"How are you going to do it?" Albus asked as they both finished off their coffee.
"Albus, don't you believe in magic?" Scorpius asked, amused.
"Of course," Albus said. "But, what does that have to do with anything."
"Then leave it to me. I'll have to be patient, and use a little bit of magic," he said, winking.
Albus looked sceptical, but Scorpius figured he would have never expected him to show any patience, given Gryffindors jumped in without thinking anything over.
Eventually, Scorpius returned home that evening with Teddy in tow.
After having spent over an hour at the cafe with Albus and their discussion of what Albus knew and what they were going to do about it, Scorpius was ready for a very long nap. Of course, he should have known his father would have none of it. Dinner was always on time and if he'd said he wanted to nap, his father would only say, "you can nap after you've had dinner. I'm not going to disturb you and your precious evenings." Scorpius rolled his eyes imagining that conversation in his head and decided to not even try asking.
He headed off for a quick shower as Teddy and his father sat in the sitting room. It seemed his grandparents still weren't back, given Teddy was still there. Teddy and Lucius Malfoy for some odd reason just never got along. Scorpius figured it was possibly because no matter his outward appearance to the wizarding world, Lucius still was a bigoted Pureblood.
No wonder his mother had left.
Shaking his head, thinking his thoughts might just ride themselves so, Scorpius headed downstairs.
"So, I reckon we'll be seeing the Potters a lot now," Scorpius said, taking a seat at the dining table across from Teddy; his father on his left.
"Oh?" Father said, not looking up from his plate.
"Yeah," Scorpius said with a hint of amusement.
"You can't keep a secret, can you?" Teddy said, sounding annoyed.
"I can, Teddy. Can you?" Scorpius asked with one eyebrow raised. When Teddy just continued to glare at him, Scorpius changed tactics. "Anyway, I quite like Albus. We weren't friends at Hogwarts but I think we can be friends now. Do you mind if I invite him over for dinner, Father?"
His father coughed slightly before he swallowed his bite and then nodded. "Sure. I never minded your friends over."
