Rose Weasley was not any ordinary Weasley, and maybe that wasn't such a good thing. Well, she looked like a Weasley, the vicious and unable to straighten red hair, the masses of freckles and electric blue eyes. But she had a much different temperament to the normal Weasley, if such a thing existed. No, she was very calm and didn't have an incredibly short fuse like most of her cousins, she was quietly intelligent but she was extremely shy. Rose was so shy, she was so different from her family it pained her sometimes. She wasn't, to her, pretty like Dom, Roxanne, Lily, Molly or Lucy who were like angels sent from heaven. No, she looked like an electrocuted rabbit that had just experience a very nasty fox attack. Her hair refused to be tame and no amount of make-up could sort out her freckles, as much as her cousins told her, she refused to believe she was beautiful. She wasn't very outgoing and didn't try out for Quiditch, but the one thing she had done was become a Prefect. Her Mum and Dad had been so proud and her heart had swelled with pride and love. She had finally done something that she could be proud of, and she changed. She was happy, smiley and bubbly she made loads of new friends and even joined the Herbology club.
Until Rory Chapman a Ravenclaw, he had been the first guy to ask her out at Hogwarts and at the beginning of sixth year they had started dating. She had been so happy; she had never thought any guy could want to go out with her. It was around February time of sixth year when it happened. They had been alone in a secluded corner of the Library; they were studying if you could call it that. They had been happily snogging until he had put his hand underneath her shirt. Rose wasn't used to this and still being quite shy pushed it away, but he had tried again. She pushed him away again and again, but he became more and more forceful she asked him to stop but he didn't. She punched and kicked at him and finally got away, she just ran away from him and didn't look back. She had dumped hi m after that, but Rory didn't stop. Rory became angry he would tease her in classes calling her frigid and a tease. She stayed close to her cousin Albus, who was a well respected Slytherin and her best friend. He protected her and cared for her, but while she got closer to Albus the walls that had come down a fifth year, quickly built back up. She closed herself off from everyone. Albus's best friend Scorpius Malfoy was constantly trying to hit on her and it was well known he was a trouble making, flirt and womanizer. Albus did kind of tone him down a little, Albus was kind and intelligent how they could be friends Rose didn't know. From what Rose knew of the Marauders, Scorpius was like Sirius but Albus was more like Remus, Teddy's Dad.
Being around Scorpius made Rose his target of affection, she hated it and tried to make him stop but he wouldn't. It scared her sometimes, and Scorpius didn't understand exactly what he was doing to Rose. She did understand that so wasn't mean to him, simply told him to stop but that didn't work. Summer had come as somewhat of a relief to Rose, she relaxed and let go of all her worries- well tried to. It was until she got that letter when old worries started to rear there ugly heads. It was a letter saying she had received Head Girl, which surprised her but pleased her. They had had a little party just her family and Uncle Harry's, which was James, Albus and Lily. It just so happened that Albus was given Head Boy, and they celebrated that to. Although Rose still worried about going back, and seeing Scorpius and have to suffer his affections plus Rory, but maybe being Head Girl would change her school life. Just Maybe.
