This one's a bit different. It's a story of Ron and Hermione Weasley with their daughter Rose.

A thank you to ticking-minds and alicenotinwonderland for the reviews.

Homework

"Good haul this year. Thanks for the Broom Compass, it's excellent, beats Hermione's - she's got me a homework planner-"

—Ron Weasley'


Rose Weasley sat with her mouth open, day dreaming over her History of Magic homework. Rose was an intelligent student, so she hardly ever consulted books. She presumed that one read through books would be sufficient, something her mother often scrowled about. So, obviously homeworks were beyond her forte of interests.

Hermione Weasley entered her daughter's room to return the laundry but the sight of her daughter immediately made her irritable.

"Rose Weasley!", she screamed," Is this how irresponsible you are?"

"Mum," Rose mumbled to herself," Why do you want to make my life so miserable?"

But so her mother could hear she said," it's just so boring. And I have to get it done soon."

"Serves you right," Hermione chided," Who asked you to leave it for the last week?"

"I have a life," Rose mumbled, but unfortunately for her, her mother had sharp years.

"Don't take that tone with me, young lady. RON! RON!" Hermione yelled.

Ron came panting up in a hurry.

"What? What is it? What happened?" he asked worried.

"Your daughter seems to think too highly of herself. I think you should ground her."

"Me? Why me?" Ron asked, scandalised by Hermione's order.

"Because, I'm tired of being the strict parent. You should walk in my shoes once in a while. Now, ground her!"

"Err...Umm OK, Rosy you are grounded! No quidditch for a week."

Hermione smacked him on the arm. It was common knowledge that Rose had taken after her mother and was not a very sportive person.

"I don't know what to say," Ron said blankly," Mum used to ground me that way. You suggest something."

Rose giggled.

"See!" Hermione shrieked pointing at Rose," you set such a bad example. I know what we should do, bring out your old homework planned, the one I gave you for Christmas during our fifth year."

"What? Why do you want that?" Ron asked dumbstruck.

"Because, you are going to charm it to make it chase Rose until she has finished all her homeworks and studies."

She turned to Rose, "I can't believe you turned out to be like this. I always assumed you'd follow my footsteps. If you continue like this, you may not even be made prefect. And what a shame that would be, considering both your parents were."

Ron grumbled as he went to the attic to search for the planner. Trust Hermione to make his daughter's life so tough.

"Accio Planner!" Ron said and immediately the book landed with a thud on the ground in front of him.

He picked up the book and opened a page at random," You big second-rater!"It criticised.

Ron laughed to himself. With a wave of his wand, he had created his own improved version of the homework planner and smiling to himself, he left it for Rose.

Rose picked up the planner, sighing. She flipped open the first page, only for the book to say, "Enjoy your holidays now, Worry about homework later."

She giggled as she opened the next page, "Think up a prank. Lots of time left for the weekend."

She smiled turning to pages at random.

"Seventh floor corridor has an interesting room in store."

One of the ones she liked the best was, "It's March, don't forget to buy daddy a gift!"

Soon, she had found so many that her eyes were watering with laughter. She closed the last one which said, "use Wadivasi on Peeves for interesting results."

Rose hopped her way to the study, where Ron sat working.

"Dad! That was so amusing," she said smiling.

"Which was your favourite one?" Ron asked curiously.

"'Time to change the end of feast decorations to that of Gryffindors'. Can't wait to try it out with Al."

"Haha...I'm glad. Just don't tell mum OK? She's a little strict when it comes to work."

"Little?" Rose asked rolling her eyes.

Ron ruffled her hair. "Rose that was the Hermione I fell in love with. And just imagine how it would be without her around."

Rose smiled.

"Love you dad," she said hugging him.

Hermione stood at the door looking at the two people she adored so much. She smiled; it had been so much fun being a Weasley.


So how was this one? A thank you to alicenotinwonderland, for suggesting the theme 'homework'.

Any ideas on what to write next? I have a few myself, but it's always nice to have many suggestions.
