Previous Chapter Recap

Then suddenly the fireplace came to life and they each pulled back and adjusted themselves just in time to see Hermione's head appeared in the fireplace.

She looked tensed and worried and spoke only three words before disappearing.

"Ron, 's"

Chapter 4

Rose paled froze when she heard those three words, Teddy took charge grabbing both their cloaks, pulling Rose closer and apparated both of them to 's.

They quickly went up to the welcome witch and after getting Ron's floor and ward no., set off to the first floor.

They climbed up to the first floor, Teddy still holding up Rose and soon entered the door next to which was written:

CREATURE INDUCED INJURIES

Bites, stings, burns, embedded spines etc.

They walked in the room full of Weasleys where Molly Weasley was silently crying.

"Grandma, Dad??" asked Rose in a shaken voice.

Molly pointed to the door and Rose entered with Teddy.

The room was done for only one person; Ron Weasley was occupying the only bed in the room.

He was sitting up; resting his back on the pillows behind his back and Hermione was sitting next to him, holding his hand while Harry was pacing the room.

Ron was the first one to see her and Teddy and nudged Hermione.

"Hi Rose, come in hun" said Hermione in a broken voice.

"Mum, Dad what…?" asked Rose in a shaken voice although she was more calm seeing her dad alive.

As she went closer she saw that her dad's right leg was bandaged up heavily and he had scratched all over his arms and face.

"Dad what happened?" asked Rose seeing the bandages while teddy went and stood next to Harry.

"I had a little accident at work Rosie" said Ron with a chuckle.

"I can see its little dad" replied Rose sarcastically. "Seriously tell me what happened".

"Rosie first promise not to react badly" pleaded Ron looking at her.

"Dad, I am not going to promise you anything before you tell me what in the hade's name attacked you" said Rose forcefully.

Ron sighed and said "It was a werewolf Rosie".

"A….were…wolf??" Rose stuttered while Teddy stiffened.

"Yes Rosie a werewolf" replied Ron calmly.

Rose stared at her dad in shock, she couldn't believe it but then her eyes strayed over to Teddy's and he looked her with such an open pleading and emoticon in his eyes that almost made Rose gasp.

Then she remembered that Teddy's father had been a werewolf too and then suddenly she didn't know why but she calmed down, still looking at Teddy.

Hermione noticed Rose and Teddy's silent exchange and smiled a bittersweet smile to herself.

"So you are going to be fine right" asked Rose after a few moments.

"Well apart from the whole being a werewolf thing, I am going to be just fine" Ron grinned.

Rose grinned back.

Surprisingly Ron had acted very maturely about everything and Hermione was beside him always. They soon got over the werewolf thing, George even teasing him about starting his feminine monthlies from now on.

Everyone were calm and all went back home towards evening while Hermione stayed behind with Ron.

Rose had wanted to stay too but Hermione practically pushed her out smiling again when she saw Teddy gathering her up in his arms and apparating away.

He opened the door and walked in leaving her to close the door.

"So….One more thing in common between us" he said after they walked in.

Rose turned around after closing the apartment door "Yes I guess so" Rose smiled at him once again getting the fluttering feeling inside her.

"So….." Teddy walked a few more steps towards her.

"So…." Replied Rose and walked back a few steps with a grin on her face.

Just then tripped and fell backwards and again Teddy caught her.

"You know, you should pay someone to do this job" he said looking down at her.

"Why should I, you do it for free don't you?" observed Rose standing straight again and noticing too late that she pushed her body flush against him.

Teddy's eyes darkened and he said in a hoarse voice "What other choice I have?"

"You could let me fall" whispered Rose since he was so close.

"Never Rose Weasley, you are one person that I would always catch, never let you fall" whispered Teddy and brushed her lips with his.

This time Rose was ready and wound her arms around his neck and kissed him back.

Teddy groaned and walked both of them backwards until Rose's back hit the wall.

Pushing Rose into the wall he picked her up and Rose wrapped both her legs around him, still continuing to kiss him.

Teddy removed the band that kept her hair in a ponytail and with one hand supporting her back, he plunged the other hand in her hair.

Rose gave out a noise similar to a whimper and attacked the buttons on his shirt.

Teddy pulled back at that point and panting heavily, looked down at her "Rose……..too…..soon".

Rose came back to reality with a flushed face and grinned at him, embarrassed.

"Yeah……" she muttered looking away.

Teddy gently guided her face back to him and cupped her face in his hands.

"Never look away from me, you have nothing to be embarrassed about, hell if I was your age, we would have been in the bedroom now" he said with a nervous chuckle.

Rose also chuckled "Don't talk like you're so old, there's only a 6 year difference between us, not 30"

Teddy grinned and placed a quick kiss on her forehead before talking.

"I want to take this slowly and not ruin it Rosie, you mean a lot to me and I would do anything to make this work even if it means taking a cold shower".

Rose giggled "Yeah I think I too need to take a cold shower but……..I could take care of it myself and………".

She couldn't finish that sentence since Teddy growled low in his throat and attacked her mouth once again.

A/N- Werewolf………I bet you didn't see that coming and I know Ron is a bit OOC here but he has had a lot of years to mature and werewolves are considered equal in this world thanks to Teddy's efforts.

Thank you all for your reviews, the deadline I had set for myself was 9th but seeing all those reviews made me finish it one day earlier :D!!
