Even though Teddy and James knew the people who were going to be at this party, Scorpius was totally brand new to the crowd. He’d heard of a few friends of Teddy's, here and there, but he didn't know anyone well enough to be comfortable. Still, Teddy was by his side at first to make sure he was doing all right, and when Teddy was pulled away, Jamie was there to help him out.

Neither one of them left him alone - not because they wanted to have control over him, but because they wanted to make sure he felt safe. He knew this, and was appreciative of it.

It made him feel special he was theirs.

An hour later, Scorpius found himself alone in the balcony with many people around him. This time, he was alone. It was because Teddy was busy with a card game with his friend, and Jamie wanted to go to the loo.

"I'll be fine for ten minutes, James," Scorpius said in his serious tone. "Honestly, I'm not a kid."

Everyone around him, his aunts and uncles, treated him as such and he didn't want that from - from who? - his boyfriends? Was that what they were?

"Okay, but stay right here. I don't want to go around looking for you…"

"Oh, for Merlin's sake, just go to the fucking loo," Scorpius said, amused. "I won't disappear or wither away, I swear…"

So, James had left him alone, and Scorpius was enjoying his evening. He looked up at the night sky and thought how great his evening was going. The stars were out, and there wasn't a hint of rain in the forecast. And if he was lucky, he'd be going home with his men and fucking the night away. That had been the plan.

His arse was a little sore from round one at Teddy's, and he was looking forward to more.

"So, you're the new flavour…" Someone next to Scorpius said; Scorpius wasn't sure if the person was talking to him.

He turned his head to look at the bloke who was glaring at him. "I'm sorry?"

"Flavour of the month? James and Teddy. I suppose you're it, then."

"I…" Scorpius didn't know what to say. He wasn't dumb. One comment from this bloke and Scorpius knew exactly what was going on. James and Teddy were a couple. In their friends' circle, it wasn't a secret even if it was a secret to the family. And obviously, they were open.

This bloke Scorpius was looking at, was hot. He had short black hair, piercing blue eyes, and he wore a black leather choker around his neck. He was dressed in all black, and his nails were painted the same blue as his eyes. He looked young, and lost, and broken.

Scorpius supposed that was their type.

"Hmm…" Scorpius said with disinterest. "Suppose I am."

"Be careful," the man said. "They'll chew you up and spit you out before you even realise." And then he walked away.

Scorpius barely had time to register the words when he realised both James and Teddy were looking at him from a distance. They looked worried; he wasn't sure if they’d heard the bloke that'd been there, but they had definitely seen Scorpius talking to him.

Of all the things Teddy had told him…were any of them true? Was that their forte? To bring in a third in their group and get rid of him once they were bored? That's what the man was trying to tell Scorpius, wasn't he?

What were they going to say to him?
