Chapter 5

Scorpius' POV

Silas and some of my other friends talk to me about random things all throughout breakfast. Every once in awhile I nod my head or fake laugh at their "jokes". They're too stupid to notice that I'm only staring at Rose while they speak. They've even been too stupid to notice that there's been something going between Rose and I since first year.

I continue to stare at Rose and haphazardly shove food down my throat for the rest of breakfast, which isn't very long since Rose and her sidekick were about an hour late. Everyone begins to leave breakfast.

"Scorpius! Where are you going?" Silas calls out to me.

"Oh, umm I really have to use the bathroom," I say stupidly, while waving them off like it's no big deal, "I'll catch up with you guys in the Common Room."

I rush through the crowds, desperately trying to get next to Rose. I finally come up behind her and we walk side by side. I purposely brush our hands together, craving the tingling sensation that only she can give me. I want to look into her beautiful eyes but I know I can't ruin this moment with eye contact or words. The crowd walks farther down nearing the end of the hallway as her strides match my own. We turn opposite directions, her going to Gryffindor tower, and I to the dungeons. I can't help but look back at her when she's walking away, the slight hop in her step that I constantly tease her for, the way her flaming ruby hair flows behind her. She's so alluring. And she's mine.

I walk confidently back to the Slytherin Common Room, thinking only of her. I'm determined to show her that it's not going to be like last year, where most of our encounters were awkward smiles in the corridors, or small laughs when one of our Professors would make a not-so-funny joke. I want more than what we had last year, I want to make the most of these next three years at Hogwarts.

I just don't know how to show her that I can be the boyfriend she deserves. I know that James and the other girl still doubt me and think that I'm like my father. They think I'm going to hurt her. And if my friends start to notice they way I act towards her, their teasing will be relentless. I'd only be okay with Silas knowing, but Rose doesn't want him to. I wouldn't care about the teasing, but if my other friends know, then their parents might find out and then my parents would find out and it would be a big mess.

Everyone around me expects me to be something I'm not, except Rose. That's what I love most about her. Even after the way my father treated her family, she still constantly gives me second chances. I need to show her that I truly deserve those second chances. I need to clear any doubt that her friend and cousin may be planting in her mind. I need to show her I love her.

I'm not very good at romantic gestures, but if it's for Rose, then I think I could be. I usually try to keep my emotions concealed, but somehow she always finds a way to make me open up and confess my innermost thoughts. My heart and brain have a soft spot for her, a weakness. She reaches in and breaks down my walls. My walls that my family and friends don't even care enough to see through.

She has always been the more romantic one. Whether it's giving me random little gifts or reassuring me that I'm good enough for her and my family, she somehow always knows what to say to make me smile. I need to start this year off right and show her that I can be the romantic one after all.

When I get into the Common Room I sneak upstairs to my room without anyone seeing me. I dig through my trunk until I find some ink and paper. I steal one of Silas' quills and begin to write. The minute my ink hits the paper the words flow out of me. I tell her how much I miss her and tell her to meet me by the tree. The only place we can meet in private, since people are too afraid to get that close to the forest. I continue to let it all out and be honest with her about my feelings when Silas bursts in. I quickly sign my name at the bottom and shove it into one of my nearby folders.
