Rose Lavender Weasley
Warning: Swearing involvement read at own risk. Also Ron may not stay likeable and I will apologise prior to the incident that caused the change in opinion oh and I do not own Harry Potter! I just stuff around with Ms. Rowling's characters.
After Mrs. Aviena said that only two years after our wedding to we had to have a child I went temporarily deaf. I was only 18, I wanted to go to college in September, what if he Scorpius wanted to have more than one child thoughts like these were racing through my mind and I didn't notice when she stopped and Scorpius came over to talk to me.
"Rose, myself and my family would be deeply honoured if yourself and your family could join us for dinner tomorrow night."
"Wait. Do you mean all of us as in the Weasleys and the Potters?" I asked. He looked over to his mother and I followed his gaze in time enough to see her nodding. He then turned around to face me. "I think that would be splendid but please not to formal."
—Time jump—
I spent the rest of the day dress shopping with all my female cousins (Lily Potter, Victoirie Weasley-Deleclour, Dominique Weasley-Delacour, Molly Weasley II, Lucy Weasley, Roxanne Weasley) and three good friends (Alicia Longbottom, Felicity Malfoy, Arianna Wood). We were about to floo to my place when I found Albus' barn owl (Mercury) sitting on the lid of the trash can in the leaky cauldron. It was holding a very thick envelope bearing my name in what I recognised as my father's writing. The notes inside were from all of my aunts,uncles and even some of my cousins. The first was from Bill, Fleur and Louis. Bill wrote:
Rose,
your dad told me who you're going to be married to. Normally I would tell you to avoid this arrangement at all costs but due to the fact that Scopius Malfoy was also raised by Hermione Granger (who I remember from when she was a teenager) I have some hope. You have our well wishes see you tomorrow at dinner.
Love, Bill
P.S. If anyone says different family or not I will lock them in a high security vault.
Fleur wrote:
Rose,
I know that I have no say in what you do but I remember Hermione and she was a wonderful young woman. She may have changed but I highly doubt that as she was an extremely head strong woman and the Hermione that I knew would have raised her children as such so go ahead and get married. I hope that in two months I will be able to send letters to my niece Rose Malfoy. See you tomorrow night.
Love,
Fleur Delacour-Weasley
and Louis wrote:
Rose,
No matter what do not marry Scorpius Malfoy!
From,
Louis.
"No matter what I will never be able to get over how rude Louie is sometimes!" Dominique shouted after reading the letter.
"Neither will I Dom, but unless Rosie wants to go ahead with Dad's threat then we can't do much about it. And personally I don't want to lose my brother." Victoirie replied.
"Anyway Rose what do the others say?" Lily asked.
Next were from Charlie, Percy and Audrey. Charlie wrote:
Rose,
Go with your heart and ignore the rest. Okay? I'm sorry I won't be able to make it to dinner.
All my love,
Charlie Weasley.
Percy wrote:
Rose,
When the ministry partners you through the law they pair you so that you will work well together and you will be able to find happiness. I think that you should be told this if only to reassure you that Scorpius Malfoy is a good person.
All the best,
Percy Weasley
and Audrey wrote:
Rose,
Trust your instincts. Okay? We will see you tomorrow night.
Love,
Aunty Audrey.
"Dad, you don't always have to stick by your work! Loosen up!" Lucy exclaimed.
"Luce I agree but for now I think that we should go and get a room because if this sort of emotion is what The Burrow is like then Rose will be safer here." Molly stated.
"Yeah, let's do that. I'll pay. Keep on reading Rose!" Alicia said.
The next were from Gorge, Angelina and Fred II.
Gorge wrote:
Rose,
Dearest niece, don't listen to Ron. Okay my guess is that Ron is going to tell you that you are not allowed to go through with this marriage. Thing is... you don't really have a choice but to ignore him. Why the ministry decided that a Weasley and a Malfoy getting married was a good idea I don't know but I trust Kingsley enough to encourage you to do this and tell him that you are still going to college in September.
Love,
Gorgeous Gorge.
Angelina wrote:
Dear Rosie,
As one of your godmothers I am going to tell you out right go with your gut. Okay? Do what your gut is saying!
Love,
Stupidly gorgeous Gorge's wife Angelina
Fred II wrote:
Rose,
I reckon that you will be told this by all of your male cousins and your dad; WHATEVER YOU DO DON 'T MARRY SCORPIUS MALFOY!
Love Fred II
"I don't believe my brother! That stupid idiot is completely out of order! But then... so are the rest of them." Roxanne shouted.
"Listen, Rose my brother is not that bad! Okay? He will look after you, care for you and he will above all love you to pieces and the same will apply to your children! Oh, and Lily if Tom hears us shouting like that then he will probably kick us out so a few mufflaito charms wouldn't go astray." Felicity said.
"I know Fie! Unfortunately a lot of the men in my family don't. Anyway I'll keep on reading them, shall I?" I said trying to reassure my newfound friend.
"Yes! Please do! I want to see James's reaction." Lily said.
The next letter was different first off there was only one letter and it was bright red... 'Oh my god! Please tell me my father didn't just send me a howler!' No such luck because the minute I realised what the thing was it had started shouting and what it said was something that a girl's father should never write or say to his daughter:
"ROSE LAVENDER WEASLEY,
IF YOU GO THROUGH WITH THIS MARRIAGE THEN DON'T BOTHER COMING BACK TO THE HOUSE! IF YOU DO THEN YOU HAVE JUST DICRACED THE FAMILY NAME! IF YOU GO THROUGH WITH THE MARRIAGE THEN YOU CAN DAMN WELL FORGET THAT YOU ARE A DAUGHTER OF A WEASLEY BECAUSE YOU WILL BE DISOWNED! I WON'T CARE IF YOU DIE IN THE COLD AND DARK WHEN YOU'RE A MALFOY! BECAUSE NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO I WILL NOT BE RELATED TO ANY SORT OF MALFOY! UNDERSTAND?
YOUR FATHER,
RON WEASLEY"
After the letter finished it didn't burst into flames. It just folded up like it thought that I would like to read it again but even if I wanted to I couldn't have because of how much I was crying. 'Why would Dad do that? Who would say that to their own daughter? What gave him the right to threaten me? His only daughter? I mean sure he might still be greaving Mum but still if he still wanted a woman that reminded him of her then threatening the only woman who was able to do that was the stupidest thing that he could possibly do!' I was in such shock that I didn't notice my friends and cousins hugging me until I had been sitting there with them all hugging me for about ten minutes. In this time I resolved to call my masculine creator by his first name and not call him anything along the lines of Dad or Father.
"Whoa, girls? I kinda need to breathe." Was my attempt to get them off me. I heard a giggle and saw Fie roll her eyes before they all got off me.
"Is there anything else?" Ariana asked.
"Not from Ron or Hugo. No." I replied.
"Okay so only Dad, Mum, Teddy, James and Albus. Let's do this." Lily said.
Harry and Ginny wrote a joint letter:
Dear Rose,
We're sure Angelina told you to go with your gut and knowing Ronald he sent you a howler telling you that if you go through with the marriage then he will disown you. Well Harry here doesn't believe he's thinking straight but Ginny reckons that he is being completely serious and if he is then our place is open to you and if you do choose to stay here it will be completely Ronald Weasley free. We promise!
Love your other godmother and your only godfather,
Harry and Ginny Potter
Teddy wrote:
Dear Rosie,
I think that you and Scorpius would be perfect for each other. My Mum being his Dad's cousin I went to go and see him over Christmas break (without Harry and Ginny knowing of course) and when ever I told him about you and/or Albus he would run and ask his parents if he could go back to England with me and go to meet "Wosie" and "Awbus". Hermione would always say 'maybe next time my little scorpion'. He was raised Italy so he should at least know how to cook. His magical education took place at 'Accademia Italiana di magia' which translates to Italian Academy of Magic and apparently he learned the patronus charm in fifth year. Can you believe it he was fifteen years old when he cast his first patronus not as impressive as Harry but still). His patronus takes the form of a stallion like your's takes the form of a mare. Kinda like James I and Lily I were a matching pair (a stag and a doe) you and Scorpius match (a stallion and a mare) and I'm willing to bet that you have already decided to go through with the marriage. Well see y'all tomorrow night.
Love you,
Edward 'Teddy' Remus Lupin
James wrote:
Rosie,
You've been told enough times that you can't/shouldn't marry Scorpius Malfoy well I won't be the first to tell you that no matter what we will support your decision. No matter what!
Love,
James Sirius
Albus wrote:
Rose,
If you have already read Mum and Dads letter then you know that our home is open to you. If you've read Teddy's letter then you know that you and Scorpius belong together and if you've read James' letter then you know that we will always support you and now you're reading my letter. Do you remember our first sorting ceremony? Remember how I got sorted into Slytherin and you into Ravenclaw? Remember the shock when people saw James (a Griffindor), you ( a Ravenclaw) and me (a Slytherin) all calmly walking around, talking politely with each other and the proffesors especially when we talked to the heads of house and then Alicia got to school, was sorted into Hufflepuff and we would all talk and be really nice to each other and we were ready to defend each other? Remember the seven years of rumours and whispers about us until graduation were we finally got to tell the school how we were related? Do you remember it all? Now think about the bravery that it took to get up and face those rumours, the wisdom it took to dodge them, the loyalty it took to stick together and the ambition it took to get past them and get on with life. Now look me in the eyes and tell me truthfully that you don't have the courage, the ambition, the loyalty or the wisdom to do this. Rose Lavender Weasley I grew up with you, I played with you, I went to school with you, I will probably die on the same day as you and I swear, all the time that I am able to spend with you, your children and your husband between now and then will be spent next to you, Scorpius and you children. In short what I'm trying to say is; be brave, be wise, be ambitious and be loyal to your heart but above all forget what we think and go for what you want. I will tell you this all over again tomorrow night and on your wedding day so see y'all tomorrow night!
Love,
Albus Severus
P.S. Teddy and I have a bet on who could write the longest letter I said I could he said otherwise.
We all smiled when I finished Albus's letter. After that we all just went to bed. Me promising myself that I would write to with the results on the bet Albus and Teddy as well as scolding them for betting on this of all things
