Nicknames
Here is their detention and the end of their 3rd year. Sorry about the early years being so short. The later years will have a lot more chapters. Hope you enjoy!
Scorpius
Today was the day of our detention. I wonder what we will have to do now? The last one wasn't so bad until Hagrid left us of course. Maybe this one will be better and easier.
I walked into the Great Hall and saw Albus. I walked towards him and sat down.
"Hello Sleeping Beauty!" He chanted.
"Huh?" I asked.
"Oh right. It's a muggle story. I was just joking about the fact that you slept in."
"Oh..." I made a mental note to check out the story about 'Sleeping Beauty.'
*after classes, dinner before detention*
I walked into the Great Hall with Al after all of the classes for the day. I was ready for the day to be over but was also dreading it because of our detention. I ate quickly and walked over to Rose when I was done and waited for Al.
"Hey Red! Ready for detention?" I asked as I sat down next to her.
"Red eh? And yes I am ready for detention, Ferret, how about you?"
"Yes, Red, I have made nicknames for you. And I am ready but not very excited about detention, Weasel." I responded. Alice snorted. I gave her a look.
"Would you two stop flirting and let the rest of us eat in peace?" She retorted laughing. Rose and I glared at her.
"We are most definitely not flirting Alice! Just talking, or is that illegal now?" Rose fired back at her. She seemed somewhat angry but couldn't help but smile at the same time. Alice threw her hands up in the air, surrendering. I laughed at their little fight.
"Ready for detention you two?" Al asked Rose and I from the Slytherin table.
"Yup!" I chanted back as I stood up. Rose and I walked towards the door and was soon followed by Al.
When we arrived at Professor McGonagall's office she was waiting outside for us.
"Now, you three will be cleaning the trophy room without magic. Follow me." We followed her to the trophy room getting less excited by the minute. We entered the trophy room and were each handed a bucket with a sponge and a towel.
"You have three hours to clean all the trophies in this room. If you fail you will be continuing tomorrow night. Now, you will not use any magic while working and I will know if you do. You may start now." Professor McGonagall told us before she left. We reluctantly started cleaning the trophies, not wanting to come back tomorrow night.
*two and a half hours later*
"Hey Al! I found your Grandfather's name on this Qudditch Cup trophy!" I yelled to Al. Both Al and Rose came running over to see it. We were all standing in front of an old trophy of the 1977 Quidditch Cup.
Quidditch Captain: James Potter
Seeker: Nicholas George
Chasers: Marlene McKinnon, James Potter, and Charles Treefront
Beaters: Sirius Black and Mark Skiver
Keeper: Dorcas Meadows
"Yup, that's my grandfather. I never knew he was a Chaser though." Al said. We looked at it for a little while longer and then went back to cleaning.
After we had finished cleaning all the trophies we trudged back to the Gryffindor common room to drop Rose off. She thanked us and then we headed towards the dungeons. We didn't say a word to each other the whole walk. When we got to our dormitory, I fell on my bed without even changing and fell into a deep, dreamless sleep.
*the last day of 3rd year*
Rose
I packed my trunk and rolled it down to the Entrance Hall where the House Elves would take it to the train. I, like my mum, always hated when people treated house elves cruelly, so I always leave a note and a candy from Hogsmeade for the house elf who took my trunk to the train.
I walked to the Great Hall after placing my trunk in the Entrance Hall and sat next to Al and Scorp at the Slytherin table. I, like my dad, like food, a lot. I ate bacon, eggs, pancakes, and some toast.
"Hungry Thorn?" Scorp asked.
"Thorn? Where did you come up with that one? And yes I am very hungry." I responded.
"Well, your name is Rose and there are thorns on roses and you're quite feisty, which you could call thorny, so that's my inspiration."
"Oh, thanks? Did you make a list of nicknames for me or something?"
"Well, I helped!" Al said proudly, making Scorp and I laugh.
"And no I didn't make a list but I was bored in History of Magic and instead of sleeping I came up with some nicknames for you and Al."
"So what are your nicknames for Al?"
"Al, Lil' Potter, or Lil' P for short, The Boy Of The Boy Who Lived, or Alby."
"Those are...TERRIBLE!!" Albus shouted. He definitely did not like Scorp's choices.
"Now we all have nicknames! Al's are pretty hilarious. I like mine way better though." By the time we had finished this long conversation about nicknames we had boarded the train and we're heading home.
Thanks y'all for reading this!! Hope you enjoyed and laughed a bit at the nicknames. Will be uploading about their 4th year soon. Please comment suggestions and vote!
