"Lily Luna Potter, will you marry me?" he said looking into my eyes.
I know that he is just saying this so he can get the job, but seriously why in such a hurry and in front of my family and even worst why at the Christmas Weasley-Potter Family dinner. Time stopped and everyone looked at me, shocked. I knew Scorpius was an acquaintances of my brother Albus, both were in Slytherin same as myself. Yes I know "I can't believe two Potter in Slytherin, what will the family think", Albus and I never considered Scorpius our enemy but neither our friend, well ok, he had saved my a couple of times but that doesn't mean that we are best friends, or even friends enough for him to come grandparents' house and ask me to marry him.
I kept repeating in my head that this had to be a prank with the help of James and Fred, but now his face looked serious enough to be believable.
So why does Scorpius wants to marry me, well one of his fathers companies needs him to be in charge but to do so, yes, he need to be married, that's why Draco married Astoria, so he can handle the business while Lucius was in Azkaban. But why me he can go to the other airhead Slytherin I'm sure they would love to spend his family's fortune. I on the other hand, I have a job, been 20 years old and in the Aurors Department with my father and my brothers, I wouldn't give it up for anything.
But if Scorpius knows that I love working at the Aurors Department why he asked me, if he wants to piss his father off maybe Rose was a better option. Rose was a crazy woman, she hated Scorpius as much and my uncle Ron hated Draco, so that was out of question, what I'm going to do maybe I'll talk to him about it.
"Um Scorpius, this is not the appropriate time for that, what do you say if we talk later or I'll owl you tomorrow but please not here, I know why you are doing it." I said quiet, expecting no one to hear.
"I can't wait… Let's go for a walk I'll explain everything better than what you know, please." He said looking into my eyes, the same hopeful spark in his eyes that was just moments ago when he aske me to… to marry him.
I turn around and look at my grandma Molly to see if it was alright for me to go with Scorpius while I was a guest at her home, she looked at me and nodded, so I took Scorpius hand and lead the way to the back door, near the kitchen.
"So why did you came here, it's Christmas you could have owl me in the morning or floo to Al's apartment and knock my door, now I want an explanation to you sudden marriage proposal"
"I…I think you know why, but I'll explain, at my grandparents Christmas dinner, one of my father's friend and my uncle Theodore Nott asked if he was ready to give me part of the company and my father said that he needed to meet my fiancé first then he'll see. That's when Lucius stud up and said that if I didn't have a fiancé by the end of the month, he'll arrange a wife for me and believe me when I tell you, you don't want to know with whom. So I said that I had a fiancé but she was at her family's Christmas party…" he couldn't even finish because I interrupted him.
"So you want ME to MARRY YOU so you can't even enter the thought of arranged marriage. Scorpius I don't even consider you my best friend and pretending is a big commitment we have to be extremely careful, well have to lie to my family too, there has to be another way, just charm a girl, you have almost a week come on, put your charm and looks to work."
He took my hand in his and looked at me, I know what I said about not been my friend maybe hurt him. "Please just pretend, let's make a deal…" oh Merlin, I hate deals.
"First let me hear it then I would tell you what I will do."
"You pretend to be my fiancé and lets give it tops 3 months for us to see if this is going to work, if we don't work I'll leave you alone, if you want never ask you for another favour, but please just help me this time, come on Auror Potter is afraid, never thought I'll live to see you back down…"
I didn't let him finish, come on, I'm a Potter and Weasley, my pride is as big as Hogwarts.
"I'll do it, so you better shut up before I change my mind." I said crossing my arms and looking powerful, just like I do when I'm at meetings in the Auror Meeting room.
What came next was unexpected, but what can I expect, this past hour was full of surprises, a marriage proposal, a deal and now a bone crushing hug all coming from Scorpius Malfoy.
"Thanks Lily Potter, I knew you would back me up, now…" he kneeled and pull out of his robe a tinny box, this night was indeed full of surprises. "Lily Luna Potter, will you be my wife and stand by my side everyday of our lives?"
I looked at him and knew that this would not end good, but anyways a deal was a deal "Yes" I said as simple as that, giving him my left hand so he would be able to put the ring on my finger. I slightly turn around and my whole family was looking through the window, I just shook my head, mum was probably crying with grandma and dad comforting them, I'm sure uncle Ron was happy it was me and not Rose, but mad that Malfoy would 'join' the family.
"Take a look at the window," I whispered when he pull me into a hug. He waved to them and raised my hand, pointing to the ring.
"So Scorpius where did you get the ring, it's beautiful" indeed it was, it was the perfect size, if I was ever really going to get married I wish my ring was like this, but oh well maybe I'll never met the boy of my dreams, or maybe Scorpius could be…nah I don't think so.
AN: This is my first ever fanfic, I just love Lily and Scorpius so I decided to joining the club; we need to make it stronger :) lets beat Rose/Scorpius. Sorry I just hate her. Any ways please tell me what you think, this would probably be like 6 chapters long 3 in Lily's POV and 3 in Scorpius's POV.
