Monday, yay. Yesterday was crazy, I overslept and missed breakfast and Albus basically disappeared. But I can't oversleep today, it's a full day. Care of Magical Creatures, Divination, Transfiguration, Potions and History of Magic, my day is going to be wonderful. I change into my school robes as Albus starts to wake up. "Mate, you're always up before me. What's up?" I ask as I tie my tie. "Just had a long day, yesterday," Al says as he throws on his school robes. "I guess you did but you were mainly avoiding Alice, your girlfriend," I say and pick up my book bag. "No, I wasn't Scorp," he scoffs. "Fine, whatever you say," I say and head down to the Great Hall. "Trouble with friends, Malfoy,"Allison hisses and flips her dark brown hair over her shoulder. "Sod off, Riddle,"I command and walk faster. "Taken your girlfriend's catchphrase I see," she says and smirks. "Locomotor Wibbly," I say and wave my wand and orange sparks fly out as she falls to the ground. "Just you wait Malfoy, you'll get it," she threats. "Oh little one, my father was a Death Eater I get those threats daily," I scoff and arrive at the Great Hall. Rosie sits at the Slytherin table, besides the rude looks, waiting for me. "Hi Scorpion,"she says. "Hey Thorns,"I greet and sit down. "I heard a hex in the hall, figured it was Allison and you," She says and I smirk. "It was a good one," I say. "Now Scorp, I need answers. Where was Albus yesterday?" She asks and puts her crazy red hair up. "Not in the common room, around me, and I'm guessing not with Alice. What happened?" I ask and start to eat some toast. "Alice caught him talking with Jane, some Ravenclaw," Rosie says and points at James comforting Alice. "Oh that's just great. Now we have bad person in each house," I say sarcastically and Rosie hits me. "Not in Gryffin- wait Angus. Ok our group gets a lot of enemies. Phoebe, Allison, Angus, and now Jane," Rosie says and sighs. "How about we talk about it in Divination?" I suggest and Rosie nods. "Bye Thorns," I say as she walks away.


For Care of Magical Creatures, Hagrid talks about Salamanders, which aren't interesting but he said next week will be Hippogriffs. I walk up to Divination in the north tower since it was an elective it was multi-house, we were working on tea leaf reading. I climb up through the trap door and take my usual seat. Soon enough Rosie and Alice show up together and Rosie sits at my table as Alice sits at the table next to us. Albus comes up the trapdoor with a brunette Ravenclaw and they are laughing and smiling. "That's her," Alice mumbles as Albus comes next to Alice. "So what happened?" I ask and make eye contact with Rosie. "Albus hung out with that nut all day and left Alice without talking to her," Rosie says and I snort. "That's stupid," I say and look at Rosie like she's crazy. "How would you like it if I hung out with Angus all day without looking your way?" Rosie says. "I see your point but Albus? It's a shock he's in Slytherin, he's like a big teddy bear," I say and laugh. Trelawney passes out cups and tea leaves. "This is so stupid," I say trying to make something out of Rosie's tea leaves. "Just watch Alice and Albus and repeat what they say if Trelawney comes by," I say and Rosie laughs.
Alice looks at Albus and says," Looks like you in deep trouble."
"Uh. Looks like you're going to have good fortune," Albus says and sets the cup down. "Yea ok let's not say what they said," Rosie says and I nod. Thankfully, Trelawney never got us class ended. "I'll met you in the library," I tell Alice and Rosie for our free period next. I catch up with Albus just before he caught the Ravenclaw. "Hey mate, library Golden Group Study," I say and look at him.
"Uh can't I promised I'd help someone with something," he says and I roll my eyes as he leaves.
"Scorpie! Scorp! Scorpius!" A perky voice says. "Bloody-" I start to say but she appears by my side.
"Hi Phoebe," I groan.
"Scorpius! I was thinking-" she starts.
"Ok stop nothing good comes from you when you start to think. Oh is that Rose? Rosie!" I say and wave at a random person above me and as soon as that Phoebe runs down the stairs. "Thank you," I mumble and head to the library.


Transfiguration is quick mainly McGonagall talking unlike last week. Potions and History of Magic flew by faster than a golden snitch. Soon it's dinner time. I head down to the Great Hall and walk straight to Gryffindor's table. 

"Ok Alice your boyfriend is messed up," I say and Alice looks on the verge of tears. "Malfoy," Rosie snaps and points her wand at me.  "I mean you and Albus are the best couple ever," I say.

"I wish Albus thought that," Alice groans and looks down at her stew. "He does, Albus isn't the cheating type and he likes you," I say and she nods.

"Thanks Scorpius," Alice says.
"No problem Longbottom," I say and Rosie smiles.
"You didn't embarrass yourself causing yourself pain, nice Scorpion," Rosie says.
"I'm a master Thorns I can't help it," I say and smirk.
"Eat dung, Malfoy," Rosie says playfully and I return to Slytherin's table. "Did Little Malfoy talk to his girlfriend?" Allison says in Albus's seat.
"You're lucky I don't tell everyone here who you truly are. If I were Rosie you'd be gone, but I believe in second chances, don't mess it up," I warn and she smirks.
"Wouldn't dream of it," Allison says and disappears.
"Hey Scorp," Albus says all friendly.
"You do realize you have a girlfriend right?" I ask him.
"Yea, Alice," He says, weirdly.
"I'm just making sure your brain is in the right place. Because it seems like you forgot," I say and Albus knits his eyebrows together.
"What's that suppose to mean?" He questions.
"Your own brother pays more attention to your girlfriend than you these days!" I shout and Albus stands up.
"You don't know anything Scorpius," Albus scolds.
"I don't know anything? Are you sure you're not talking to a mirror? I can't believe you, even when Rosie and I fought we returned friends," I say.
"Don't bring my cousin into this. You and her are still arguing about Allison!" Albus shouts.
"Don't bring Rosie into this? I'll bring Alice into this than. What happened to you? You are acting like a dementor and sucking out all of Alice's love for you!" I shout and Albus launches across the table. He knocks me to the ground and punches my nose. I roll on the ground and punch whatever. Albus kicks my ankle and I punch his gut. "Scorpius Hyperion Malfoy!" Rosie shouts from a distance. I grab a handful of Albus' hair and punch his nose. "Mr. Potter and Mr.Malfoy I command you to stop," Teddy's voice says and Albus and I separated. "I'll take them," Professor Longbottom says.
"Longbottom, they aren't in your house," McGonagall says.
"Professor McGonagall, Albus is dating my daughter and Ron would want me talking to Scorpius not somebody he doesn't know who teaches Ancient Runes," Longbottom says and though my swollen eye I see  McGonagall nods. Longbottom escorts us to his office.
"For a month you have detention with me. 50 points from Slytherin for that. And Mr.Potter you be careful around my daughter," Longbottom says trying to act tough.
"Yes sir," we both say and head out. "I can't believe you. I needed that extra time for something," Albus says and I scoff.
"Sure, I needed it to catch up on school work and talk to my friends not ignore them you git," I say and storm off to the infirmary. I get an ice pack and walk to the library.
"Scorpius Hyperion Malfoy," Rosie whispers and slaps me, "I can't believe you would do that." She stands on her toes and kisses my cheek.
"Ok I'm officially done," I say and sit down in a chair and hold up the ice pack to my eye.
"Your lip is busted, bloody nose, and another black eye," Rosie scolds and sits down.
"Albus is worse, my dad will be happy," I say and Rosie scoffs.
"I can't believe you aren't defending Albus," Rosie says," He's your best mate."
"I know common sense and him ignoring his girlfriend is wrong," I say.
"Thank you. I appreciate it but if this happens again, do it in a different matter," Rosie says.
"Good night Thorns," I say and she smiles.
"Night Scorpion," she says as we exit the library. She heads to Gryffindor tower as I head to Slytherin's dungeon. I just had a fight with my best mate, Rose Weasley kisses my cheek, and I just got beat up and beat someone up, doesn't that sound wonderful. Let's just hope it doesn't stay like this besides Rosie kissing me.
