"So, you are saying that Rose is in a relationship?" asked Albus. Scorpius nodded. "Bloody hell, that's not true" said Albus. "But, she told me" replied Scorpius. Albus sighed.

Suddenly, the Slytherin common room was filled with gossips.

"Do you know that Rose Weasley quitted being the captain?"

"Yes and Head Girl too"

"Is she out of her mind?"

"Seems like"

"Do you know she likes Luka Finnigan?"

"Oh, she is already dating him"

Albus and Scorpius looked around puzzled. "Is she dating that Luka guy?" asked Albus. "I don't know" replied Scorpius in a low voice. "Let's ask her" said Albus and held Scorpius' hand. The two moved towards Gryffindor common room. "Hey sis" said Albus waving at Lily. "Albus, what are you doing here? Come out" replied Lily and the three moved out of the common room. "So, what's it?" she asked. "Uhm.. Lily is it true that Rose is dating Luka?" asked Scorpius. "Yes" replied Lily. Both of them stared at her. "Why?" asked Scorpius. "What do you mean by the word why?" asked Lily. "N-nothing" he replied and walked away.

"It's pretty much visible that he is jealous" said Lily. "Yeah. Let's make my and your ship sail" replied Albus. "But, how?" asked Lily. "Okay so, you go to Rose and make her realize that she still loves Scorpius and not that Luka guy" replied Albus. "And, what about you?" asked Lily. "I will just grab chocolate frogs and watch the drama" he replied. "ALBUS!" yelled Lily. "I was just kidding, chill down. I will make Scorpius realize his feelings for Rose" he replied. "Okay, that works" she replied and nodded. "We can get some help from Uncle Ron too" said Albus and winked. Lily laughed and nodded.

Lily moved towards Rose in the common room. She was reading a letter. "What's up Rosie?" she asked. Rose sighed and pointed towards the letter. It said:

Dear Rose,

It's me Ron. What has gotten into you? Quitted being the Head Girl and Quidditch Captain? Why? You know, that only a few get this opportunity and why did you quit? Me and Hermione are really disappointed. We didn't expect this from you. Well, for now I can say study hard Rose.

Luka? Seriously? Your dating him? What about Scorpius? I thought you liked him. I want my ship to sail, and that Luka guy won't work. Well, i hope it's Scorpius but, yes do what you like.
Dad

"He knows that you like Scorpius?" asked Lily. "Yeah" Rose replied. "Do you still love him?" Lily asked. "Yes. I admit that. I do. I don't know why but, i just can't give up on him" replied Rose. "So, why are you dating Luka, then?" asked Lily. "I can't wait for Scorpius for my whole life. I have to move on. Luka is a nice guy. He likes me" she replied. "And you, do you like him?" asked Lily. There was a sudden silence. "No- but, i am sure i will soon have feelings for him" she replied and walked away.

On the other hand, Albus reached the Slytherin common room and found Scorpius reading some book. "I know you like her, Scorp" said Albus and took the book away from him.

"Who?"

"Rose"

"Are you out of your mind, Albus?"

"No. I know you do"

"I don't"

"Yes, you do"

"If i like her, i must have felt something. I don't like her" replied Scorpius. "Why are you jealous then?" asked Albus. "I am not jealous. Why would I be?" he said. "Because you love her" replied Albus. "Oh stop it, Albus" said Scorpius. "Ok so, tell me then.. Why were you worried when she protected you from Bellatrix's curse?" asked Albus. "B-Because she protected me, so i was worried" he replied.

"And, Why were you the one to take her to the hospital wing when she got hurt at Quidditch?" asked Albus. "I was s-scared, she is my friend that's why" replied Scorpius. "Friend? I see. Why were you the one to protect her from Zabini and his friends?" he asked. "Uhmm... Stop it Albus. I was by chance their because of my Head duty. And i saw them and stopped to rescue her" replied Scorpius. "Just for a friend's sake? This one too?.. And, I wonder why you smelt her in Amortentia?" asked Albus. Scorpius stared at him for a moment then replied," I smelt Lily". "No, it was Rose" told Albus. "And how can you say that?" asked Scorpius. "Flowers and broomstick- Open your mind, dumb man" said Albus.

Scorpius thought for a moment. Yes, Albus was right. Flowers and broomstick, it resembled Rose. He loved Rose. He loved her from the starting. Now he knew why when Rose hugged him, he could feel butterflies. Now he knew why, he was feeling like something odd when he saw her with Luka. Now, he knew why.

"I-I didn't realize" he said. Albus chuckled. "Why are you laughing?" asked Scorpius. "Took you long to realize" he said. "Yeah.. but she loves Luka" said Scorpius. "No- Actually, she had and has a crush on you since 4th year" replied Albus. "Don't joke, Albus" said Scorpius. "I'm not joking" replied Albus. "She does?" he asked blushing. "Aww, someone is blushing" teased Albus.

It's been three days since Luka and Rose are dating. It was an Hogsemade weekend. The students headed to Hogsemade full of talks and fun. Rose was there along with Albus and Scorpius. "I have to take some sickles from Lily. I will be back in a few minutes" said Albus and headed away. "Umm... Aren't you today hanging out with Luka?" asked Scorpius. "No- he is with his friends today. We will probably hang out in the next Hogsemade weekend" replied Rose. "Oh- I see" he said. "What about your girlfriend? Aren't you hanging out with her?" asked Rose in a low voice. "My girlfriend? I don't have a girlfriend" he replied. "Anna? Isn't she your girlfriend?" asked Rose. "No- she isn't my girlfriend.. Wait, did you saw her kissing me?" asked Scorpius. Rose nodded.
