Rose entered the assistant living home her grandmother was living at and went to the front desk. She smiled at the lady behind the desk. "Hi, I'm here to see Jean Granger," The woman looks her up and down.
"May I ask who is visiting her?" The woman asked. She saw Rose belly.
Rose knew that she is wondering if she was here for money or something. "I am her granddaughter, Rose Malfoy. I had called and wrote about visiting her. I think you will see that I am allow to see her."
The woman narrowed her eyes before looking at the list of visitors for Jean Granger. She grabbed a clipboard. "Please sign in," She handed it to Rose. Rose took a pen from the canister on the table. She made sure to place her left hand on the table for the woman to see her rings. "She is in room 205," She took the clipboard from Rose and gave her a badge that said visitor. Rose nodded and left.
Rose knocked on her grandmother's door. "Enter," Her grandmother's voice came from the room. Rose entered the room to see that her grandmother was in the room with a nurse. "April, this is my granddaughter Rose Malfoy," Rose and the nurse nodded to each other. "Take a seat Rose," Her grandmother pointed to a chair in front of her. The nurse kept staring at her. "Yes, my granddaughter is young and is going to have a baby in a few months." April turned to Grandmother Jean.
"Mrs. Granger," April smiled. "I was just seeing where she gets her beautiful looks from." Rose let out a little laugh. That was a nice save. Grandmother Jean rolled her eyes. "I'll just leave you two."
Rose and Grandmother Jean watched as April left the room. After the door was closed, Rose pulled out some butterbeer for her grandmother. Jean had asked Rose to bring some for their first meeting. Rose pulled out a bottle of pumpkin juice for herself. Rose watched as her grandmother's eyes widen at the bottle.
"How long has it been since you had butterbeer?" Rose asked after she opened it for her.
"Too many years," Grandmother took a sip and closed her eyes as she was remembering the taste.
Rose reached in her bag and pull out a notepad and a quick quill. She got them settle on the coffee table. "Now, Grandmother, I would like to start…" Before Rose could finish her sentence, her grandmother grabbed her hand.
"Where did you get this ring?" She pointed to Rose's wedding band.
"Scorpius and I found it at Smith's Jeweler's in Diagon Ally," Rose had a question in her eyes.
"Can I see that?" Rose nodded and took off her ring and handed it Grandmother Jean. She looked on the inside and started to cry.
"What is it, Grandmother?" Rose asked.
"There was a rumor in my family that there was a pair of wedding rings that would prove they are soulmates. My great-grandmother told me that the rings were given to couple in the family that didn't think they were perfect for each other. No one knew what happen to the couple and the rings were lost forever. No one but me believe in the story because my family thought that my grandmother was crazy. I think that it was part of me being a witch, knowing when I see magic."
"What does it have to do with my ring?" Rose asked. She had thought she knew but she wanted her grandmother to tell her.
"You don't know that this Latin. Do they still teach Latin at Hogwarts?" Grandmother asked. Rose shook her head. "Stupid of them, but this reads soul lover," She handed the ring back to Rose. "Would you like to hear the story of the rings?"
Rose checked her quick quill and notepad. "Yes, please."
"You know your wizarding history," Rose nodded. She hated History of Magic, but she made it through five years of it. "As you know the wizarding world went into hiding in 1692," Rose nodded. "Well in 1700's my several times grandfather met a beautiful young woman. His family did not approve of the match. As my great-grandmother told it, she said that he was special in some way. Later when I went to Hogwarts, I looked up my grandfather to see that he was a wizard and was disowned for marrying a muggle girl. The girl didn't want him to lose his family, so he made the rings for them to prove that he was in love with her, and she was all that he needed in his life. The rings were lost before I was born. I was told the story from my great-grandmother. I was the last to believe the story, I never thought that I would see the rings in real life or that my granddaughter would be wearing the rings."
Rose looked at her ring and couldn't wait until she told the story to Scorpius. She knew that he would enjoy it. Rose smiled. "Thank you for telling me that story. I just have one question; wouldn't his kids be witches and wizards?"
Grandmother Jean smiled. "He was a half-blood or less. His father was half-blood, who married muggle girl. So, he needed to marry a witch, but he didn't. You can look him up." Her grandmother gave her a name to look up later.
"Alright, it is your turn now. Tell me about yourselves," Rose smiled. They spent the next two hours talking about the start of her story. Rose knew that she had a good start on this. They finished just as Grandmother Jean got her Hogwarts letter. "Grandmother Jean, I think that we should tell my mum about you."
Grandmother Jean sighed. "I think you are right," Rose nodded.
Rose gathered her things. "I will come back next week to continue your story," Grandmother Jean nodded. Rose kissed her grandmother on the cheek before leaving her room.
Rose was making her way to the front of when she heard her name. She turned around to see April, the nurse that was helping her grandmother. "Can I talk to you?" She asked. Rose nodded and followed her to an empty room. She closed the door behind her with a wand. Rose gave her look. April smiled. "Yes, I am a witch. I was trained at St. Mungo's. I'm put of a program that helps witches and wizards in the muggle world."
"Does my grandmother know?" Rose asked.
"I think she suspects when I give her some things," April said. "I didn't think that Jean was related to you. I remember seeing your wedding in the paper."
"My mother is Hermione Granger-Weasley, a hero of the last war," Rose was surprised that April didn't know that.
"I know who your family is, it's just I didn't think that you were related to Jean." She held up her hands in defense.
Rose smiled. "I just found out recently that she was a witch. I thank you for caring for my grandmother." Rose turned and left the room, then the building.
"Good morning, beautiful," Rose woke up to find Scorpius' kissing her leg and making his way up her body.
Rose let out a moan and closed her eyes. "Good morning. Don't you have to work today?" Rose asked. She didn't mind that Scorpius was home, but it was Friday and he usually worked.
Scorpius looked up and smiled wickedly. "No, do you know what day it is today?"
Rose looked around the room for the day, she remembered there was no calendar in the room. "It's Friday," Rose smiled. Rose had just remembered that today was Valentine's Day.
Scorpius pushed up her shirt to reveal her belly and looked in her eyes. "It's also Valentine's Day and I'm going to romance you today," Scorpius pushed up her shirt over her breasts, that were extremely sensitive, and Rose let out a hiss. Rose sat up as he took off her shirt and dropped it on the floor.
Rose felt that Scorpius only had on his boxers as he covered her. "What do you have planned for today?" Rose voice hitched as she felt him.
Scorpius kissed her before saying, "First I'm going to make love to you, then I'm going to make the rest of the day special for you."
Rose wrapped her arms around his neck. "I can go for that," She smiled as she brought his lips down to hers.
After Scorpius made love to her, Rose fell asleep. She knew it was in part of the baby. She was more tired now that she was creating a baby. When she woke, Scorpius had a tray of breakfast for her. It had all her favorites on it. Rose sat up and Scorpius placed the tray on her lap. She picked up a strawberry and ate it. Scorpius reached for one and Rose slapped his hand away. Scorpius gave her a frown. Rose only smiled. "I'm carrying your child," Rose took another bite of the strawberry.
Scorpius placed a hand on her belly. "Jason, do you think mummy should give Daddy a strawberry?" The baby moved and Scorpius took that as a yes. "Jason said yes," Scorpius looked up at Rose to see tears in her eyes. "Rose," He said her name. He didn't know what else to say. He knew she could break in tears at any time because of her hormones.
Rose gave him a watery smile. "This is all so real. We have a name for him and before we know it, he will be here." Scorpius took her in his arms. He knew she needed to let it out. "We have nothing ready for him," Rose leaned back. "The room for him is still bare," Rose looked in Scorpius' eyes. "Are we going to be ready?"
Scorpius knew that tomorrow that his family and her family were throwing a baby shower for her and Vic. It was the reason he couldn't take Rose out of town. "Yes, we still have time. Let us enjoy this day and next weekend we will go and spend money for the baby room." Rose nodded. Scorpius took a breath like he was wiping his brow. He got through that. "Finish breakfast because I have a day planned for us," Scorpius took a strawberry. Rose gave him a look.
The rest of the day, Scorpius took her out to do her favorite things. They went to Rose's favorite muggle bookstore. They had lunch at a little café. After lunch, Scorpius took her dress shopping to find the dress that she was going to need for tonight. He had something plan for her. After finding the perfect dress, they headed home to find two dozen white and yellow lilies. Rose gave Scorpius a look with a raised eyebrow as she took a lily and smelled it. Scorpius wrapped his arms around her. "I love you," He whispered in her ear.
Rose leaned back into him. "I love you, too."
They stood there until Scorpius pocket watch went off at the hour. Rose took a breath and broke away from Scorpius. Rose took a flower and her new dress and made her way upstairs to the shower. Scorpius watched her go before putting the rest of the flowers in smaller vases around the house.
Scorpius made his way upstairs and watched Rose putting on the dress. He didn't say word as he watched her. He felt that his heart could burst of loving her so much. He stuffed his hands in his pockets. They were going to have a baby in two months. She made him want to be a better man. He knew that they would have bumps in their path, but they will have to work together. He hoped that they would be good parents to Jason and any other kids they decide to have. The little guy was already loved from his parents to his aunt and uncle. Scorpius was glad that Teddy and Vic were having a baby, so Jason wouldn't be spoil.
"Scorpius," Rose said. "What are you thinking?"
Scorpius smiled. "How amazing you are," Rose blushed. He loved that he could still do that to her. Scorpius walked in the room and placed a kiss on her cheek.
"You are pretty amazing yourself," Rose smiled. "Now change so we can go to dinner," She pushed him to the closet. Scorpius laughed as he went to change.
They appeared in front of a fancy restaurant. Scorpius took Rose hand and placed it on his sleeve as he walked in the restaurant. He gave the host his name. The host took them to a booth, Scorpius helped Rose in her seat before taking his own, he grabbed her hand as the host offered some wine. They declined. The host left them to look over the menu. The waitress came over and took their order.
"So, Scorpius we need a middle name for our son," Rose smiled. Scorpius let out a moan.
He lifted the hand that he was holding to his lips. "Let's not talk about Jason tonight. So how was your visit to your grandmother's?"
Rose narrowed her eyes at him as he changed the subject but then she smiled because she remembered the story about the rings that her grandmother had told her. Rose took his hand and took off his wedding ring. She looked on the inside. "When I was talking to my grandmother, I found out the story of our rings," Scorpius saw the faint line on his finger before looking at his wife.
"What story?" He asked. Rose showed him the saying in the ring and told him what it meant before telling the story of the ring. After the story, Scorpius looked at the ring before putting it back on. Scorpius leaned over the table and kissed Rose. "So, we are soulmates," Rose nodded. Scorpius took his seat again as the waitress brought their food. She smiled as she walked away.
They spent the rest of the night, talking about their plans for the future. After dinner Scorpius and Rose took a walk in a park before going home. When they got home, Scorpius led Rose to their room where they slowly took off their clothes before falling into each other's arms. There was something new to their loving making. Rose went to sleeping thinking what a wonderful husband she had. He made this day special, and she hoped that after Jason was born, they keep doing this.
