Light In The Dark- Scorpius Malfoy x Reader

Chapter 1

"Y/N! It's great to see you again!" Helen tottered up to me, giving me a huge hug. "How was your 'very fun' camp?" I laughed.

"Which one?"

"The one you told me about at the end of last year."

"Oh yeah... that one," Helen's puzzled gaze turned bored. "It was so boring. Typical muggle camps." She snorted.

I gave her a pitying look. "So, how's-"

"Here comes Potter. And Malfoy." 

I turned to where she was glaring. Helen folded her arms. She looked so tall out of all of us. She was very tall anyways. 

"Hi Helen," Albus smirked, a mischievous look dancing in his eyes. "Why hello, Potter," The black-haired girl scoffed back, scrunching her face up. 

I never understood why she hated him so much. I turned to Scorpius. "How have you been?" I asked. 

"Absolutely dandy," Scorpius replied, in which Albus laughed. Helen rolled her eyes. "How have you been?" Albus asked Helen. 

"Great. Before you came, at least," she spat. "Maybe we should leave them alone..." said Scorpius quietly. I nodded, before following Malfoy over to the Slytherin table. 

We stood in awkward silence. Scorpius coughed. I cleared my throat, about to say something, until I was intercepted by Professer Mcgonagall. 

"Welcome to Hogwarts, students." She was cut abruptly off by a roar of enthusiasm. I swiftly hurried over to the Ravenclaw table. I saw Emma walking towards me. "Hey!" 

"How are you?" I smiled back. She sat down, placing in front of her a copy of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find them, and turned to me. "I see you've met the dope and Malfoy, have you?"

"Yeah," I looked over to Scorpius and Albus's table. 

 "A dope may be an understatement." Helen said in a flat tone. We did not realise, that, over the noise, Mcgonagall was speaking. Only until Emma saw a rather small student walk up to the Sorting Hat.

There was a silence as everyone waited for it to speak. "HUFFLEPUFF!" 

The Hufflepuff table cheered.

The next student walked up. "RAVENCLAW!" 

Helen cheered, throwing her arms. I cheered too. Emma clapped. "So polite," I rolled my eyes. Helen huffed, her gaze fixed on the next student. 

"SLYTHERIN!" 

I spotted Albus cheering enthusiastically, and Scorpius clapping shyly. I blushed. Emma looked at me. "Are you... blushing?" She followed my gaze over to Scorpius.

"Oooh," she realised, smirking.

"RAVENCLAW!" Helen cheered and clapped, turning to me. "Oh, does she have a small crush on Scor-Scor?" She smirked.

"No! And don't call him that!" I blurted, looking away and back up at the Sorting Hat. 

"Defensive... eh?" Emma teased. I ignored her, and kept on looking at the Sorting Hat. 

"GRYFFINDOR!" It screamed. 

There was a huge cheer from the Gryffindor table. 

Without thinking, I turned over to look at Scorpius again. Scorpius's gaze locked with mine. I blushed, glancing away. But Scorpius's gaze stayed on me.

We entered the dorm. I looked sideways at a window. The sun was slowly setting, it's rays shrinking. I stretched, flopping into my bed. 

Instantly, my mind traveled to Scorpius. I sat up and shook my head. I can't like him, right?  My face scrunched up in exasperation. 

But he's so cute when he's- 

"Y/N!" Emma called, patting her bed. "Come sit next to me!" 

"Okay," I ducked my head as I walked over to her bed, sitting down next to her. 

Emma smirked. I knew what was coming. "So... what are your feelings for.... a particular Malfoy?" 

"No! We're just friends."

"Just friends?" Helen sauntered over, sitting down on the other side of me. "Come one! You're ganging up on me!" I whined.

"Hey Helen, what's with you and Albus?" Emma looked across me and at Helen.

"Nothing! I hate him!" Helen spat, clenching her fists. "Right... right..." I rolled my eyes.

"I do!" She said unconvincingly. "Hey guys, do you wanna play cards?" Emma asked, taking a pack from under her bed. "Sure!" Helen clapped her hands, sitting further in so we had room.

I turned around. "I'm not going to play, thanks," I told them quietly. "I'll be on my bed." 

As I walked to my bed, I heard Emma's quiet voice. "Probably day-dreaming about Scorpius."

I blushed, lying down on my bed. I tried not to, but my thoughts drifted to Scorpius.

Scorpius Malfoy...
