She could say it was an accident, the way her lips brushed against his. It wasn't.

/

DAY 1

/

She sees him for the first time while getting off the platform. Famous Ron Weasley, part of the Golden Trio. And attractive, too, with his shining blue eyes, tall figure, and flaming red hair. Not to mention he's nice to her. Talking to her like she actually exists, like she isn't a complete slut, like she isn't just 'another one of his daughter's friends.'

/

DAY 2

/

His wife Hermione tells her she's 'part of the family now,' so, he's free to tease her as he does Rose and Hugo, and he does. "Why do we tease people? Because we love them." She tries not to look at Hermione when her heart starts fluttering.

/

DAY 3

/

She decides to wear a provocative outfit today. While he scolds her, he blushes.

DAY 4

/

She's not in love with him. (She's never done that before.) She's certain it's lust. (Nothing new. But why does it feel different this time? It's her best friend's father. [Somehow, she can't bring herself to care.])

/

DAY 5

/

Rose is inside getting something when it happens. (Apparently 'part of the family' means, that you are forced to do chores…) So, it's Rose and Ron and her, trimming the bushes. Rose leaves, she kisses him. Hard. He pulls away too late, and Rose is there, and Merlin, that was amazing, and she sees a flash of light, and then the world goes black as pitch.

/

DAY 6

/

She wakes up with a headache like a hangover in the Weasley's living room before she realizes what she did and blacking out again.

/

DAY 7

/

She is told to leave. For once, she doesn't care.
