Chapter 4: The Great Hall

A/N: As you know from the previous chapter James does show up. So yes there will be more homophobia. There is your warning.

~Albus POV~

Scorpius and I walk through the huge oak doors, into the great hall. Unlike last year we can go in and sit next to each other and do the things we love together. (Sounds cheesey I know.) But this time we are, of course, apprehensive. We go to the slytherin table with our friends. We get lot's of congratulations and messages about how much of a dick Scor's dad is.

After the headmaster's speech the food appears and we all start eating the start of year feast. I look around all the tables but James is nowhere to be found. "Al,Al..., Albus Severus Potter." It was then I realised that I had zoned out, I'm not quite sure for how long but it got me back to reality. "Sorry about that I must of zoned out." I was now just stated the obvious." Yeah as we were saying Al, you might want to turn around."

I wondered what they were on about but, I thought, it won't make a difference. So, I did. And facing me was the one and only, James.

Before I could say anything he starts his rant,"So, you snog boys now. How does it feel to be more of a disappointment on this family. First you're in Slytherin, and then, then, you have the nerve to be a fucking ponce! With a Slytherin! Disgusting!" Well now that thats over  I think I can finally get back to normal. Except, what will be normal, Scor doesn't have anywhere to go now, he can't go back to my house because of James. I'm not even sure if I can go back. In the middle of ny train of thought, James grabs a handful if my hair and yanks down with great force. Enough force that my knees slame into the great oak table.

At this he finally leaves. What he said, broke me, how could my own brother say those things to me? I walk out the hall moving faster than usual. I don't know where I'm going to go. Someone must be following me as I hear another set of footsets behind me. I don't want to be with anyone," Go away!" The simple yet usually effective command was surprisingly met with my father's voice," Al! Come back!" He must have seen what happened from the staff table.

"I know it's hard and James makes it harder. But, you have to push through. You won't get anything thats worth it if you don't struggle for it. Think of when I.." Thats it I can't stand it anymore," I DON'T CARE ABOUT WHAT YOU HAVE DONE! NO ONE DOES! NOW, YOU'RE JUST A PATHETIC SCHOOL PROFESSOR!" I don't know why I said all that, but most of it's true. I am sick of hearing about what he's done, we hear enough of it.

"Okay then, what do you want to talk about?" I thought that was a stupid question and to be honest it was," I want to you to talk about how you're going to leave and let me go to bed." I think he was a bit shocked at this but, to my surprise thats what he did," Okay Al I am going back to the feast, I'm going to pass Mr Malfoy and I'm going to tell him that you just want to be alone right now. Is that alright?" Wow. I did not expect that, especially the ending, but yes. That was what I wanted and either way, he knew and my dad, Harry Potter, was going to talk to his sons boyfriend.

While he did that I walked back to the dorm and went to bed.

A/N: I did not expect to end on that sentence, or that whole last paragraph but here we are. And I'm happy with it.

See you next chapter
