To Scorpius and Rose's dismay, August went by in a flash. But, before summer had to come to an end, Scorpius and Rose made sure they spent more alone time together. Scorpius had invited  Rose over to Malfoy Manor multiple times for dinner and a round of Quidditch. Even once, it was late, and Rose fell asleep there. It was the second time that Scorpius and Rose slept together. Let's just say that Rose panicked and woke early that morning, hopefully, to Apparate home and see that her parents weren't up yet. Scorpius tried to get her to stay by putting an arm on top of her. It was very hard for Rose to leave. She had been resting her head on his bear chest, and he was all warm. But, if she didn't leave, then she would NEVER hear the end of it from her parents. Hold on, let me rephrase that. She would NEVER hear the end of it from Ron. So, unfortunately, she apparated home, and to her luck, her parents weren't up yet.

But, they weren't always that lucky. Another time, when Rose invited Scorpius to her house for dinner, he ended up staying pretty late. After Scorpius beat Ron at Wizard's Chess, Ron disappeared out of the room, mumbling something. So, this left Scorpius and Rose alone. After a night of flying around in the night sky on their brooms, and a bit of snogging, Rose and Scorpius went back inside. Before they could sense this, they had both fallen asleep on the couch. Again, they were very unlucky this time. Ron woke up that morning, and walked down to his living room to find his daughter and Scorpius all wrapped up in one another, sleeping. It also didn't help the situation that Scorpius's shirt was across the room on the floor. So, automatically Ron started scolding very loudly, and it woke Scorpius and Rose up out of a dead sleep. Long story short, Scorpius quickly picked his shirt up, and slid it on really fast, and dissaparated. When he did this, at this point, Hermione was in the room scolding Ron for walking in on them.

Anyways, today was September 1st. You know what that means. Summer was now over, and it was time to go back to school. This had been one of the best summers of Rose and Scorpius's lives. Other than, of course. Draco's Dark Mark incident, but that was resolved nicely! Summer wrapped up nicely. With the new and final school year rolling in, Scorpius and Rose were excited to see what it had in store. They knew that they were probably going to be busier than ever, with now Head Boy and Girl duties, Quidditch Practice's because they were now both Captains, and intense N.E.W.T studying. These were even more important than O.W.L's. You can imagine all the library sessions that Scorpius and Rose would have right now.

Scorpius woke up early on this new, autumn morning. He quickly showered, and changed into his school uniform. He was required to do this since he was supposed to represent Slytherin, and was required to wear his school uniform as the Slytherin Head Boy. He then pinned on his little Head Boy badge, and his Slytherin Quidditch Captain badge. After getting changed, he packed his stuff up. It was easier than ever now. Since he was 17, he could just do it all with the flick of his wand. He then placed an Extendable Extension charm on one of his bags. He took his and Rose's Firebolt 2's and put them in there. He still had to hide Rose's Firebolt from her for another month. But, with this extension charm on this backpack, you could never tell that there were two racing brooms inside. It was prefect.

After he was done packing, Scorpius headed downstairs to grab a bite to eat before they had to leave for King's Cross. As he took a bite into a granola bar, Scorpius looked over the letters from McGonagall one more time. It explained what he all needed to do today as Slytherin Head Boy. It also explained how each house had a set of heads. Scorpius read this multiple times, fully making sure and taking in all the information. By the time he was done, he fully understood all he had to do today.

When Rose woke up that morning, she pretty much did the same thing. She took a shower, brushed her teeth, etc. When she walked back to her room, she changed into her school uniform, and pinned on her new badges. Once she was dressed, with the swish of her wand, she packed all of her belongings that she needed for school into her trunk and bags. She then packed Crookshanks II into his carrier, and took her broom in the other hand, and headed downstairs with all this stuff.
