Draco and Ron are in agreement, their children should not be friends. Unfortunately Rose and Scorpius disagree

For months Scorpius had been watching Zabini trying to use Rose. Today Zabini went too far but before Scorpius can come to her rescue Rose sorts Zabini out for herself. All Scorpius can do is to lend his shoulder for her to cry on - and it is enough.

A/N It was my original intention to only write a short story and this WAS the first chapter. Somehow the story took on a life of its own. after having written several Chapters I felt the story needed a better introduction. I went back and wrote a new Chapters 1 and 2. What was the first chapter became Chapter 3, this one.

Scorpius fears are true Rose knows that he lied to her.
But what will a Slytherin do about that lie.
And who else will be drawn into the schemes that  Rose is planning

Project "Get Scorpius's Secret" was under way. Robyn was getting Al's help. Now it is up to Rose to enlist Lysander into the cause.

But would Scorpius's investigation into their investigation of Scorpius's secret create a hugh disastrous mess or will they all achieve a happy ending?

Zabini's plot to get his revenge failed and he is no longer in the school but the legacy of the attack remains.
Rose began to feel uncomfortable and unclean.
Scorpius felt that he had lost his chance to tell Rose how he felt.

Now everyone has to come to terms with the different ways that the attack has affected each of them.

While Rose is coming to terms with everything that has happened to her; Scorpius has to face her parents.  Robyn also finds out that the world is not as simple as she once thought, Al support causes her to question her life long goals.

Scorpius realises that Rose is not the only one who was hurt by Zabini, he has his own demons to expel.
Meantime Rose meets Tegan and discovers that love still exists and life has gone on as usual.

Rose, Scorpius, Al, Robyn and Cameron board the train to go home for Christmas. Before they even have a chance to sit down Tegan barges in. Rose believes that Tegan has decided to make her moves on Cameron and helps out.

Rose also wants the Malfoy family to go to the Christmas Eve party with her family and Ron supports her; but does he have a secret adgenda?

Rose and Robyn talk about what happened the night before.
Meanwhile Ron has started towards making a reconcilation with Draco; how will it end?

At the Christmas party when Scorpius first caught sight of Rose he was rendered speechless. There was an air of mystery around Rose yet at the same time a physical pull that seemed to drag the air from him. She was an angelic vision that had a devilish gleam in her eye. She was Ying and Yang. She was in perfect balance. She was “WOW!”

Rose discovers what it is like to have a family and what Christmas means.

The six friends meet up again on platform 9¾
Rose and Robyn break the news that Robyn will be living with Rose.
Cameron revised the kiss between Robyn and Al on the dance floor.
But it was Tegan's news that stopped the show.

Rose has an insperation.
It will take a bit of work and a lot of planning BUT it will allow her to find out Scorpius's secret.

Now all she has to do is decide if she wants to carry out her plan

After nights and nights of study and research Rose finally admits that she and Scorpius need her mothers help to understand what has happened to them.

Her only worry is how will she tell her parents about her love life and have Scorpius survive the ordeal?

Rose and Scorpius are now starting to understand exactly how special there feelings are for each other and that their connection has a name.

It also means that if either one looses control for even an instant then the other is going to be dragged along. The only way out for them is to decide, in the cold light of day, where they want their relationship to go.

Romeo Montague and Juliet Capulet were the star-crossed lovers whose death united their feuding families in Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. And while I do not plan to kill Rose and Scorpius I am hoping that their love can unite the Weasleys and the Malfoys.

While Scorpius was talking to his father about him and Rose's relationship Rose went to the library. She decided to finally read the scroll that Lysander gave her before Scorpius and Rose shared their first kiss.

A/N - This is a very 'dry' chapter that I almost left out BUT it does explain Scorpius's motivations and actions. Thankfully it is a short chapter

It is Scorpius's birthday soon and Rose does not have a present for him. In fact she has no idea of what to get her boyfriend.

It needed to be something unique, it needed to be personal and it needed to remind Scorpius of Rose BUT what would it be?

Rose has been watching Scorpius and knows he is up to something. A something that involves her and she thinks she knows what it is.

But Would Scorpius be so stupid as to propose when they were both only 17?

Rose knows the answer would be yes if he thought that would be best for them. Now she has to protect Scorpius from himself.

The final Chapter.
Rose and Scorpius have lived through so much in the last year and have finally found their way to be together.
What could they possible have to worry about now.
Nothing - except maybe a tall red haired over protective father who fought against the darkest wizard of all time.
