Lily Snape New

Sorry for my bird attacking you

Scorpius sat on his broom, high in the air.

It was nice up here, he looked over at Lily, who was leaning back on her broom, looking at the clouds. They were still waiting for Draco and Hermione to get back. He looked down at Rose, who was chatting happily with Grey down on the ground, Hugo flying high above.

He had extra brooms still in the shed but Rose and Grey decided to just sit.

He chuckled, looking out at the house. It would be getting dark soon and he wondered when his father would be home. A better question was what would happen if mum was cheating on father? Would he completely cut them off from her or would they still see her?

"Oy, Malfoy!" Hugo yelled above him.

He looked up, smirking. "Yes, Weasley?"

"Is that your father?" he yelled, pointing at the gates.

He looked and realized it was, in his arms was a sleeping Hermione Weasley. "He's got mum!" Hugo yelled, starting to fly over but Scorpius's arm caught him.

"Hang on, Hugo. There might be a reason. She's sleeping. She could've fainted or passed out."

He growled but flew to the ground, Scorpius and Lily behind him. They threw their brooms down, running to the Manor, Draco and Hermione were already inside. Grey and Rose quickly followed, sensing their brothers' distress.

They quietly opened the door to see Draco disappear into a spare bedroom on the top floor. They ran inside, quickly running after the two adults.

In the room, Draco laid Hermione on the bed, pulling the dark green covers up to her chin. "We'll resolve this later," he whispered to the sleeping witch, taking out his wand and putting a silencing spell around her.

"Mr. Malfoy?" Hugo asked.

Draco turned, his eyes wide. "Children. I thought you were outside."

"We saw you come back," Scorpius said quickly.

"I see."

"Is mum alright?" Rose asked, poking her head in the door.

"She'll be fine, she's just a little bit shocked."

"Why?" Hugo blurted. Scorpius knew exactly why. So mum was cheating on father.

"It is not my place to tell you. Now, it's getting late. Rose and Hugo, you will be staying here for the night. In the morning I will most likely be taking you home."

"Where will we sleep?" Rose asked.

"There are enough spare rooms here," Draco answered shortly, slipping past the children and closing the door.

"Ok, when will mum be home?" Grey piped up.

Draco froze and so did Scorpius. Uh oh. "I don't know Grey, but most likely by the time you are in bed." Scorpius was surprised how calm his father was.

"Oh, ok."

Grey turned to Rose, "Do you want to see my room?"

"Sure!" Rose replied, following Grey into her room.

Scorpius took a deep breath, walking to his room, he heard Lily and Hugo behind him. He quickly slipped into his room, searching for a piece of parchment. He found it and grabbed his quill.

"What are you doing?" Lily asked, peeking over his shoulder.

"Nothing you need to see."

Hugo chuckled, leaning against the wall.

He quickly wrote:

Dear Belle,

It's Scorpius, something's happen. We need to talk.

He rolled it up, giving it to his owl. "Belle Weasley," he said, opening his window.

The owl hooted and flew off.

"Bell?" Hugo asked.

"Yes, she's a close friend."

Hugo nodded, walking up to Lily. "Do you know what's going on?"

Scorpius bit his lip, "No."

Lily raised an eyebrow but didn't speak. She shook her head, sitting in his chair.

Mutante squawked in the corner and Lily went to him. She took the bird out, petting it.

The bird flew off of her hand, straight at Hugo, who yelled in surprise. The bird started attacking him but she quickly grabbed him, Scorpius quickly making sure Hugo was ok. "Bloody hell, what's wrong with your bird?!"

"I'm so sorry! He didn't attack me and Scorpius!"

"What's going on?" Rose asked, poking in his room.

She had discarded her coat and sweater and now wore a green T-shirt, her black rock wash jeans and black shoes. Slytherin colors, he thought with a smirk.

"My bird attacked him," Lily said, looking down.

"Are you ok?" she asked her brother.

"I'll be ok," he said, smiling at his sister.

"Ok. We're going to get something to eat. Do you want to come."

He shrugged. "Sure."

Grey smiled rushing off. Hugo left first but before Lily could, he grabbed her arm. "We need to talk."
