Re: Scorpius/Patrick
Patrick chuckled. Scorpius might think that he was being sly, but he was just one of many to play that gay. Patrick has shagged too many not to know. "As long as you are having fun, that's all it matters."
He nodded. "Thank you, I really appreciate that. I might let you know, although things are much tighter now that I'm back at the Ministry. It's not like at the clinic where I could do whatever I wanted."
He patted Scorpius' arm. "Look, you are young, you did something stupid, lots of stupid from where I'm standing, the most important trying to become an Auror to make a point, but you've grown up, and now you can really do what you want, and you're still Scorpius Malfoy, that name opens up plenty of options. In a few years, no one is going to remember what you did, not even your parents."
