  Summary

  "Merlin’s beard… you gave up a professional Quidditch scholarship just to go back to Hogwarts because of him?"

  "Because of who? "– came Draco’s voice from the kitchen.

  "No one!" James and Scorpius answered in unison.

  James lowered his voice.

  "You idiot… Scorpius, Al’s not going back to Hogwarts this year"

   
  Or

  A story where one kiss and too many feelings make Albus Potter disappear to find a new life in Ilvermorny.

  While in France, Scorpius buries the heartbreak under trophies and headlines, chasing glory on the Quidditch pitch and pretending he never looked back.

  Six years later, in a bar in Brooklyn, a song cracks the silence.
