I just want to try out on writing a Harry Potter fanfiction that's why I'm here right now.

 

Chapter 1

 

 

It was breakfast time and the Great Hall was filled with students. Third year Scorpius Malfoy was sitting down on the Slytherin table eating quietly while his friends Aloysius Zabini, Elvira Nott, Lance Parkinson and Selina Crabbe chattered happily.

 

Just then the flapping of wings were heard as the owls swooped down on the students to deliver their mail. The four friends except Scorpius looked up to watch if his falcon was there to deliver something to him.

 

 

“S, I think your daily rose is here.” Aloysius said to his friend as he watched a snowy white owl descend infront of Scorpius holding a rose in its mouth. The owl dropped it infront of Scorpius and stared at the blond haired boy as if pleading for him to take notice of the gift.

 

 

Scorpius stared back at it before finishing his meal and picking up his bag to walk out of the Great Hall, glancing at the Gryffindor table where the fifth year James Potter was staring at him. The red rose lay untouched on the table. The white owl hooted unhappily before flying off. The four watched as Scorpius left, a worried expression on their faces.

 

Another person was staring at the blond boy as he left, a thoughtful look on his face. Albus Severus Potter got up and followed Scorpius.

 

“Hey…um Malfoy….Um Scorpius wait up..” Al called out.

 

The blond stiffened when he heard Al call him, instead of stopping or slowing down however he quickened his pace. Ignoring Al's call for him to stop.

 

The brunette haired boy, seeing that the other wasn't going to stop, broke into a run until he caught up with the blond. He held tight to the other's arm as he tried to catch his breath.

 

Scorpius took his arm away from Al and stared icily at the gasping boy. “What the hell do you want Potter?”

 

“I was just…just going to ask if…..if you're alright?” Albus answered while he clutched his chest.

 

“Why do you even care Potter? It's not as if we're friends or anything like that, or do you think we are?”The blond asked as he looked at Al.

 

 

“It's just that you're..ah you're my…um you're..” Al stuttered trying to find a correct answer while trying to evade spilling something out.

 

 

“I'm you're what exactly?” the blond questioned getting tired of this Potter as well as the other one, who was constantly bugging him.

 

 

“You're my classmate that's all.” Al finally finished quite lamely.

 

“So, you followed me out here to ask if I'm alright because you care for me as a classmate?”

 

Albus nodded.

 

Scorpius snorted at this. “Nice answer Potter.” He was about to walk away when he stopped remembering something. “Since as a classmate you want to know if I'm alright, I'm not alright. You know why?”

 

Al shook his head though he thinks that he has an answer to that.

 

“It's because that annoying brother of yours won't stop bugging me. So why don't you, as a caring classmate to me keep you're annoying brother away. While you're at it why don't you stay away from me as well.” With that the blond walked away leaving a sad brunette behind.

 

 

 

 

“Hey Al what's wrong?” Rose asked as they trudged up to Hogwart's from Hagrid's Hut where they do their lessons of Care of Magical Creatures which was just dismissed.

 

“Nothing's wrong I'm fine.” Al said looking down.

 

“If that's what you look like when you're fine I don't think I want to see what you look like when you're extremely happy.” Rose replied.

 

Al didn't reply and he didn't have to because a commotion started to happen at the hallway.

 

“Just give it back to him.” An angry voice said coming probably from one of the people causing the commotion.

 

That voice was really familiar and Al didn't think twice when he pushed his way through the crowd to get a better glimpse of what is happening. He gaped as he saw his brother and his friends harassing Scorpius and Aloysius.

 

James was holding up in his hand a wand which was trying to be reached by Aloysius who was jumping up and down. The crowd seemed to be loving what was happening as no one tried to stop the older years from harassing the younger ones.

 

“Give….it…..back..” Aloysius said with every jump.

 

“Give it back to him Potter.” Scorpius commanded.

 

“No way angel.” James replied “Not until you agree to go out with me to Hogsmeade this weekend.”

 

A blush formed on Scorpius' cheeks at what James said. Some of the people in the crowd cheered while some seemed puzzled while others were urging Scorpius to accept the offer. Albus however was angry at his brother for putting the blond on the spot.

 

 

“Why would I want to go out with you?” Scorpius asked trying to keep his voice neutral.

 

 

James looked at him thoughtfully. “Because you want me to return your friend's wand.”

 

“No way.” Aloysius said, he had finally stopped jumping when James said his proposition. “There is no way I'm going to let Scorpius go out with you wand or no wand.” The dark haired boy turned to his friend. “Come on S I'm just going to buy a new one or borrow another until I can have a replacement.”

 

James frowned he didn't expect the Zabini boy to do that, but he wasn't going to let this chance to date the blond go out the window. “Are you scared Malfoy?” The crowd was getting excited at the way this was going.

 

The blond stopped walking when he said that, he turned towards James who tried to keep a passive look on his face while his insides were getting tingly. “I beg your pardon?”

 

“I asked you if you are scared?”

 

“Of course I'm not.” Scorpius replied.

 

“I think you are.” James taunted.

 

“What would I be scared off?” Scorpius asked.

 

“I think you're scared that you would like the date and would want another one.” James said offhandedly.

 

“I can't believe how big your head is. You are such an arrogant prick.” The blond retorted.

 

“Go out with me Malfoy.” James leaned closer to the blond. “Prove me wrong.”

 

Scorpius didn't take a step back when the older boy leaned closer. “You're on.”
