A/N: Yep, more ScoRose. I wish I could say I was sorry, but I'm definitely not. I just love them so much! Plus, I've discovered that flanking Rose with a bunch of overly inquisitive cousins is a lot of fun.

Day 22 / Auction 1: Dialogue: "Ok, well, sorry. I'm just going to kill [person] realquick. I'll be right back."


"Oh my god, Rose, I heard!"

"What do you mean, you heard?"

"For the baby!"

"The baby?"

Rose Malfoy was currently at her dear cousin James' wedding to some girl named Chloe whom Rose barely knew, but whom her other cousin and best friend Albus Potter was convinced was perfectly lovely. Everything was a tacky lilac, and other such icky pastels. Clearly James loved the girl or he would never have agreed to such horrendous colours.

She was currently sitting down with a glass of orange juice at the Drinks after the ceremony while waiting for dinner. Her cousin Dominique Weasley was sitting right next to her (on an ugly blue chair) and had initiated the conversation.

"Wait, are you not pregnant?"

"Umm."

"Oh, so that's why Lucy said I shouldn't repeat."

"Lucy said you shouldn't repeat?"

"Yes, cause she wasn't sure. Or maybe the person she heard it from wasn't sure. I can't exactly remember."

Rose took a deep breath and let out a forced smile: "Would you mind telling me where Lucy is, exactly?"

"Someone talking about me?" The petite red-head walked over to them, a glass of champagne in her hand.

"Lucy!" scolded Dominique, "You told me Rose was pregnant!"

"Oh, yes! Congratulations Rose!" Lucy chimed, before taking a sip of her drink.

"From where did you hear I was pregnant?" Rose smiled but had her famous I-Am-Going-To-Murder-You look on her face..

"Uuhh, from Fred?" Lucy replied hesitantly.

"Oh very well, off I go to find Fred then!" She tried to get up but immediately Lucy pushed her down.

"No, no! Pregnant women shouldn't have to overstress themselves!"

"But I'm not-"

"You're not pregnant?"

"No but-"

"Oi, Fred! Come over here!" yelled Dominique before Rose could say a word more.

The tall red-head walked over to them (there seemed to be a lot of red-heads around her at the moment). Rose was anxious to trace the origin of the rumour, lest she go scream on the wrong person.

"What's up, dearest cousins?"

"Fred, you told me Rose was pregnant!" cried Lucy indignantly.

"Seriously, if this is another one of your jokes it's not funny!" Dominique added for good measure.

"Oh, that's not a joke," Fred looked slightly confused, "I pro-"

"Yes, okay, we knew that wasn't a joke," Rose cut in impatiently, "Just tell us who told you!"

"So you are pregnant?" Dominique asked.

"Tell us the name Fred!" Rose ignored her cousin.

"Well, Lily told me and she swore it was true!"

Ah. Lily. She was close to both of the possible culprits.

"Did I hear my name?" As if on cue, Lily slid up to the other chair next to Rose, "By the way, congrats Rosie! Is it a boy or a girl?"

"Where did you hear this from?" Rose growled and Lily jumped backwards just a tiny bit.

"Are you okay Rose?"

"No, I'd like you to tell me who told you!"

"Calm down! It was Albus!"

Rose got up, hurriedly no matter how much Lucy tried to convince her to stay sitting down.

"Okay, well, sorry. I'm just going to kill Albus really quick. I'll be right back."

And she left before another one of her cousins could say another word, and neither one of them doubted for a mo:ent she was going to do what she had just said.

"Has she always been this murderous?" Lily asked.

"Meh, it's probably just the pregnancy hormones," concluded Fred.

From where they were sat, they watched Rose storm up to their black-headed cousin (it's important to note that, because he was literally the only cousin with black hair) and begin to shout at him. They could even hear her screaming something along the lines of :"Supposed to be a secret" and "Now Dad is going to find out!". They then observed Uncle Ron turn up on the scene and ask "What is Dad going to find out?" and then all three parties turned red, though probably for different reasons.
