Hermione used a spell to cut the grass in both the front lawn and the backyard. She cleaned the house and made a large two-story cake with white frosting with pink roses and pink and green icing that read “Happy 13th Birthday Rose”. She decorated the living room with matching white, pink and green balloons and streamers and table cloths. All the curtains were opened letting natural light in and there was not a speck of dust to be found. A long table was set up under a large window that looked outside at the patio where the presents would be placed.
“Mum” Rose came down in her new party gown “How do I look?” It was a white sleeveless dress with a purple sash tied around her waist and the dress flared down to her knees that had little purple flowers on the bottom hem. She wore delicate white gladiator sandals and a thick white fabric headband with purple flowers that matched the bottom of the dress.
“You look amazing” Hermione said around the lump in her throat, she was looking at her teenage daughter…she was no longer a little girl and never would be again “Let’s fix your hair” She wiped a tear away.
“Mum” Rose looked concerned “Are you okay?”
“Yes” Hermione said through a sob and wiped another tear away “It’s just…my little girl is growing up”
“Not really” Rose said “Just another year” That’s what you’ve always said “There isn’t any growing up it’s just another year gone”
“Let me fix your hair” Hermione said with a smile “And I think at thirteen you can handle some light make-up, what do you think?”
Ginny and Harry came over early with their kids and of course Ginny made a show of loving Rose’s clothes and hair. Her dark red hair was left hanging down her back in long spiral curls and pushed back with the headband. She wore mascara and eyeliner with a light pink lip gloss on her lips to make them pop. They put their presents down on the table and hugged her before they got drinks and sat in the kitchen with Hermione.
“A co-ed party” Harry said “How’s Ron taking it?”
“He hasn’t visited once since she came here last month” Hermione said “I’ve sent him letters about helping with her party and he’s not answered any of them so he doesn’t know it’s a co-ed party”
“That’ll go over well” Harry muttered “So what’s happening after the party?”
“Five of the girls are staying for a sleepover” Hermione answered. She stood and greeted more preteens, showing them where to put their presents and then watched Rose greet them all. She told the parents when to pick the kids up and then said goodbye with promises of contacting them if it was needed.
“Six girls?” Harry asked “Better you than me”
“Just wait, Harry Potter” Hermione said “When Lily becomes a teenager she’ll want a party like this one”
By the time Ron showed up with his date (Lavender Brown) and Hugo the party had been in full swing for an hour. Everyone was there, including Teddy and Andromeda and Rose was having the time of her life dancing with everyone. Scorpius Malfoy stayed near her the whole time and Hermione was happy to see how good of a hostess Rose was. No one lacked in her attention and she was able to make people feel as if there was no one else in the room but them when she listened to what they had to say. Hermione had no clue where that gene had come from as Ron liked to be the center of attention and Hermione was shyer than she let on.
“She looks like she is having a good time” Lavender said.
“She looks like a tart” Ron snarled to Hermione “Make-up on her face, that dress is too short and showing too much skin and what the hell is the ferrets son doing hanging on to her like that?”
“They are dancing, Ronald” Hermione answered him “She picked out that dress when Ginny brought her shopping the other day and I think she looks precious” He shook his head but walked away from her.
Teddy walked over slowly to Hermione and offered her a glass of elf-made wine that he had in his right hand. He handed it to her and she took a sip as she kept her eyes trained on the party goers that were all talking and joking. The wine was amazing, fruity and sweet but not too much of a bite, however she knew that she would have to make sure that she didn’t drink it too quickly. This was the type of wine that she could drink a lot of but get drunk off of because it doesn’t taste like alcohol. She looked at Teddy, it was the first time she’d been this close to him since the day he had seen her in a pair of jogging pants and a sports bra. She felt foolish for freaking out the way she did but it had been her own self-image issues that made her angry that he’d seen her. He stood near her now watching the crowd as she had just been doing. His hair was a festive light green that would occasionally flash to Roses other favorite color, pink and his eye color changed with his hair.
“Since when is it normal to serve wine at a thirteen year olds birthday party?” She asked.
“Since we all realized there was a Malfoy in the house” He answered with a smirk.
“Nice” She answered and then nodded her head towards the kitchen and walked away hoping that he would follow her in, which he did
“Teddy” She looked at him “I wanted to apologize…”
“No” He said holding up his hand to stop her words “What I did was wrong and you had every right to get mad at me, you should have called the Aurors on me and told them what a pervert I was though I’m glad you didn’t”
“I was more upset that you saw me” She admitted “Now, well I’m not telling you to come peek in my windows, but I’ve been working out and jogging and I don’t hate my body as much as when you saw it…”
“You have a beautiful body” He told her his eyes traveling down her body “You are beautiful”
“Teddy!” Ron said as he walked in to the kitchen “What are you two doing in here?”
“He was helping me with the cake” Hermione said walking away after draining her wine “But I’ve got it, thank you for the offer though”
“Okay” He said walking away while smiling at Ron “Welcome”
That night Hermione cleaned up while listening to the girls giggling on the second floor. Ginny stayed behind to help her while Harry and Ron left with the kids. Hermione didn’t want to but she told Ginny everything that had happened in the kitchen with Teddy and begged for advice on nicely telling him to leave her alone. To her surprise Ginny just stood and looked at her like she had grown another head out of her ass or something, when she didn’t say anything Hermione turned and looked at her.
“Well!” She snapped looking at her friend “What do I do?”
“All he said was that you were beautiful, Mione” Ginny said “Doesn’t mean that he wants you and even if he does, what’s stopping you from sleeping with him?”
“Maybe the fact that he is only four years older than my daughter” Hermione said “That he’s only seventeen, my landlady’s grandson, that I was friends with his parents…that I had a school-girl crush on his father!”
“Hermione I’ve learned a lot about him this past month” Ginny said “He’s been working with Fred and George, he doesn’t have a girlfriend anymore, got his own place last week in Diagon Alley and is really doing well”
“So?” She asked.
“Just saying” She smiled, then bumped Hermione with her hip “Come on…tell the truth, you liked knowing that he was watching you a little bit, didn’t you?”
“NO!” Hermione said “I felt fat and saggy and…old” Hermione shook her head “I’ve never really felt like, well like all the reasons Ron left me for were true”
“What did he say was behind his leaving you?” Ginny asked gently.
“He said that I was getting too old and fat” Hermione answered “That I let myself go and didn’t care. He said that my stretch marks made him sick and that I was sagging” She wiped away some tears “When Teddy told me that he saw me that day I just…I felt so ugly and fat and all of sudden everything that Ron said came back and I…I just couldn’t look at Teddy knowing that he’d seen me”
“But to me it sounds like he doesn’t think the same way you do” Ginny pointed out “So, you are looking great…what have you been doing?”
“I lost fifteen pounds” Hermione said with a laugh “Oh yeah, this mama only weighs 135lbs now” She looked down “I still have like five maybe ten more pounds I would like to lose but it’s a start. Rose and I have been watching what we eat, we jog every morning and we’re going to start to jog every evening too, I’ve been swimming and we’ve been doing aerobics as well”
“That’s great” Ginny gave her an evil look “Sounds like someone is trying very hard to look even better than she already does to get someone’s attention” There was squealing above them.
“Definitely not” Hermione said but Ginny gave her a disbelieving look and shook her head.
~~~((@))~~~
Teddy walked in to his apartment in Diagon Alley after work. He worked a normal twelve hour shift as Fred was taking care of his new baby and George was busy trying to set up new displays. They needed Teddy and even though this wasn’t something that he wanted to do with his life he loved working there.
Dear Teddy,
I hope that you like living on your own. I miss having you here, it is worse than having you go to Hogwarts because at that point you still needed me. You don’t need me anymore and I find that I don’t know what I am doing with myself anymore. Just let me know if you are happy and safe, I love you my sweet boy.
With love, Grandy.
He smiled and shook his head, she was always blowing things out of proportion it had been two weeks since he moved out and sure he should be a little nicer and visit more often but he was finally free and wanted to enjoy it. Fred and George brought him to a muggle strip club to celebrate and it had been fun however they had to Obliviate a few people because his hair kept changing with his emotions. He learned a few things about himself through that experience, one was that he was attracted to older women (Fred and George said it probably had something to do with not having a mother) and when he was turned on his hair turned deep purple with black tips. An owl landed in his kitchen and waited impatiently for him to take the letter and then when he was opening it the owl waited even more impatiently for his answer.
Dear Teddy,
On August twentieth, which happens to be a Saturday night, Scorpius has talked me in to allowing him to throw a back-to-school mixer. There will be males and females, he wants to introduce me and his mother to his girlfriend (I didn’t know they started dating at thirteen). He wants Astoria and I to leave around six so it can be an “unchaperoned” party, however that feels like a bad idea to me so I was hoping that maybe you would hang around the party and watch it. Scorpius doesn’t see you as an actual adult so he won’t have a problem with it, please say you’ll do it.
Thanks, Draco.
Hanging out with a bunch of thirteen year olds, he didn’t even like that when he was in Gryffindor house and had to help the kids with homework. However, he knew that he would do it because Draco was his cousin and more than that he was willing to help him when he was starting up in the Department of Mysteries. He wrote back his acceptance and marked it on his calendar before walking to the bathroom to get ready for his shower. He lived a lonely life but he was getting used to it, he just had to make sure not to stray from his plans for the day then he wouldn’t feel as lonely as he was.
A/N: Hope you like this. Now, the whole Teddy freaking out and Hermione overreacting was because like she says she feels too ugly to be stared at and on top of that Teddy didn’t happen to look in and see her he stared at her. He watched her walk around her bedroom half-naked and look at herself in the mirror and all that. He should have turned away and he didn’t which is why he felt guilty. I am trying and trying to write a new chapter for A Selfless Heart but nothing is working out the way I want it to DAMN IT! Please continue to review I love to read them.
