Silencio
I am lost.
I am his.

I am love.

Corinda smiled, laughed and almost died in his arms at the dance floor.
"We can take it to your dorm, I don't think Albus would mind sleeping outside…" she whispered in his ear. A whisper that would make any hormonal boys leg bend by desire and lust. What was wrong with him?
His legs didn't bend, his skin didn't shiver. There was nothing.
His eyes were fixed on a point behind Corindas left ear, the gray dressed red-headed girl sat there and stirred at a little note with something that was tears in his eyes. Their eyes met; there was fear in her eyes – as she was holding his heart in her hand. He felt ashamed but didn't let go of the familiar blue eyes and he tried to project every feeling towards her with his glance. She stood up, still with her eyes fixed on his and started to walk away and throw the paper she was holding at the floor. As she ran through the Great Halls door she gave Albus a tear-filled stir.
Albus.
These next things were so Rose Weasley he thought as he ran after her leaving Corinda standing in her red dress yelling after him. He picked up the tiny note to see if it was what he feared it was.
Damn it Albus. As passed Albus who stood at the end of the door he cursed a smiling Albus and ran down the stairs to try to catch up with her. He was actually making a run for it, a thing he hadn't done since the library event. And that ended sweetly now didn't it Malfoy?
"Rose, wait" he yelled oblivious that she would turn around and a spell shot towards him and hit him on the chest.
Rose, oh – come on Rose. Rose. Undo it, Rose.
He said her name in vain while he ran after her.
But there was no point, it was silencio that hit him and she was still running incredibly fast for wearing high heels.
And then she slipped. He didn't want to admit it but she was extremely beautiful in her gray dress, red hair, red flooded cheeks and tears of mixed pain and sorrow.
"Leave me alone Malfoy" Rose yelled in the deserted hallway. He couldn't talk but he picked her up from the stone floor.
Just listen, listen – I want you, I need you. There is nobody else but you Rose. You have to know that. I' so sorry Rose, I am so sorry. Not a word came out of his mouth. There was silence.
"I deserve better. I am worth more than sneaking around, being a disgrace and the reason that your family will hate you" Rose said but didn't let go of him. Her ankle was badly hurt and he was slowly taking her to the old Madame Pomfrey.
I don't care about that, please Rose – don't say that. I've been wrong all the time… and you look so beautiful tonight. He gave her a look and pointed at his mouth. She didn't take notice of him.
"Why can't you just tell me that you love me?" Rose said and he knew that the redness that filled her face was embarrassment.
I love you. I love you too much to put you through everything, to make you a Malfoy.
But Rose didn't hear it; she just looked at his shut lips with sadness in her eyes. He knew she was afraid to undo his spell to be rejected but he needed to tell her somehow. They passed a picture of a familiar knight having a cup of tea with a visitor that seemed to be Albus Dumbledore just two halls from the hospital wing. Wait, Albus.
He knew how to let her know what he felt. He reached out the paper that Rose has carefully written down her love to him that summer night before the Hogwarts Express. He pointed stupidly at himself and then at the word and then he looked at her.
"It's easy to point and to 'tell' me when you are under silencio" Rose said simply.
"But you don't have the guts under sonorous or a normal tone either Malfoy" she added.
He felt burned.
Well undo the spell so I can yell it to you Rose, let me tell you everything.
He pointed at his mouth and gave her an angry stir.
"I do not need your pity love please. You can let me go, I will manage by myself from here and you go enjoy yourself with Corinda if McLaggen or even Albus doesn't beat you to it" Rose snapped and pushed herself away from his arms.
She left him in the hallway like she left him so many times. She abandoned him.
Rose please.
Don't go, don't leave again.
Rose
But how could she hear him when he was in silence.
***
Don't look back Rose, Don't you dare looking back.
But she did, and there he was.
Not stunned like she left him so many times.
Not even angry.
Scorpius Malfoy stood there, crushed.
***
"Last breakfast, I will miss it" Albus said looking at him. He made it clear to never talk to Albus Severus Potter again. Albus didn't mind having a monologue to him knowing that he always smoothed out with time.
"Still upset?" Albus said disturbed. He hoped that his ice-cold stir would be answer enough.
"You know that the stir doesn't do you good Scorpius" Albus said just as disturbed as before.
He stirred his oatmeal.
"I just wanted to fix it, and I'm sorry" Albus said with real regret in his voice.
"You don't know everything Albus, I can't just go and try to fix the whole world" he yelled. Albus looked at him with hurt eyes.
"I know – it's hard to follow in the footsteps of brave Severus Snape, the intelligent Albus Dumbledore and the heroic Harry Potter" Albus said with a kind of sincerity and emotion filled side he rarely saw in him.
"I'm sorry" he said quickly. She came into the Great Hall and joined Lily Potter, he felt all the anger leave his body and felt helpless again. He needed advice.
"Don't be – if there is anything I could do" Albus said and stirred his oatmeal slowly.
"How do I fix it" he asked – no, begged him.
"She is a Weasley – be grand" he said simply.
Scorpius stared at Albus intense and loyal green and saw his own gray eyes reflect back, the house of Black, the pride - his father. He remembered the words he told him almost seven years ago.
The Malfoys were proud was of course not said, but obvious.
The Potters were loyal.
And the Weasleys – The Rose, Rose was stupid and did everything for love.
"Call me a fool Albus" he said looking at Albus, he needed all the courage if he was going to do this.
"I don't need to call you a fool for you to know that you are one" Albus answered him.
This was it; he stood up and then stood on the table. It was extremely foolish to stand up in the middle of the breakfast with the whole school watching him but he wasn't surprised that Albus smiled upon him like he just passed him the pumpkin juice.
"Sonorus" he said with the wand to his throat. He heard his breathing fill the Great Hall and the talking died out.
"Go on" Albus said supportively.
Foolish.
But again, so was love.
***
If it was possible for Scorpius to become even paler than before this was certainly the moment. She saw how his fists were tightly held and red. He looked so wonderfully and misplaced on that table, so lonely and hurt and she just wanted to make everything better.
He just stood there with his loud breaths filling the Great Hall. It was those quick breaths that he got when he was nervous, ran or inches away from kissing her…
"Rose"
His voice saying her name filled her with a warm rush and all the people around the four tables and the staff table looked from the standing boy on the Slytherin table towards her.
"I am sorry and I lo –"
Are you serious Scorpius Malfoy? I am a Weasley remember.
"SILENCIO"she cried out as she stood in the table with her wand pointed and the same flame hit Scorpius chest. He didn't finish his sentence.
"Are you out of your mind?" she yelled and filled the silence in the Great Hall.
UNDO THIS ROSE was all his stir said from his table too far away.
"And I do to" she said calmly.
***
He stepped down, begged Albus to undo her spell discreetly with his eyes. Albus understood him with a simple glance and obeyed. Then he walked, past the Slytherin table who was disgusted by him, past the Hufflepuff table who were admiring him, past the Rawenclaw table who were analyzing him until he stood next to the Gryffindor table who was shocked by his braveness.
He was still in silence pretending to have been cursed.
She stood there, stunned. Finally he stunned her.
It was completely mental but he stood up at the table where she stood, took her so close to his body and felt the breaths rise by simple thrill and desire.
She had stopped breathing but he felt her warmth close.
"Yes, I'm out of my mind and Weasleys do stupid things for love" He whispered, at first she looked shocked that he even spoke but the pieces of the puzzle fell to place at her face at last.
"You're a Malfoy" Rose said.
"Doesn't matter, I love... I love you" he whispered and hoped that she wouldn't reject him in front of the whole school. What was he doing, his grandfather would roll in his grave.
Their eyes was fixed on each other, it was like the November night all over again.
"So why don't you kiss me already" Rose whispered back.
There, standing between cereals and pumpkin juice the Slytherin boy kissed the Gryffindor girl in a blend of roars of laughter, applauds, disgust and pure amusement.
Draco Malfoy was wrong. Nothing is stupid in love.
When he thought of it, of love, he didn't need another proof of what it was; he could live on this moment forever.
