Disclaimer- I do not own Harry Potter
Okay, sorry for the slower update. I think there's only one more chapter. I possibly will write a third part to this story.
Love When It Matters
Once changed and back at Ron and Hermione's house, drinking hot chocolate, Rose started on the four adults.
"Did something happen while we were gone?" asked Rose.
"Ronald," Hermione glared .
"Okay, I will say I didn't start the conversation properly," Ron admitted.
"And what's that suppose to mean Daddy?" Rose sweetly asked, ready to explode if her Dad had asked a stupid question.
Harry sort of sniggered. Ginny hit him with the Daily Prophet she was holding.
"Tell her Ron," Hermione pestered.
"I asked him, if by chance, he had ever visited wiztube."
"And..."
"And then when he said wiztube was for thirteen year old not grown men, I protested differently----"
Harry finished, "Let's just make a long story short. Ron reenacted Voldemort getting hit in the head with a coconut."
Rose stared at her Father. "How could you Dad. You probably made a fool of yourself."
"He did," coughed Ginny.
"He also brought up the subject of when we were at Hogwarts," Hermione added.
"It didn't go so well either," Ginny said. "Ron, Harry, and Hermione got into a huge argument."
Rose stood up shaking her head. "I cannot believe you." She tromped out of the house and straight toward the bench by the biggest rose bush.
"Rosie," Ron said behind her.
"Yes Dad," she said through gritted teeth.
He sat down next to her.
"I'm sorry honey. I really am," he sighed. "I guess I just don't know how to act around the Malfoys'. You getting married and bonding us is probably the worst and---" he paused. "--- Best thing that's ever happened to us. I will try harder Rosie. I'm just nervous that's all. My little girl's leaving me. For real this time," he had tears in his eyes. "I love you Rose. You'll always be my little girl."
"Daddy," Rose wrapped her arms around him. "I truly believe in you. Our families will get along someday."
"I know Scorpius will take care of you. I have no fear in him."
"Thanks Dad."
"Rose! Ron! Come back to the house!" Hermione called.
"Come Miss Weasley," Ron held out a hand. "Your Mother's calling."

The Weasleys' and Malfoys' had more family-get-togethers in the following months. They slowly bonded as they spent more time together.
"Rose!" Albus yelled, walking through the front door.
"She's in the backyard Al," Hermione called.
Albus' face was chalk white,
"Al, what happened?" Hermione asked, noticing his expression.
"It's Scorp. He--- he came down with a bad sickness. He picked it up at St. Mungo's."
Albus ran out of the house.
"Rose!" screamed Albus.
Rose flung a lawn gnome.
"Quick! You have to go to St. Mungo's right now! Scorp is gravely ill!"
"Then what are we standing around here for?"
They apparated to St. Mungo's and rushed to find Scorpius. Rose came bursting through the door.
"Is he alright? Is he going to live?" she asked panicking, to the Healer tending to him.
"He has a very high fever which could result in death, but if it goes down he'll most likely live."
Rose ran to Scorpius' side. His face was covered in beads of sweat.
"You're going to be okay Scorp. I know you will," Rose said, taking hold of his hand.
Scorpius lay there silent.
The morning turned into afternoon and the afternoon turned into night. Rose sat there beside him the whole time.
"Rosie," Albus said. "I know you're worried, but you need some rest. You can always come back tomorrow."
Rose shook her head. "I want to stay here Al, beside Scorp, until he wakes up. I want to be the first one he sees."
"I'll tell your parents then," Albus yawned.
"No need. EXPECTO PATRONUM!"
A silver blue jay burst out of the tip of her wand.
"Tell Mum and Dad I'll be staying at St. Mungo's for the night."
The silver blue jay gave a nod with its head, and flew out the open window.
"I didn't know you could produce a full patronus Rosie," said Albus wide-eyed.
"Mum taught me a while back. She thought it might be useful someday."
Albus waved goodbye and left the room.
Rose conjured herself a chair and sat down in it. She soon felt her eyelids drooping and she fell asleep.
Cough, cough, cough.
Rose's eyelids flew open and she looked at Scorpius. That was probably the most life he had made all day. His eyes opened slightly.
"Rosie?" he asked.
"Oh thank Merlin's you're alright," cried Rose. She felt his forehead. "And I think you fever broke too." She stood up. "I'm going to get a Healer right away."
The Healer confirmed that Scorpius was going to live. He would need to stay at St. Mungo's a couple of days before going home though.
"Why don't you go home and get some rest Rose," Scorpius said. "I think I'll be okay with you being gone for a little bit," he smiled.
"I think I'll do that." Rose took floo powder home.
Rose visited the following days frequently. His health improved and he was finally able to return home.
And then there came the biggest argument either one had ever had with each other.....
So what did you think? Have any guesses about what the fight's going to be about? One more chapter left. Please review!
