"So you will use first and last name. I'm just trying to be sure I understand." He shrugged. "And you're right, he's not your dad and my dad isn't my dad, but he also is, Albus. I know things haven't always been right with him, but this is a second chance for everyone."
Scorpius laughed bitterly. "It's a lot of work for nothing. We can't leave Hogwarts and I'm not sure how flirting at a party will translate into becoming a part of the ministry. Besides someone took the PR job already." He sighed. "I should have been quicker, but I wasn't, and besides, your dad seemed already decided. I don't think that a Malfoy who dresses like a woman is the message they want to send to the world."
He leaned closer, resting his head on Albus' shoulder. "We can be useless together. We can write romance novels inspired by the greatest love affair of the greatest wizard. We'd make a fortune."
