⚠️minor cursing⚠️

" where have you been?" ron asked me as i took my seat on the sofa. " i've been at the lake, making the most of it before we head back to school " i replied, with a book in my hand. " won't rip this one, will you harry?" i asked him, chuckling. he threw his arm around me and pulled me into a hug. " shut up! i still feel horrible about it!" he replied, also laughing. i heard everyone else let out small laughs too so i looked around but my eyes fell upon george. he was sat in the armchair opposite me with his arms crossed and rolled his tongue on the inside of his cheek. he met my gaze and raised an eyebrow at me. i moved over a little, away from harry. i had a feeling that harry had caught glimpse of george's gesture because as i started moving away, he cleared his throat and removed his arm from around me. we looked at each other as he leaned down and whispered " i'm sorry " in my ear. i waved him off and replied " no it's okay ". he gave me a smile which i returned and turned my gaze to my closed book.

" is there anything you and y/n want to tell us, mate?" fred asked george, not bothering to lower his voice. everyone fell silent and looked between the two of us. " are you together?" ginny continued. " what? no, of course not " george replied. " but you kissed her this morning and slept with her last night " fred retorted. " that didn't mean anything to me. you're insane if you think i'd ever be with someone like her. she's not for me, she can stay as someone else's problem " he said laughing. although he didn't mean what he just said, hearing him say that hurt- a lot. i avoided everyone's eyes as they all looked back and forth between us. he stopped laughing as he realised he was the only one who found it ' funny '.

" don't you think that was a bit harsh? you could've just left it at no " harry piped up next to me. " why does it matter to you?" george asked, cockily. " because y/n doesn't deserve to be spoken about like that-". " harry stop, it's okay " i interrupted. " no! no it's not okay! " he snapped, turning to me. " you're not somebody else's problem at all! you're -". " got something to say?" george interrupted, standing up. " harry, don't " i said. " george stop it " i pleaded as i saw his fist ball up, knuckles turning white. the situation escalated.

i stood up in between them as they continued getting at each other's throats. i snapped. " will you two stop it!". they both fell silent and looked down at me. i felt all the anger built up inside of me. " harry, just fucking sit down-". " why should he sit down? you're the one who needs to chi-" george cut me off but i interrupted him too. " upstairs. now ". " what? why?". " now!" i screamed as he made his way up the stairs. i took a deep, shaky breath and followed.

i walked into my room where he was and slammed the door behind me. he jumped a bit as he spun around to see me leaning my back against the door with my arms crossed in front of my chest. " what the fuck was that?" i said to him, my tone low. " you're asking me?". " no i'm asking the fucking clock. yes i'm asking you!" i shouted, raising my voice. " maybe you should ask harry, he seems to know " he retorted. " are you joking me, george?" after what happened today and us now being together? " i replied taking a couple of steps forward, my heart aching at his next words. " well then maybe we shouldn't be together! seems like harry's good enough for you to go to now " he screamed , stepping closer to me. i took a step back towards the door as my back hit it. i tried to process what he had just said, my lips parted as i felt water forming in my eyes. my bottom lip trembled and his face turned to sadness as he saw. " no sweetheart i'm so sorry, i didn't mean that " he said, stopping in front of me.

" what was all that downstairs for, george? " i asked quietly, looking down at the floor. " i don't know. i - i guess i just got jealous when he had his arm around you and i just- i don't know i just lost it " he said, crouching down to look at me- my gaze still on the floor. when i didn't rely, he continued. " you know how i feel about you, you're everything i hold most dearest in this world. i've liked you since i first saw you on platform 9 3/4 when you came through with mum, when we first became friends " he took my hands in his. " love, i'm so sorry ". " and what you said about me, our kiss, and the night-" " hey you know i didn't mean it ". " yeah i know, but it still hurt. a lot more than it probably should've too-". " come on, we'll go downstairs and i'll apologise to everyone- especially harry and then we can forget it okay?". " george this doesn't mean you-". " i know this doesn't mean i'm forgiven but please, this is our first argument ever and i hate it already. we're never fighting again, okay?". i nodded as i headed downstairs. him following. he is most definitely not forgiven. he didn't even listen to what i had to say.

as we reached the bottom step, i was immediately aware of the awkwardness that was now surrounding us. harry stood up as i felt george's hand on my back. i reached my hand up to his and squeezed it lightly. " harry don't even think about it. sit back down ". " uhm i- i just wanted to say that i'm sorry, harry. i don't know what got into me and i'm sorry to everyone else too " george stuttered behind me. " y/n. what have you done to him? he never apologises after a fight!" fred said chucking. i looked down and laughed a little as ginny gave him a dirty look. " just trying to defuse the tension ".

i saw that ron had taken my seat next to harry on the sofa so i walked over to george's chair and sat on the floor, leaning my back against it and started to read. he came and sat in the chair and learned over my shoulder, i didn't realise- obviously. " what are you reading?" he suddenly said, right next to me ear making me jump. " sorry about that " he continued laughing, rubbing circles on the top of my back but so no one could see. " midnight sun by stephenie meyer " i replied, chucking to myself. " sounds boring ". " hey!" i swatted his arm. " ow! what was that for?" he moaned, laughing. " you only think the book is boring because you never read!". " then read to me ". " what?" i asked, shocked. " can you read to me, please?" he replied, putting on his best puppy dog eyes. " alright " i said, rolling my eyes. " yay, come here " he said, patting the space in between his legs. " george it-". " i know it's risky, at least just sit in front of me so i can see the book too?".

i rolled my eyes again and moved to sit in between his thighs on the floor as he moved forward in his seat, his hands dropping and resting in the depth of both sides of my neck, just above my shoulders. i explained to him what had already happened in the book and carried on reading from the part i was already at. " does this mean i'm forgiven?" he whispered. " not at all " i replied. " good. that way i can make it up to " he smirked as his lips brushed my ear.
