Scorpius had really been keeping to himself the last week or so, not so much hiding out as making it known to everyone he did not appreciate being stared at in his own House...even if he was burning a pile of bloody clothes in the middle of the stone floor. They had been the clothes he was wearing when he found Lysander's body and he had hardly wanted to keep them around. So why shouldn't he have burnt them? What business was that of anybodies? But here it was, a week later, and people were still glancing frantically back and forth between Scorpius and the small black stain on the floor.

"You people are so plebeian." Scorpius announced to the room as a whole, sweeping it once over with a rather bored expression as he took his usual seat on the sofa by the fire. (Take, being the operative word, as there was a third year occupying it before he shooed them away)

He piled his books haphazardly on the floor beside himself- some part of him intended to study tonight, but it wasn't exactly what one would call an urgent desire.

After dinner Polly had gone to her dorm to start some homework, the homework she had not really focused on. She had ended up twirling her curly hair around her finger as she stared at the inked words on the page. She sighed heavily as she started to think that perhaps she should give tonights studying up as a bad job. At least Polly had stopped thinking about death lately; nothing was really on her mind she just wasn’t up for studying. What snapped her out of her thoughts was over hearing her roommates mentioning that Scorpius had been burning his clothing. Now that was a curious statement and enough of one to pull Polly from her spot on her bed and back into the common room.

She spotted Scorpius sitting on the sofa he usually sat at, and she went and plopped down near to him. “What did the clothes do to you?” Polly said turning to him as she adjusted her position on the sofa.

"They made some horrible comments regarding you and Professor DeBura," Scorpius explained, voice thick with feigned righteousness, "I was simply defending your honor."

He flashed a brief smile as Polly took the place beside him, adjusting his position slightly in her direction. "I am nothing, after all, if not a gentleman." As though daring her to contradict his self-assessment, Scorpius raised one pale eyebrow at her.

"How dare they make such comments," she felt a smile sneaking onto her lips as she focused on Scorpius. “I suppose I need to thank you now for defending my honour.” Polly grinned at him as she tilted her against the back of the couch but remained watching Scorpius.

“A gentleman?” Polly lifted her head again and placed a finger to her lips as she thought about it. “I think we need to alert the press? Or at the very least the gossip columnist about this new development.” Polly was only jesting as Scorpius was a gentleman or at least what Polly had seen of him over the years.

“So Mister Gentleman what do you intend to do about entertaining me?” Polly raised an eyebrow at him as a smirk took over her lips. “Since I truly doubt you are going to do any work.”

Scorpius laughed, his head falling briefly against the couch as he did so, "You wound me, Polly, truly." he declared, bringing one hand to rest over his heart as though he had just received the most base insult of his entire life. But, even as he grimaced, there was a laugh in his gray-blue eyes.

"I said gentleman, not court-jester." Scorpius pointed out, ignoring the jab at his academic prowess. Exactly how many times had he and Polly ignored their assignments together? He had lost count. "Why should I entertain you? I think the real question here is how will you ever repay me for the grand service I have rendered you against those insulting robes?"

Grinning as he turned things back around on her, Scorpius reached over and gave Polly a small nudge of accusation. "I accept payment in gold, sugar, and eternal servitude."

“I much prefer the idea of court-jester.” Polly actually smiled as she left and the smile remained as she trapped her lower lip between her teeth. Polly genuinely enjoyed her time with Scorpius and he was one of the few that she didn’t lie to all the time.

“Service you call burning hideous robes a service?” Polly joked knowing full well anything Scorpius wore was not going to hideous. Polly reached over and pushed him playfully. “Out of those options I think I would rather pay in sugar because I am not forking over any gold nor do I intend to be your servant” pausing she looked at him “ever.”

“Still I think you should do the entertaining as you are a gentleman, shouldn’t you care about a ladies well being?” Polly looked at him with and almost cocky expression.

Scorpius scowled slightly- all of his clothes were gorgeous and well-tailored, thanks very much!- but managed to keep his indignation to himself (in a highly uncharacteristic turn of events).

"Some lady!" He declared, exaggerating his reaction to her push as though it had been an extremely violent attack. "I think I might rather study my Arithmancy that spend time with someone who thinks it's okay to go around hitting people. I could have a bruise!" he added, with indignation.

However, after giving Polly a cool glare of the deeply offended, he pondered over her request. He almost suggested a trip to the kitchens but, honestly, he didn't want to walk those halls anytime soon- flippant as he was acting, Scorpius had not relished his first real experience with death.

"I think I want a cigarette," Scorpius finally admitted, wondering if he wanted to go all the way outside or simply up to his dorm to smoke out the window. "And, if you cared to join me, there's something I've been meaning to ask you about, now that I think of it!" He fixed a look on her that was both amused and considering, but didn't clarify his meaning.

“I am a lady!” Polly looked at him highly offended that she could be anything but a lady. “I just know how to defend myself.” Polly still trying to hold some anger in her tone no matter how fake the tone might be. “I highly doubt you are that delicate,” she said with a slight smile sneaking onto her face.

“Something you wish to speak with me about?” Polly was actually rather curious to know what this ‘thing’ was about. What could Scorpius need to ask her? “Of course I will come, I will even give you one of my cigarettes if you like in payment for my honour you protected.”

Polly stood up smoothing other skirt as she looked at Scorpius. “Shall we?” She held out her hand to him.

Scorpius reached out and took her hand in a familiar gesture, though he hardly used her support as he rose to his feet- little thing that was was! "I suppose that sounds fair enough...Since I'm feeling particularly benevolent tonight." He consented, absently leaving their hands attached as he crossed the commonroom and ascended the stairs to the sixth year boy's dorm room.

Once there, he threw open the large window beside his own bed and perched himself on the sill, holding his wand up, ready to light, as he reached to take the promised cigarette from Polly.

"I am going to ask you a question." Scorpius began, trying to keep his tone grave despite his laughing eyes. "And if you value my sanity at all you will answer with a resounding 'no'."

Polly was pleased he would take a cigarette as payment but she had not assumed he was serious about the comment anyway. She walked with him looking up at him every now and then as she walked towards the dorms. If it had been anyone else Polly might have noticed or questioned the fact their hands were still together.

As they entered the dorm she looked at the bed pondering just flopping on it and watching Scorpius smoke, but she knew that as soon as she smelt him smoking she would need one of her own. She moved to lean on the sill and looked at Polly.

“Okay speak,” she said handing the cigarette and collected one of her own from the pocket of her skirt. Unfortunately she was going to have to rely on Scorpius for a light and placed it between her lips and leaned forward almost expectantly.

After lighting up himself, Scorpius turned his wand toward Polly and whispered a brief spell to ignite her smoke. Then he paused for a moment, both too take a drag and to feed his love for the dramatic.

Scorpius exhaled but, rather than speaking he reached over to his bedside table and grabbed his journal out of the top drawn, un-charmed it and quickly flipped through the leafs until he found the page filled with inane gossip in an overly dramatic scrawl.

"Please." He insisted, pointing to one line in particular and holding it under Polly's nose. "For the love of Salazar and Merlin, tell me you are not actually sleeping with a Hufflepuff."

After Scorpius lit the cigarette she took in a long deep breath before leaning out the window to blow the smoke out. She looked back over at Scorpius waiting for this so called question that he had been meaning to ask her. She watched as he leaned over for something she had to assume was his journal.

A smile spread across her lips as she started to laugh. She rolled her eyes and looked out the window as she continued to laugh. “No.” Polly looked back over to Scorpius. “I have not been sleeping with a Hufflepuff.” She paused for a moment and took a drag before blowing the smoke back out. “I thought you were going to point out my own journal entry where I said I would.” Polly laughed a little more. “Something I don’t intend to follow through with of course.” Polly still continued to laugh a little as she looked at Scorpius.

She took a drag from her cigarette again and then blew the smoke out the window again before leaning a little closer to him. “What are you a little jealous?” A smirk was on her face as she leaned back to her current position.

"I saw that too, and was duly horrified." Scorpius pointed out in response, a clear expression of distaste on his face, and he snapped his journal closed in a motion of disgust. He took a moment to aim his own smoke out the window and into the night air before returning his disapproving eyes to Polly.

"Less jealous, and more disgusted at the very idea of one of my housemates lowering their standards so much!" He clarified, but he was smiling a bit now. Scorpius had always claimed an anti-Hufflepuff prejudice, but in all honestly he didn't care enough about most of them to really be set against them.

Just Nox. Scorpius truly could not stand that boy.

"I would have had to question your already dubious sanity!"

Polly chuckled again as he snapped the journal closed. Polly tapped some of the ash out the window and watched it fall before looking back to Scorpius. "Don't worry I don't intend to sleep with him ever," Polly spoke and caught her lower lip trembling as she spoke. Polly hated when she lied to people she actually liked, yet she often did it. Polly knew she was lying because the thought of sleeping with Nox had passed through her mind. She wasn't so sure if she wanted Nox to be the first person though.

"What was that about my dubious sanity?" She questioned looking at him a little annoyed. "I am quite sane." She took another drag of her cigarette and blew the smoke out the window again.

Scorpius turned a doubtful look on his housemate, as far as he was concerned anyone who could tolerate that Hufflepuff for more than five full minutes without hexing him even once was at least borderline neurotic.

"I'll be watching you, Pucey" he threatened. The characteristic laugh was still lighting up his eyes but if Polly knew Scorpius at all she would know that he liked to know things...and the warning was not an idle thing. He would be looking out for any signs that Polly was allowing herself to be swayed to what Scorpius unequivocally thought of as "the dark side" or, perhaps more accurately, "the obnoxious git, and not even in a clever or charming way, side."

“Watching me?” Polly raised an eyebrow as she took another drag and blew the smoke out the window. She tipped the ash off the edge of her cigarette before putting it out on the sill and then letting it down from the window. Of course it didn’t go far being that they were in the dungeons anyway. "That's a little stalkerish." Polly finished her train of thought with a laugh.

“So you are worried that I will be seduced by a Hufflepuff?” She raised her eyebrow at him. “I think you might just be jealous.” She joked as she moved from the window sill and sat down on his bed. “So since you have the question out of the way what else would you like to do?”

"Slytherin." He returned casually; a go-to explanation for any questionable activity in Scorpius' book.

Flicking the butt of his smoke out the window, Scorpuis turned toward Polly and gave her a smirk. "Not a chance," He declared...which could have been taken as the answer to either one of her questions, really. "You've put the burden of plan on me already, if you can't think of anything you'd like to do, I'm happy to return to my scintillating essay on the protective properties of Dragon Hide."

Okay, to not perfectly happy. His smirk dropped slightly into a frown as he spoke, but eventually it was a project he would have to finish.

"Slytherin, that is your only answer?" Polly rolled her eyes like being a Slytherin could dismiss his stalkerish and watchful activities. He was just being a pain in the butt and that was not just classified to only Slytherins.

"Happy to return to your essay? Are you sure you not ill? Perhaps we should take you to the hospital wing." Polly said with a concerned look on her face as she leaned closer to him. A smirk replaced the concerned look quite quickly.

"Well since we have already done the smoking thing," Polly said lying back on his bed and looking at Scorpius. "What else is there for us to do?" She mused on it for a moment before sitting back up again. "We could go for a walk? See what we can get up too?" Polly just didn't want to go back to be alone and bored.

"No," he laughed, "That isn't my only answer! I could add 'Malfoy' to the mix as well" And, honestly, was there anything left for a Malfoy to do that would surprise anyone? If there was, then Scorpius was doing it just by being so careless about everything.

"A walk would be...acceptable." Scorpius nodded thoughtfully. Like he was going to let finding dead bodies in the halls keep him from wandering in the night! Well...actually, it probably would keep him from that- but right now it was just evening, and the light hadn't even faded from the sky.

Polly just shrugged her shoulders as he replied with another answer. "I suppose that is a good enough answer." Polly weakly chuckled as she got up from the bed as he said that a walk would acceptable. Polly figured it was better than just sitting around doing nothing at all. Plus walking with someone else was a good idea considering the events that had taken place at school.

"Then a walk it shall be." Polly slipped her hand back into his and started to walk backwards out of the dorm. "Any location in particular you wish to go?" Polly didn't mind if they went outside or just roamed the halls, course the former would probably provide more entertainment than roaming the halls.

"Outside." He stated, allowing her to lead him by the hand out of Slytherin and into the cool stone corridors. Who wanted to wander around boring hallways anyway? Who wanted to wander around dimly lit blood-stains hallways? He could have asked either question, but kept both silent.

"Let's go down to the lake and throw things at the squid." Scorpius laughed out loud, remembering that it was something he used to do back in first year when he had never seen the squid and had been eager to catch a glimpse of it. "Maybe if we're lucky it will get angry and drag you under. That would be exciting!"

Outside it would be then. Polly walked along the corridors with Scorpius, her hand loosely connected with his. She turned to Scorpius and shook her head. "No Scorpius that would not be exciting, more like horrific." Polly did not like the sounds of the squid dragging her under. "It would be much more amusing if he dragged you under." Polly smirked as she navigated them out a door and into the outside world with fresh air.

"If you promise not to agitate the squid to such lengths as it wants to drag us in I suppose we can go to the lake." Polly shrugged her shoulders as she started to walk in the direction of the lake. She highly doubted the squid would drag either of them in, but what if.

"Hmm, I'm not sure." Scorpius mused, "I like to think of myself as something of an expert of humor and it has always seemed to be that when other people hurt themselves it's funny, but when I get hurt it's pure tragedy."

He lifted his chin slightly as though he had just bestowed a gem of wisdom upon his housemate, but the smile tugging at his lips mostly ruined the effect.

"So you laugh at other people's pain and we cannot laugh at yours?" Polly looked at him and sighed. "You know that is very hypocritical of you Scorpius Malfoy." Just as she had started to say the name Malfoy she felt her feet hit something, most likely her own feet or a rock she had not seen. She herself fall forward and instinctively she held one hand out to stop her fall but gripped on tighter to Scorpius' hand to stop the fall.

The fall did stop for Polly as she felt her knees hit the ground as they had done time and time again. "Fucking bloody hell." She shouted as her fall finished and she found herself on the ground.

Who did laugh when they were hurt themselves? That would be like cheering at a lost quidditch match...unless you were Scorpius Malfoy for whom a loss often meant monitary gain, of course.

Scorpius had been about to shrug, as though being a hypocrite was not something he was concerned about, when he was suddenly tugged forward.

Under normal circumstances Polly would not have had the weight, nor the force, to pull down Scorpius if he were determined to stay upright, but at it was he was caught entirely off guard, and he got tangled somewhat in her falling legs and lurched forward. Still, he didn't topple all the way, but had to put one knee down to catch himself against the pressure of their connected hands- merlin, but she had a firm grip!

He smirked down at Polly as she swore loudly. "What? Why aren't you laughing?"

Once on the ground with no way of reclaiming her original stance she finally let go of Scorpius’ hand, which she realized she had a vice like grip on. She looked at him as he spoke and gave him a forced smile. “Funny,” she said sarcastically as she rolled over and dusted off her knees. She looked up at Scorpius and shook her head. “Why the blood hell would I laugh at my own pain and embarrassment?” At least she had not flashed Scorpius, or at least she hoped she hadn’t.

“I don’t laugh at my own pain, but I am more than willing to laugh at yours.” Polly said as she remained sitting on the ground looking over at Scorpius. “I suppose I should start laughing at myself as I end up like this more than I would like.” At least there was not far to go, she added in on in thought but would rather not draw attention to her extremely small stature.

Scorpius tilted his head back and gave a rather loud laugh. Watching Polly be clumsy never got old- Scorpius laughed every single time. But, as they were friends, he did hold out a hand to help her back to her feet; something he would not have done for most.

"Are you going to be alright, or should I just carry you the rest of the way to prevent disaster?" he grinned.

Polly took his hand as she lifted herself up to her feet. She dusted off her behind and looked at Scorpius with a bit of a death glare. As he talked about carrying her she had a flash back of when Nox had carried her, which left her with a rather conflicted feeling.

"I am going to be just fine." She looked over at him with an annoyed look. "Unless you have the burning urge to carry me." Polly looked at him not particular sure which choice he would take.

Of course, if Scorpius had known that Nox had been the last person to pick Polly up he would have let her be and thus avoided all possibly comparisons but, and perhaps it was better that he didn't know, he laughed again and reached down to put his arms around Polly's legs and in a quick but gentle movement tipped her easily over his shoulder. She was, after all, an eminently scoopable size. It was always impossible to not pick her up.

"Now," he declared, speaking slowly and enunciating each word, "I won't have to wait for the squid to make the first move to get you in the water!"

Polly watched as Scorpius reached down and tipped her over his shoulder. “No that was not an invitation,” she really couldn’t do much about it now though. He had her over his shoulder and she was pretty sure one gust of wind and she would be showing her knickers to the world, at least she wore nice knickers. What worried Polly more than flashing the world her knickers was the fact she was enjoying the attention from Scorpius a little more than usual. Polly didn’t want to think about her friend in that way so she was just going to focus on getting down.

“Let me down!” She hit his back a little. Though her eyes widen at the thought of him tossing her into the lake. “No fucking way! Do not throw me into the water.” Polly had little trust that he wouldn’t actually do it. He had picked her up after all so what was just a bit more effort of tossing her into the probably frigid water. “If you throw me in I am going to find away to bring you in with me.”

"You talk big for someone so small." was Scorpius' only response, but he chuckled to himself as he got nearer to the lake. Honestly, he had only even made the comment to bother her but, now that he thought about it, Polly in the lake sounded hilarious.

Scorpius found it hard to believe what a good mood he was it; considering that when he had entered the common-room there may as well have been a dark cloud literally hanging over his head. He allowed himself to grin, just because he could.

There was a small dock sticking out into the lake, where the firstyear boats landed at the beginning of each year and Scorpius walked this to the very end, pausing a moment to give Polly the chance to think about her fate. "Any last words?" He teased, and readjusted his grip to toss her towards the water.

As they got nearer the dock and she then saw that they were on the dock and getting closer to the end Polly really started to think that Scorpius was actually going to toss her in the water. “No no no no no,” she said over and over again and hit him a bit but really what more could she do. She tried to wriggle free but that wasn’t going to happen.

“If you toss me into that lake I will make sure you get pushed in some how.” Polly was not going to let herself getting wet just be brushed off her shoulders. She felt him adjust his hold on her and she was ready to scream if she had too. “Don’t you dare Scorpius don’t you dare or otherwise I will make you pay.” Polly would do everything in her power to get Scorpius in the water or paid back equally for what he was about to do.

Scorpius wasn't really taking Polly's threats seriously. What could she do, really? And so, with one last laugh he took the finally step to the dge of the dock and tossed the little blond Slytherin outwards. He didn't put too much force into it- She was, after all fully dressed so Scorpius didn't want to risk overly deep waters. "Tell me how the water is!" He called, as he opened his hands to release her into the air.

Polly felt him move more and actually did it. Scorpius had tossed her into the water. A loud scream left her as she was tossed from the somewhat safe position of his arms. She felt the water as she hit it, and it was an overall shock to her system. She submerged under the water and bounced back up spluttering a bit before wiping hair from her face that had fallen from the pigtails she was wearing. "You asshole." She said looking up at him as she moved back to the dock. "It is cold you know." She grumbled in an annoyed tone. She was definitely going to make and effort to push or pull Scorpius into the water. She wouldn't care if he took her in with him since she was already wet after all.

"You are going to get it Scorpius." She said as she held onto the dock looking up at him.

Throwing his head back just a bit, Scorpius let out a loud laugh that, in anyone else, might have been a bark, but was somehow softer when it came from him. "Oh, I am, am I?" He quirked a brow, not entirely convinced by her assertion.

He watched Polly make her way back to the dock and couldn't keep from laughing more, softer this time. Robes and blond hair soked, she looked perfectly harmless, and the combination of that and her glare was just perfect.

Shaking his head to try subdue the laughter, Scorpius toed out of his good dress shoes, and sat down to pull off his socks. Was the water cold? He wanted to stick a toe in and see if she was just complaining.

He was profoundly unworried about Polly graping him- Scorpius flashed her a wide and genuine grin as if daring her to try and get him in the water.

"It suits you, you know." He pointed out, gesturing to her wet hair and sopping clothes.

“Yes you are going to get it.” Polly was just not sure how he was going to get it. He had to pay for tossing her into the lake and she was going to make sure he did. Polly pulled herself up out of the water and sat on the dock her legs in the water still. “You are such an asshole, I cannot believe you did that.” She said glaring at him.

Scorpius looked so calm like he had nothing to worry about. She was hoping to make him worried about it because he deserved to get pushed into the lake. Polly pushed Scorpius lightly and glared at him. “Oh so you think I should look like a drowned rat every day?”

"Maybe just a couple times a week," He corrected, nudging Polly with his shoulder. "Wouldn't want to over do it and loose the novelty." He shifted a bit uncomfortably as the water from her clothes began pooling on the dock and running toward where he sat.

"I may be an asshole," Scorpius admitted, flashing Polly one of his most winning smiled, "But you'll forgive me. Think how dull things would be if I wasn't around! eh?"

"Haha very funny," Polly rolled her eyes at him. She watched as he shifted and shifted a little closer to him, she was going to get him wet one way or another be it just from sitting next to her or completely submerged in water.

"Make things interesting, well maybe but I don't count being tossed into a lake interesting." Polly said and pushed him and little harder. "I think you just need to be pushed into the water and make this an even situation." Polly said pulling her feet out of the water stood up slowly moving to get behind Scorpius just to give him a helpful nudge.

"Whats fun about even?" Scorpius grinned, "It sounds much too similar to 'fair,' and no one wants that!" He wasn't really paying attention to Polly and as she stood up he looked down at his down damp side with a bit of a grimace.

When Polly pushed him from behind Scorpius really could have stopped her, if he had put in the effort but at it was he allowed himself to be propelled forward, but twisted as the last moment to grab Polly off the dock and pull her back into the water with him.

"You bitch!" He spluttered, a smile stretching over his whole face "You complete and utter, bitch!"

Just as Polly was about to say, 'that is what is fun about even', she felt his hand on her and she was being pulled in after him. She had not expected that which caused another yelp from her lips as she fell into the water. If anything this time it was more shocking as she had not been expecting it at all.

She came back up and looked at Scorpius with a very smug look on her face. "That was so much fun!" She laughed as she moved closer to him. "And you totally deserved it." Polly reached out and ruffled his wet hair. "Don't you look cute all wet like that."
