I said Urogi would be next, but my brain said no and gave me this instead. I wrote it in one session so it's not edited at all ><;
SFW, GN reader but reader wears a skirt and is called pretty, Black reader, autistic reader, autistic Aizetsu, Aizetsu has anxiety, reader is chronically ill/has chronic pain
You notice the boys have been a bit listless so you decide to take them out. But individually. It must be tiring always being part of a group, right?
Aizetsu
Karaku was enthralled with his new PS5 game when a knock on his door interrupted him.
"Come in!"
Aizetsu slowly opened the door and stepped in, but didn't go farther than that. He seemed more awkward and folded in on himself than usual. Droplets of sweat hung from his brow and his hands seemed to desperately fidget with the hem of his shirt.
"Oh man. You're spiraling again. What is it this time?" asked Karaku patting the bed beside him, "tell big bro what's wrong."
Without looking up from his feet, Aizetsu shuffled over to sit next to his brother. The closeness seeming to ease his troubles a tiny bit. "W-What should I do when y/n takes me on our date?"
"You go on the date and have fun."
"Not like that. I mean...how should I act? What do I say? Oh god-" said Aizetsu, as he was already starting to hyperventilate.
Karaku sighed and held his arms open, inviting Aizetsu to rest his head on his lap. "Calm down! Breathe. Remember how we showed you?" said Karaku, as he lightly pat his brother's head.
After about a minute or two, Aizetsu felt well enough to continue.
"I want to impress them. A-And I want them to see I can be strong and confident, too."
"But they already like you the way that you are. You don't have to impress them, silly."
"I know I don't have to, but I want to. That's what men are supposed to do, right?"
Karaku sighed knowing he wasn't going to be able to change his brother's mind.
"I got it! You can take them to the amusement park. You're as good at games as I am. Win them tons of prizes to show off. Let them hold onto you on scary rides so you can comfort them."
"That sounds... possible. Yeah. Yeah! I can do that" said Aizetsu as he sat up in excitement, the corners of his lips turned upward just a little.
You were a bit surprised when Aizetsu came to you with an idea for your date. He seemed genuinely excited and eager to go. He didn't like to take the initiative often. Scared to step on Sekido's toes a lot of the time.
As usual, you waited for your boyfriend at the bottom of the stairs. For this date, you decide to wear a blue pinafore skirt with a short sleeve yellow shirt underneath, yellow thigh highs, with blue and yellow colorway Jordan's for all the walking you were about to do. You put your hair up in pigtails and wore a black mini backpack big enough to store your foldable cane just in case.
You looked up as you heard your boyfriend approach followed by Karaku and Zohakuten. His hair was brushed through and tied into a low ponytail and topped with a navy blue slouchy beanie. He had on a lightweight tan button up underneath a plaid dark blue long sleeve unbuttoned and dark blue denim jeans with fresh white air forces.
"Oooh you look so cute, 'Zetsu!" you said as he met you by the door.
He blushed and looked down and mumbled a small "thank you"
A few steps away, Karaku coughed loudly.
"Thank you! You look amazing as always, Y/n" said a suddenly reanimated and forward facing Aizetsu "we should get going."
As the two of you made your way through the park entrance you were bombarded with lights all around from the many booths, rides, and attractions.
"It's so pretty at night!" you said.
"N-Not as pretty as you" said Aizetsu who looked away, but gave your hand a squeeze. "What do you wanna do first?"
"Hmm well all the nocturnal animals should be awake in the animal exhibits! I wanna see some bats!"
Aizetsu led you to the entrance of the maze like animal attraction area. They kept the walkways dark so the slideshows on the walls were well visible at all times. It felt like walking through a movie theater of National Geographic documentaries.
"The aquarium is first" said Aizetsu.
You gasped and pulled him over to the giant tanks. The colors and movements of the fish a constant rainbow for your eyes. You smiled in wonder.
"Hey I've never seen that kind of jellyfish before."
"T-That's a lion's mane jellyfish. They're one of the longest animals in the world. Even compared to blue whales. I like the orange ones the best, but they come in other colors. They only live about a year, though. It's sad, really" said Aizetsu.
You stared at him in amazement. That was the most he's ever spoken at once He knew all of that without even looking at the info plaques, too.
When he realized you were quiet he turned to see you looking at him in shock.
"I-I'm sorry. I was talking a lot, wasn't I? I'll stop I promise" he said looking away in embarrassment.
"No no. That was actually so cool! You must like jellyfish a lot, huh?"
He raised a brow at "cool", but nodded yes. "I used to read about them all the time and I would draw them, but the main body told me to stop. It would get hard for me to focus on anything else like fighting."
You held your chin in thought. Could Aizetsu be autistic, too? Would that mean they all are? Or do they have individual brains? Or-
"Y/n."
Your thought bubble burst when you snapped back to reality. "Huh? Oh I'm sorry. I was spacing out a bit there. What did you say?"
He was pointing at a clownfish. "It's the fish from that movie you like, right?
You perked up. "Oh yeah the clownfish! Funny, clownfish can actually change gender. They're all born male, but can later change to female. The fish in the movie could've changed when his wife died."
They do it, too? Aizetsu thought as he watched you info dump about clownfish like it was a normal thing to do.
You realized you had been droning on and on and blushed. "Oh jeez. Sorry. I didn't mean to-" you flinched when he leaned down closer to your face.
"No, please. Don't apologize for that, it'll make me sad. I love when you talk."
Your eyes lingered on each other's for a bit. "Only if you don't apologize, either. Please."
About an hour later, your hands were full with two bags of plushies that Aizetsu won for you as the two of you sat down to take a break. "This has been so much fun!" you shouted, exhausted.
"I'm having fun, too" said Aizetsu with a small smile "but are you feeling okay? Maybe we should go home?"
From the corner of your eye, you saw a game booth down the way with a jellyfish plushie as a prize. You had to get it!
However, unbeknownst to you, Aizetsu saw a different booth with a clownfish plushie. He had to get it!
"I have to go to the bathroom" the two of you said in unison.
"Right. Uh meet back here? In about 10 minutes?"
He nodded in agreement before the two of you split up.
When you approached the booth, something felt wrong, but you couldn't pinpoint what. Just a feeling of being watched.
The game was simple enough. Throw a ring around a bottle for a prize. "Hey what color do I have to get for the giant jelly?" you asked the attendant.
"For the big boy here, you gotta land on red" said the man as he patted the plushie.
"Deal!" you said as you handed him some money and gave it a try.
You tried. And tried. And tried. On the verge of tears, on your last attempt a red bottle suddenly appeared under your ring and it slid down. You weren't sure what was happening, but you chalked it up to being tired and celebrated anyway.
"Hell yeah! He's gonna love this. I'll take the big jelly, sir" you said, and held out your hands.
As soon as the plushie was in your hands, a hand quickly covered your mouth and the world spinned as you were quickly... almost inhumanly transported somewhere else.
You were thrown on the ground with your bags and things only to find yourself surrounded by a group of about five male demons.
"I think I found us a good one for tonight, boys!" said the one that had rudely thrown you to the ground.
"Hey! What the hell! What do you want from me?" you asked, starting to get worried.
"The rest of your money and your life" said another.
You gazed over and saw another going through your bags of plushies and ripping them apart looking for anything valuable.
"Hey! Stop that! My boyfriend won me those!" you said trying to fight back.
Your body skidded along the dirt as you were easily pushed back.
"Eh, boss. There's nothing valuable here. Just these stupid toys."
Your eyes widened as the lackey went to grab the jellyfish plushie. "No!"
Against your better judgement, you had sprang to your feet and charged the man hard enough to get him to drop the plushie that you latched onto with a death grip.
"Why you little -" the boss of the group started before smacking you hard across the face, sending you skidding across the ground once more.
Before you could get up, the demon was already on top of you with a menacing smile. "Well if you don't have anything else, I know a way you can make up the difference" he said, lifting up your skirt with a claw.
You panicked and tried to scoot away only to get dragged by by your ankle.
"Hey, now. Where ya goin? The party is just getting star-"
The atmosphere suddenly grew extremely heavy. It became harder to breathe and the saliva in your mouth dried up, the feeling of pure malice and murderous intent in the aura made your body feel like lead. You knew what it meant, but never experienced it from the specific source before. You turned your body just enough to see a pair of blue eyes glowing in the darkness.
"An upper moon?! What's an upper moon doing here?" said the boss demon as he stepped away from you.
Aizetsu stepped into the moonlight, a clownfish plushie in one hand and his spear in the other, shaking in fury. You tried to get a better look at his face, but to your surprise his expression wasn't angry. It was blank. Like somewhere deep in his mind blew a fuse. It was somehow scarier than if he had been scowling.
"Don't move, y/n" was all he said, not even looking at you.
You nodded okay anyway.
Faster than you could blink, limbs were being separated from their bodies as they started to be ripped into shreds like a blender. You could barely see the spear move through the air, but you didn't dare move to try to find it.
The other four demons or what was left of them scattered in the breeze as Aizetsu had the boss against a tree with a spear to his neck.
"It makes me sad I can't kill you twice" he said before lopping off the demons head.
Oh. That's hot!
You laid back against the ground and sighed in relief and fatigue. Hungrily taking in gasps of air as the atmosphere softened again.
"Sweetheart, are you alright?" said Aizetsu offering you a hand up.
Your legs and hands had been scraped up pretty badly, your skirt was ripped and ruined, and blood trickled down your chin from a busted lip. You were gonna have a horrible morning.
"Heh. Yeah I'm fine. That was wild. You looked so-" you found yourself backed against a tree trunk before you could finish.
The blank look was still on his face and you shuddered. Was he mad at you? You opened your mouth to apologize before he slowly licked the blood off your face.
"Wha-uh" you blushed and turned into a flustered mess.
A hand snaked up to grip your neck and chin softly as he crashed his lips into yours. The other hand pulling you closer to his body and gripping your ass. He let a deep growl rumble through his chest before letting you go.
Aizetsu had never felt the mix of emotions he was feeling at the moment. Something inside his head just snapped seeing you hurt and threatened. He looked at you who stared back at him as if he put the stars in the sky and blushed.
He supposed that meant mission accomplished, not knowing you were impressed from the start.
"Let go home, y/n."
(*cough*You, of course, got railed. And Karaku hi-fived Aizetsu in pride and congratulations. *Cough*)

Pink Perfection: How to Incorporate Sweatshirts into Your Retro Outfits
Tumblr media
In the ever-evolving world of fashion, trends come and go, but some pieces stand the test of time. Among these timeless staples is the humble sweatshirt. Once relegated to gym wear or lazy days at home, sweatshirts have now become a key component of retro-inspired fashion. With their versatility and comfort, sweatshirts can effortlessly elevate any vintage ensemble. In this guide, we'll explore how to incorporate sweatshirts into your retro outfits with pink perfection.
Choose the Right Sweatshirt: When it comes to retro fashion, authenticity is key. Opt for sweatshirts that have a vintage-inspired design. Look for details like raglan sleeves, ribbed cuffs, and a slightly oversized fit. Classic crewneck sweatshirts or hoodies in soft pink hues are ideal for achieving that retro vibe.
Mix and Match Textures: Retro outfits are all about playing with textures and layering. Pair your pink sweatshirt with contrasting textures like denim, corduroy, or faux fur. For a casual daytime look, team your sweatshirt with high-waisted jeans and sneakers. For a more polished ensemble, layer it over a midi skirt and add some statement jewelry.
Accessorize Thoughtfully: Accessories can make or break a retro-inspired outfit. Add a touch of vintage glamour with accessories like cat-eye sunglasses, a silk scarf, or a beret. A chunky knit beanie or a vintage-inspired brooch can also add character to your ensemble. Don't forget to complete the look with a pair of retro sneakers or ankle boots.
Experiment with Prints and Patterns: Don't be afraid to mix and match prints for a playful retro look. Pair your pink sweatshirt with floral skirts, polka dot trousers, or gingham pants. Alternatively, layer it under a printed pinafore dress for a cute and quirky outfit. Mixing prints adds visual interest and personality to your retro ensemble.
Add Vintage-Inspired Outerwear: Outerwear plays a crucial role in completing a retro outfit. Choose outerwear pieces that complement your pink sweatshirt while adding an extra layer of warmth and style. A faux fur coat or a vintage-inspired bomber jacket can add a touch of old-school glamour to your look. Alternatively, opt for a retro denim jacket or a tailored blazer for a more casual vibe.
Accessorize with Retro-Inspired Bags: No retro outfit is complete without the perfect bag. Look for vintage-inspired handbags or backpacks in complementary colors and textures. A structured leather satchel or a woven straw tote can add a touch of sophistication to your ensemble. Alternatively, opt for a mini backpack or a crossbody bag for a more casual, hands-free look.
Don't Forget the Finishing Touches: Pay attention to the little details that can take your retro outfit to the next level. Roll up the sleeves of your sweatshirt for a casual, effortless vibe. Tuck it into high-waisted trousers or a skirt for a more polished look. Experiment with different hairstyles like victory rolls, pin curls, or a sleek ponytail to complement your retro ensemble.
Confidence is Key: Above all, confidence is the key to rocking any outfit with style. Embrace your unique sense of fashion and wear your retro-inspired ensemble with pride. Whether you're channeling the glamour of the 1950s or the laid-back vibes of the 1990s, let your personality shine through in every outfit you wear.
In conclusion, incorporating sweatshirts into your retro outfits is all about creativity, experimentation, and confidence. Whether you're going for a casual daytime look or a glamorous evening ensemble, a pink sweatshirt can be the perfect foundation for your vintage-inspired outfit. By mixing and matching textures, prints, and accessories, you can create endless retro-inspired looks that are as stylish as they are comfortable. So embrace the pink perfection of sweatshirt chic and let your retro style shine!

10 Chic Dresses to Wear with Knee High Boots
Can you wear boots with chic dresses? Some say no, others say it’s an incredibly hard look to pull off, and I say Yes, you can wear boots with dresses. It depends on the type of dress and the style of boot. My focus in on knee-high boots because it can be confusing to know what type of dress to pair them with, as boot season is upon us, and the options are numerous.  
THE POWER OF DRESSES
Let me introduce you to women’s fashion hack No 1 - dresses. Dresses are the fastest, most efficient way to get dressed. Slip one over your head and you’re covered in effortless glam. Dresses give you the best silhouettes to show of your shape and flatter your figure plus, they never go out of style. There’s a dress for every body-type, every life season and every occasion.
Why Chic Dresses Are Good with Boots?
Boots give sass to the sweet vibes of a dress. Think of it as balancing the feminine and masculine and boots can work with any style aesthetic.
Do Knee-high Boots Suit Everyone?
Yes, anyone can wear them as long as they buy the right type to suit their persona. From delicate, to bulky, to wild and color blocked, there’s something for every woman.
Chicest Dresses to Wear with Knee-high Boots
Sweater Dresses
Perfect for fall and winter, the stretch of the knit means that the dress follows all the lines of the body like a bodycon without being tight. Leather knee-high boots work well here.
Tumblr media
Smock Dress
Smock dresses have just the right amount of freedom and femininity. Pairing them with knee-high boots makes for an edgy look.
Tumblr media
Blazer Dress
Think of a blazer dress as a man’s suit jacket with a feminine touch. Probably not office appropriate because of its mini length but can be raised to a level of formality with the right tights and boots.
Tumblr media
Asymmetric Hem Dress
Also known as the handkerchief-hem dress, an asymmetric hem dress has an uneven hem line which makes it suitable for wearing with boots. Knee-high boots take the hem from casual to tailored.
Tumblr media
Color-block Knit Dress
Comfy, soft, and paneled with blocks of color, knit dresses are the modern woman’s wardrobe staple.
Tumblr media
Denim Dress
Denim dresses are perfect for fall and winter. Denim is a comfortable and versatile fabric that works well with practically all-types of type of knee-high boots. If you want some extra shine, go for faux leather knee-highs.
Tumblr media
Wrap Dress
For cinching in waists and enhancing figures, the wrap dress has a special place in our hearts and goes so well with boots.
Tumblr media
Floral Dress
Floral dresses are always in because they represent freshness and newness. Pairing a floral with a knee-high boot adds a toughness that balances out the florals.
Tumblr media
Pinafore Dress
Shaped like an apron, the pinafore dress is worn with under layers that fit closely to the body. Knee-high boots give the pinafore a dignified look.
Tumblr media
African Print-Patch Dress
For women who love color and value uniqueness, the African print-patch dress is a conversation starter; (‘Where did you get that?’ ‘I love your dress!’) and is a nice item to pair with your much-loved, knee-highs. Get one from Joe Stylee and browse the Sis Stylee collection for a beautiful selection of African-inspired dresses.

How to create 60s and 70s looks using modern day clothing items
1. Turtlenecks
Turtlenecks are one of the easiest ways to create a 60s or 70s look. They can be styled in many different ways to suit your style and aesthetic. A basic black turtleneck paired with black skirts or pants and a beret can create a beatnik look. You can also pair colourful turtlenecks with complimentary coloured mini skirts and knee high socks for the mod look. Colourful turtlenecks look great when paired with flares/bell bottoms for the 70s look. For peak winter, turtlenecks look simple but elegant with a nice coat and mini skirt. Turtlenecks were also worn under pinafores for a stylish winter look. Make sure to accessorise your turtleneck with necklaces to suit your style. For example, if you want a more hippie or bohemian look, try pairing your turtleneck with natural or handmade necklaces
Tumblr media Tumblr media
2. Mini skirts
Mini skirts were the most iconic clothing piece of the 60s. They are very versatile and are easy to find. You can park a white mini skirt with a black turtle neck for the iconic Sharon Tate look. Patterned mini skirts are great when paired with a solid coloured top. When shopping for mini skirts, try looking for vibrant, unique colours or psychedelic patterns.
Tumblr media
3. Flared Pants/Bell bottoms
Flare pants are an essential for a 70s look. They can be paired with many tops and still look retro. They look great with a low heeled boot or a cowboy boot. Wear thick patterned belts with them to elevate and accessorise the look. They can be paired with almost every top from band tees to a peasant blouse. If you’re not sure how to style flares, try denim flares before buying bright coloured pants. That way, you can learn how to style the flares and see what silhouettes look good on your body type.
Tumblr media
4. Socks and Stockings
Socks and stockings are great for accessorising with skirts. Knee high socks in black and white are easy to find and are great with low top leather shoes such as loafers and Mary Janes. You can also purchase coloured knee high socks to match tops or skirts. If you’re wearing socks that match your top or skirt, it looks put together and thought out without even having to try. Patterned stockings are also great. Like the socks, try buying coloured stockings to create more colour in your outfits.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
5. Boots
The most versatile and easy to find shoe for 60s and 70s looks are boots. Knee high boots look amazing when paired with mini skirts. Low top boots are great for bell bottoms. For bell bottoms, low heeled boots (eg cowboy boots) look the best. Black knee high boots give a more city chic European look. Brown and suede knee high boots are good for a bohemian look, especially with flowy floral dresses. One of the most iconic boots were go go boots. White go go boots are the most iconic and are the easiest to pair with outfits. They can be found on eBay, Amazon and in party shops in a variety of colours. Thigh high boots are also good too.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
6. Hats
Hats are a great accessory for 60s and 70s looks. For 60s looks, try wearing a beret or a baker boy cap for a mod look. Large floppy hats were the wardrobe essential of Brigitte Bardot and are good for the summertime and the beach. Straw hats are good for 70s looks.

Best Friends Boyfriend - G.W
Masterlist, Requesting Rules, Writing Prompts
Part 2 of my slow burn mini-series, inspired by and dedicated to @amourtentiaa , want to be tagged? Let me know!
This chapter is inspired by @amourtentiaa ‘s Owlery which you can learn more about and access here.
Please read Part 1 if you haven't already!
George Weasley x Fem Reader slow burn 
Warnings: Fluff.
You couldn’t get last night out of your head, the sound of George whispering to you, asking you out on a date, how his beautiful face looked from the amber tones coming from the flames that radiated against his face, the way he smiled and licked his lips.
Laying in bed wide awake you kept your hand over your mouth, trying to hold in your giggles so you wouldn’t wake up Hermione and your other dorm mates. You couldn’t believe it - you’re going on a date, with George Weasley, the lad you fancy more than anyone else in the world - the only problem, your best friend, George’s younger brother, Ron, wouldn’t approve and would do anything to make sure the two of you keep well away from one another.
Throughout the whole day, you played it cool when passing George in the common room or the great hall, but as the day moved on and afternoon turned into evening, you couldn’t stop the giggles of excitement from bursting out, and the tint of pink to spread across your cheeks.
You had two hours until you were meeting George, for now, you sat in the common room with Ron and Hermione whilst Harry had Occlumency lessons with Snape.
“What d’you keep giggling about?” Ron hissed at you, scowling “you’ve been at it all day and you’re freaking me out.”
You covered your face with your hands, taking a deep breath and trying to calm the bubbling of nerves and excitement.
“N-Nothing” you replied, “I think I inhaled a dodgy potion somebody was brewing in the second-floor toilets this morning” you lied, avoiding eye contact with your best friend and his crush, Hermione.
Ron gave you an odd look and flashed his eyes to Hermione, who glared at him and shrugged her shoulders.
“Shouldn’t you go to Madame Pomfrey?” she suggested, knitting another hat for the house-elves.
Nodding your head, you got out of your chair and pursed your lips, “yeah, I think I will” you lied again “let me go and get freshened up, she might want to keep me in overnight if the giggles get worse” you smirked, chuckling.
Leaving your friends behind, you hurried off to your dorm room, getting your makeup, clothes, and shoes ready to put on after your shower, placing your clothes and makeup bag on the bed, kicking your shoes on the floor beside it.
“I dunno what's up with her” Ron huffed, slouching in his chair beside the fire.
Hermione continued knitting “Well, hopefully, Madame Pomfrey can sort her out, uncontrollable giggling can get you sent to St. Mungo’s.”
Ron focused on the bobble hat coming together in front of his eyes, trying to make sense of your behaviour today and if there was something else going on after his brother played Hero during the end of your horrific date.
Wearing your best black denim front pocket Pinafore dress over your red and yellow striped turtleneck and black tights, you stared at yourself in the mirror, blushing slightly at the thought of George seeing you dolled up just for him. You pouted, deep in thought and unsure of what hairstyle to do, checking the time you were cutting it close and decided your go-to natural, no school but not overdoing it hairstyle would be best.
“Tomorrow night, where we first met” you reminded yourself, hearing George’s voice inside your head.
Thinking long and hard about when you first met George and where, you closed your eyes and tried to focus, all of your memories whizzing around in your head - you couldn’t help but feel your heart flutter knowing that not only did George remember, but he also perhaps thought of that day often.
Hurrying out of your dorm and back into the common room, Harry now sat down with Hermione and Ron, they all seemed taken aback by your appearance, furrowing their brows at you.
“You’re a bit dressed up for a doctors appointment, aren’t you?” Hermione called out.
Ron looked at you from head to toe “I think you’ve overdone it, mate-”
“See you later!” you giggled, a spring in your step as you left the common room, going through the portrait hole.
Ron, Harry, and Hermione exchanged looks, none of them knowing what to think or say was becoming a reoccurring factor today.
“Something isn’t right at all” Ron muttered “she’s up to something”
Reaching the owlery, you felt your excitement and nervousness compete against one another inside of you, being a few minutes early, you had enough time to admire all of the owls around you who were getting ready to go out hunting. Each of them unique and calming to look at, stroke, and hear a hoot. The memories finally coming back to you more clearly.
Your first week at Hogwarts went more awful than you ever imagined, you had got lost on the way to your classes, got into trouble by Percy - your houses Prefect and due to your terrible potion skills Snape put you in a weeks detention, your parents were so angry you received a Howler before anyone else in your class.
Feeling lost, alone, and in need of a friend, you wrote out your worries, concerns and everything else you were feelings into letters, addressed to your friends attending other Wizarding Schools (like Ilvermorny) across the globe.
Writing about your feelings, life, and anything, in general, helped to make you feel better, heard, and less isolated from the impressive and promising classmates that surrounded you.
Walking up the long and steep steps up to the Owlery, your heart melted at the Owls, some sleeping, some bobbing their heads around, and others appearing to be smiling at you. You felt connected to them in some sort of way, and spending time with them, knowing they didn’t care about your house, or how well you could make a feather float in the air made you feel more at ease.
You stared and smiled at your Tawny owl named Penny, you approached her trying to avoid the owl droppings and rat carcasses and stroked her softly, handing her your letters.
“Please deliver these safely,” you told her, tears filling your eyes again “it’s taken a lot for me to write them”
Penny accepted the letters and understood how important this job was, and how much it would mean to you, she pecked at your cheek, little kisses against your tears before she flapped her gorgeous wings and took flight.
Not wanting to go back down to your Herbology class to be a laughing stock, you stayed in the owlery, falling to the floor and weeping.
“If these reports get sent home mum will kill us” once voice spoke out, panting up the stairs.
“Well” replied a similar voice, also panting “we need to change our grades and get one of these owls to send it to her for us, it's why I made a fake replica”
Their voices and footsteps came closer.
“As long as Errol and Hermes aren’t delivering it, we’ll be fine Georgie.”
Two tall twins with ginger hair walked into the Owlery shiftily, both of them stopping in their tracks, noticing you crying on the floor, drowning in your robes.
George’s face and heart softened, he mouthed to his brother ‘leave it with me, I’ll get it sent, let me see why she’s upset’
Freddie nodded and slowly left the Owlery, trying not to make a sound.
You missed Penny with all your heart, after many trips she became so sick and injured no magic, and no amount of Hagrid’s care and love was enough to fix her wings and bring her back to life. When you lost Penny, you lost part of yourself, the Owlery wasn’t the same without her and each time you visited, you would break down into tears.
“You made it, early” George called out, pulling you out of your trip down memory lane, causing you to jump slightly.
You blinked back the forming tears and turned around to face him, the moonlight illuminating his best features through the open arches. “Didn’t want to be late” you replied, smiling nervously, stroking one of the owls.
“You were so little” George chuckled “but even after growing up so much somethings never change”
You cocked up an eyebrow and smirked, slightly confused “what do you mean?”
“The owls” he replied “your love for them, the time you make for them, it’s beautiful”
You could feel your cheeks heating up, your heart rate elevating.
“They’re special to me” you replied, trying not to come across as too shy.
George blushed too, his cheeks mirroring yours as he stepped closer, so close you could count each individual freckle across his face - something you had only done from across the halls or over the table.
“that’s why I asked for us to meet here,” George said softly, stepping closer to you, his breath brushing against you “because you’re special to me”
George took hold of your hand, tracing stars into your palm with his thumb, his eyes taking in your hair, your makeup, your outfit, and shoes. He started to lean in, as did you, your soft lips brushing against his cinnamon scented ones, but pulled away before you could share a kiss, smirking and winking at you.
“I’ve got a surprise for you,” he said nervously “I’ve been trying to give her to you for a while now, but whenever I’ve tried, Ron always got in the way”
You rolled your eyes “he always does” you replied “he doesn’t like the idea of us being together” you frowned, looking away from George and lowering your head, deciding to examine your shoes.
George lifted your chin up with his thumb, smiling at you “he doesn’t have to know” he paused “stay very quiet and follow me” he whispered, still holding your hand.
George walked you over to a very tired looking owl, her wings and body covering something small underneath her. George whispered to the owl “It’s George, she’s ready now”
The tired owl opened her googly eyes, staring at George, slowly and reluctantly moving away from her precious possession underneath her motherly wings. Underneath the wings lay a tiny owlet, its large magnificent eyes opening wide and staring at George, then you.
“I know he’ll never replace Penny” George murmured, wrapping his arm around you “but I want you to have a safe space here, I know how much of that Penny provided for you and I know how much of that changed when she passed away.”
You reached out your hand to stroke the baby, “it’s okay” you reassured his nervous mother “I’m not going to hurt him”
You ran the back of your finger down the Owlets fluffy back, its face showing signs of enjoyment and comfort, something rare amongst owls.
George watched in awe, the memories of you when you were much shorter and quieter flashing before him, now you were a beautiful young woman, with the same heart full of love and nurturing.
Tears of happiness streamed down your cheeks, you leaned into George and cuddled him, your face pressed against his chest, the scent of the burrow engulfing you.
“George - I - thank you, he’s beautiful”
George closed his eyes, taking in your face against his chest, his hand stroking your hair.
“I care for you, Y/N” he spoke out again “I know we were never that close, but you’re not just my little brother's friend to me”
You pulled yourself off his chest, looking up into his gorgeous eyes.
“like these owls, you’re unique, you’re special” he whispered.
“What’s your obsession with these owls anyway?” the tall boy asked, fiddling with his fake report.
“They’re unique” you replied quietly, walking around “they’re special”
George looked down into your eyes, his nose poking yours softly, leaning in, you didn’t pull back and allowed him to pull you gently into him.
His heart and yours racing, as your hand rested upon his chest, and his arm around your waist, your lips grazing against each other, turning into a deep, soft kiss.
