“Getting drunk sometimes causes regrets.”

Rose opened her eyes as the sun assaulted them. She shifted and quietly groaned. Her head pounded with a raging hangover from the drinks last night. She had quickly lost count of how many firewhiskeys she and Scorpius had consumed. Suddenly she was alarmed. Scorpius. She had shagged Scorpius Malfoy. If her father /ever/ found out...Rose didn't want to think about it. She completely turned and found Scorpius completely at rest. He was adorable when he slept and didn't remind her of the malicious seventeen year old boy that had tormented her for nearly forty-eight hours. Scorpius's eyes fluttered open and he smiled softly at her before closing his eyes again, “Good morning, beautiful.” He kissed her neck before wrapping an arm around her waist.

“We shagged last night.” Rose whispered as she looked at him.

“That would explain why I'm in your bed and why we are both nude.” Scorpius answered half-awake.

“Don't try to be funny right now, Scorpius! This could be serious!” Rose hissed, “Did we wake Emilie?”

Scorpius shrugged, “I don't know Rose.”

“Go check!” Rose said, pushing him out of her bed. He landed with a thud on the side of the bed, “Are you okay?”

“Just hit my nose is all.” Scorpius grumbled. He pulled on his black boxers as he stood. He stepped out of the room and stood quietly. He didn't hear anything for a moment, then a giggle was heard from the couch. Scorpius stepped closer to investigate and found Emilie snogging James Potter.

“Malfoy what are you doing here?” James yelled as he jumped up and had his wand pointed at the blonde male.

Scorpius put his hands up in surrender as Rose came running out in his dress shirt from last night. He had to admit...she looked good in it.

“Rose? Half-dressed...” James said accusingly, “If you did anything to my cousin...”

“If I did anything...she liked it.” Scorpius said with that signature Malfoy smirk.

“Scorpius.” Rose hissed. She turned to James with a somber expression. “Don't yell. My head hurts. Please don't tell my father.”

“He would burst a vein.” James said, “What's he doing here, Rose?”

Rose gulped. If she didn't tell James the whole story(with the truth) he would go to their family and tell everyone.

“When you met Emilie, she was helping him escape and keep out of the public eye. He came back...for whatever reason, and I kept him because...well, that part of the plan isn't all planned out yet but I was thinking of chasing him out sometime-”

“Before or after you two shagged?” James asked with crossed arms and a glare at her and Scorpius. “Suppose it would be after, now.”

“You were planning on chasing me out?” Scorpius asked with a slight frown.

“She should.” James included.

“That's it, Potter!” Scorpius said before he lunged at James. Th dark-haired boy's wand went spinning away from him.

“Scorpius!” Rose exclaimed.

“James!” Emilie complained. The two girls looked at each other before pulling out their wands and separating the boys from their brawl.

“You two are like little boys fighting over a toy soldier.” Emilie scolded, “grow up and talk out your problems.”

“Talking's for girls.” James panted as he struggled to get out of Emilie's hold.
