"Wake up, (Y/N). Wake up" groggily you opened your eyes and turned around to see the silhouette of one of the twins.

"What've you planned now?" you wanted to know, not amused that you were woken. Instead of answering, the redhead breathed out in relief, embraced you and pressed you tightly to his chest. "What in Merlin's name are you doing?" the twin muttered something that you didn't understand. Next to you, you could hear Ginny stir. "Come on, let's go out of here because she'll kill you if she finds you in her room in the middle of the night." one of your best friends nodded but instead of letting go of you, he lifted you up and carried you out of the room, into the living room. Now, as you had more light, you could identify which of the twin it was, George, whom you had a crush an. When you realised that you were in his lap and he was cuddling you now again, your stomach turned around. You suggested that something upset him or whatever since he'd never come to you at this time just to hug you. So you wanted to know, what the matter was.

"I-I thought I'd lost you"

"Lost me? How that?"

"Nightmare" he mumbled "Two actually"

"What happened?"

"In the first one, Fred, you and I were on the astronomy tower in Hogwarts when you sat onto the parapet. And then I don't know what exactly happened but you fell. That's when I woke up."

"You know we're not in Hogwarts right now. And I'd never ever go near that parapet since I got my little problem with heights" you giggled.

"Saw that yesterday at the World Cup. But the second dream was worse. It was about the aftermath of the Quidditch World Cup. When this riot started. We lost you while we ran away and when we noticed it was too late. I didn't see it happen, o-only your body. Then I woke up again and I believed it really happened. It could have been, so I got up to make sure you're with us and alright."

"I'm fine" you assured him and leaned your head against his chest, listening to his beating heart. "And I'm here" although you felt bad for him you quite enjoyed being near him even though this meant nothing, after all he was just scared he could have lost you. You would do the same if you had such dreams about Fred, right?

"Sorry that I woke you"

"Don't be. It's better as if you had stayed in your room, being afraid or feeling bad all night"

"Probably. Would've given Fred even more of a chance to make fun of me"

"If he'd do that I would defend you"

"I see! You prefer me over my brother, is that so (Y/N)?"

"Well... " you began but then stopped "I like both of you"

"Can... can I tell you something?"

"If you keep it short"

"Dammit. I've actually planned to do all of this with a very long speech, reasons, examples and all."

"Okay, you can still do that, I might only fall asleep. After all you just woke me" he smiled and ran his fingers through your hair.

"I'd wake you again. Since I won't tell you another time"

"And what is what you want to tell me, George Weasley?"

"The reason I got so afraid for you is because you're more than a friend to me, (Y/N). I've been in love with you since ever I guess. That's one of the reasons I'm so happy for being friends with you. I can be near you. But if you don't return the feelings, promise me that it won't change anything. I don't want to lose you as a friend" your head snapped up and you looked at him, trying not to grin.

"You should've been thinking about that earlier. Honestly, it would be way to awkward if we would be friends in future, now after you told me. I'm sorry but I can't to that" you enjoyed his shocked face and couldn't help but grin "The thing is, George, I'm in love with you too."

"You're right. Would've been way too awkward being friends now as we've sorted that out. But honestly, you creeped the fuck out of me. I mean, how could you not be in love with me? I'm the most handsome, smartest, wittiest, most charming guy that ever lived and..." giggling you tried to stop him.

"Shut up"

"Make me" without giving it a second thought, you kissed him on the lips and you were almost overwhelmed by the feeling "You've no idea for how long I've been dreaming of doing this"

"Probably as long as me" he smiled and gave you another kiss.

"You know, I'm glad I woke you up"

"Me too"
