Title: What Went Wrong
Ships: Harry/Ginny, Ron/ Hermione, Draco/Astoria
Background: Derek is the youngest son of Ron and Hermione. Morganna is the only daughter of Draco and Astoria. The feud between Draco and The Golden Trio, Ron, Harry, and Hermione has long since been forgiven, but has never been forgotten. An ill-fated bond between these two star-crossed lovers will bring up much pride and prejudice and only time will tell if their fates were meant to be entwined.
Disclaimer: This story is as much to cannon as possible, but takes place after the epilogue of J.K. Rowling's 7th installment, Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows, and I intend no copyright of J.K. Rowling or Warner Brothers.
Preface: The Beginning of The End
It was dark outside. The only light came from an occasional strike of lightning and an even rarer glimpse of the moon, which hung amidst dark, stormy clouds. On a street lined with houses, only one had lights on inside. Two people sat next to each other in front on an empty fireplace, each lost in their own thoughts. It as a while before either of then spoke.
"Derek, what are you thinking about?" Morganna asked. Quietly, Derek said, "Us." Morganna looked surprised by his response. She obviously hadn't been expecting that. The look other face showed as much and brought a slow smile to Derek's face. "Why?" she asked. "Why not?" he rejoined with a question of his own. Morganna swatted at him in annoyance, but then leaned in to kiss him on the cheek so he would know she wasn't really aggravated at him for being his normal, difficult self. Relenting, "I was just thinking of when we first met." he said, as his gaze brushed over her and passed to the empty grates of the fireplace.
