A/N: Hello! In the midst of the COVID-19 and the quarantine that's accompanying it, I figured I would upload a couple of chapters to give you something to read. Please note that these are some of the first chapters I ever posted for this story, and a few months ago I removed them because I knew I could improve them. So, if you're new here, welcome! And enjoy some new material. If not, I hope you enjoy these edits. I'll be sporadically uploading some older/updated chapters in the days and weeks to come while I finish writing the new chapter I have planned. Thanks for reading!


"Rose, I don't think I can do this,"

"Of course you can," Rose said rolling her eyes. "You've watched me do it hundreds of times. Honestly, Scorpius, it isn't difficult."

"Isn't there some sort of spell for this? I don't see why this needs to be done the muggle way. There's hardly anyone here!" Scorpius said as he continued gazing at the muggle monstrosity in front of him.

"For the last time Scorpius, magic isn't always the answer! You're an intelligent man, I'm sure you can figure this out," Rose said, hardly looking up from the Prophet's latest issue.

"I don't understand why you can't help me!" Scorpius whined toying discreetly with his wand.

"I can't help you because you insisted on joining me at Christmas at my mum's parents and I told you that we had to drive because we were going to be surrounded by muggles. You begged me to let you drive because you were just itching to use your license and it's practically a rule that the person driving has to fill the car at the filling station!" the redhead continued, still not looking up from her article.

Scorpius sighed loudly and reached across Rose's lap for her wallet and slipped out a small piece of plastic. She looked up at him and gave him an encouraging smile seeing as for once he'd selected the right card.

Wordlessly he approached the fuel dispenser. He checked behind him to see Rose eyeing him curiously. He shot her a smile and watched as she directed her gaze back down to her reading. Doing his best to be discreet, he unhooked the nozzle from its holder, approached the car, slid his wand from its holster and muttered a simple refilling charm under his breath. He waited a few moments, and then without a second glance, he tucked the nozzle back in its place and re-entered the driving seat.

Rose looked up at him smiling widely. "See, I told you that you could figure it out!" Scorpius rolled his eyes and smirked.

"Of course I could. You said it yourself, I'm quite intelligent, not to mention incredibly handsome." He said as he started the car.

Rose scoffed but nonetheless reached across her armrest to quickly press a kiss to his cheek. "I never once called you handsome. Just get us to Hampstead." Scorpius said nothing but grabbed her hand and pressed the back of it to his lips

Intertwining their fingers he kept his eyes on the road and the only sounds that filled the car were those of the light music from the radio and Rose's fingers occasionally flipping the page. Though he might not have an extraordinary knowledge of muggle life he did know one thing. Rose was everything, and there was no way he could imagine this life without her doing it with him.
