(Alex Pettyfer as Scorpius Malfoy)
October
"Pooootions!" I chirped in, what i like to think was, a beautiful sing-song melody to the boys, sitting down for breakfast.
"Shut up." Tom grumbled, stuffing bacon into his face, missing his mouth on his first try, leaving a disgustingly greasy trail in its wake.
"What up moody pants?" I asked him, grinning to Scorp who was looking on with suppressed amusement.
"Shut up."
"Aww, you're so mean to me!" I whined, pouting. i shook some cereal into my bowl, feeling a hot glare trained on my face.
"Shut up."
"Why is he so moody?" I asked Johnny who was across the table, holding his head in the same way every one else was around-
Oooooh there hung-over…
duh Elizabeth.
I'm so proud of myself. I have now beaten my previous genius by a light year or two.
"How was the party then? I almost forgot you won against Hufflepuff; the party's a bit delayed though… it did happen like… three days is it now? Yeah three days ago-!" I rambled, happily enjoying their pain in a, albeit,
slightly strange way.
"Oh Merlin, shut up!" Evan moaned.
"Oh yay, you spoke, I thought you were dead for a moment then!" I laughed, Scorp joining in, the only Slytherin around me who didn't get drunk last night.
"Go away Elizabeth!" Tom moaned again.
"No! It's your fault your not as clever as me and don't know any hangover spells…
like me." I heavily hinted, raising an eyebrow.
"Gimmie!" Tom demanded, sticking his hand out in the complete wrong direction.
"Well
duh, if you don't remember I'm T Total… or whatever its called and if you've forgotten, that does mean haven't ever taken a
sip of alcohol - excepting the Christmas champagne with doesn't count -which I pride myself in to this day so obv-."
"Jesus- look if you have nothing to give us go away and stop gloating!" I laughed loudly for no reason, well there was a reason… to annoy them… causing them all to groan and glare at me. I sniffled teasingly and wiped away a tear.
"Oh goodness and none of you have even noticed…" I trailed off, standing up. "Well, I know where I'm not wanted. Be seeing you." I said, giving them a salute. Scorp stood up and slipped under the table so he could walk with me, being the loser that he is and not going over the top like a normal person… or someone called Elizabeth…yeah…
"What didn't they notice?"
"Nothing really, cut my hair- a couple of inches, my fringe is gone-"
"What fringe?"
"Exactly." I replied grinning. "Come on hon, I'll walk you to your next lesson." He rolled his eyes at the nickname but let himself be dragged out of the hall by the hand, sadly refusing to skip with me.
"See you at lunch babes, make sure the others get what they need ok?" I asked Scorp when I dropped him outside Charms, giving me ten minutes to get to Potions.
"Yes
mum." He replied giving me a look. I raised my eyebrow. I hit him across the head.
"Shut up, stop being so cheeky!"
"Ugh, I really do wonder
why some people think were going out your so mum-ish to me it's
painful!" He moaned, I laughed lightly, agreeing with him.
"Yeah I know see you later." I replied, kissing the top of his head, ignoring his squirming and blush as the other Slytherins and Rose laughed, Rose having the decency to hide her laughter. He crossed his arms across his chest and pouted. "
Such a moody boy!" I moaned, ruffling his hair and walking away.
I got in just in time, sliding smoothly next to James who was my partner.
"Where were you?" James whispered through the side of his mouth as I got my books out and sorted my hair out, after it being messed up from the uber fast running it took to get to the dungeons on time.
Despite popular believe, namely from Evan, I do not like being late thus rarely ever am.
Did I even use 'thus' right?
Uhh, i should probably just... yeah... James....
"Embarrassing Scorp." I whispered back, turning to the right page as the Professor told us instructed. A few minutes passed until Professor Daniels set us a task in pairs, a regular occurance.
Yay.
The sarcasm is so painfully obvious, i don't get how you could've missed that... unless you didn't.
"I didn't see you at breakfast." James mumbled, looking up from the sheet of questions we had to answer.
"Yeah, well I was sitting with the boys. I'll sit with you at dinner if you really want? The idiots had a party last night and I need to make sure they're ok at lunch -I know I said I would sit with you lot-,"
"It's ok Elizabeth… sooo… I heard a rumor going around…" James trailed off, handing me the sheet to do a couple of questions and to correct his if anything as wrong.
"Yeah?" I asked, dipping my quill into his ink and writing 'moonstone' neatly on the line.
"That you and Scorp were going o-." But he didn't get to finish, getting cut off with my quiet laughter.
"You should know better than believe that." I told him, glancing up at him to see his relieved expression. "Even
he says I'm more a mother to him than a best friend… which is true but
still…!" James chuckled.
"Yeah… Urm…I was wondering-."
"I'm gonna go to the library later, you can join me if you want, it feels like ages since i last went there." I cut across him. He coughed and nodded, looking slightly anxious yet amused at the whole library thing.
Its not my fault i love the library.
"Oh… sorry were you saying something? Evan says i have this problem where i shamelessly talk over people. Carry on." I confessed, glancing up from the paper.
"It's nothing… you done?" He asked, gesturing to the sheet, stopping me from responding.
"Nearly…clockwise twice and thennnnn… yeah done!" I said holding up the sheet and giving him an
obviously dazzling smile, being the generally dazzling person that I am.
"Good… here you go Professor," He said, handing the sheet to Daniels as he passed. "So… we up for another 'get to know' session tonight then?" James asked, winking. I rolled my eyes.
"Don't you think you've leant enough?" I asked grinning and shaking my head slightly.
"Not at all! I'm yet to learn about your cousins amongst
many things!" He replied grinning at me.
"Potter and Morgan- full marks, well done!" The teacher called from the front, I inwardly grinned, trying not to show i was soo chuffed with the small compliment. "Twenty points to Gryffindor… Weasley and Marks, five out of twenty, terrible… terrible…"
"Which Weasley, sir?" Fred shouted out stupidly.
"Well Weasley, I
assume the Weasley that's working with
Marks." He replied sarcastically. I giggled and saw James grin, giving Fred a look as if to say 'what did you expect?'
"Hello boys." I greeted, smiling evilly.
"What you grinning at?"
"You been in pain then today?" I asked them, they nodded, looking rather morbid. "Brilliant here you go then!" I said, quickly performing the spell on them.
"Marvelous, cheers darling, you really do work wonders!" Tom exclaimed in an exaggerated accent.
"Waaaaait a minute… why are you so happy that we were in pain?" Johnny asked, finally catching on. Scorp beat me, and answered the fools first.
"
Because we didn't invite her to the party like we normally do, dumbasses so she wanted revenge but silently… you should know this by now! It's how she works!" He told them with a mockingly appalled tone. I gave the others a smug look, blowing a kiss to Scorp who caught it and blew one back. They all frowned and looked at me.
"Sorrrrrrry Liz! Forgive us!"
"Yeah… soz babes."
"Wow, that was heartfelt. I forgive
you Tom but not you Ev. That apology was
disgraceful!"
"Hey losers, how's it going?" I asked, jumping onto one of the red sofas next to James.
"Right, first question. What are your cousins' names?" He asked, diving straight into the interrogation. I rolled my eyes.
"You always have to jump straight into the question… no hello… not howdy… oh how sad!" I wailed, ignoring 4's sigh of frustration. "Oh, hey bitch, I almost didn't see you there!" I said smiling at her… with shit loads of sarcasm of course.
"Well, I'm gonna leave if
she's staying." 4 replied, ignoring me.
"Bye then!" James said grinning and turning on me. "Righty… what are your cousins' names?" He asked, putting his legs on my lap as 4 got up and disappeared to the other side of the room.
"Well, there's Michael who's a year younger, irritatingly like a little brother-,"
"Yeah I feel for you." James butted in, giving a meaningful look at Albus who glared back at him. Grinning, I carried on.
"Then there's Mike who's two years younger and MJ, the
sweetest four-year-old you could ever meet and my favorite." I concluded.
"Is it some sort of family tradition… all M's?"
"Yup, don't ask… and I'm allowed to call him my favorite because they're not siblings, they're cousins. So it's not mean!"
"Still a
bit mean though." Roxanne interjected.
"Na-ah, I had a big debate about it with Evaaaa- no one." I corrected myself stupidly, remembering that none of them
particularly like the boys. They all raised their eyebrow at my apparently obvious miscommunication but didn't say anything more about it.
All being Roxanne, Willow, Fred, James, Al and Rose.
"Next question?" I asked.
"If you've forgotten… that's not how it works, you ask one of us a question first." James reminded me, scoffing at my idioiticness… is that a word? Well… now it is.
"Oh yeah… hmm… I'm gonna choose…" I trailed off, looking at them all. "Rooooos-Roxanne." Rose looked distinctly relieved and Roxanne very wary. My questions couldn't be that bad… could they?
Probably… I am a question
machine.
Hard-core.
Yeaaah….
"Go on then!"
"Right… Roxy… this is kinda a dirty question but I was wondering if anyone else had so… have you ever walked in on… a boy," Roxanne was narrowing her eyes as if to decipher what I was going to say before I did. "Urm… you know…tickleee…?" Roxanne and Willow burst out laughing, tears in their eyes, while the others had looks of complete and utter disgust on their faces.
"Oh, Merlin Elizabeth… no, luckily I haven't… Jesus you're so strange!" Roxanne informed me truthfully, still laughing with Willow.
"Wait… who did you walk on while they were wanking?" Willow asked; ignoring the fact I changed the word to a nicer one.
"My cousin," I told them, wrinkling my nose. "He didn't see me but…"
"You saw him?" James finished laughing. I glared at him.
"Yes… unfortunately." I told them. "But I'm not telling you which one or when!"
"Oh yeah, because we can't guess!" Roxanne put in sarcastically.
"Was it MJ? It can't possibly have been Michael after all!" James said, also sarcastically.
"Next question please!" I shouted out over their laughter.
"Hey Elizabeth... how was your sleep?"
"Fantabulous!" I told James, filling my plate with food and pouring myself some pumpkin juice.
"Good."
"How was yours?" I asked him, looking up from pouring golden syrup on my bacon… it's so tasty! Don't judge!
"He had a bad dream." Fred told me grinning.
Hmm… there seems to be some sort of private joke here…
I hate private jokes.
"Oh yeah? 'Bout what?" I asked him, cutting my bacon up because 4 wasn't around… I'm not
usually that bad at eating but I would do
anything to annoy her.
"Nothing." James grumbled, ungracefully shoving a waffle into his mouth… yeah a
whole waffle. I felt my face morph into a disgusted one as I looked at him.
"Goodness, you're disgusting." I commented. He turned to look at me, raising an eyebrow.
"Thanks." He replied dryly. I whacked him across the head when he went back to his food drawing a laugh from Fred, as he was the only other one around us. "Heeey!" He moaned.
"Stop being a drama queen-"
"King
actually-"
"No
queen because your acting like such a little girl. Whats wrong?" I asked him, putting a hand in front of Fred's face when he started to laugh again.
"He's sad because-!"
"Did I
say you could speak
Frederick?" I asked him. He pouted and looked at the table mumbling a 'no'.
"Nothings wrong Eliza-!"
"Fine then… if you won't tell me I'll have to get it out of Fred." At the mention of his name, he looked up grinning.
"Can I speak now?" He asked. I raised my eyebrow. "Ok then, well he was upset and stressing last night because you didn't come back yesterday when you said you were gonna visit your snake- your friends." He corrected when I gave him a look.
"Really? Are you that over protective over me?" I asked him. He shrugged a yes. "Oh well get over it." I shrugged, indifferent, not really caring. It probably looked quite mean. I'm not
that mean usually.
Is
meanly a word? Yeah i think it is.
"Isn't meanly a weird word?" I asked them.
"No." They said in perfect unison.
"Yeah it is look: meanly, meanly, meanly, meanly, meanly-!"
"Alright! Yeah it's weird.
You're weird."
"No,
your weird!"
"If I wanted my own comeback, I would've wiped it off
your chin!" James replied like the dumbass he is. Fred burst out laughing, practically howling as tears squeezed merrily from his eyes.
"I'm
so gonna use that one!" He chortled, still laughing.
"Riiiiight, ok then moody pants, you're a dumbass then."
"Awwww that was mean!"
"Mean… or
meanly?" I asked smartly, putting emphasis on the 'meanly' by leaning forwards slightly.
"Mean." He replied scoffing at my
idioiticness.
See it is a word!
"…or meanly?"
"Shut up."
"…or meanly."
"You're going to die one day."
"…or meanly?"
"You make no sense!" James said pretending to cry like a baby.
"Cudgycoo!" I cooed squeezing his cheeks.
"Bye then." He replied oh so smartly, getting up to leave our fantabulous discussion.
"…OR MEANLY?"
"SHUT UP!"
"NO!"
"He's gone Lizabeth!" Fred told me with mock remorse.
"That's new."
"Yeah do you like it?" Fred asked grinning. I picked up my bag and gave Fred a pitying look.
"No Frederick."
