Their Seventh Year

Rose

I look around the quiddich pitch at my new team. Lilly and Roxann as beaters. Lucy, Fred 2, and Alice as chasers. Hugo as keeper. And me as seeker. We fly through the air. Lilly is flying next to me chattering on and on about how some kid said I'm the best seeker since Harry Potter himself. My ears feel funny and I remind myself to clean them when practice is over. Ive had my ears "pierced" (as the muggles call it) for about two months. Today I wear little red rubies in them. Then Lilly says something that catches my attention.
"Oh yeah, and someone caught Scorpius snooping around in a jewelry store in Hogsmead." Lilly stars on another subject but I cut her off mid sentence.
"What was he doing?" I ask. Lilly smirks.
"I finally found something that interests you, hm? I don't know what he was doing. He wouldn't spill." Lilly says. Then a bludger comes at her and she gets back into the game flying away from me. As I search for the snitch I think about what the heck Scorpius was doing in a jewelry shop. I don't know why it bothers me so match but it dose. Eventually I catch the snitch and practice is over. I go into the changing room and set down my broom. Then I go out and start walking to the castle. Scorpius is waiting my the castle steps for me. I grin when I see him and he grins back.
"Hello, Mr. Malfoy." I say.
"Hello, Miss. Weasley." Scorpius says. "What is the earliest age anyone in your family has been proposed to?" He asks. That's an odd question, I think. But I answer it anyway.
"Eighteen." I say.
"Then I'm going to break the record." Says Scorpius. I'm confused by his comment.
"Huh?" I ask. Scorpius gets down on one knee taking a small box out of his pocket.
"Rose Minerva Granger-Weasley, will you do me the honor of marrying me?" He asks. I fell tears fall down my cheeks. Before I can truly think my answer through I whisper, "Yes" Then louder. "Yes, Yes, Yes!" Scorpius stands slipping a ring on my finger and hugs me tightly. "Thank dear goodness, I thought you would say no." Scorpius whispers. I pull away from the hug.
"Wait, but...My father." I say horrified. My father hates Scorpius.
"I already talked to him. He sounded like he was going to say I couldn't marry you but then your mum stepped up and went on and on about something and he said yes." Scorpius tells me chuckling.
"You're father?" I ask.
"Who do you think bought the ring? He was totally okay with it." Scorpius says. I smile and laugh and hug Scorpius tightly knowing that I will never forget about this moment.
