Pairing: Albus Severus Potter/Scorpius Malfoy
11. "The Ballad of Love and Hate" by the Avett Brothers
Score writes a letter and sends it to Al.
"I can't wait to see you again."
Al reads the letter and throws it away. He wanted to hate him. He really did. It would be easier that way. It hurt too much. But he couldn't — not when Score kept sending him silly love letters.
"The grass is greener through your pretty eyes. I miss you."
Al just had to keep his head up. That, or drown his heart in butterbeer. He would forgive Score eventually. He knew he would. Life was slow and dull without Score.
"I'm yours," he wanted to tell him. "I'm yours, forever."
12. "Fall for You" by Secondhand Serenade
The best thing about tonight is they're not fighting. It's like old times — a blanket of love and laughter. It was like finally being able to breathe again.
Life was impossible without Al. Independent, self-reliant Scorpius Malfoy, who was good at absolutely everything, actually found life to be a chore without his best friend.
Now, if only every night could be like tonight…
13. "Why" by Jada Kiss
"Why? It doesn't make sense."
"What doesn't make sense?"
"Why do you want to go out with me?"
"Because I love you."
Al paused for a moment. This couldn't possibly be true, could it?
"Why?"
14. "Perfectly Marvelous" from Cabaret
"From the way I see it," Score said, "I don't think people have to explain anything! If we want to date — and it so happens that we do — then we say, we want to. I want to.
So if anyone asks about you and me, you have two alternatives.
You can either say, 'Oh yes, it's true. We're living in delicious sin. Or, you can simply tell the truth and say…
I met this perfectly marvelous boy in this perfectly marvelous place. And we're living together and having a perfectly marvelous time!"
15. "Little Lion Man" by Mumford and Sons
Sometimes Score called him his "little lion man." It was an inside joke, really, from when he messed up his sorting. Well, not messed it up, per say. His dad had assured him that he didn't care if he was a Slytherin or a Hufflepuff. But he could tell that his mum was somewhat disappointed.
See, he came from a long line of Gryffindors. In fact, his dad pulled Godric Gryffindor's bloody sword out of that fucking hat. And Al was… not a Gryffindor.
He was in Slytherin with Score. That's how they met, really, when they were first years. They sat next to each other at the Slytherin table and somehow hit it off.
"It's not your fault, Al. You didn't disappoint your folks," Score said. "They're just jealous 'cuz you got into the best house. And if it makes you fell any better, you can be my little lion man, OK?"
