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

Chapter 24th

OH MY GOD IS THAT AN UPDATE?

Yes my dearies, I am still alive (just barely) and I am also getting my butt kicked tomorrow in my history exam. Why can't I have a history exam on the Second Wizarding War? THAT would make things much easier...

Anyway, I apologize for not updating in... what? 3 weeks? Just so you know, I have it about 7 chapters planned but I don't have time wriiiiiiite. I hate school. I wanna go to Hogwartssssss.

Anyway, please don't hate me. It's not my best chapter, more of a filler kinda long chapter. The next one will be more exciting.

I very much hope you like it.

Without any furtherdue

Chapter 24th

Rose’s Point of View

The process of coming out of the train and going to the car was quick due to my father not having Uncle Harry to chat with for half an hour since my dear uncle is on a meeting with the minister. In less than 10 minutes my family of 4 plus mine and Hugo’s owl were on the air flying to our home.

We got to Godric’s Hallow around 11 in the evening and we were starving. While we waited for my mum to heat dinner Dad and I played a match of Wizard’s Chess and Hugo picked a muggle movie for us to watch. Since my brother and I had just arrived my mum let us eat in the couch while watching the movie. It was a nice film, very interesting, called Journey to the Center of the Earth and I was so eager watching it that I didn’t even noticed when my food was finished. The ending credits started rolling and Dad got up and turned the television off.

“Alright troop, now that you were fed and entertained my duty as a parent is complete for the day. Let’s sleep.” Dad said and since we were super tired we didn’t resist. Dad scooped my sleeping mother in his arms and went upstairs to their room. Hugo stretched and offered me a hand.

“No… I’m too tired to live”

“Come on Rose”

“Can’t – move” I pretended to struggle. He rolled his eyes and lifted me the same way Dad did Mum though I’m sure he did it more gently. “That’s the only advantage of having a little brother who is so tall”

“You forgot strong, gorgeous and intelligent.”

“Ha- ha” I snuggled in his neck and closed my eyes.

“Plus, you’re just too small” He laughed. It was actually impressive, he was caring me like I weighted nothing and climbing the stairs with an soon-to-be-17 year old in his arms effortlessly. He kicked open my bedroom door and dropped me in my comfy bed. “Night Rose”

“Night Hugh” I cuddled with the pillow and fell asleep in my sweat pants and tank top.

I was in a black pit.

I touched my hands to the walls surrounding me. They were wet rocks. Looking up I saw a blinding light and quickly diverted my eyes from it. Where am I? Something touched my hand that was still on the wall. Scared I retreated it, accidentally hitting my body against the opposite wall and pain shot from the area that was hit. More gently I touched the place again and it stung. I lifted my hand to the light. I was dirty with mud and blood, my blood. I gulped down the pain and ran my fingers through my hip. There was a deep gash on the side of my hip going all the way to my belly (right under the bellybutton) and disappearing into my (apparently torn) jeans. What the bloody hell have happened to me?

“Rose!” A voice called over my head.

“Albus?” It hurt to talk but I had to try.
