First time

You two were running around the burrow, waiting until it was time to go to the train to go to Hogwarts. You two had met during first year, instantly becoming best friends when you laughed at one of George's jokes. Even at 11 years old he knew he wanted to hear that laugh the rest of his laugh. Better yet, be the reason you were laughing. That's all he wanted. You two had spent the summer running around the burrow, coming up with prank ideas for the upcoming school year. You were attempting to run away from him, not succeeding as his legs had quite an advantage compared to yours. All of a sudden, while focused on in front of you, you tripped over a rock. To the ground you went with a loud thud. You immediately heard George call your name in a panic. Catching up to you and essentially throwing his body on the ground next to you. Quickly grabbing you, turning you on your side. Only to see you not crying, or even any type of sad. No, you were laughing. Uncontrollably. To the point where George had to join in because he couldn't help but laugh at how hard you were laughing. The laughter died down but you two were still laying in the grass looking up at the sky. George looked at you as your gaze was still on the sky. "What are you thinking about Georgie'' you say knowing he was looking at you. "I- oh nothing" he said nervously.

Second Time

4th year

"I'm going to kill him" yelled George as he held you tightly in his arms, head in his chest. Shirt slowly becoming more and more wet with your tears. You had finally been asked out by the boy had been crushing on for the entire of the year. You were beyond excited. Running too George to tell him as soon as he asked you out. George put on his best smile and acted excited for you although he knew in that moment his heart broke a little. He didn't know when he fell for you all he knew is he was falling and he was falling hard. What broke him more was when you walked into the common room during the time that should have been your first date, tears in your eyes. You had been stood up. George immediately saw you and stood up from where he was sitting. Walking over to you he noticed ht tears and quicken his step. Opening his arms he looked at you with sad eyes. He let you cry for a couple moments before asking what happened. You pulled away and looked at him in the eyes. " He stood me up Georgie. He didn't even come" you mumbled before pressing your face back into his chest. George immediately felt rage come over him but he tried to control it, focusing more on being there for you. He wanted to grab your face and kiss you and tell you how much he loves you and how much better he is then that git, but he didn't. Instead he walked you to his dorm and let you sit on his bed. " you know Georgie, I should just date you. You would never stand me". George whipped this head around to turn and look at you. " well how about you go on a date with me" he replied with a smile. You looked at him shocked but nodded. Standing up you said, "i'll see you tomorrow, Georgie"

Third time

At this point, that date turned into much more. You too had been going out since 4th year now in seventh year. "Georgie, you know she's a git and dumb and mean and a bully and stupid and all those bad other things" you say with your hands around his face holding him close to you. George had come to you defeated with how the year was going. He nodded gently but you could tell by his face that he didn't fully believe it. You leaned in and gave him a quick kiss on the lips before pulling away and smiling at him. " you know you always amaze me Georgie, you are so kind, so loving, so funny, so intelligent, and so humble" you say as you watch the blush spread across his cheeks and down his neck as you encouraged him. You pulled your hands away from his face and rested your head on his shoulder. You two sat quietly for a few moments before George broke the silence. " you know uh- um- well Fred and I were talking and we were thinking about maybe leaving school early" you sat up and turned back to how you were before, facing him completely. Your eyes wide with shock and a little bit of confusion. He continued before you could ask any questions. " we want to open a shop. We got a great deal on a lot in DiagonAlly and we have the money to open it. It just makes sense". You sat for a couple seconds before throwing your arms around his neck and pulling him in for a kiss. You pulled away giggling at his confused face. " I told you you were amazing Georgie. I TOLD YOU!!! I am so proud of you. I can't wait to see the store someday" you say in an excited tone. In that moment George just wanted to blurt out the words but you were already onto planning and talking about how excited you were for his future.

Fourth time

"Sorry we are closed" you heard your George say as walked into their store. "Even for me, loverboy?" You say. George immediately turned around and ran up to you as you jumped into his arms, hooking your legs around his waist. You two had decided that you would finish your time off at Hogwarts and graduate and that you would move in together afterwards. You too had exchanged notes the whole time you were still at school. The separation was the worst but hearing how he was thriving made it all worth it. flashing forward to this moment you jumped down from him and cupped his face in your hands. " I missed you so much, you know that?" You leaned in, kissed him, hard. After months apart it felt so good to be back with your Georgie. "Hmm not sure, maybe kiss me again" he said with his perfect cheeky smile. You giggle at his dramatics and roll your eyes playfully before happily obliging and leaning in and kissing him again. "Ok now show me around your store, Georgie. I want to see it all" you say grabbing his hand wanting him to take lead. He did, you two spent the afternoon looking around the store. You were more distracted by how his face was lit up with pride and joy over his creation. "Georgie" you say, waiting for him to look at you. " I am so proud of you. I am so proud to call you mine, you know that'' you continue, making eye contact with his perfect eyes. In that moment George knew what he had been feeling all this time was love. He wanted to say it, he did. He didn't though, nerves got the best of him.

One time

You two knew you were going to fight in the war, fight for the good side. Fight for change and fight for each other. You two had been running around, fighting death eaters side by side. Well side by side and with Fred. He was always there, although you didn't mind. After being friends and now in a relationship with George for so long, Fred was just always there. You were absolutely exhausted. This war not only was physically exhausting but mentally. But you won. Fred and George had survived, although Fred barely. You were sitting in the great hall, head on George's shoulder as silent tears ran down your face. You weren't really crying over anything specific, mostly just all of it. George hadn't noticed you were crying until he heard you sniffle quietly. Moving so he could see your face, his heart broke. "Hey, hey, its over. All over. We did it. We can now move on with life. My joke shop, your future. Our future." He says as he wipes your tears. You looked at him with a smile as the tears continued to flow. " I love you" George blurted out. Timing, he can admit, was not the best. It felt real though, it was time. You look at him and giggle slightly at how he shocked himself with his boldness. "I love you" you say while grabbing his face and pulling him in for a kiss. Pulling apart you had finally stopped crying and purely just smiling out of love for your boy. Your Georgie.
