Harry Potter Imagines ⚠️Includes Smut⚠️

Tightrope- 🖕

Summary- After George has spent so much time at the Joke shop, you start to feel frustrated. So you turn on some music and the first song that plays relates a lot to what is going on in your life with George. After a lonely dance in the kitchen and reliving old memories, some problems come to the surface that were buried deep down for far too long. (Song: Tightrope- Michelle Willaims)

You looked up at the clock, it was 7:30 pm. "George promised to be here 30 minutes ago," you sighed sadly. He's been doing this for the past few months. He promises that he'll be home and then doesn't come home until much much later. He and Fred have been really busy with the shop lately, and you understand that it's their dream, but sometimes you want to see the love of your life, you know?

You sat up and looked at the dinner you had prepared for you two, and you looked down at your dress that you decided to wear for him. You groaned and sat down at the table, eating your meal by yourself.

"I'll be home by seven love!" you mimicked Georges's voice, "Bullshit, it's all bullshit!". You stabbed your fork down and kept eating.

After you finished, you sat your dishes down in the sink and turned on some music. "I might as well dance, even though I have no one to dance with. But, I'm used to it at this point," you whispered to yourself.

"Tightrope" from The Greatest Showman started playing. "This explains my life right now," you chuckled sadly then started singing, "Some people long for a life that is simple and planned. Tied with a ribbon. Some people won't sail the sea 'cause they're safer on land. To follow what's written. But I'd follow you to the great unknown. Off to a world we call our own,".

You thought back to when you and George were talking about your future during dinner one day at Hogwarts. When you mentioned getting a job at the ministry he said that that was boring and no fun.

"What do you mean that's "boring and no fun"?" you asked. "I want a job where I can have fun, sure, it might not pay well. But it's a lot better than getting an office job where you're bored out of your mind. And besides, it's fun to have a little risk!" George exclaimed, "What's the fun in having a life that's planned? It's so much more fun to not know what'll happen tomorrow! It's fun when there's some unknown to your life, it makes it exciting!". "Well, I guess wherever you end up, I'll end up," you sighed dreamily and leaned toward him. "We'll make the world our own," he whispered and kissed you.

Your heart fluttered at the memory.

"Hand in my hand. And we promised to never let go. We're walking a tightrope. High in the sky. We can see the whole world down below. We're walking a tightrope. Never sure, never know how far we could fall. But it's all an adventure, that comes with a breathtaking view. Walking a tightrope. With you, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh. With you, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh. With you," you sang.

You tried to be optimistic about all of the time George has to spend at the shop because you know that one day it'll all be worth it. But, it really doesn't seem like it because it's been months of this and it doesn't seem to be getting better. At some point, the shop could completely crash and you two would be screwed. But on the other hand, it could work out amazingly and you two could be set for the rest of your life. You never know, you guess.
