A/N: Hey guys! This is a five-shot drabble fiction written for Lyric Inspired Drabble Challenge at Harry Potter Fanfiction Challenges.
I have been given five sets of lines from the song 'It will rain' by Bruno Mars and my pairing is Rose/Scorpius. I'll be writing the drabbles and the theme of the drabble is the lines given to me.
Anyway, I hope you enjoy reading this.

Your daddy can't even look me in the eye
"Don't be scared!" Rose exclaimed for the infinite time.
"I'm not!" Scorpius said defensively, shrugging.
"Right," Rose drawled.
Scorpius knew that she didn't believe him, but he had repeated that line so many times, that he wished it sounded true to her and to him too. He rather wished that he wasn't doing this. He would have preferred fighting a dragon or even Lord Voldemort or anything dangerous…but not this.
They were standing outside Rose's parents' house. It was a pretty cottage surrounded by an average garden…a lot different than his home. He was meeting Rose's family for the first time. Actually, just her parents.
He couldn't believe how nervous, and scared he felt. His knees were wobbly and his palms were sweaty. And heart beat accelerated with fear. He can do this! Yes! They are just two humans! The worst thing they could do is hate him. Or hex him. Or end up admitting him at St. Mungo's. Oh Merlin! Why was he being such a drama queen? That was Albus's job. But no amount of prep talk or distraction was helping him.
Then he looked at his girlfriend. Her pale blue eyes stared into his grey ones earnestly, and the amused look that she had had on her face the whole day, had left her completely. Infact she looked at him comfortingly.
"They are going to love you." She whispered, cupping his cheek.
He just wanted that. He just wanted her parents to accept him as he was. He just wanted them to think he was suitable for her. He just wanted them to believe, that he was going to be the best man for her. He just wanted them to like him…just a teeny little bit. Just because he knew it mattered to her. And just because he loved her.
"I love you," she whispered, and gave him a peck on his lips.
"I love you." He squeezed her hand.
"Let's do this." He said with confidence and firmness.
At that moment, he knew that Rose was going to be with him. And that she loved him. No matter what.
Squaring his shoulders, he took a deep breath and knocked at the death's door.
