A/N: As it is ten years later Harry is 42 and Draco is 42 almost 43.
Chapter Two
Heading for the kitchen to grab a bottle of water before he entered hell for a month, Scorpius had to screw his eyes shut.
"Argh! Dad! Harry! Save it for the trip away will you!" He stayed rooted to the spot, eyes closed until he heard Harry say they had stopped kissing.
"Blimey do you want me to bring up breakfast" he walked to the fridge and grabbed his drink.
"I was only kissing your dad, you've seen us kiss plenty of times Scorpius" Harry said, trying to conceal the humour in his voice.
"Yeah but dad doesn't normally have his hands on your bum!" Scorpius smirked as Harry turned bright red, satisfied he left in search of Al.
Al was in the reception room, standing by the fireplace, putting his luggage down ready to take to Ron and Hermione's. "Hey Scorpius, get me a bottle of water too?"
Scorpius shook his head "No I didn't and I'm not going back in the kitchen, dad and Harry are making out – it's gross!" Al shivered and Scorpius smirked. He didn't really mind, it was weird as they were guys and Al and him sometimes got picked on about it. But they didn't care and the other students at Hogwarts soon shut up, realising they were not going to get a reaction out of them.
So what if his dad was gay and with Harry bloody Potter. He heard all the stupid jokes and snide remarks in the last five years at Hogwarts, he'd gotten used to it. If it wasn't, 'Your dads a fag' it was 'Your dad and granddad were death eaters' Scorpius didn't fucking care!
He was the only one out of his family to have a relationship with his granddad. His dad chose to end his relationship with him and was only polite for Scorpius' sake. When Scorpius was six his grandmother was ill and they reconnected with them. His grandmother died when he was seven and he had a strained relationship with his grandfather ever since.
His dad refused to reconnect fully with him, he said he didn't want to poison Scorpius against his grandfather so he didn't explain why he couldn't make it up with him. Scorpius could see how hard it must be, his grandfather was difficult, but Scorpius could cope with. Besides his grandfather treated him differently than he does his dad.
Scorpius doesn't agree with everything his grandfather says and he ignores most of the insults that come out of his mouth, mainly about the Potters and Weasleys, but he was fond of him, he was different with him and he would miss him when he was gone.
He had asked his dad if he could stay with his grandfather for the month but his dad flat out refused and wouldn't even consider it – it was so unfair!
His dad walked in followed by Harry and they checked they had everything as the place would be locked up once they left.
"Yes dad, stop fussing" Scorpius whined.
They stepped through the fireplace and entered Rose's kitchen, luckily she wasn't in there so he had a moment to calm himself.
Al bellowed "Oi Weasleys we're here" and Harry slapped the back of Al's head, scolding him for his big mouth.
Hermione walked in, smiled and told them that Rose was in the back garden and to go join her. His dad chuckled – actually chuckled, git.
Scorpius hugged his dad and Harry and told them to have a nice trip and happy tenth anniversary and all that rubbish. He was delaying the inevitable meeting with Rose.
Al simply said "Bring me back a cool present yeah!" hugged his dad and Draco and left for the garden.
After being told to get it over with by his dad he left hurriedly, hoping Hermione hadn't twigged what his dad was on about. Bloody dad had as big of a mouth as Al.
Walking to the back garden, he prayed that since the last time he saw Rose all his new feelings and ahem dirty thoughts would go away. No such luck! Rose was walking towards him, curly red hair fanning out behind her and she must be doing it on purpose as she was wearing the tiniest tinniest shorts he had ever seen and a barely there strappy top. He groaned and was glad he was wearing baggy knee length shorts.
As soon as he was in arms reach, she grabbed him and hugged him tight. He angled his groin away, not wanting to show her how much he was enjoying her hug. What – he was a sixteen year old boy, being hugged tightly by his crush and he could feel her boobs squish against him.
"I've missed you, you didn't reply to my last letter. This is going to be great, a whole month together!" she pulled away and smiled up into his face.
She had a beautiful smile, he wanted to make her smile just so he could see it. He mentally slapped himself – pull yourself together!
"Yeah a whole month" he grumbled, she didn't notice his tone was far from happy.
"Al what do you want to do? Scorpius any ideas? She looked between her two best friends with a questioning look.
Al shrugged "Dunno want to walk to the local shop get some snacks and chill in the park?" he looked to Rose and then Scorpius.
"Nothing better to do for now, okay."
"What about Hugo?" Scorpius asked, Rose turned to him and laughed
"Do you ignore everything I tell you, Merlin Scorpius" and shoved him lightly in the chest.
"He is spending the first week at a friend's house, so you and Al are in his room."
"Oh" he managed as he was still thinking about her hand on his chest.
All the adults came out then and Scorpius looked to the sky and silently prayed that his dad wouldn't be a prat and drop him in it.
"Mum, Dad we're going to the shop and then the park, okay?" Rose had started to leave before her mum or dad had even answered.
Her mum said "Okay darling" and her dad said "Get changed first, that's far too short" and Scorpius reluctantly agreed with him in his head. However Rose ignored her dad, Ron commenting on her clothes was a regular thing and she never listened to him.
"I swear he still thinks I'm ten or something, he hasn't noticed I'm a women now" Al smirked at Scorpius and said "Bet other people have noticed you're a women"
Scorpius 'accidently' stood on his foot and smiled as he started hopping on one foot.
"Yeah lots of people at school have noticed, Rich especially" she smiled as she spoke about her boyfriend and Scorpius' mood soured.
"Don't look like that Scorpius, he's my boyfriend deal with it, just because you don't like him." He sighed he didn't want to fight with Rose on the first day here.
"I will never like Nott but I will leave off the rude comments for you" she rolled her eyes
"Gee thanks Scorpius that's so kind of you!"
Al had recovered from his foot injury and decided to help Scorpius, not wanting to risk further injury "So you've made up have you?" she glared at Al, Al wasn't meant to let Scorpius know they were fighting.
"We weren't really fighting, just a silly argument." She frowned.
"What was it about?" Scorpius asked, hoping to stir the ill feelings up again and cause trouble between them. She stopped mid step and spun around and Scorpius walked right into her, he stuck out his hands and stopped her from falling. They looked at each other for a long time and the she broke the silence.
"Actually Malfoy we fought about you." She angrily said.
"Me" Scorpius exclaimed
"Yes, Rich was slagging you off, saying your dad was a cock sucker and that he was pleased that his Aunt Astoria divorced him.
Scorpius hated Rich for the same reason, he was the son of Daphne Nott (Nee Greengrass) and Theodore Nott and he knew all about the 'so called' issues in his dad and excuse of a mother's marriage.
"Well tell him to fuck off, Astoria was proven to be a stupid liar and if his mother, my aunt cannot see that then more the fool them." He stormed off in front, walking fast to the shop.
He hated Rich because he was his cousin and he was a grade A asshole. He was one of the worst at school for winding him and Al up for their dads being gay. Scorpius figured it was because his mum Astoria, Rich's Aunt had bad mouthed Harry and Draco to Rich growing up.
He never called his mum, 'mum' he always called her Astoria. He never really saw her, she tried a few supervised visitations but was rubbish and then she didn't bother. If he was lucky he'd get a birthday card, but she rarely remembered.
Rich was devious though, always starting trouble when Rose wasn't around, Scorpius had hoped that she didn't know. If she knew some of the stuff he said about his dad, Harry, him and Al . She wouldn't want to be his girlfriend. She was aware of some teasing, but she just shrugged it off saying Scorpius and Al slagged Rich off as much as he slagged them off.
She didn't know how bad Rich was or the fact that he always started it.
Al and Rose caught up to him and Rose grabbed his hand, pulling him to a stop. She looked at him with those bright blues eyes and his mood evaporated.
"Hey Scorpius I'm sorry, I didn't mean to get angry."
He smiled weakly at her, "So why did you fight?" he tried again, reminding himself not to lose his temper.
"Well he was saying those awful things about your dad and Uncle Harry and I told him that he shouldn't be so homophobic and that I wouldn't stand for him slagging off my family" she looked at the floor, "Then he said I was only arguing with him because I was your friend and that I always took your side"
When she glanced back up, Scorpius could see she looked sad, "I said it wasn't, Harry is my Uncle and Al my cousin and that it wasn't just about you." Scorpius stomach felt like lead, he wanted it to be just about him. He wanted her to stand up for him only and not for Harry and AL, she had to stand up for them they were family, he wasn't.
"We fought for a bit, but then he apologised and said that he was being a dick"
Scorpius mumbled that he's always acting like a dick but didn't repeat it when Rose said "What I didn't hear that"
"Nothing, just tell him stop spreading lies around the school about dad. He's been telling everyone that dad had an affair with Harry and that's why Astoria and dad divorced. I told him he could request the court records from the ministry or the old newspapers to see the truth, but he said that Astoria only lied about all that in court, as she was broken hearted over dads affair." Scorpius kicked a stone as he finished.
"Dad didn't have an affair, he didn't" Rose picked up his hand again and squeezed it once before releasing it.
"I know they didn't have an affair, we all know that, he's trying to wind you up. Don't let it get to you." She smiled and changed the subject asking Al if he thought her mum and dad would let them go to a local concert this week.
Scorpius was pleased that the conversation had been changed but he still felt glum – talking about Rich always depresses him.
They purchased way too many sweets and Scorpius knew Hermione would never approve and they sat in the nearby park, chilling out and talking. Once they stayed off the topic of Rich, Scorpius found it was like old days – before his crush on Rose. Maybe he could have a normal friendship and try and forget his crush, he had his moments. One of those moments were right now, Rose had decided to buy a bloody lolly and was sucking away on it, right next to him.
Scorpius swore she must know and was teasing him, but deep down he knew she didn't know, she was acting like any normal friend would around her best friends. She just forgot that her two best friends were randy teenagers and so Scorpius current issue.
He had the very embarrassing sex talk with his dad and Harry awhile back – god it was awful. His dad spoke as if it was merely a business meeting he was having and he kept snickering every time Harry said a naughty word and Harry blushed, mumbled and rushed through the whole thing. He didn't care, like most teenagers he knew most of what there was to know and not from his parents. He only lacked using his knowledge and getting the experience.
He had a couple of none serious girlfriends and did some snogging and heavy groping but he never had oral sex or sex. He hoped and prayed that Rose hasn't either, or at least if she does he wouldn't mind as long as it wasn't with Rich.
Al was the same, he'd kissed girls and touched their breast etc but never had anything more serious like oral or sex. He and Al talked about everything, they didn't care, and they were both going through similar things, with puberty and feeling for girls, so they understood one another. Boys being boys they were more crude about it and their dorm mates at Hogwarts would share stories about wanking and how far they'd gone with girls.
Al and he were sorted into Slytherin and Harry lost the bet with his dad, when he asked what his forfeit would be, Harry and his dad blushed and changed the subject. He decided he didn't want to know. Scorpius and Al shared a dorm room, luckily Rich was in a different house so he didn't have to put up with him. Rose was sorted into Ravenclaw – no surprise there really.
Finally Rose had eaten her lolly and Scorpius could concentrate on other things – hopefully diffusing his problem.
"Natalie said she might come to the concert if we can go" Rose eyed Al waiting for a reaction.
Al pulled at the blades of grass in front of him and tried to sound nonchalant, "Is she, oh that will be nice" but he blushed and his act was shattered.
Scorpius punched his shoulder lightly, "Dude she fancies the pants of you, go for it." Grinning at his best friend as he told him.
Al grinned back and Rose muttered 'Boys' under her breath.
The first few days went by with no trouble – well apart from Scorpius' personal battle to stop getting turned on by Rose. It was the fourth day and Ron had agreed to let them all go to the local concert, the band playing were not famous nationally, but they were a popular local – that hadn't been discovered yet.
They were getting ready and waiting for Natalie. Al and Scorpius were teasing each other and talking about the possibility of sneaking in alcohol. Rose was arguing with her dad about the length of her dress,
"That Rose Weasley is NOT a dress, it's the length of a t-shirt. Go get changed or you're not going." He was determined, she stomped off and put on small black shorts so it looked like a top and shorts. Her dad approved and they were allowed to leave, Scorpius knew the moment they went around the corner the shorts would come off and she'd be wearing it as a dress again.
He was right she stopped around the corner, leaned on Scorpius for support and removed her shorts, she then folded them and put them in her coat pocket. She had to keep them, to put them back on before she got home. They were underage and couldn't do magic outside of school and the concert was also a muggle concert.
Scorpius inherited his dad's sense of style and always had the latest clothes - muggle and wizarding. He was constantly told he looked, 'just like his dad did at his age' and he hated being told that. Just as much as Al hated being told, 'you look just like Harry Potter' it was fucking annoying, they were their own people – so what if they looked like their dads.
Scorpius had shaved his hair off when he was thirteen. He was pissed off with people commenting about how his hair was just like his dads and granddads and 'trademark Malfoy' so one day he shaved it off. His dad went mental and Harry had to calm him down, Scorpius was grounded for ages because of it. It grew back and he know sports 'typical Malfoy hair and style'.
He grew to like it again though as Rose once told him that she always liked his hair. She said since the age of six when they first met she liked it and she thought it was unique and he should be proud of it. He looked after his hair ever since.
They arrived at the concert hall and waited outside for Natalie. Al was fidgeting and trying to tame his excuse for hair.
"Don't bother mate, you will only make it worse" Al shoved Scorpius and he bumped into Rose.
"Prat, Sorry Rose" he said, but secretly he wasn't sorry he accidently touched her breast. Al smirked at Scorpius and he had to cough to hide his laugh.
Natalie arrived shortly after them and Scorpius could see that Al fancied her, it was obvious. He only hoped he wasn't so obvious or that Rose was oblivious.
Natalie wore a short denim skirt and a tight fitted t-shirt with the bands logo on, it was tied in a knot at the end by her hip. Scorpius could admit that Natalie was an attractive girl, she was petite, had brown hair, brown eyes and pretty features. However she looked too similar to his mum for his liking and that's probably why he liked Rose, she was the opposite of his mum.
She had wild red curly hair, curves and she was tall. Not as tall as him - but tall for a girl.
They greeted each other and headed in to the venue. Most of them were up-to-date on muggle culture and technology, they even had mobile phones that they used outside of school.
It was a venue that held a certain amount of people, but no one was allocated seats. You just stood and watched and worked your way to the front if you wanted to be closer. They served alcohol but only to those who had ID and were 18 and over. They agreed to stick together and found a spot at the centre of the crowd and waited for the band.
People kept pushing past and knocking Rose or Scorpius, resulting in them brushing up against each other. Scorpius would give Rose long lingering looks and smile before looking away. The band started playing at they had fun jumping around to the music. About half way through the set Rose had her phone stuck in front of her face and Al was getting annoyed.
"Put that away, enjoy the night Rose" he told her, Scorpius silently agreed.
"I will, I'm just telling Rich where to find us" She finished her text and put her phone away.
Scorpius swore under his breath – this night had just gone downhill fast. Now he was the gooseberry, Rose and Rich and Al and Natalie – fucking great.
About fifteen minutes later Rich appeared and kissed Rose, he held his middle finger up to Scorpius behind Rose's back. Scorpius was tempted to snap the fucking thing off.
Rose pulled away and told Rich to behave. He wrapped his arms around her possessively and Scorpius wondered how she could stand to be suffocated by him like that.
Al and Natalie shot Scorpius sympathetic glances and then returned their attention back to the band.
Rich pulled out a fizzy drinks bottle that looked like ordinary cola, "I poured most the cola away and topped it up with fire whisky" he looked smug and handed it to Rose.
Scorpius frowned "Do you think that is wise Rose?"
She took a large sip and glared at Scorpius, she had always hated him telling her what to do and would do the opposite to spite him.
He rolled his eyes, no way was he holding her hair if she was sick later and no way was he taking the brunt of Ron's anger when he finds out. He stepped away from Rose and Rich and stood the other side of Al and Natalie.
Rose would look at him and take another sip as if asking for him to say something. Rich was groping her and she looked like a common tart, but he held his tongue. Rich pulled out another bottle of spiked cola and started drinking it himself.
A girl next to him was watching him and he smiled at her, she inched closer, "Hi, I'm Racheal, what's your name?" Scorpius thought she was quite attractive, even if it was only for a quick holiday snog.
"Hey Racheal, I'm Scorpius." He smiled, he'd been told he had the same breath taking abilities as his dad when he smiled and he used it to his full advantage.
"What a strange name, do you live around here?" she played with her hair and smiled back at him.
"Yes my dad must have picked it to be funny, I don't mind though it's unique. And no I don't live around here I'm staying with a friend for a while." He moved closer to her, arm brushing over hers.
Al noticed that Rose was ignoring Rich and the band and instead was watching the progress Scorpius was making with the hot chick. Interesting maybe she liked Scorpius but didn't think he liked her so she went out with Rich instead. Hmm he would have to observe his two best friends more closely.
Scorpius glanced over at Rose and noticed she was glaring daggers at him and then when she noticed he was looking she took another big swig of her alcoholic drink.
Scorpius shook his head and thought, 'I can't be dealing with this shit'.
Racheal had snaked her arm around Scorpius and he noted Rose clinging onto Rich tighter. Whatever he thought and decided to ignore Rose and her silly games. Instead he bent his head and captured Racheal's lips in a kiss.
Al shook his head Scorpius was clearly kissing that random to piss Rose off for inviting Rich and Rose was kissing Rich to spite Scorpius. Argh! Why did he have to be in the middle, now he understood why his dad used to complain about Uncle Ron and Hermione and someone called Lavender and Viktor?
Deciding to hell with his best friends and their fucked up relationship he moved in and kissed Natalie, all three sets of teenagers snogging and ignoring the band.
Soon it became apparent that Rose was slightly drunk and Scorpius went into automatic 'Protect Rose' mode and told Racheal to do one and walked back to Rose.
"Hey Rose, come on I think you should go home" he took hold of her upper arm.
She yanked it free, "You Scorpius Malfoy are an ass and you don't get to tell me what to do"
He gave a frustrated sigh, "Look Rose your parents are going to be pissed off, y=we need to take you somewhere to get a coffee or something"
Rich shoved Scorpius and Scorpius shoved him back.
"She said leave her alone Malfoy, Merlin take a hint" and he shoved him again.
Scorpius was fuming and was about to punch the smug bastard when Al grabbed his fist and said no. Al and Natalie managed to tug Rose away and out of the venue. All five of them stood outside, Scorpius glaring at Rich.
"How can you be so irresponsible, she's half cut and you're meant to look out for her" his fists clenched.
"Whatever don't try and act hard, we all know you're a fag like your dad" Al had to hold Scorpius back as Natalie told Rich to go home. He kissed Rose and left, shouting as he went.
"Fine I'm only leaving because Malfoy looks like he wants to stick his cock up my ass" then he ran as Scorpius struggled against Al's hold.
"I fucking hate him" he said as he stormed off in the direction of Rose's house.
Scorpius arrived home first and he was still pissed off, he banged the door as he wretched it open.
"Whoa don't rip it off his hinges mate" Ron said
Scorpius apologised and said that Rose had somehow gotten hold of alcohol, he didn't say from who, as he wasn't a snitch, one thing he didn't get from his dad.
"You what, what do you mean somehow?" Ron had stood and his face was bright red.
Hermione came in and looked at Ron and then at Scorpius, "Ron? Why are you shouting?"
"Scorpius has just informed me that our darling daughter is drunk" he stormed to the door and looked out trying to catch a glimpse of Rose.
Scorpius winced as when she appeared, being held up by Al and Natalie she stopped right in front of Ron and puked at his feet.
Al walked her to a kitchen chair and walked Natalie to the fire place and she flooed home. As soon as Natalie had left all hell broke loose. Both Ron and Hermione were yelling at all three teenagers, eventually Hermione had yelled for Ron to shut up and said they need to get Al and Scorpius to explain one at a time, then they will sort punishment.
"I don't know what happened, we were at the concert enjoying ourselves and Rose was only drinking cola" Al said, Scorpius wondered if he was trying to play dumb or if he was actually that stupid.
"Are you saying someone spiked her drink?" Ron asked
"No, maybe, I dunno Uncle Ron" Al looked at the floor.
Hermione had gone over to Rose and was stroking back her hair and giving her water. She said,
"It's not spiked, unless a wizard spiked her drink - I smell fire whisky on her breath"
Trust Hermione to work that out Scorpius thought.
"Well what did you see Scorpius?" Ron was eyeing him, face stern.
"What I didn't give it to her, none of the rest of us were stupid enough to drink"
"Oi watch your mouth Scorpius, you're a guest in our home and don't forget that" Ron said.
"Sorry it's just stupid I told her not to drink and I told her to go steady, she didn't listen and now look at her" he huffed.
"So you knew she was drinking?"
"Yes I knew, I tried to stop her I really did but she's so damn stubborn" he looked at the floor and said "Sorry"
"Well you boys go to your room, we will deal with Rose. As you are staying with us for a month, we will punish you as we see fit and we will tell your dads when they get back" Hermione voice was stern with an edge of disappointment.
They nodded and left to go to Hugo's room or their temporary room.
As soon as they were in the room Al rounded on Scorpius, "Why didn't you say it was Rich? Why were you winding Rose up making her drink?" he fumed.
"Me! I didn't MAKE Rose do anything, she chose to drink and I wasn't winding her up, I'm entitled to kiss a girl I find attractive. Rose was with Rich, surly it's him you should be laying into and I didn't say it was him as it wouldn't change anything, we'd still be in trouble and Rose will still be drunk. I'm NOT a snitch" with that he stormed to the bathroom to get ready for bed.
When he returned Al was in bed pretending to be asleep and Scorpius pretended he thought he was asleep and ignored him.
