Author's Note: Okay, guys, thanks so much for the reviews! This is the last chapter, but I'll probably start a new story, most likely about Next Generation characters (they may not be cannon...) Read and review, it makes me happy and I really appreciate it! Thanks so much!

3 InLoveWithFred

Two figures appeared in the dewy grass of the morning. The one with icy blond hair appearing on a spot where a golden heart was stained into the grass, the red haired one appearing at the edge of the bluebell clearing. Rose didn't run to Scorpius this time, but walked, the thought of having to return to their parents very formidable.

"How was it for you?" she asked Scorpius softly.

"Fine." he replied, but she knew it was a bit worse than simply 'fine.' He paused for a moment before finishing his response. "I wish there was no rivalry. Malfoys and Weasleys, Purebloods and Muggleborns. They're tearing us apart, Rose! Its not fair!"

"No, it isn't really?" she said softly, sounding a bit like Luna Lovegood. "I suppose we can't really control it, can we?" Scorpius thought for moment, pondering his girlfriend's words.

"Maybe we can. Maybe we can untie the Weasleys and the Malfoys. Who knows?"

"Unite Weasleys and Malfoys.." muttered Rose, not to SCorpius, but more to herself. her eyes lit up like a blazing fire, and without warning, turned on her heel and Apparated. Scorpius heard the pop as Rose spun around and disappeared into thin air. He stood, bewildered for a moment, pondering the last words his girlfriend spoke before she vanished. 'Unite Weasleys and Malfoys...' she had muttered, Unite Weasleys and Malfoys...' Scorpius's eyes lit up too, but his eyes with a shimmering ice, and he too disappeared from the clearing.

Rose re-appeared in the front garden of her home and strode into the house. She unlocked the door with 'Alohamora' and strode in.

"Mum, Dad, I-" But she stopped suddenly, finding that her parents were not in the living room, waiting for her, as they had last time. She found only her younger brother Hugo, smirking with a Chocolate Frog in his hand and his legs kicked up on the coffee table.

"Hey, Rose." he said. "How's Scorpy?"

"Be quiet, Hugo." she snapped. "Where are Mum and Dad?"

"At the Malfoys'" Rose's eyes widened in surprise.

"What do you mean?" she asked urgently. "Why are they there.

"I dunno, but Dad said he was going to 'beat Malfoy's ass' for letting his son date you." Hugo smirked immaturely, but Rose ignored him. Dad's at the Malfoys', Dad's at the Malfoys'. That meant his father was probably currently dueling Draco Malfoy. Rose, for the who-knows-what time within the last day, Apparated.

Scorpius appeared on the walkway to his home, this time without fear. He felt as if he had been given the courage of a Gryffindor as he strode to the manor, more than ready to tell his father exactly what he thought of his stupid rivalry with the Weasleys. He opened the unlocked door to the manor, and strode in.

"Dad, I-" but he was unable to finish his sentence because his jaw had dropped about a mile. Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger were sitting in his living room, having tea with his parents.

"Oh, hello, Scorpius." said his mother calmly. "This is Mr. Weasley and Mrs. Granger." Hermione Granger stood and extended her hand to him.

"Hello, Scorpius. Its very nice to meet you. Please call me Hermione." Scorpius swallowed and took her hand.

"Thank you, Mrs Gr-, er, Hermione." said Scorpius in reply. "Its nice to meet you as well." Hermione smiled and sat down. Ron Weasley was standing too now.

"Hello Scorpius." he said, not too coldly. "My name is Ron Weasley."

"Its very nice to meet you, sir." Scorpius said politely as he outstretched his hand. He saw Ron's eyes dart to it, and in a second that felt too long, Ronald Weasley took the pale hand that Scorpius Malfoy offered him. In the moment that their hands were connected, the fiery brown eyes of Ron Weasley that so resembled his daughters, and the icy gray eyes of Scorpius Malfoy met, and in them was a message; Unite Weasleys and Malfoys. Their hands broke apart, and at that moment, Rose Weasley burst in, looking alarmed, breathing hard. Everyone turned to look at her, and she blushed vividly.

"Hello." said Astoria. "You must be Rose." She stood and held out her hand. "I'm very glad to meet you." Rose looked flustered, but she accepted the hand that Astoria offered.

"Very nice to meet you, ma'am." she said with a polite smile, and Astoria returned it warmly. "Please call me Astoria, Rose."

"Okay." said Rose. "Thank you." Everyone's eyes suddenly darted to Draco, who was standing rather rigidly. Rose held forth her hand, with it proffering a union between two families, which had already been halfway created. Draco looked at it, considering it for half a second, and took the hand. They shook.

"Its very nice to meet you, Mr. Malfoy." Draco nodded.

"You too, Rose." Scorpius and Rose beamed. Astoria and Hermione were smiling. Even Draco and Ron weren't scowling. Funny isn't it, how two things so different, like Weasleys and malfoys, or fire and ice, can coexist, even prosper, together?
