Not Quite an Affair by Rosalie (Reviews - 522)
“You mustn’t tell them, Rose! Harry knows but Lily and the boys… you can’t breathe a word…”Category: Works in Progress
When Rose Weasley went to her favorite aunt for advice on how to handle loving someone her family disapproved of, she never dreamed the older woman would have been able to relate so well. In the comfortable safety of her kitchen, Ginevra Potter told her niece everything and swore her to secrecy. But months later, when Ginevra notices that her daughter, Lily, is spending time with Scorpius Malfoy, Ginny realizes too late that the truth can never really be locked away. Children question their parents and their own identities and everyone must confront the past.

Date: May 28, 2009 Title: Chapter 7: Properly Feigned Innocence
Would it be horribly pretentious of me to drop blatant hints about how tomorrow (29th May) is my birthday and how much I adore -no, want to marry- this fic? :D
Right. Of course it is. That little factoid, however, isn't stopping me. Consider this begging. *sends puppy dog gaze through the ether* Another fantastic chapter, btw. The characterization in particular was lovely. Can't wait for the next update.
Author's Response: Wow, I promise to try my very best to have the next chapter posted tomorrow. It's in my beta's hands tho, lol. Thank you so incredibly much for the compliment though, it made me grin like crazy. And Happy Birthday! Have a good one, hopefully I can update this fic for it lol.
Date: Jun 01, 2009 Title: Chapter 8: Doubt and Stupidity
Aww, thank you! That's very sweet of you (and my birthday was lovely). This is an excellent belated birthday present, well worth the small wait. *hugs* I loved this chapter, but...
that cliffhanger was VILE. And by vile I mean, of course, perfectly executed. I'm on tenterhooks, and I'm sure I'll pout for the next week or so until the next update. I actually enjoy this story more with every update. :) *gives Scorpius a vicious pinch for being such an unbelievable git*
Author's Response: Your welcome! I know, there will be more cliffhangers in the future I'm sure, but probably none with a car blaring its horn, lol. I'll update as soon as the beta gets back to me.
Date: Jun 08, 2009 Title: Chapter 9: Apologies, with Tulips
Can I just say that Scorpius cowering before enragedDaddy!Harry was too fantastic for words? I loved that part, thought it was my favorite part of the chapter... until I read about Ginny punishing Lily with bathroom scrubbing. By hand. *grins*
You know what I'm really enjoying? The fact that you've created a story about parents, children, *real* family dynamics and behavior, and not just a one-dimensional Lily-Rose-Scorpius love polygon with angsty D/G in the background. This fic has depth. I love it.
Author's Response: Oh my goodness, your comment made me so happy, I can't stop grinning. Thank you so much for enjoying the story. I was so nervous to try something so out of the usual DG but yours and everyone else's reviews are insanely encouraging! I'm so glad you like the story just the way it is! Thanks! Hope you like the rest!
Date: Jun 29, 2009 Title: Chapter 11: Snogging Sessions and Sneers
Now I realize you're going to get a fair amount of flack for this chapter, but good for you, Rosalie. Scorpius had to end up with somebody and, in a love triangle, there's always going to be a disappointed faction. Hopefully everybody minds their manners and commends you for a lovely story thus far... and the fact that we have lots of angsty DG goodness to look forward to makes me so excited for the next chapter, too.
This is still one of the (very) few stories I look forward to every week. I can't wait to see what happens next! :)
Author's Response: Thank you so much for your encouraging review! I really appreciate it. I didn't realize in the beginning of writing this story how many people would be routing for R/S and was pretty reluctant to post this chapter (and future ones) But I'm glad that a handful of people can still appreciate it and I'm honestly very grateful for your kind review! Just a few happy people are a lot of encouragement. Thank you.
