Dark Fire

Chapter 16- The Road to Hell is Paved With Good Intentions

Scorpius fell asleep with sweet visions of Lily in his mind. The thought of her soft lips on his seemed to rock him to sleep in loving fantasy. In his half lucid state he felt a body slip into bed next to him. He must be imagining things, he thought to himself as he closed his eyes again drifting back off into his boyhood dreams of his perfect flower, Lily and her sweet smiling face.

“I know you’ve been confused, but I forgive you.” A high pitched grating voice rang out in his stunned ears.

Daisy had crawled into his bed in the Slytherin boys’ dormitory and was now kissing him on the lips her hand moving down his stomach and further down until…

“Ummm stop!” Scorpius jumped to a sitting position. He reached over the girl who was in his bed and turned the light on.

“What are you doing Daisy?” Scorpius said loudly and his bunk mates were now awake as well.

“Oh Scorpie, I guess we got caught. Now everyone knows about us, it’s okay Scorpie we don’t have to hide it anymore.” Daisy had a smirk on her face as she hugged Scorpius around the waist.

“Get the hell off me!” Scorpius screamed and ran out of the boys’ dormitory and into the Slytherin common room where it looked like he was trying to wipe her touch off of him in disgusted fashion. By this time a small crowd of both girls and boys had gathered after being awakened. He turned around and Daisy was once again hard on his heels. Lily had come around the corner now to witness this horrific scene and unbeknownst to Scorpius was standing only feet from him as Daisy planted a sloppy kiss on his lips. The Slytherin boys were now clapping wildly and hooting’ and hollering encouragement. Lily turned and ran back up the stairs to the girls dormitory throwing herself on the bed in a fit of tears as Daisy stood in the common room throwing her hands into the air as if begging for more applause while Scorpius turned just in time to see Lily’s crying and contorted face running away. Scorpius set off up the stairs to the girls’ common room to explain to Lily but was stopped by two fourth year girls who told him he could not come in there. A frustrated Scorpius pounded his fist into the wall and slunk back down the stairs where a smirking Daisy stood waiting for him. Most of the crowd had now dispersed and gone back to their bunks and Scorpius sat down on the couch in the common room.

“Are you happy now? Got what you wanted?” Scorpius said to Daisy with a defeated look on his face.

“It’s better that she hurts now rather then later Scorpie. We were made for each other.” Daisy callously said.

“I don’t like you Daisy; can’t you get that through your thick head?” Scorpius said in frustration.

“Well I love you enough for both of us Scorpie. I’m older then Lily Potter and I can do things that she can’t. “With this Daisy whispered something dirty in Scorpius’s ear and he turned away revolted.

“No Daisy you have to leave me alone.” Scorpius said very seriously.

“But…Your Dad and my Mum dated all through school. We are destined to be together and I find you so hot. Do you find me hot Scorpie?” Daisy was now scooting closer to Scorpius on the couch.

“Look my Dad married my Mum not yours, because he loves her. I don’t love you. I love Lily. Daisy you can’t just love someone because your Mum dated my Dad and you think you are supposed to be with me. You have to find the guy that is right for you. Somewhere out there is a wizard who will love you.” Scorpius was tired of Daisy and he needed to rid himself of her permanently so he was putting forth his best effort to appeal to her as a person.

“Scorpie I do love you I’m sure I do!” Daisy would not let him go.

“Daisy somewhere is a guy who loves your pug nose and your screechy voice and your big boned butt and just everything about you…but it isn’t me. It’s really not me.” Scorpius stood up to leave now but Daisy was crying now and he felt the innermost twinges of guilt surfacing, until he remembered Lily’s tears and the mess Daisy had caused.

“Well goodnight then. I am locking the door this time. Go to bed already.” Scorpius said as he left a crying Daisy on the couch in the Slytherin common room.

“Promise me one thing Hermione.” Hermione and Draco were wrapped up in each other’s arms lying by the fire in their Hogwarts living quarters.

“Anything Draco,” Hermione said as she kissed him on the chin her body draped with a sheet laying over top of her man, their clothes in a heap on the floor.

“If we go with Potter and his wife and the weasel to Egypt you and I stay together.” Draco had a serious look on his face as he gazed down at his beautiful Hermione, the glow of the fire reflecting the light in her chestnut hair.

“Of course Draco, that goes without saying.” Hermione hugged him but sensed his ambivalence.

“Is there something you’re not telling me?” Hermione sat back up propped against his chest.

“Things don’t look quite the same as when we were there years ago. People change in the tomb, we will be different. You have to promise me you will be with me, we stay together.” Draco again had asked her the same thing with a very serious expression.

“Yes, alright, I promise Draco now shut up and make love to me again. The kids will be awake soon in their dorms and we have to tell them that we are leaving after Scorpius’s quidditch game.” Hermione reached her hand down beneath the sheet and Draco moaned and rolled over on top of her as they made sweet beautiful love together.

Review?!

I am getting really excited to write the next part. I don’t think anyone will see this coming either :P
