Scorpius Malfoy; Just friends

Graduation

Sorry I'm like way too lazy to write year 7 full on, so I just went straight for their graduation, only I have no idea how a Hogwarts graduation goes so I'll just make something up so don't kill me if something's wrong!

I was left alone inside my dorm, my other dormmates had already gone downstairs, I just couldn't say goodbye to the place.. My dark green suitcases were stacked up on my bed and it just made me depressed really. I've lived here for the past seven years and now, it's gone.. I'll get a new apartment, get a job, find a life and it makes me so bloody terrified.

They say good things take time, but I second that. Good things are there waiting to be used, you just gotta have the nerves and use them. I've gone through so many great times I can hardly remember all of them.. But I know I had those times with my greatest friends in the world, Scorp and Al.

I walk up to the long mirror hanging on the wall, little things written on it like messages, or notes of how many guys Michelle has slept with and I chuckle at the memories. I straighten out my graduation gown with my hands and look into the mirror at my reflection.

Messy curly hair, big eyes, a very short girl, yup that's me.

Then my mom walks into the room and witnesses me wearing my long, black, graduation gown. She brings her hand to her mouth, like she's forcing back a sob. "Mom.." I say softly, before walking up to her and hugging her tightly, "I'm sorry, it's just that, you've grown so much my girl." She says breaking away from the hug and tucking a loose strand of hair behind my ear.  I chuckle at her statement, "I'm still 5'4 but alright." She shakes her head with a small smile tugging at her lips, "I meant your personality, it has absolutely grown over the past years." She says, new tears starting to grow in the corners of her eyes. "In a positive way?" I ask her with a small smile, "A very positive way.. And darling you have some cake in the corners of your mouth." She says, I laugh and wipe the residence of the cake away. "All better now."

Then the door opens abruptly and Scorp walks in. "Harley, it's almost time! You coming?" I nod my head, "I'll be there in a sec." He smiles at me and my mom before exiting and closing the door. My mom fixes my hair one last time before she kisses me on my cheek. "You can do it." She says grabbing my hand, "Thank you so much mom." I say, giving her hand a light squeeze.

"Scorpius Malfoy!" MacGonagall calls out, my yells and cheering were loud to say the least, since my last name starts with an 'A' I was first, basically what happens is: you walk to the teacher of your house and get your diploma, together with a firm handshake. Scorp walks up to Slughorn and retrieves his diploma. He throws his hands up and screams "I'm finally done bitches!" I chuckle and yell a 'Hell yeah' after him.

After a while it's Al's turn to be called to the stage and I cheer him on loudly, "That's my boyfriend!" I yell, receiving some weird glances but hey it's my graduation I can do whatever the hell I want to do, and if I wanna cheer on my boyfriend then I can. 

Scorpius, who's sitting next to me, shighs deeply. "And now the real chaos begins." He mummers, but his smile stills visible "I still don't know what to apply for as a job." He says softly, "You'll figure it out Scorp." I say giving him a quick hug, he smiles at me. "I'm sure they'll let you become a teacher with grades like that." He says with a smirk, "Don't tell anyone but I applied for the job of Care of magical creatures at Ilvermorny." I whisper, his eyes widen. "But that's in America.." He whispers, "Yeah, I know. But don't worry I'll come back every break. At least if I get the job..." "If that's what you want, I'm sure you'll get it." He says with a smile, "Always hang on to what you want, right?" I say to him, repeating the motto he's used for the past 2 years. "Right."

"I can't believe we graduated." Says Albus with a smirk whilst kissing me shortly, "I know, it's insane to even think about it." I sigh whilst I walk down the familiar halls one last time, "I'm going to miss our days here.." I mumble before intertwining my hand with Albus'. "We'll be apart a lot more, that's for sure. I was wondering, would you maybe like to get an apartment with me?" He asks me carefully, I stop in my tracks, suddenly the ground became a very interesting thing to look at.
