Chapter Text
1. People always said how much she looked like her mother. That if it wasn’t for the way her hair tinged red in the sunlight, you’d never know that she was her Father’s daughter. However Roxy knew from a young age that all she wanted to do was take over the Weasley Wizanding Wheezes. She loved everything about that shop dearly. She loved the gold and purple wall paper, and its unique scent of gun powder, sweets and her mothers honey blossom perfume that wafted around the shop. Roxy adored the back room fiercely. The back room with all it secrets and its laboratory filled with mischief to be created, magical concoctions and sneaky contraband items. She even loved the ding of the till and found the book keeping fascinating. But most of all she liked how the shop made people happy. Even at a young age knew she was destined to run this shop, so sure that she would swear her destiny was written in the stars.
2. Roxy had a rough time during puberty, she was no Rose but she certainly had an awkward first couple of years. She was used to being this lithe,tiny brown girl with wild hair that her mother and Aunt Mione taught her to love. That's the way 11 year old her liked it,because that’s how how nearly all the other girls looked. But somehow over what seemed like overnight… something changed. Stretch marks adored her widened hips and her thickened thighs, her chest felt itchy and hurt to touch as she eyed her fairly endowed chest and the worst of it was she somehow she didn’t get her mother height. All this added to her having this small,thin curvy figure. Her newfound figure gathered unwanted attention, and not the good kind. She was leered out by older boys and men( the nickname Foxy Roxy was dubbed) and was ostrazied by the boys in 1st year ( minus the twins and her family.) Girls were often jealous and as a result would taunt and say rude things like Sleazy Reasley and Rox sucks cocks.She often tried to hide her figure in too big ropes and wore sports bras to try and compress her breasts. God she hated the way she looked and was so envious of her cousins figures. This was until the summer between 2nd and 3rd year when her and Sander were walking back from the movies when it proceeded to bucket down rain, thus making her white t-shirt become translucent.. She prayed to Dumbledore for the ground to swallow her up as hoard of muggle lads started pointing and catcalling her. To her own surprise she didn’t get angry instead promptly burst into tears. Sander not wanting her to cry, took off his plaid over shirt put it in her hands and said ‘Rox’s their just being right tossers and obviously are intimated by trying to converse to such a pretty girl. Just like those awful girls at school are just such brats because they know they can't be as cool, or beautiful as you. I think all you look awesome and you should be allowed to wear or act however you like. Anyway were going to get a cold so we should get going.’ And sure enough with Sander by her side Roxy walked into 3nd year swaying her hips, smirking at boy, scoffing at the bitchy girls. She wore her skirt high and her blouse tight ( much her Nana displeasure) and the name Sleazy Weasley didn’t matter to her because she was dam beautiful and no one was going to take that away from her.
3. Fred used to make pillow forts for her whenever it would hail because the sounds used to scare her. He would come into her room and grab her tiny hand and lead her to impressive pillow fort, and they’d lay in the blanket nook and he’d recount creative, wild, funny bedtime stories with the best voices till she was fits of giggles and couldn’t even notice the hail. These were the memories that Roxy used to produce her first patronus… a tiny fox.
4. She actually didn’t like drinking very much, but did it anyway because thats what everyone did at parties and she didn’t want to be left out.
5, Despite all the rumours, Rox didn’t actually lose her virginity till she was 19. He was her first real relationship out of high school and was a semi-pro soon to be pro quidditch player. He was sweet, a little goofy and at times a loveable jerk. Their time together was easy and fun and he made her laugh. Thats exactly how her first time was relaxed, fun and comfortable. It was perfect in the sense that it just felt meant to me. They broke up a year later due to work commitments but a part of her still smiles when she thinks of him, and the time they had together… and sometimes late at night she thinks about calling him.
6. Her Father and her always had dad/daughter days once a year.These days were even better than her birthday as child in her opinion. It was a day where they would go adventures to the muggle cinema, eat obscene amounts of ice-cream in diagon alley, play harmless pranks on customers in the shop or go to theme parks or plays. She filmed the moment her Father cried when she told him that in 7 months times he would be having grandaugther/grandad days.
7. At the age of 17 she actually went Vegan ( once again much to the displeasure of her Grandma Molly, who claimed that it made her too skinny). But she loved animals too much and enjoyed they way Veganism made her feel and look, she managed to tone up quite a bit, and had lots of energy and just felt good about herself. Also in her mind Grandma Molly was wrong because he ass and boobs definitely weren't 'too skinny'.
8. Roxy was a single mother to a little munchkin she called Aileen or ‘Aily’for short. Only 24 years old, no boyfriend, and no real experience with baby’s besides playing with her cousins kids however she had a nice little flat above Mr Station’s Outstanding Stationary, and was assistant manager of a Weasley Wizanding Wheezes and had army of relatives willing to help. So she did something that surprised even herself …she decided to keep her baby. Aily was a tiny little thing, but was a bundle of energy and bright white smiles. Her little peanut adored being doted on by the family and Roxy couldn’t imagine living a life without her daughter. Most importantly Aily loved her Uncle Lor who moved in when Roxy was about 7 months pregnant due to her unstable pregnancy and health problems. Soon a 2 months visit became 6 months then a year and then became photographing Aily’s first crawl, first nightmare, first word, first day of pre-school. They were an unconventional family but it worked. So perhaps she was a not so single mother.
9. God she was terrified when she watched her daughter leave for Hogwarts. Not scared for her daughter… because trust that girl was a smart little gryffindor and was going to just splendidly in a castle of possible new friends. Her on the other hand… besides work, and the gym her entire life was being a mom, and hell she is a 35 single woman who hasn’t been on a date in 6 years and now has nothing to do with her life… and she keeps thinking that now Aily is gone for most of the school year Lorcan might move out, and her family will be broken up. As if reading her mind she felt a tiny squeeze on her hand. ‘ So now the kiddy is gone, lets go crazy. I’m thinking we have 2 whole glasses of wine with the pasta tonight. Also now we can watch all those’ too adult films’ togethers on family movie night, oh and ready for the best bit… no ordering pineapple on part of our pizza for a whole 3 months. How is it two smart, wonderful people like ourselves managed to raise a kid who likes fruit on pizza.’ And god did Roxy laugh and possibly teared up a bit. It was exactly what she needed to hear. She had no clue what her future was going to be but whatever it was, she knew she wasn’t going to be alone.
10. Roxy lied to Aileen about who her father was. She said that it was her boyfriend of the time and when he found out she pregnant he split and wanted nothing to do with her. However … that wasn’t actually the case. Roxy met up with Felix, wonderful pro-chaser, body of god, funny, ex-boyfriend Felix at a coffee shop in London. She felt like she was 19 again and felt herself getting swept away as he proposed they have dinner to catch up as old friends. He was in town visiting family but had to head back to bulgaria tomorrow as Quidditch training was about to start. She knew it was a and idea but agreed anyway. Their dinner was amazing, they laughed and ate and drank… one thing led to another and then they had pretty mind-blowing sex ( twice) in his hotel room. The next morning came and said he was interested in doing the long distance thing with her and he was happy to give this a real shot if she was. But with work and his work, she knew they couldn’t do the distance so they parted ways on good terms, promising to keep in touch and stay friends. 2 months later, 4 positive pregnancy tests and 3 buckets of vomit later… she made up a fake boyfriend to him, and they drifted apart as she slowly stopped returning his calls, his texts, and eventually deleted everything from their life together. Quidditch was his dream and she couldn’t let him give that up, and she was living her dream with Aily and Lorcan… That didn’t stop her crying when she saw in Witch Weekly that he was getting married. She’d give anything to have the opportunity to return his call… atleast just one more time.
