[Rose's POV]

The fourth years were full of anticipation and enthusiasm for the upcoming Christmas Party. I really want to go, but I am a third year, unless some fourth years asks me out, there is no way I will go.

After Transfiguration class, I was packing up my books when I heard a call from behind, it was Scorpius. He was standing at the door, holding a history textbook. He motioned for me to go over, and I did.

"What's up?"

"Um... I just want to ask if you could be my partner for the Christmas Party?"

"What!? But... I -"

"Its all right, I get it..."

"Wait, I just want to know something, something I wanted to ask for so long... Do you like me?" The words just came out of my mouth natuarly, I couldn't control it. I stared up into his mesmerizing hazel eyes, so calming and safe.

"Yes, why else did you think I kissed you on the beach?" He bit his lip, wincing.

Then there was awkward silence.

"I should be heading to my next class, but my answer is no."

With hurried steps, I brushed past him and walked towards the astronomy tower.
