"Ron...?" It was Harry. "Ron, I've just heard. How is she?" Ron looked up.

"She's gone, Harry." He choked out. "I've lost her." Harry collapsed into one of the waiting room chairs.

" Ron, I'm so sorry." Harry tried to muster more, but his words were lost. Ron was numb.

"Where are Rosie and Hugo?" He asked.

" I...I don't know. I just got here from a mission in Wales." Ron stood up. He had to find Rosie and Hugo. He had to let them know he was there.

A/N: Well there's the first chapter! I just wanted to let you guys know that this story is actually based off of my personal experiences. My mum died when I was about five years old. ( The same age as Rose in this story.) I guess you could say this is me coming to terms with it, even after almost 10 years. Also it will get much, much, better. This was just a prolouge of sorts! Reviews are mucho appreciated!
