Scorpius watched Lily pick at her food, she loved salad. She was like a little rabbit.
He felt Hugo watching her as well, and frowned. It was noticable that something was wrong but she wouldn't tell. Maybe she would talk to Rose or Grey. Maybe she would talk to Hermione.
Lily stood, pushing away her food and walking upstairs, Scorpius didn't have to think twice, following her upstairs and to her room. She turned to see him, frowning and slamming the door in his face. "Lily, come on. Let me in."
"Go away!"
"Please, what's wrong?"
Lily opened the door, looking down. He picked up her chin, "Oh, Lily."
She was crying, her little raven clasp in her hand. He hugged her as she cried, her arms wrapping around him. "I miss him," she sobbed.
"I know, I know," he said, rubbing her back.
He heard footsteps and turned to see Rose, her eyes wide. She walked up to Lily, smiling. "What happened?"
"Her dad."
Rose smiled sadly, hugging her. Scorpius let go, letting Rose take over. He knew Lily would soon cry herself to sleep, she always did. This is what made Christmas hard on her. She missed her father.
After a while, Lily did cry herself to sleep and Rose stood, trying to pick Lily up. He just smiled, picking her up and carrying her into her room. Lily's room was organised, like always. Books perfectly stacked, bed made, papers organized and pictures tacked up.
Scorpius laid her on the bed, looking back at Rose, who was rubbing her arm, standing in the doorway. "Will she be alright?"
"Fine, but she needs a friend. I'm more like a brother."
She nodded, looking down, biting her lip. He walked to her, looking down at her for a moment, and leaving.
Scorpius sat in the library, reading his book, when Grey poked her head in the room. "Where's Lily?"
"Asleep."
"I'll go wake her!"
"Draco Dormiens Nunquam Futius," he said, smirking.
"Huh?" she asked, cocking her head to the side.
"Never poke a sleeping dragon. It's Latin."
"Oh. I forgot. Wait, did you just call Lily a dragon?"
"That I did, she is like one."
Grey smiled, "True. But Dad's name means dragon in Latin?"
He stood, looking down at her, winking. "Yes, but that's just between you and me."
She nodded, running off.
