Is This Really Happening?
Starting The Journey
Now that Harry and Draco are outta the way, time to start the list. What happens when a young Pureblood wizard mingles with Muggles for the first time? Complete insanity!
So, sit back, read, enjoy, and if you like, review.
Love always,
Avoline

Lily smiled as she stepped out of the small hotel room. She and Scorpius had made it safely to Muggle London, and after getting settled into their rooms, had planned on going to an amusement park. She was nervous, and had asked her aunt Hermione what would be appropriate to wear.
Which is how Lily wound up in knit shorts and a t-shirt.
She turned just as Scorpius stepped out of his room. She surpessed a laugh at his outfit.
"Don't even giggle," he muttered. "You're the one who said this would be best."
"I never said it had to be bright orange and yellow," she shrieked, falling over with laughter. She was met with his signature glare. "I'm sorry, Scorp. You wanna try and transfigure it to a different color?" He nodded curtly and darted back into his room.
He didn't really look that bad. Those colors just didn't go with his hair!
Since when did she care about what went with his hair? She had always felt that he looked best in mostly black or darker colors. She also felt that he looked stunning in one of his many suits...
She shook her head. He probably never noticed what she wore, even when she showed up at the Yule Ball with one of the Scamander twins. She was a simple, unattractive red-head who would never get a chance with someone like Scorpius. He was smart, handsome, rich, and the most loyal person she knew. He could have any woman in the Wizarding world, and the Muggle world if he so wanted. Why would he be interested in her.
She was pulled from her thoughts when he stepped back out. He had changed the colors to a dark grey and black, which suited his complexion just fine. She couldn't hold back the smile.
"That looks better," she said softly. He smiled, and she felt a pang of hurt in her chest.
"Thanks, Lils," he answered. "Lets go to this amusement park or whatever the hell and get on with it so I can get back in some real clothes." She giggled and lead him towards the exit. "You nervous?"
"Yeah," she replied. "I've never been to one, and it's been years since Aunt 'Mione has been to one. I don't really know what to expect." She felt an arm around her shoulders.
"It's okay, Lily," Scorpius soothed. "I'm right here. I've never been to one either, so this will be a first for both of us." She smiled and hugged him around the middle.
"I know," she responded. "That's why I'm glad I've got you here."

"If you EVER get the bright idea to do that AGAIN, I will PERSONALLY hex you to OBLIVION!"
Lily laughed as she ran from her companion. They had just left the amusement park, and he was both terrified and furious. She swiftly opened the door to her hotel room and darted in. Unfortunately, she wasn't fast enough to shut the door before he got his foot in it.
"Scorpius," she shrieked as he tackled her onto the bed. She giggled as she fought him away, but he was built just like his father, and before she knew it, she was pinned under him, his hands wrapped around her wrist. She opened her eyes to meet his.
"I'm serious, Lily," he chuckled. "That was the most terrifying thing I have ever done, and I never wanna do it again!" The laughter ceased as both of them realized what position they were in. She stole a glance at his lips to see that they were hovering just over hers.
"I take it you didn't like the roller coaster," she questioned softly. He nodded.
"I'll take a broomstick any day over that," he replied, his voice equally as soft. She could smell his cologne, a mix of sandalwood and worn leather. She could feel his breath on her cheek, and her eyes slid shut.
Merlin, if he kisses me, I might just die right then.
"Promise me we won't do that again," he whispered. She nodded.
"I promise," she vowed. She bit her tongue to suppress the whimpers of protest ad he moved off of her.
"Good," he began. "What's next on the list?" She reached for the notebook and scanned over her list.
"Something even worse than a roller coaster," she answered mischievously. He glanced at the paper and groaned.
"Fly in an air plane," he moaned. "Why do you seem to be attracted to danger?" She laughed at his obvious fear.
"It's not something we can do whenever we want," she explained. "I want to experience it at least once."
I want to kiss you at least once, Scorpius. Even if you don't love me.
