Quote of the Chapter: Never lose a holy curiosity - Unknown.

♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

"I want to be a Dragon, Mummy!"

"Why, baby?"

"Because Daddy says it's cool to be dragon, and Daddy is a dragon."

"Daddy is not a dragon, honey. His name just means that."

"What does my name mean, Mummy?"

"Your name means Scorpion."

"Am I a Scorpion?"

"No."

"Then, why did you name me as Scorpion if I'm not a Scorpion?"

"It's the Black Family tradition honey."

"I thought Daddy was a Malfoy?"

"Of course he's a Malfoy, but Gramma Cissa is a Black."

"She's white, Mummy. Not black."

"Black is a family name, Scorp. Like Malfoy, Granger, Zabini, Potter."

"Ohh, so Gramma Cissa is a Black?"

"Yeah, that's right."

"But then why is Daddy a Malfoy and not a Black?"

"It's because girls are to take the boys family name after they are married. Mummy was Hermione Granger before, and now after marrying your Daddy, I became Hermione Malfoy."

"But why is that?"

"It's the tradition, baby. Rules."

"It will sound bad when boys take girls family name. Like Daddy.. Draco Granger. Ew! Or, Blaise Parkinson. ew! Or, Theodore Greengrass. ew! Boys names are much cooler!"

"Well, er, some what like that."

"Anyways, I want to be a Dragon!"

"But why?"

"Because Daddy's name is much cooler than mine!"

"I don't think so, baby. Cuz, I love your name more than Daddy's"

"Really?"

"Really"

"Really really?"

"Really really"

"Really really really?"

"Okay, that's enough. Now tell me what do you want to wear for Halloween this year?"

"I want to be a Dragon!"

"Oh. So, you've been talking about the costume all of this time, huh? Okay, which breed of dragon do you want to be?"

"Scorpius Dragon"

"What?"

"Scorpius Dragon, Mummy.."

"What do you mean?"

"What do you mean when you nod your head yes, but you wanna say no."

"Wait, how do you know this song?"

"Daddy sang it to me the other day. Why, Mummy?"

"Because your daddy serenaded me into marrying him using this song."

"Serenade, Mummy?"

"Wherever I go, he will follow me and all of a sudden will start singing this song.. He wrote it on his own, though."

"That's so cool. I never knew this. Daddy didn't tell me of this before."

"Of course, he didn't. I think he forgot to gloat about this one."

"Gloat, Mummy?"

"Boasting, baby. Gloating means boasting. That's really bad, but Daddy does it just to tease others. He really doesn't mean it."

"Does Grandpa Lu gloat?"

"Yep. It's in the Malfoy line."

"So I gloat?"

"Yeah, sometimes."

"Is it bad?"

"Depends, baby."

"How?"

"The other day you gloated to James that you have the world's best hair-"

"-its because I do! Grandpa Lu, Daddy and I are the Handsome Trio! Like how you, Uncle Harry and Ron are the Golden Trio."

"Was this thought sown by your Daddy?"

"Yeah, and Grandpa Lu said that all the Malfoys are handsome and we ought to form a trio!"

"What is of this Trio?"

"Oh, we wear premium clothes, be all handsome and show-off to peasants!"

"Figures."

"What was that, Mummy?"

"Don't you think it's bad?"

"No. Should I?"

"Like Father, like Son.."

"No, Mummy, it's 'like grandpa, like Daddy, like son'. "

"Anyways, shouldn't you be taking a bath after playing with Tiger?"

"No."

"Young man, get your cute butt up the stairs and take a bath."

"Is my butt cute, Mummy?"

"Of course, yes, baby you're all cute. Don't tell Daddy I said that, he'll be so jealous of you."

"But, Daddy says men are NOT cute. They are handsome."

"Of course, men are handsome."

"Then why did you call me cute? I'm a man, so you should call me handsome."

"Even your butt?"

"Yes, even my butt."

"Here it goes: Young man, get your handsome butt up the stairs and take a bath."

"Okay, Mummy!"

"Good boy. Now go, you stink!"

"Mummy?"

"Yes, baby?"

"Can I be a Dragon?"

"Okay, but you gave to tell me the specific breed so that I can get your costume ready.."

"Scorpius Dragon."

"There is no such thing as Scorpius Dragon."

"It is not a thing, Mummy, it's a dragon."

"There is no such breed of dragon as Scorpius Dragon. Your daddy fooled you, baby."

"But, it has platinum blonde scales just like me, and has grey eyes just like me, and it breathes fire NOT like me."

"A personalised one. Okay. I'll get it ready."

"Thank you, Mummy! You're the best!"

"You're welcome, Scorp. Now go and take a bath before Daddy comes home and finds his handsome son all muddy and dirty."

"Okay, Mummy!"

Hermione sighed deeply and shook her head smiling lightly. In a few minutes, she heard the sound of water running, upstairs ,indicating that Scorpius is in the bath.

Her son.. is a very curious bee..
