Chapter Text
Lily Luna Potter walked up the old stairs of Grimauld place in London. It was a cold winter day, the kind that made her jealous of muggles and their heaters, sure there were warming spells, but it really wasn’t the same.
Strong hands grabbed her by the waist and pulled her into one of the rooms, her world turning into a whirpool of soft kisses and blond locks
“Scorpius! Stop!” she giggled at the tickling feeling in her neck
“Don’t want to” said the man burying his ivory skin into her neck. “We’ve hardly talked all winter”
“Scor, we literally see each other every day, we talked this morning during breakfast” Lily laughed as she caressed his hair not making much effort to get away.
The Weasley’s would rotate where they would spend their holidays as a family every so often, this year London being chosen as the place. In typical Weasley family fashion, it was noisy, lively and obviously crowded. This year Scorpius was spending the holidays with them… as Albus’ guest.
After they all left Hogwarts Scor and Al (best friends since day one) became roommates while at their apprenticeship at San Mungo’s magical hospital, they rented a two bedroom flat in the north of London.
Lily, who was working part time at a muggle bar near their neighborhood whilst she wrote her novel, would sometimes crash at their place to avoid the old witch she dubbed her “roommate-from-hell.” And sometimes Scorpius would come by to the bar after his shift at the hospital by himself to decompress after a long day and he and Lily would talk for hours until sunrise.
Surprisingly, or maybe not so, somehow their budding friendship turned into quiet mornings twisted together in bedsheets, and candle light dinners with wine on the living room floor. It was nice, comfortable and happy, and also a secret well kept. Albus and James were very protective of their sister. The first time Lily had gone out with a boy they started up a mess in the great hall, it was so embarrassing. Thus, to avoid any issues the red haired girl and her brother’s best friend just sneaked around, but in these holidays it was getting increasingly hard.
They stayed in that position for a while, holding each other quietly, until she started laughing again
“Okay Babe, you really gotta get off me, my whole family could walk through the door any minute and i’m not trying to snog in the room you share with my brother”
Instead of letting her go, Scorpius hugged Lily tighter
“Its a torture being around you everyday and not touch you, hug you, all that romantic stuff that couples are supposed to do” He whined almost pathetically. Merlin he didn’t know he was capable of loving someone this much, he didn’t know love could turn you so bloody foolish. Yet, he still refused to let go of her.
The red haired girl sighted and pushed him off softly, giving him a couple of pecks as compensation
“I mean it, I was supposed to let everyone know dinner is ready, now we are all gonna eat cold food because of you” The blond just looked at her, a silent lovesick plea in his gray eyes. Lily smiled to herself, those eyes were definitely her biggest weakness. "Tell you what, we can sneak out tonight after everyone is asleep, just you and me, Mm'kay?" She got on her tiptoes to give him a proper kiss in the lips
Scorpius smiled softly and wrapped his arms around her neck "I'll hold you to that, Potter"
They kissed again, this time a stronger, hungrier kiss, when suddenly the door to the room swings open
"Hey Scorpius, have you seen Lily? Grandma said- WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TWO DOING?"
