Hey! I finally stuck with my plan and did a one shot!

*gives self pat on back*

"Put it back where it came from, I beseech you!" Cried the maiden.

Dawnted by her words, the warlock took out his wand and unlocked the case. He slitted open his breast and placed the heart back in its rightful place-

Crash!

Scorpius looked up from his book. Rose Granger-Weasley was sprawled on the floor of the library, a wooden chair sideways beside her.

"Silence!" Hissed the Madam Pince as she stuck her head around the corner. Rose had gotten lucky. Normally students would have been chased out of the library by their own books.

The fourth year grunted as she got back up, repositioning the chair. Scorpius closed his book and went over.

"Need some help?" He asked, gulping as he towered over the girl.

She glared up at him, but said nothing. There were a few heartbeats of awkward silence. Finally, she spoke.

"I guess."

Biting the inside of his cheeks so as not to smile, Scorpius helped Rose onto the table, then lifted her onto his shoulder.

"People are staring," the redhead said as she scanned the shelf for her book.

"Let them."

After she found it, Scorpius set her back down, ignoring the burning stares of the other few people in the library.

"Human Heart, Hairy Snout, huh?" He said, attempting conversation to ease the tension.

Rose nodded. "I find werewolves and Lycanthropy interesting," she replied. Scorpius noticed she was avoiding his gaze.

"Rose... Do you... Er... I mean... It's okay if it's a no... I understand... But..." He stammered, not knowing how to ask.

"Scorpius, I would love to go on the Hogsmeade trip with you."

He looked up with surprise. "Really?"

Rose smiled and, standing on her toes, pressed her lips softly against his.

"Of course," she said, after pulling away.

Scorpius was so surprised her stumbled back, tripping over the chair, and fell backwards behind it with a loud thump. Rose laughed.

Madam Pince didn't.

Laughing, both fourth years raced out of the library, their books floating behind them, banging them on the head.

Eh? Eh? You like it? Lol it's stupid, I know.
