"Sorry, but is it alright if I sit here? All the other compartments are full." Asked the pale blond as he peeped in through the compartment door and nervously cast his ice blue eyes downward, finding the carpet much more interesting. Albus looked to his cousin, Rose who was sitting opposite him, and had finally glanced up from her thick, red leather book which was resting in her lap. Albus hesitated, glancing at his cousin - who was now giving him a glare that Albus interpreted as, 'Don't you dare'. "Of course." Albus said as he moved over in his seat when Rose made no attempt to budge in the slightest, her eyes piercing curious holes into the back of the pale boy's head as he slowly walked forward. Albus noted that the boy was extremely well kept. His robes fitted him perfectly, and he had no facial flaws on his thin face. However, his hair, Albus noted, was messy like his, as if fingers had been ran through it multiple times in an attempt to straighten it out. Albus would have assumed it resembled his, only for the minor difference in hair colour. Platinum blond and jet black were polar opposites. The sharp click of the compartment door and the slight sinking on the soft padded seat beside Albus brought him out of his thoughts. "I'm Albus Potter." Albus said kindly, with a warm smile, as he extended his hand out to the boy who looked utterly taken aback, but shook it hesitantly, but gratefully, with a beaming grin of pearly-white teeth. "Scorpius. Scorpius Malfoy." The boy spoke, almost muttering the end of his introduction. Scorpius automatically dropped Albus' hand and fiddled with the end of his robes, which made Albus quite aware that he wasn't wearing his. However, Albus' thoughts scattered once more when Scorpius' smile faltered and turned into a frown. He sneaked a glance at Rose, who still hadn't spoken, but was wearing an exasperated look of 'I told you so.' Albus willed - or begged - his hazel-eyed cousin with his eyes and she finally got the message. Slamming her book shut in annoyance, and blowing a strand of her shoulder-length frizzy auburn hair from her eyes, she caused Scorpius to flinch ever so slightly and glance up. Rose sighed and put on her nicest smile, hazel eyes shining and showed a set of nice teeth, "Rose Weasley." Scorpius sat up straighter and shook her extended hand with a raised eyebrow, he knew she was sceptical of him, and we was of her. Suddenly, silence fell among the trio. Albus wasn't quite sure if it was a good or a bad one, but all three were looking at each other, silently preparing and expectantly waiting for something to happen.
