A/N : Wow look at you guys four chapters in two days you lucky ducks! Now I asked you last chap should Scorps have a love interest and I hope you guys are thinking! :)
After the incident on the platform Rosie's dad wouldn't leave her alone he actually took to following her around the house firing questions at her,
"How long have you and Scorpius been friends?"
"Are you sure you're just friends?
"Have you kissed him Rosie?"
"Is he boyfriend material?"
Then he would wander away answering his own question saying "He is boyfriend material isn't he! Of course he is, he's Malfoy's son he's probably a smooth git!" Then he would come back to Rosie saying
"Rose I think you should stay away from him, he could be using you!"
This went on for two whole weeks until Rosies mum had enough and grabbed her dad when he was on his way upstairs to question her again.
"For god's sake Ronald leave the girl alone! She has said she is just good friends with the boy and that is that! Even if they were more than friends he seems like a nice boy and it's her decision anyway, now if you try and go up them stairs to question her again I swear Ronald Weasley I will hex your legs off!"
"But it's Malfoy's son" her dad replied rather pathetically.
"Ronald you need to get over your stupid fued with Draco Malfoy, the war is over now! This rivalry is getting abit ridiculous!"
"Hermione he was a death ea.." he didn't even get to finish his sentence because Hermione cut him off with a brisk but deadly
"I don't want to hear anymore Ronald" and with that she flicked her wand and made the bed sheets fly up the stairs after her.
Ron turned around to find his son Hugo sitting at the table and said "Did I ever tell you your mum's mental? Brilliant definitely but still mental" to which Hugo just replied with a nod of his head.

Rose was sitting at the Kitchen table in Shell Cottage with Aunt Fleur, Her mother ,Aunt Ginny , Grandma Weasley, Victoire, Gabrielle, Little Molly, Lucy and Lily. All the women and young girls had gathered to start discussing the plans for Victoire and Teddy's wedding which would be next summer because Victoire wanted all her cousins in Hogwarts to be present. They had decided to have the wedding on the beach in front of Shell Cottage and quite frankly Rose thought it was a beautiful idea! She had always loved the beach and Shell Cottage and she hoped some day that she could live somewhere like here.
After the plans were discussed the younger girls went out to the beach to play, Rose went and helped Lily, Molly and Lucy to build a sandcastle, she was in the middle of shovelling sand into a bucket when Victoire came over and started talking to her. Despite the age difference Rose always felt that Victoire was the girl she was closet to in the family and she had looked up to her from a very young age.
"So I heard you're being abit of a rebel and hanging around with the Malfoy boy" Victoire said with a smile
"Oh Vic my dad hasn't stopped talking about it since the day they picked me up from the train!" an exasperated Rose said
"Wow that's like four weeks now!" laughed Vic
Oh my god yeah! It's been a month since I've seen Scorpius! That's passed quickly, Rose thought to herself.
"Yeah four weeks I suppose! It actually hasn't seemed like that long"
"So are you going to bring Scorpio to the wedding" Vic asked nicely
"Scorpius" Rose corrected "Yeah I asked him would he be interested before school and he said if the family didn't mind he would come" Seeing Vic's sly look Rose added "Just as friends though"
Vic burst out laughing and Rose looked and felt quite offended,
"I'm sorry Rosie I couldn't help it, it's just that that's what I used to say whenever anyone asked me about Teddy" Vic said smiling
Rosie blushed which didn't go unnoticed by Victoire,
"Do you like him Rosie? As more than a friend" she asked sitting crossed legged beside Rosie
"No I really don't think so, I mean there isn't much not to like – he's handsome, funny, intelligent, witty , kind and caring" Rosie ticked of his good qualities on her fingers "But I don't feel like I want to grab him and snog him senseless or anything" Vic couldn't keep in the laughter at that statement
"Rosie I'm talking from experience here, I do really see a future for the two of you and I want an owl the minute you feel like your feelings are changing because I know how hard it is to come to terms with all that and I can help" she touched Rosie's hand as she said this and Rose felt a rush of love for her cousin "And I want to be your maid of honour when you get married" he added with a smirk.
"And what would make you think that you're worthy of such an honour?" Rosie asked using the pompous tone that Scorpius sometimes used
"Um well maybe because you're going to be mine!" Vic threw the comment out there like it was nothing before turning to a shocked Rosie with a big grin on her face,
"What are you talkin...OH MY GOD!" Rosie suddenly realised what Vic meant by these word and she jumped into her waiting arms in a flurry of "are you serious"'s and "Thank you so much"'s and "I love you so much"
"Vic are you serious? This better not be some sick joke!" Rosie said sternly
"Rosie why would I joke with you about something like this! You know I find it rather difficult to make girl friends and other than teddy you're one of the best friends I have so there's no one else I would rather have by my side on my wedding day! Plus you're the only cousin that looks remotely like me, I swear if I wasn't part Veela we could be sisters" she joked
Rosie thought this statement over for a minute or two, She looked like Vic? But Vic's beautiful! She's just plain old Rosie Weasley with the red hair and the freckles,
Vic seemed to read Rosie's mind and she said in a stern voice that nearly matched her own
"Rosie Weasley do not start with that "I'm plain old Rose" stuff, why will you not listen to anyone when they tell you that you are beautiful?"
"Because I'm not" she mumbled but she knew better than to test Vic so she just left it there.

After that night in Shell Cottage the summer seemed to slow down considerably so it was with great joy when Rosie's mother came into her room one morning saying there was only a week until Hogwarts so they better go to Diagon Alley tomorrow, Rosie asked her mother if it would be alright to meet up with Scorpius in Diagon Alley and she said yes that would be alright so Rose immediately sat down and penned a letter to Scorpius,
Scorpius,
Only a week until Hogwarts! I can't wait to go back and be able to spend the evenings exploring the grounds again! My mum just said we are going to Diagon Alley tomorrow to get my stuff so will you be able to come tomorrow as well? My mum said she's looking forward to meeting your mum and she said that dad would be looking forward to seeing your dad but I get the feeling she may have been joking about that because of the look on Dad's face. I really hope you can come!
Rose
After that she wrote out a list of all the stuff she needed to get in Diagon Alley
Robes- Madame Malkins
Spine of lionfish and essence of belladonna- Apothecary
Standard book of spells grade 4- Florish and Blotts
Dozen rolls of parchment and new quills- School Supplies Shop
I think that's all I need, she thought to herself. Soon Hermes returned with a letter from Scorpius.
Rose,
I know I can't wait either! Yeah we were going to go as well anyway, My mum said she is looking foward to meeting your mum too and my dad...well I suppose he will be polite. I can't wait to see you! We will meet you at Florean Fortescue's ice cream parlour at 1 o' clock tomorrow.
Scorpius
As Rose went to bed she couldn't help but be excited, she would get to see Scorpius tomorrow! And she was going what to Hogwarts in a week! Life was good.
x-x-x-x
The next morning Rose woke up decidedly excited. She got dressed wearing a pair of jeans and a t-shirt with a sweatshirt over it and she pulled her hair up into a ponytail. She then went down the stairs to see her mother helping Hugo put his jacket on and her dad looking rather moody,
"Oh Ronald get a hold of yourself! You are 38 years old you need to get over a silly little school feud"
Her father then grumbled something inaudible before stepping into the fireplace and shouting "Diagon Alley" followed by Rose's mother and brother and then finally it was her turn.
They arrived at Florean Fortescue's ice cream parlour a exactly one o' clock to find Scorpius already there with his mother and father.
"Granger, Weasley" Scorpius' dad acknowledged Rose's mum and dad with a nod in their direction
"Draco" Her mother responded with a nod while her father just glared until her mother smacked him in the ribs and he said "Malfoy"
"And you must be Astoria, pleasure to meet you" Rose's mother said warmly
"And you must be Hermione" Astoria replied with equal warmth
Rose and Scorpius set off to do their shopping leaving the adults to talk (or glare in their dad's case)
"How has your summer been Scorpius?" asked Rose
"Uneventful" Scorpius answered "Marco was over a few times but that's about it, and yours?"
"Oh it's been fairly good, Vic asked me to be her maid of honour" Rose said with a smile
"Really? That's brilliant Rose! I'm really happy for you"
"And she said there's no problem with you coming to the wedding! She actually invited you!"
"Really?" Scorpius asked in surprise "That was really nice of her! I wouldn't miss it for the world" he added with a smile
They got all the shopping that they needed and they started back towards the ice cream parlour to find their parents and get an ice cream. When they walked in the sight that met their eyes amazed them, Hermione was sitting with Astoria discussing beauty potions which wasn't overly surprising as they knew they would get along but their fathers were sitting together bantering (YES BANTERING!) about Quidditch!
"Weasley the chudley cannon have as much chance of winning this year as I have of being the minister for magic!"
"Better start an election campaign then Malfoy!"
And then the most surprising thing of all happened- they laughed! Ron Weasley and Draco Weasley sat together laughing WITH each other rather than AT each other!
Rose and Scorpius just shared a looked that seemed to say adults!

This is it! Rosie thought to herself as she stood on platform nine and ¾ with her parents, hugo, Teddy and Vic, I'm going back to Hogwarts!
The whistle blew and Rose started picking up her things but before she could get on the train Vic caught her arm,
"Rosie I want you to be careful" Vic said "Teddy is the love of my life and my best friend but that doesn't mean that we didn't have a few fights along the way! If you and Scorpius have a fight just remember that to forgive and forget is the best policy and don't dwell on it" Vic added knowingly
"Okay I promise Vic and I will keep you posted with letters"
"Make sure you do Rosie" she said giving her a kiss on the cheek.
The whistle blew again and Rose got onto the train, after waving bye to her parents and Vic the train started moving
She was on her way to Hogwarts!
