Like Dancing Into New Beginnings: Scorose

New Years Eve

I wake up early on the morning of New Years Eve. I can't go back to sleep after going to the toilet and throwing up, so I decide to shower and get dressed. I wear black fleece-lined leggings and an oversized, pink long sleeved shirt. I wear a pair of pink fluffy socks and put my hair is a loose side braid. I look in the mirror and smile. Not bad. I go downstairs, expecting to be the only one awake, but I see my mum in the kitchen with a cup of coffee. It smells so good, and I can't have any. 

"Hi Rose! You're up early." She says.

"Couldn't get back to sleep."

"I understand. Scorpius went for a walk by the way. He wanted to be alone for awhile, I guess."

"Okay." I reply, sitting down at the table.

"It's New Years Eve." Mum says. 

"I know." I say.

"Anything special planned?" She asks.

"No, I don't think so. Although... I talked to Scorpius the other day and we were talking about stuff. He said he wanted to be right with me when the clock strikes twelve." I say. 

"Mmmhmmm. That's probably best..." I look at her. She seems weird. 

"What is it Mum?" I ask. 

"Oh, just that the next day is a Cannons match." She smiles. I roll my eyes. Dad loves the Chudley Cannons almost as much as his family. It's ridiculous. 

"Yeah..." I say. Suddenly I feel arms around me. 

"Hi." Scorpius says. I smile.

"Hi. What's up?" I ask.

"Just went for a walk. How are you feeling?" He sits down in a chair next to me.

"Alright. I wasn't tired when I woke up, but now I am. I might go back to sleep." I say with a yawn. 

"Okay, go ahead. I'll see you when you when you wake up."

"Sleep as much as you can, Rosie. You'll need it." Mum says. Scorpius gives me a kiss, and I head back upstairs to sleep. It's only seven in the morning anyway. 

"Rose, get up. It's almost noon and you are still sleeping. We have places to be!" A very pregnant Victoire shakes me awake. I open my eyes,  still drowsy. 

"Vic, hold on, I'll be ready soon." I grumble. I get out of bed, take one look at my wrinkly clothes and decide to change. I put on a pair of skinny jeans, a teal shirt, and put put my hair in a high ponytail. I run downstairs and put on my snow boots and my coat.

"I'm ready Victoire!" I call.

"Finally!" Victoire comes downstairs, slowly. She is very pregnant now, and due any day now. 

The boys are planning on meeting Victoire and I in a few hours. Teddy and Scorp will be doing something together, although I don't know what. 

"Now, let's shop." Victoire says when we get to Diagon Alley. I roll my eyes. I've never been a huge fan of shopping. It's okay, but I definitely prefer reading at home. We walk into a fairly new shop, which is called Witches Fashion. It opened last year, and business is booming. They have pretty good clothes. 

"Here, try on this!" Victoire tells me, handing me three outfits. We have only been here for 10 minutes! I roll my eyes and go into a changing room. The first outfit is too small. The pants are short and the shirt is a little small for my tiny belly already. I would only be able to wear it for a little while. The second outfit is way too big. The pants are too loose around the waist and the shirt is kind of ugly. The third outfit fits pretty well, but it just isn't my style. I come back in it and tell Victoire, and she put them back with a sigh. This goes on for an hour or two, before I find two outfits I like that fit, and she find a few things too. We pay and go home to drop off our stuff.
