Ok, wow, its been a while...Sorry :( college has been awfully busy between TV Production class and work for our university station, I seriously don't have a lot of free time. But since we have been blessed by a long weekend, I decided to post the first chapter of my story :)

I tried to keep it as close as I could to canon, but its really hard :O So, I hope y'all would bear with me.

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter :(

Chapter 1: The Plans

"I really don't think that's a wise decision, Miss Patil." Aurora Sinistra said carefully as she watched the young, new Defense against the Dark Arts professor who was sitting across from her from a long oval table surrounded by the other Professors.

"Come now, Professor Sinistra" Padma said, her resolve, unwavered by her former head of house's disapproval "It's time for new traditions in Hogwarts!" She continued

"I quite agree with the young lass." A very old professor Slughorn replied from his seat across from the young teacher "The students need something new once in a while to keep them interested."

The headmistress looked around the table, taking in the few nods and doubtful looks that the other instructors were throwing her way. Finally, she sighed in resignation and said "Very well then." Then she narrowed her eyes at the former Ravenclaw and said "But I will not be entertaining any complaints from students or parents. You will have to deal with them." Then her eyes flashed towards the potions mater and added "And since you seem to agree with her, you are to help her."

She really didn't like this idea. After years of teaching at Hogwarts, she knew well enough that changes these drastic usually caused riots among the students.

Then she addressed the other professors and said "If there aren't any more concerns to be brought up, this staff meeting is adjourned."

"You're messing up my perfectly organized plans, Malfoy!" The red headed Head Girl said as she tried to pull away her organized table filled with names that Scorpius was now vandalizing.

"You call these organized?" The young Malfoy replied with a roll of his gray eyes as she kept the parchment in place "These are all wrong!"

The prefects that they had been meeting at that moment looked at the head boy and girl nervously as they glared venomously at each other, tugging a piece of parchment towards each other, while pulling it away from the other.

"These patrol pairings and schedules are all wrong!" Scorpius said once more as he dipped her quill into a black inkwell and started crossing stuff off, then scribbling a few notes on the margins "Chang has class during three in the afternoon, so she can't patrol during her scheduled slot." He said, crossing off the young Alexandra off the list then scribbling on her name somewhere else "Then Collins has Quidditch practice during the evening, so he can't patrol then." He continued as he did the same thing with Gerald Collins, who looked on nervously.

"Well, excuse me for not being nosy and having something better to than memorizing all of their schedules!" Rose snarled her blue eyes flashing dangerously

The tension on the air was so palpable that one could even cut through it with a knife if they wanted to. The twenty-four pairs of eyes stared at them, nervous, scared, but very much already used to the murderous glares that the pair was throwing one another.

"Uh…why don't we just patrol by house?" A timid fifth year Hufflepuff suggested after a few minutes of silence "Since we're in the same year and house as our partner, it would be way easier to coordinate schedules with them."

"Then we can pass you our schedules, depicting when we're free to patrol with our partner." A Ravenclaw prefect added, her hand gripping her partner's arm tightly, afraid that one of the two heads might bite since she spoke up.

Rose, whose anger had now slightly evaporated, glanced at her co-head questioningly, as if asking for his permission to agree. The duo stared at each other for a few minutes, as if they were giving an actual conversation with their eyes before the blonde finally nodded subtly and the red head beamed at the prefects and said "That sounds like a marvelous idea."

Then Scorpius cleared his throat and said in his most authoritative tone "Your schedules must be passed before dusk tomorrow."

"That's all for now." Rose chirped as she pushed her chair away from the table; as she watched the prefects do the same while gathering their things and running off to do whatever.

Scorpius, who had stood up too, now leaned back on the table as he loosened his green and silver stripped tie and watched Rose apprehensively.

"I'm sorry for snapping at you." Rose finally said as she looked down on her black mary janes, as if they were the most interesting thing in the world right now.

Scorpius shook his head and said "I shouldn't have messed up your schedule. You worked hard on that."

"No." Rose insisted, her eyes now boring into his earnestly "It was all wrong. It was right of you to do that. Besides, you probably saved me from a world of humiliation of you just let it be that way."

Scorpius smiled at her briefly before holding out his hand to her and said "So, truce?"

"Definitely." The red head replied with a grin before shaking his hand firmly.

Just then, the door opened with a bang and particularly cheerful Madam Patil entered the room, looking slightly frazzled, but nonetheless, looking absolutely ecstatic "There you two are!" The dark-skinned woman said as she entered the room, causing the two students to release each other's hands from their handshake. "I've been looking for the two of you everywhere! It was quite lucky that Vivian just came out of the meeting that the two of you have been holding."

"Oh." Rose said "Is there anything we could you help you with then, Professor?" she then glanced at her partner, who was already holding out a quill and a piece of parchment, ready to take notes on whatever Professor Patil needed.

"Yes, actually." She said, her grin growing at the sight of them. "You see, Professor Sinistra has asked me to inform the two of you to gather all of the students to the great hall."

"What for?" Scorpius asked, forgetting that his was talking to a professor for a moment

Padma glanced at the young blonde as she raised an eyebrow at him "Mind who you're talking to Mr. Malfoy." Then she cleared her throat and added "Just for a few announcements." Then she swept out of the room, her robes billowing gracefully behind her.

The pair sighed as they watch her walk away before turning to each other to form a plan.

"Alright, I take Gryffindor, you take Slytherin." Rose instructed

"As usual." Scropius interjected with a smirk

Rose glared at him for interrupting before resuming "And I can take Ravenclaw, while you inform the Hufflepuffs." She finished off as she turned to go, but was stopped by someone holding on tightly to her wrist.

"Oh no! I am not taking the Hufflepuffs!" Scorpius protested while glaring the redhead

The Gryffindor rolled her eyes irritably "Get over your house pride Malfoy; they're not all that bad."

Scorpius shook her head "It's not them! It's their stupid, bloody entrance!" He cried our furiously "Let's see if you like being doused in vinegar!"

Rose rolled her eyes at him once more "You're being stupid." She huffed "If you're so scared of getting your hair all messy, why not ask Albus to do it?" She suggested as she turned for the door for the second time as once she was free from Scorpius' vice-like grip "I'm pretty sure he has the pattern memorized by now. With all that after-curfew visits he makes to Alice." She grumbled disgustedly as the picture of her cousin and one of her childhood friends snogging the living daylights out of one another

"Oh alright." Scorpius said with a nod as he followed Rose out of the classroom and headed down to the dungeons.

So, what do you think? Let me know if you guys have suggestions for the upcoming chapters. :)
