best friend!"

He laughed and shook his head."No, because that's considered nice, and I'm not nice to Al."

I grinned, taking his cheeks in my hands."Awww-no, you love Albie! You love him so much! He's the best younger brother for you in the world." I cooed in a baby voice. He glared at me, trying to say something, but he really couldn't as his cheeks were being pushed together. Fred was laughing at my side.

"Hate to break up this family reunion…of sorts."

Okay, really, it's not just Malfoy anymore. Everyone just comes up behind me and interrupts me. What is this?

I turned and saw Tyler. I smiled at him."Its fine, I was just messing around." I said, letting go of James and getting up.

He smiled and kissed me lightly, making Fred and James scoff like the immature idiots they are. I smiled, and grabbed his hand, walking with him.

"So…" I said, trying to think of a good topic to discuss, racking my brain for anything. Quidditch? He didn't play. Books? I doubted that would work.

"So." He replied, stuffing his hands in his pockets,"The weathers been nice."

I glanced at him."Yeah, lovely. Very rare for Scotland, don't you think?"

He nodded."Yeah, I guess. It think it looks awfully pretty out…Of course, nothing compared to you." He smiled.

I smiled."Awww…That was sweet." I replied.

He nodded, grinning."Yeah, well..." And thus began another awkward silence. I felt like a selfish brat, but he would compliment me, and then not say anything. It makes me sound awful-but it's like he thinks I'll just die in happiness; I'd rather carry on a conversation.

I kissed his cheek as I went in to the Potions classroom, an anxious feeling on me. He was so…boring. I remember that was how Frank Longbottom's and I relationship had been towards the end- awkward and out of place. I assure you, I'm over him, but I miss the spark.

I sighed, seating myself realizing I was being stupid-who cares about spark and love? I mean, there are things a lot more important, I thought, taking a book out and leaning on my hand on my hand, flipping through the pages.

As I got hallway through the book, I heard someone next to me sigh. I looked up to see Alice, who looked on the verge of tears.

"Hey…You okay?" I asked softly. She nodded, biting her lip and shutting her eyes.

"Noah…He, uh, broke up with me." She mumbled.

I widened my eyes of the mention of her long-time boyfriend. He was completely whipped to her! How did that happen?

"Well, not really, I mean, he cheated on me and I saw but he doesn't know."

I stiffened."He cheated on you?! With who?! That moron!' I gritted, clenching my pencil.

She sighed and looked down."That…girl, in our dorm. Ana?"

I rolled my eyes."She dated Malfoy last year? Woah, I mean…To do that to your dorm mate! She's such a-"

Alice cut me off with a pointed glare as the teacher walked in the room, going to the front, but stopping to let me finish, probably to catch me in some sort of trouble.

"Lovely young women?" I finished weekly. Professor LeBurry sighed and went to the front of the room, disappointed to not hand out- yet another-detention to a Weasley/Potter. I grinned at my mini-victory, sending a sympathetic look and plucked a piece of parchment.

"We can go if you want, just tell me." I scribbled, sliding it over to her. She picked it up and gave me a teary-eyed shake of the head. I sighed and nodded, looking away, having no idea how to help-I was ruddy at advice, mine was to go and beat him to a pulp. I didn't think she'd be okay with that…Dang it.

I glanced at the teacher-who had a wart on his forehead that was disgusting and distracting, who was announcing potions partners by skill. I sighed, realizing I was probably going to be alone as I was poor at potions.

"Longbottom, Potter." Alice glanced up at Al, and smiled at him being sort of friends-mainly because they were mutual friends with me. She sniffled and went to sit by him, glancing me a sad smile. I bit my lip as I waited for my name to be called.

A while later, Professor LeBurry said."Due to ze shortage of ze class, ze must have a threesome among ze class."

An immature snicker broke out through the class, including me. That was, until he spoke again.

"Ze Quiet! Malfoy, Weasley, Fernandes, you're in the back."

A few boys glanced at Scorpius."Woah…You get to have a threesome with them? Lucky!"

I blushed and glared at the boy, while Ana looked flattered."Oh, go wank to the thought of a House Elf." I muttered, going to sit across from them. I disliked both of them strongly, and the fact that they'd be making out most of the time didn't make me feel any better.

Scorpius smirked at me, turning slightly from Ana who was batting her eyes flirtatiously. She was actually pretty smart; it's just that she got around and wasn't a very nice person. See above; let dorm mates boyfriend attempt to eat her face off.

As he explained we had to do a collection of potions by Christmas break, he handed out a list and every group had to do five, six or seven for extra credit.

I sighed and shut my eyes before turning over to them.

I glared at Ana, still taken aback that she had the nerve she had.

"I have a preposition," Ana said, smiling sweetly.

"Big word for such a small brain," I mumbled. Malfoy glanced at me and smiled slightly, while Ana huffed.

"Anyways, I think Weasley should do all the work-while Scorpy and I snog."

Scorpius wrinkled his nose, while I smirked slightly. Scorpy? Was she serious?

"Oh, you mean like you did with Alice's boyfriend? Even though you know they were dating?" I asked angrily, with a raised eyebrow.

She laughed."What me and…Nick, Noland? Whatever his name was has nothing to do with you, Freckle Face."

Malfoy looked in between us, with amusement and a hint of shock.

"You hurt one of my best friends! And one of your dorm mate! Also-it's Noah, you insensitive bitch!"

She glared at me."You did not just say that- flame head!"

"Woah. A hair joke, real original," I growled.

"How does that even pertain to you?" She said, sitting up slightly.

"You hurt one of my best friends, moron!" I said a bit loudly. Malfoy was still looking between us like a very intense tennis match. I vaguely heard the teacher say he was going to leave and to be careful for he was to be back in a couple of minutes.

"Oh, is this one of your weird mama bear things?" She asked, flipping a piece of brown hair over her shoulder.

"I'm not a mama bear- but you, Fernandes, are a real whore," I replied, clenching my wand with my right hand, my left curled up in to a fist.

"Yes you are! You're always protecting people! It's pathetic." She spat.

"I'm making sure people I love aren't getting hurt by people like you." I said evenly.

She glared at me and stood up. I stood up with her, anger blinding me from thinking straight.

"Uh, girls, why don't you sit-"Malfoy started, looking sheepish.

"Shut it Malfoy!" I yelled, as Ana said,"Shh, Scorpy, one min-min."

I almost laughed as a few people glanced in our direction.

"Honestly," she asked,"Could you be any more pathetic?"

I was about to reply when her hand flung forward and hit my cheek. Everyone's attention turned to us, as I widened my eyes.

"Oh, you did not just hit me!" I said, as Malfoy gaped. She smirked, before I flung forward and tackled her.

"You-stupid-little-whore!" I yelled, quickly getting the upper hand. I may be small, but growing up with boys helps you in wrestling and fighting.

"You ugly little bitch!" She growled, flipping me over. I glared and pushed her over. A crowd had started around us, gaping, a few boys wolf whistling.

Malfoy and Al rushed towards us, trying to keep us apart. The whole time, Alice looked between angry and amused. Al grabbed me and tried to pick me up, while Malfoy attempted to heave Alice up.

"I hate you!" She screamed.

I rolled my eyes."Oh, damn, I thought you adored me." I replied, trying to keep my cool.

She scoffed."Why would I attack you?"

"Sarcasm." I said, seeing Malfoy chuckle. As everyone sat down and Al held me tightly by my arm and shoulders, Professor LeBurry came in.

"Zat iz going on here?!" He asked, glaring at Malfoy, Al, Fernandes and I.

"Nothing, we just got in an educational debate about potions," I lied, hoping he couldn't see right through it. Malfoy glanced at me, surprised.

"Oh, yeah, right! She attacked me!" Ana yelled, clenching her teeth.

"Iz zat true?" He asked, raising an eyebrow. He was not the biggest fan of my family, mainly because he was James and Fred's teacher and they particularly liked to give him hell.

"No! Of course not!" I said, as Al and-surprisingly- Malfoy shook their heads,"She hit me! Anything beyond that was protection."

"Bullshit!" Ana yelled. I was ready to hit her again-but that wouldn't get me too far.

He glared at us."Giving your families past history with violence, I wouldn't put it past you. Malfoy, Weasley, you have detention, Saturday, seven AM. Sharp."

"What?!" I yelled, widening my eyes, as did Malfoy.

"You heard me. Your group is still staying the same."

I growled and muttered something as class ended. I noticed Alice and she shook her head and ran out of the classroom. I sighed, realizing she was angry with me. I walked out of the class, which Ana was glaring at me with. Al and Malfoy walked up to.

"Rose, may I ask-what the bloody Hell was that?!" Albus asked pulling me away from the sea of students; Malfoy followed him, looking interested.

"I…I don't know, okay? I just got so angry, and she was being so….awful." I sighed, leaning against the wall.

Malfoy chuckled."I'll say-I thought one of you was going to stab each other."

"And why didn't you intervene?" Al asked, turning to his friend.

He sighed."Uh….Sorry, I was far too interested to see what would happen." He replied with a sheepish smile.

I sighed, brushing a piece of hair from my eyes."It's my fault." I said, as Al looked down.

"We'll talk about this later…" Al said," I have class."

Malfoy and I nodded, doing our farewells. As he left, I turned to Malfoy.

"Uh…Sorry." I said, standing up and looking at him,"I didn't mean to land you in detention-I just...have a small anger problem sometimes-you of all people should know."

He cracked a smile."Don't worry about it-it'll be fun, seeing your first detention." He laughed.

I laughed slightly."It's actually not my first..." I said, blushing when I remember why I had gotten a detention in the middle of fifth year.

"What have you gotten one before, for?" He raised an eyebrow.

"Uh…I'll tell you in detention." I said, looking down.

He nodded, smiling slightly."Alright-oh and Weasley?"

"Yeah?" I asked, looking up.

"I think it's pretty cool you're so protective," He smiled.

I nodded, smiling."Thanks." I said, slightly shocked.

He nodded looking….embarrassed? He was gone before I could figure it out.

Now to go gain forgiveness from Alice….Wish me luck?

AN- Thanks for reading(: Please review?
