Hermione's POV

I dragged Rose home.

Well avapparated us to my apartment.

I helped her to the couch and watched as her eyes stopped filling with tears. She was silent and just stared at the green carpeted floor. The tears had subsided the moment we avapparated into the apartment.

"He's not my dad."

"I'm sorry, Rose. I.."

"Why did you lie? Why did everyone lie?" She asked, still staring at the ground. My poor baby...

"I...thought it would have been best for everyone to be like a family."

"Oh like I've been apart of this family." Those words hit my heart like a killing curse.

"I know it's been..."

"How did Lily find out?"

"...Aunt Ginny."

"I'm going to my room." She stood up and immediately shut the door. I sat down in the loveseat and started crying. Why did I have to make one of the biggest mistakes of my life? Why did I have to ruin our friendship? Why did I have to choose Ron?

It seemed like the thing to do then.

Everyone was getting married, having the time of their life with the dark lord gone and all that.

No one seemed to care about their true feelings except for happiness. Happy...Oh how I wish to feel true happiness once again.

The moments I ever felt liek that were Rose and Hugo's births and my wedding day. Of course I don't love Ron like that anymore, but I truly believed I did when I was 19.

Who would have thought I would be the one to get married at 19? Pure excitement and the simple fluttering of butterflies in my stomach were enough to keep me going to the next 6 years.

And then they disappeared.

Everyday was the exact same. Nothing was happening for us. None of us. When James was born, there was a sudden pressure on Ron and me.

And that's when it happened.

Harry became a beckon of light in my rut.

We only did it once. We were all insanely drunk and no one even noticed. I didn't even think Rose could have been his until she was 4.

She was dressed in a white dress with a floral print on it and had dark red ribbons in her hair.

"Mummy! Mummy! Look! Look!" She squealed as she dragged her broomstick on the ground. I saw that Ron had charmed it to fly only a little off the ground, but chose to ignore it. She was having fun. I could allow a little danger for now.

But then. when no one was looking, she flew so fast, I couldn't even keep up. She flew up into the sky and caught a little feather floating in the air. I gasped and realized it at that moment. But then as she continued to fly higher, the yells of Ron and Harry frightened her. And there she fell and thankfully only twisted her ankle.

Scarred for life, she never flew again.

I always thought I wouldn't have to tell her. Maybe on my deathbed on something like that, but I should have known someone or something would have let it slip.

Harry knew. Harry apparently always knew.

Ginny saw it.

Why didn't I?

My poor Rose...It's all my fault no one is happy. I'm sorry.

Harry's POV

Hermione and Rose exactly 54 minutes ago.

Everyone decided to leave except for myself and James.

"I don't understand." He finally spoke to me."Why...Why did you...make Rose?"

"I loved her."

"Did you love Mum?"

"I did at one point in time."

"Do you love her now?"

"I question myself about that, son."

"Do you love Lily?"

"I've always loved Lily."

"What about Rose?"

"I love her too."

"Who do you love more?"

I should have answered with I love them equally, but it wasn't true.

"I don't know."

"What happened to this family?"

"We're not a family." Al said plainly looking at the both of us in the living room. "All this built up hatred and drama is not what family is about."

"I always thought we were a good family." James said looking at his watch. "I thought I would bring home a girl one day and connect her to my family. We'd be one big..."

"Well we're not!" Al yelled.

"Al..."

"No! No Dad! We're not a family. We were enver a family. I know I can be a prat sometimes but nothing will ever compare to what everyone else did to...Rose. This is all about Rose, isn't it? Ha! The very first time the world ever focused on Rose since her birth! All she wanted was love and no one could give her that!"

"Shut up, Al!" James yelled.

"Sure we tried to be there for her. But was anyone as close to her as she was to Yuki? Hell she's gotten closer to Scorpius in the past couple of months than to her believed father in the past years!"

"Why can't we just forget all of this and just..." Ginny stood in the doorway and we all glared at her.

"No!" James yelled. "UGH!" He groaned loudly and kicked over Ginny's favorite vase. "You! you only care about yourself and...No! IT's just you isn't it? You don't even love Lily!"

"Lily? What's Lily got to do with it?" Ginny asked. "Weren't you talking about your precious half sister, ROSE?"

"No! This isn't about Rose or Lily or anyone! It's about us! This whole insane family!"

"James just calm down..." I said pulling on his sleeve.

"No DAD. I'm going to let it ALL OUT. You are an attention seeking bitch who only cares about herself because she believes she deserves the best of the best. Well you know what Mum! The best of the best just got you the worst of worst because when the presses find out that you and your oh so grate husband are over, they're going to have a field day with this!"

"JAMES." Ginny screeched. " YOU INSOLENT LITTLE BOY. DON'T BLAME THIS ALL ON ME. YOUR FATHER WAS THE ONE WHO CHEATED ON ME FIRST."

"I find that hard to believe." Al said. "Besides, at least he stopped instead of you, continuing with your affairs."

"Let's all just stop. Now that we know all of each others' feelings, we can move past this." I said wanting the world to end right now.

"That's right. WE shouldn't even get a divor..."

"No. We're getting a divorce, Ginny. I can't stand to lie to myself anymore. We're forever over and I will never come back to you."

"Last time you said that..."

"Last time I said that, there was an evil man on the rise and trying to kill everyone. Now the one that's evil is you and I'm going to leave for some other sap to deal with because, sweetheart, I'm still worn out from the last guy."

I walked upstairs to the master bedroom and started packing my things.

I started with my underwear and then onto some warm clothing to last me a week or two. And there I saw it. The picture of Rose and Lily smiling together as 6 year old Lily gave a snow cone to 4 year old Lily to stop her from crying.

Lily had fallen from a teeter totter and received a tiny bump on her knees.

Rose, being the smart one decided to give her a snow cone and hug away all the pain. They used to be best friends.

They used to actually like each other.

That all changed when Rose was 10 and Lily was 8. Rose had just received a letter from Hogwarts, foretelling her wonderful future at the school. Lily was happy for her cousin but a little sad. Who wouldn't be right? But then Rose couldn't do everything with her. She started reading a little more, shopping a little bit more, growing up a little faster than Lily.

And when she left for Hogwarts, that ended it all. Lily never forgave her for leaving her. Even though Rose wrote to her day after day, she didn't care and started growing up a little too fast. She started wearing more adult clothing and acted like her mother. She tried to get back at Rose by being more girly, trying to be more grown up than her.

And then the fights started happening. Ginny blew it off as jealousy between the girls, but I knew better. Lily missed Rose but didn't know how to tell her.

So it continued until Rose said the words, "I HATE YOU."

And that just set Lily off, causing her her attacks g\to get even worse.

I looked at the picture and put it in my suitcase. I looked at a photo album behind all more clothes and smiled. It was Hermione and Ron's wedding.

Did I want them together back together?

No. They were happier as friends and so was I. So was I.

I thought family was the key to happiness but it seems that happiness is the key to family.
