I know, I know! I just reminded all of you that poor Lily is indeed dying! It's the heart-breaking truth about this story!
It's time to get Scorpius's thoughts on the romantic date. And more Draco fluffiness, of course. He is Scorpius's father, after all.
So sit back and enjoy!
Love always,
Avoline

Scorpius apparated just in front of the Manor and made his way inside. It was late, so he knew he would be able to go to his room without encountering anyone. He just wanted to be left alone for a moment. He was almost through the living room when he heard his father's voice.
"Scorpius," Draco called from his wing-backed chair, "you know you won't be able to go to bed before telling at least me about the night's events." He nodded and sat on the love seat.
"It was great," he stated, trying to hide his fear. "We had fun, saw all the sights. Bought her a dress that looked so good on her." He felt his father's gaze boring into him.
"Scorp, what's wrong," he questioned softly. "You're shaking." Scorpius glanced at his hands to see that his father was right; his fingers were trembling.
"We had just apparated there," he began. "And she was feeling a bit nauseous from the apparating. I waited for her to feel better before getting started, when she suddenly rubbed her chest." He felt his heart clench in his own chest. "She said it was just a dull ache, but it was just enough to drive it all home." He had to close his eyes to hide the tears from his father.
"Scorpius, she's not going to die tonight," Draco soothed.
"But her body is breaking down, Dad," the younger man whispered. "I didn't want to accept it, but it was right there in my face. She's dying." He buried his face in his hands and gave in to the emotions he had been trying to fight back. The tears burned as they fell, and he shook with each sob that wracked his body. He had never been more afraid in his life. He was terrified that she would never know just how much he loved her, if she didn't already know. He was scared that, despite what his father said, Lily wouldn't be there in the morning to greet him. He was scared that the puppy they had found in Paris would be left without it's savior to look to.
He was scared that he would be left without the one woman who made him feel alive.
After a few moments, he finally got a hold of his emotions, and raised his head, ready to face his father's ridicule. To his surprise, he was met with a sympathetic gaze.
"I know your scared, son," Draco comforted." And I'm proud of you for holding it together this long. Honestly, I don't blame you for being this scared." Scorpius sniffed.
"It's all I ever feel anymore," he confessed. "I hate living in fear, but I don't want her to go through this alone."
"I know," Draco repeated. "You've proven to be more mature than others your age. Not many young men would have stayed by her side for this long." Scorpius nodded. "What's left on her list?"
"Just one thing, that I added myself," he answered. "Say yes. I just don't know how to ask her." The two men sat in silence.
"Did the two of you bring back anything you could use," Draco inquired.
"Just a small, black puppy," Scorpius replied. Suddenly, a light bulb went off in his head, and he grinned from ear to ear. "Why didn't I think of this before?" Draco chuckled and stood.
"I'll just leave you to work out this diabolical plan of yours," he stated. "I'm going to bed." Scorpius laughed and stood as well.
"Don't worry," he reassured. "It'll be so perfect, she can't say no."
