I'm Me

by Athena Goddess of the Wise

Sometimes it's easy to live up to your families expectation. Sometimes it's hard. And other times it's easier to just be you. Chapter Four: I'm not that great.

4. I'm Not My Mother

I'm Me: A Next Generation fic.

Subject: Rose Weasley.

Prompt: I'm not my mother.

Disclaimer: If I owned HP, do you think I'd be writing fanfics about the books (actually, I may, but I'm not J.K. Rowling).

…

I'm not my mother.

Sometimes I want to be, but I'm not. I'm not as smart as her. Sometimes I even come second best in a class (stupid Scorpius Malfoy). I do have her hair, but it is more red than hers.

I'm good at Quiditch. She's not. I love to read, but not study books like her. I have my dads appetite. I am a Griffindor, which is something we – and almost everyone else in the family – share.

I'm not my mother. Still, whenever people see me they recognize me as her daughter. And I like it. But then they expect me to be like her.

I'm not. I'm Rose, not Hermione.

I'm me.
