Scorpius wasn't sure of that answer really, but the look on Lori's face wasn't a good one. For a minute, he wondered if it was him. "Come on," he said, deciding against the garden. He took his hand and pulled him along down the corridor towards the kitchen. There was a door in that corridor, and it opened into the music room.
He ducked inside quickly, not needing the guards to see him at the moment. He hadn't left the house anyway. He locked the door behind them. He kept their hands together, twining fingers through Lori's. That face he made was - sad. "What is it? Did I do something?" When he was near Jamie, he had always done something. He was always apologizing for something.
