My Life is a Box Full of Surprises (Scorpius and Rose)

Chapter 13 "Secrets & Valentines" - part 2

Told you I would upload when my exams finished :)

Just a heads-up, this chapter there is some... sexual containts and a lot of fluff. What can I say? It's - supposely - Valentine's Day!

Anyway, hope you enjoy and do leave your thoughts of the story so far on the comments section, it would make me pretty happy.

Chapter 13 - part 2

The rest of the day I couldn't concentrate, which is very un-Rose like, but I couldn't help it! I learned so much in so little time.

You asked for it

Shut up. I mentally rolled my eyes at my subconscious mind... Am I really arguing with myself? That never happens!

That's because you were never one to do stupid things... and you listened to me.

Again, shut up! It's official, I've gone mad.

When the last class finished I thought I could finally get some rest and put my thoughts in order, but Fred reminded me we had quidditch practice. Joy.

Is Fred the only one from our family allowed to have a normal love life? I mean, he is with Emily for about 2 years now, his parents love her, her parents love him, both their parents like each other, no conflicted feelings, no need for me to know about their sex life, it's a bloody perfect relashionship! Even Vic had troubles with Teddy - him being older and all - so why is Fred the only one who doesn't have troubles?

Urgh! Life is a bitch

And you sound like a bitch. Be happy for your cousin!

 I am! You know what? I'm not discussing with myself anymore.

After practice I was rightfully exausted. Took a shower and almost skipped dinner but Roxy and Nikky wouldn't let me saying I would get hungry in the wee hours of the morning. Did they not remember we sleep in the same room and I could very much murder them in their sleep? Nah... they are probably right, I really am my father's daughter, wouldn't be able to sleep properly without a full stomach.

When I finally laid in my 4-poster... I couldn't sleep. I almost shouted in frustration. Some good couple of hours later sleep hasn't arrived yet (much to my pleasure - see the sarcasm?). Everyone else was sleeping and the room was quiet… or so I thought. I heard someone moving in her bed and then footsteps. The door opened and closed soon after. Assuming whoever got up had gone downstairs I risked a peck outside. 3 of the 5 beds (a/n: there are 5 6th year griffindor girls, Rose, Nikky, Roxy and two others that are not really friends with them. They are not important) could be heard the soft breathing of my sleeping roomates, but the bed opposite to mine was empty.

Roxy was the one who sneaked out.

I pondered whether or not should I go after her but I decided against it, I couldn’t summon the strengh to get out of bed. I waited for her for about 5 minutes, then, right on a cue, sleep overcame me.

********************************************************

Days passed by and I didn’t confront anyone else. Al must’ve told Karen he confessed to me and now they are both back to normal, though no one mentions what they did. Karen tried but I didn’t want to hear how ‘amazingly gentle’ my cousin was when they had sex.

Lauren did as I said and broke up with her boyfriend and James for me for help. I told him to ask her out in Valentine’s Day and now he have a date.

The only ones who still have a secret are Roxy and Scorpius.

After that night I threw sevral indirects at her and she dodged them all. The result of this indirects was that Roxanne became aware of me knowing something was up so she started being very careful, especially around me, and she spent less and less time with us.
