"Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do.
But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart,
that's true strength."
I saw that somewhere, and I guess it was in the back of my mind when I wrote that last chapter. It seems to fit Scorpius perfectly.
Here's the next chapter, and the completion of Lily's list. Sit back, and enjoy.
Love always,
Avoline

"Come on, Scorp, I can't see!"
Lily was blind-folded, completely at the mercy of Scorpius's gentle touch. She didn't think he would hurt her, but she also thought that about her cousin, Fred, and it ended with her having to go to St. Mungo's with a broken arm. She hesitantly took one step forward, then the other.
"It's okay, Lils," he reassured. "I'm not going to hurt you. I promise." She jumped when she felt his breath right next to her ear. "I could never hurt you."
She felt a shiver go down her spine, but not because she was cold. No, the shiver was cause by the low, seductive tone Scorpius had taken on, and she wanted to hear his voice like that again. She wanted to know what actions would accompany that tone. Last time she heard anyone use that tone of voice was her fifth year, just before Christmas break.
If Dad knew about that night, he's have Lorcan's head!
She felt Scorpius stop, and heard a door open.
"Are we at the Manor," she questioned.
"No," he answered. "This is a bit different." She felt the terrain change beneath her feet from dirt to flooring, yet she continued to follow him. She felt walls to either side of her, and knew that it had to be a small cottage. He stopped again, and she felt his hand tremble in hers.
"Scorpius, why are you nervous," she inquired. She couldn't see why he would be nervous. Then again, she couldn't see anything right now.
"If I told you, Lily, it would ruin the surprise," he replied, his voice quivering about as much as his hand. She smiled, hoping that he was looking at her face.
"Scorp, if it'll ease your nerves, then I don't mind," she soothed. She felt his lips on hers, and she eagerly returned the kiss. A door was opened, and she was lead into a room. She felt something playing around her feet as the door was closed behind her and her companion.
"Sit." The creature sat down at her feet. She felt his hands working the knot of her blindfold. The cloth fell away, and she opened her eyes.
She couldn't stop the flow of tears at the sight that greeted her.
The room was painted a sky blue, with black and white cartoon bones painted all over the walls. There were different dog items everywhere, and a large, Gryffindor red dog bed in the corner. She looked at her feet to see Padfoot staring at her, waiting to play.
"Oh, Padfoot," she choked out as she lifted the pup into her arms. She cuddle the small dog before noticing the collar around his neck. She turned the piece of fabric until she came across the small metal tag. She read the engraving on the tag.
Will you marry us?
She bit her lip and turned to Scorpius, only to see that he was on the verge of tears.
"I couldn't think of a better way to ask," he explained softly. "None of my ideas were good enough, and after Paris, I was so scared that I wouldn't get the chance, and-"
"Scorpius," she cut in. "You don't have to explain yourself. You already know the answer." His arms wrapped around her, and she buried her face into his shoulder.
"The only way to complete your list, Lils," he murmured, "is for me to hear you say it." She managed a laughed and raise her head to meet his gaze.
"Yes," she replied. "Yes, Scorpius, I'll marry you." His lips met hers in a passionate kiss, and she felt his tears mingle with hers.
"I was so scared you'd say no," he half sobbed.
"After all this work, how could I say no," she countered. He laughed, causing her to look up.
"That's what I told Dad," he chuckled. "Just wait until he finds out that I was right." She smiled.
Finally found love.
And he's all mine.
