Prologue
Rose and Albus were first people in their family to be placed in Slytherin house. This caused quite a steer in their family but eventually the Weasley family accepted that the were still members of the family and good even if they are Slytherins. Although Albus's older brother and Rose's cousin James still spends a lot of his time teasing and bullying his younger brother and cousin about being Slytherins.
On Albus' first Slytherin game, Rose arrives to support her best friend and cousin even though he fails to impress. Later that week, Albus tells Rose he doesn't want to play, but Rose encourages him to as the game won't change him and he shouldn't let it. Taking her advice, her best friend and cousin plays, and impresses.
After volunteering as a tutor, Rose then receives her first recognition as a successful tutor when a person at the Burning Boat tells her he got a B after her tutoring, which Rose is ecstatic about. Having a successful easy start at tutoring, this is soon short lived as she gets a new student, Albus' enemy Scorpius Malfoy. At first refusing, Rose eventually agrees if he leaves Albus alone, and no one else finds out. Scorpius and Rose meet up for their first tutoring session where he gives her a bracelet and tells her never to say he never gave her anything, and flattered, Rose is forced to deny her feelings and tell him to focus on History of Magic. After a few days of tutoring, Rose and Albus go to watch the boat burn, as they do; Albus asks where she got the bracelet from, the one she got from Scorpius. Rose avoids the subject and also saying the person she is tutoring is no one special.
After another Slytherin's match, Rose goes alone with Albus to Scorpius's after party and pretends she doesn't know who Scorpius is. As the night progresses, Rose ends up annoying Albus by defending Scorpius as Peyton warns her to be careful. Rose goes down to the lake and is joined by Scorpius, the two discuss their situations and Rose finds a softer side to him. The following day, Albus goes into the library and grills his friend about how honest they can be with each other which Rose agrees to. As she does, Albus gives her the hat she left in Scorpius dorm room, showing he knows about the time she has been spending with Scorpius.
After discovering that Rose has been spending time with Scorpius to tutor him, Albus begins avoiding Rose. When she eventually manages to talk to him, she assures him she is doing it to protect him, but Albus assures her he doesn't need protecting so she doesn't have to do it. But Rose refuses to stop tutoring him as she promised him for the first semester and she won't break that promise. Albus' view is soon changed though as he is ignored when Rose walks in the great hall and hugs Scorpius for doing well in his test. However, when she does hug him, Scorpius looks behind him at Albus and smiles smugly.
In another tutoring session, Rose gives Scorpius a tutoring kit to use during the Slytherin Quidditch team party. As Albus leaves for the party, she admits to him she likes Scorpius and it isn't her fault. Albus is forced to be ok with it but like Peyton, warns her to be careful. Later at the party she sees Brooke, who tells her that Scorpius has been passing around the note she left in her tutor kit for him and has been laughing at it. Without allowing Scorpius to explain that Brooke was lying and she had been going through his stuff, Rose storms off. Albus gets back from the party to find Rose crying in her room. Albus comforts her and tells her about how Peyton and him nearly had sex, but she freaked out as he mentioned wanting to be together. Rose asks to be alone as Scorpius knocks on her door. He apologizes and explains it wasn't his fault, as Rose refuses to believe him. She closes the door on him.
The following day, Scorpius finds Rose in the library, he begs for her forgiveness promising her he didn't show everyone the tutoring kit. Rose believes him, but isn't as easy to get around. She tells him that she is no longer his tutor and walks out. Meanwhile, Brooke, realizing she messed up their relationship at the party whilst being drunk, has decided to heal her karma by fixing their relationship. On her new mission, Brooke gets Scorpius to meet Rose at the common room for ten, but when she apologizes to Rose, she is less than forgiven. That afternoon, Scorpius meets Rose and persuades her to go on their first date. Brooke has given them cards and the first is for Rose to go, the 2nd is to tell each other three things they like about the other person. Scorpius goes first and tells her he likes her patience as Rose tells him she likes the way he lets her in like no one else and the smile he gets when he solves a problem. The final part of their date is to have a meal and order their favourites for each other. They also tell each other secrets. Rose reveals she once cheated on a test, which is why she started tutoring. As Scorpius is about to tell his, all the Slytherin team see him and Scorpius denies it is a date. Realising he is ashamed of her, she walks off. Following the date, Scorpius goes to see Rose and apologises. Furious, she begins yelling at him saying nothing will surprise her anymore that he does. He kisses her, and she is soon to change her mind. Following day, Scorpius leaves his friends for a delighted Rose and strokes her hair, showing everyone in the school how much he likes her.

Albus tells her how worried he is, but as she asks Scorpius, he won't tell her. In their following tutor session, in Rose's room, Scorpius continues to fidget. As he tries to get Rose distracted, he decides he wants to take their relationship further and tries to start having sex with her, but Rose, determined to remain a virgin until marriage, refuses and asks Scorpius to leave in disgust. Still on performance enhancers, Scorpius begins to argue with Rose again before the Slytherin's game, but Rose is soon surprised as Scorpius collapses on the flied. After a short stay in the hospital, Rose finds Scorpius in her room crying. He tells her that the only thing he was thinking when he was fainting was declaring his love to her.

When Scorpius tries to tell her that not all the blame can be placed on Albus, Rose gets arguer and the two fight. Instead of going to see Albus, Rose begins keeping herself busy due to her feeling too guilty to go and see him due to their argument the night of the accident. With Rose not talking to him, Scorpius goes to see Albus and asks him to wake up so he can talk Rose round. Albus wakes up and Scorpius rushes to tell Rose. He tells her that he visited Albus for her and that he does not regret using her or they would not have got together.
