OOC: oops, I guess I posted Scorp at the Hufflepuff table in the wrong thread. Oh well, it doesn't really make a difference...
Scorpius looked up and smiled with relief as Rose came into the room. They were in this together, anyway. She sat down at the table with him, and he smiled again when she patted his thigh. He reached down and took her hand, squeezing it gently, then still holding it, lifted his own hand to rest on the table. Her family was going to know about them in a few minutes anyway. Besides, he was proud to be with her. he didn't want to hide their relationship.
Raising his voice, he called across to Victoire. "Do your cousins know we're waiting for them?" he asked, keeping his tone neutral.

Victoire sighed, trying to smile up at Rose when she walked in and sat down next to Scorpius. She nodded to his question and put her hands on the table. "they know, but I'm not sure they're thrilled you two have news that you would like to give together" she answered, she knew this probably wasn't going to be good but either way she was going to support Rose in whatever was happening.

Albus walked in, alarmed. He saw his cousin with Malfoy and shook his head. No, he was lying. Rose wasn't... I won't! he argued with the thing that told him to kill it. That that was the best for everything. No.. "Rose." he said keeping his voice even, "Scorpius."

Scorpius looked up and nodded. "Al," he said quietly. He frowned slightly at the look that suddenly flashed in Al's eyes. It was like - like waves of rage rippling through his expression. He shuddered. It reminded him of his grandfather, who had become prone to sudden outbursts of uncontrollable rage in the past few years. The old man was going senile, he thought contemptuously. Well, at least he wouldn't have to put up with him anymore - being disowned had its compensations after all!
Al seemed to be having some sort of inner struggle though; it was vaguely disturbing to watch. He glanced around, noting that everyone was there now. He stood up. He wasn't exactly scared; but it was disconcerting to have them all staring at him, with varying degrees of hostility. He looked down at Rose and smiled, then he said,
"I'm not going to waste time with long explanations. We just wanted to tell you that... that Rose and I are getting married, once she's sixteen. And in the summer, she's going to have a baby - my baby."

Lily skipped into the Great Hall, somewhat happier than normal because she knew that Rose and Malfoy had met during the Hogsmede visit. Thankfully she was pretty sure that James hadn't done anything rash yet and neither had Al but rumour had it Aunt Hermoine and Uncle Ron had visited recently. Seeing both Scorpius and Albus at the Gryffindor table with Rose and Victoire she smiled and made her way over to them. She came up to them just as she heard Scorpius' annoucement, causing her to stare at both Rose and Scorpius for a moment in shock. This was probably the cause of her relatives' appearance at Hogwarts. After a few seconds though the shock wore off and she looked at Rose with a grin on her face. "Really? You're really going to have a baby? Congratulations!" she hugged her cousin tightly before realising she could be damaging the baby and loosened her grip a bit. Turning to Scorpius she smiled. "Welcome to the family Scorpius." If Rose accepted him, then she would, even if her family was completely against the idea. Now all she had to worry about was James and Albus not completely blowing their tops. "Hey Albus," she said smiling sweetly at him as she sat down.

Rose looked up as Lily walked in, and behind her ... James. Then, Scorpius spoke. Rose closed her eyes, exhaling deeply, waiting for the blow. She gasped in surprise, as the first thing that happened was Lily bear hugging her. "Thanks Lily. Yeah really," she replied, smiling at her cousin. She bit her lip and turned ot face James and Victoire. James' face was red and he looked like he was going to blow!

James walked into the Great Hall behind his sister and stood beside Victoire, just as Scorpius spoke. His eyes widened in shock. Rose - pregnant - to Malfoy!Nonononono! He watched as Lily embraced Rose, congratulating her, and welcoming Scorpius to the family. He looked down at Victoire, then back up again to Rose. She was looking at him, almost begging him not to blow. "What!" he growled. "How dare you contaminate her like that, Malfoy!" His face was red and his green eyes flashed. He looked at Rose, shaking his head. He didn't know what to do know. He'd been told his aunt and uncle had been here, this must have been why. And, if they had got this far, to tell the cousins and siblings, then Aunt Hermione and Uncle Ron must have approved. He sighed and turned around, turning his back on them and walking from the room, unable to stay there, lest he do something he'll regret.

Scorpius watched as Lily and James walked in. He saw the shock on Lily's face, which changed to delight as she hugged her cousin. Startled, he managed a smile as she welcomed him to the family. "Thanks," he managed to say, but before he could say anything else, James snarled that horrible word at him.
"Contaminate?" His arm tightened around Rose's shoulders. She shouldn't have to listen to this kind of thing. First his father acting like Rose was contaminating him. And now James twisting it the other way round. It was totally ludicrous. "No-one is being contaminated. I love her," he said quietly. "And I'm a Malfoy in name only now - my father disowned me." But James had already stormed off. Scorpius looked at Victoire and Al, waiting for their reactions.

Victoire took in a deep breath hearing first what Scorpius had said then both, Lily and James' reactions. She saw James look at her then back at Rose, reacting like Rose had chosen to have this happen. She couldn't believe it. The way James was reacting was too much though. "James, don't you dare say that!" she said softly before he stormed out of the room.
"Congratulations" she said, her voice coming back to its normal volume. Hearing Scorpius say he was disowned she sighed, no one should have to have that happen. "Then there's only one thing to say... Welcome to the Wealsey family" She grinned at her cousin and hugged Scorpius, something she had never seen herself doing.
"And you Miss Rose. Don't you dare listen to James. He's just acting stupid. He'll come around" she told Rose before she wrapped her arms around Rose, hugging her gently. "You deserve to be happy" he whispered, only to Rose before straightening up and sitting back down at the table.

"James!" Rose exclaimed, shocked at his reaction, even though it was James. She felt Scorpius' arm tighten around her shoulders as he said he'd been disowned. Rose snuggled herself into him a little in support. Then, it was Victoire's turn. No surprise to say, that Rose was utterly shocked by Victoire's reaction. Even more shocked when her cousin got up and - hugged Scorpius! Rose smiled as she too was engulfed in a hug. "Thanks Victoire, you have no idea what that means to me," she whispered back. Now - it was Albus' turn. It was almost like his was the reaction she wanted to know the most. They'd been so close their entire lives, being so close in age. Now, it would tell whether that closeness would matter anymore

Scorpius was startled, to say the least, when Victoire hugged him. His own family had been cold and undemonstrative; apparently if he was now part of the Weasley family, he'd have to get used to hugs being handed out. Awkwardly, he managed to return the hug. "Thank you."
Then Victoire hugged Rose, and whispered something to her. Whatever it was she'd said, Rose seemed happy to hear it. Then he saw her look over at Albus, her expression tense. He knew Rose had always been close with her cousin. His opinion would matter to her. Scorpius looked at his fellow prefect, waiting to see if he would react the same way that James had.

Ablus stood and stared, blind to the world as the his cousins reacted, positive or not. Baby... So it was confirmed. Albus took a long slow shaky breath, barely noticing anything that happened. I told you. the voice teased, I knew this would happen. And I'll have my revenge, starting with that child. The words chilled him and he shuddered. Then he looked at Rose. She really did look blissful. He debated what to say. A slow smile graced his features for a second, something he had only done a couple times before, and not once in the last four years. "Congratulations." he said calmly, "I wish you the best." Then to the voice he said: You hurt their child and I'll stab myself in the chest. Fool the cold voice replied, laughing as it doubted the validity. Ablus meant it, every word. "Hugo's going to have a hissy fit." he noted lightly.

Rose watched Albus with baited breath, waiting for his reaction. His was the one she respected the most. Really. So, when he smiled and said 'congratulations' Rose smiled brightly. "Thanks Albus," she said happily. She looked up at Scorpius, wrapping her arms around one of his and hugging it. When Albus spoke again, she shrugged. "Hugo, shmugo. Mum'll have a word with him."

"Why are we rhyming my name? And badly I might add." Hugo said, walking up to the group. His blue eyes narrowed when they saw Scorpious, "What are you doing here, Malfoy?" he sneered. He saw his arms around Rose and glared, "Get away from her you prick." he snarled.
OOC// I find it ironic that other houses say Slytherin's bad when they are more abusive...

OOC: bahahahaha yeah it is pretty funny.
Rose sighed as her brother began abusing Scorpius. "Hugo, shut up and sit down," she said, using a voice she'd learnt from her mother. "You can't abuse people like that. It's wrong. I - we -" she looked at Scorpius. "-Have something to tell you. Hugo, I'm pregnant, with Scorpius. And - uh - we're getting married." She put a hand up to silence Hugo before he could speak. "Mum and Dad know, so don't whinge. Nothing you say'll change it."
