"Do you think he likes me?" Harry said, lying on Ron's bed and staring at the ceiling."I don't know, I'm not him. Why don't you just ask him?" Ron replied, looking at his best friend who's lying lazily on his bed in the Burrow.
"You can't just ask people if they like you or not, what if he said no?" Harry responded, there's a nervous tone in his voice and Ron instantly recognizes it.
"You never know if you don't try. I bet he likes you too, I know from the way he looks at you like come on! George obviously likes you too." Ron said, trying his best to make his best friend not too nervous about the thought of it.
"I can't, I just can't, Ron! You can maybe help me with that, you know." Harry covers his eyes with both of his arms so he can only see darkness, thinking about all the worst scenarios that could happen.
"I have a great idea, but we need to gather everyone, including George," Ron said with a mischievous smirk across his face. Harry just sighed surrendering to whatever idea Ron had in his mind before Ron left the room to gather everyone else.
A few minutes passed when Ron and the other Weasleys and Hermione. Ron then went over to Harry who was sitting on the bed confused.
"Okay, so we're going to play seven minutes in heaven and I'm choosing... How about Harry and George?" He said, looking sideways at Harry.
"W-What?!" Harry stuttered before he was pushed into the broom cupboard together with George.
"You'll thank me later." Harry managed to hear before getting pushed into the cupboard, he swears he saw Ron winking at him.
"They've locked us in here!!" George protested, banging on the cupboard door and trying to open it up but of course, he can't because it's locked.
"Jeez, what's their problem?" George mumbled with a slight tone of annoyance. He then realized that Harry was also here with him and he saw that he is just standing in the corner with his head down.
"Hey Harry, you good?" George asked, clearly worrying about him. Harry looked up, trying his best to hide his bright red face and keeping a straight face.
"W-What? I mean yeah, o-of course!" He stuttered, avoiding any kind of eye contact with George. George who acknowledged it gets closer to harry and lift his chin up so now their eyes are on the same level.
"Are you sure? You seem like you're avoiding eye contact with me." George muttered with his face just a few inches away from Harry's. This made harry who had a really big crush on him since they first met, blushes uncontrollably.
"You're pretty red there mate." George teased when he realizes that Harry is blushing. The tease just makes Harry turn redder than ever and he looks away, avoiding eye contact.
"This is a simple question harry, I was just wondering if you like me..?" George whispered nervously, his cheek getting a bit rosy. Harry can't resist anymore and looked at George's deep beautiful chestnut brown eyes.
"I-I u-uhm, y-yes. I like you, George, like a lot." He finally managed to let it out, his face turning as red as a tomato. George watches as Harry turns really red and he sighed, relieved from his answer.
"Harry, listen. I like you or maybe, I love you. You've been in my heart since the first time I saw you." George smiled a shy and bashful smile, one that Harry never saw before.
"W-wait, really?" Harry asked, astonished from the answer that he gave him. George smirked, but this time it's a confident smirk. He carefully and slowly leaned in, pinning harry against the wall before his lip touched with Harry's soft one.
Harry was lost in his own world and imagination, and so is George. They never thought that they could kiss their one and only crush. But Harry suddenly snapped back to reality when George started to kiss more passionately, slowly putting both of his hand around Harry's waist.
They snogged for what felt like forever when the cupboard door opened which make both Harry and George jump back.
"Looks like you both are enjoying yourself." Ron grinned, looking at both of them before winking at Harry who was extremely red from embarrassment.
"But you two are done, now get out of the cupboard you lovebirds," Ron stated, dragging Harry out of the cupboard. But just before he was dragged outside, George bent down so his mouth is extremely near to Harry's ear which makes him shiver.
"Meet me later at midnight, downstairs, don't let anyone know," George whispered softly before he confidently leaves the cupboard to go talk to Fred. Harry gives a slight smirk at George before being dragged by Ron who was eager to know what they both do in the cupboard for seven minutes.
