(POV SCORPIOUS)

       As I walk into the Three Broomsticks I see Al with some of our other mates posted at the bar in a heated conversation. "...super girly; but y'know it's a chance to get with Lyla Chen." Andrew Thomas says as I slid into the seat next to Albus. "As if she would ever go out with you." Kaiden Glasshouse says in between laughs. "You may laugh now but at least I've got the balls to try." Thomas smirked back. "No no you got it all wrong man, Lyla started dating Frank Longbottom over the summer." Al adds to the conversation. "Ah man bull!" Thomas responds as Glasshouse roars with laughter. "So Glasshouse, it'll be Coralie Hopkins of you then." I call to get a rise out him. Glasshouse and Thomas are fun mates to go out and get a few drinks with but they're not the brightest bulbs for sale, and getting them to go off is a game Al and I sometimes play. "That brunette has been leading me on since fifth year! If I don't take her as my date I'll never hear the end of it." he says and I snicker as he starts one his many rants about his on again off again girlfriend. But my mind begins to wonder off, leaving the present conversations wholly, and leads me to a certain redhead and hug that is uninterrupted by another girl named after a flower. My thoughts of a lovely dream world unfortunately are shattered as I am nearly nocked out of my chair by Al. "What the hell!" I yell as he starts laughing. "Well I was trying to ask you how your talk with Rose went, but... seeing as your face looks so stupidly lovesick I'm guessing it went well." he says smirking. "Not that it is any of your business but yes, we're civil." I say rolling my eyes. "Civil? And where is Rose now?" he mocks. "Our relationship is stable, and I imagine she's at some dress shop at this point with your sister and Alice." I respond as this time he rolls his eyes. "I swear if you two don't work your crap out it'll be the death of us all." he says slightly accusatorially. "What's that supposed to mean?" I ask getting  little fired up. "Huh, I mean that you two need to stop acting like children whenever you get into a fight and to actually talk through things." he says sighing. Reasonably Albus is right, I know that, he knows that but my pride can't take the blow of being called a child. "Well fine if I'm so childish then I guess I don't belong in this pub." i stand up to leave. "Oh my gosh, Scorpious stop it. Come on you know I wasn't implying you're a child." he says but my mind is set and stubborn, I reach the door and walk out in the direction of Hogwarts.

(POV ALBUS)

"I swear if you two don't work your crap out it'll be the death of us all." I say slightly accusatorially. "What's that supposed to mean?" he asks getting little fired up. "Huh, I mean that you two need to stop acting like children whenever you get into a fight and to actually talk through things." I says sighing.

I replay the conversation in my head as I rub my temple, dealing with this crap always gives me a headache. "Ok but if your going with Coralie then who am I left with." Thomas asks, him and Greenhouse too absorbed in their conversation to notice what just transpired between Scorpious and I. Knowing I was dealing with an agitated Scorpious I used the all the calm and collectiveness I have learned to not start yelling at him all the things that have been on the tip of my tongue for a while now...

"I mean that you're a ticking time bomb of emotions. You're bound to blow any moment and when you do well... we already know your not good under pressure with the whole Ethan fiasco. You're simple miscommunication, misinterpretations lead to you nearly losing her altogether! If two would just shut up, swallow your prides, and listen to each other you could be through this whole mess! For crying out loud you two have been eye f-ing since forever, just get together already! You both are so blind and ignorant that you refuse to see or accept that the other likes you! Scorpious you dumb bimbleton, if you don't tell Rose how you feel you will literally never get any where! You have to communicate with other people in order for them to understand you! And if you continue to screw this up I know for a fact Rose, broken hearted, will move on; because her stupid Gryffindor bravery extends to anything she sets her mind but you! She is so completely ready to accept the potential fallout that could possibly occur that she won't allow herself to see threw your awful flirting or bad attempts at 'wooing' and believe you may feel the same way. And where does that leave me? Her cousin, you best friend? It leaves me to pick up the pieces of you both left behind! For years I've played messenger boy for you two and I'm sick of it! You need to work threw your emotions like adults and come to a consensus that doesn't leave you wondering and broken hearted. If you tow don't learn to communicate, not only is your chance with her gone, but our friendship, the three of us, would be over. Without communication you cannot have a relationship, let alone a friendship. I hate watching you two struggle over your emotions because I love you both so much and I'm tired of watching you both tear each other apart with unintentional gestures of jealousy. Go talk to her, go and figure your crap out, because I am not you owl. No matter what the end result is I know that our friendship is strong enough to get through it."
