bucket list. [fred weasley]

introduction: the end of an era.

"Oh, shut it. First, you weren't looking for me and second, you insult me."

"How are you so sure I wasn't looking for you?"

"Twin-tuition." George claimed.

Though Fred asked around about both Y/n & George, he half expected to run into her first solely because whenever the two of them were alone, Georgie would appear.

In this case, it would've been beneficial.

George observed the people around the room and because he was an inch taller than Fred, he thought he had an advantage.

Ironically, that inch did make a difference though as his eyes trailed to something behind Fred. He pushed passed Fred to embrace Y/n in a hug first.

Something he'd done a million times before to see if she could tell Fred and him apart. She always did.

George's dirty hands left imprints on the back of Y/n's blouse as he clutched the material to his chest and sighed contently.

Fred's eyebrow raised playfully as he locked eyes with Y/n, an immediate sigh of relief escaping his lips without his knowledge.

Not taking her eyes off of Fred, she returned the hug and her smile reached her eyes: "Hi, Georgie."

"How can you always tell us apart?"
Georgie asked bewildered as he squeezed her shoulders and looked at her face.

"I just know."

If she wanted to be mean, she could have told him that his missing ear was the indicator. She wouldn't have though, mostly because Georgie was secretly her favorite.

"I'll take your word for it. I'm going to find mom & dad to make sure they're okay." George excused himself, not so discretely wiggling his eyebrows at Freddie.

"I'll be right there!" Fred called after him, his eyes moving back to Y/n as he grinned and then swooped her up.

"Freddie!"

Y/n couldn't contain her smile as she wrapped her arms around the man.

She could remember chasing him around the Burrow and giving him her first kiss when they were six.

She buried her head in his neck, "I'm so glad that you're okay. After we got separated, I was so worried that I'd never see you again... that I'd never even get to say goodbye...if something happened to you,"

Her eyes watered involuntarily and her fingers dug into his back.

"You're mad if you think that I'd leave you alone. Besides, you, Georgie, and mum need me too much." He teased her as his hand soothingly rubbed your back.

His lips grazed her hair.

As he shut his eyes, the faint scent of her shampoo wafted into his nose and his lips twitched into a smile once more.

"I was worried about you too, but I knew you would be able to hold your own in a fight."

"...which reminds me." She pulled back from the embrace to show him her bloodied dominant hand, "I didn't want to bother anyone about it. It wasn't too bad before, but now it's beginning to sting like a b*tch." She commented through a pained laugh.

"Let's get that patched up then, I'm sure my family will want to see you and make sure that you aren't seriously hurt. Especially mom. If she sees your hand though, she might disown me as her son."

"You're probably right about that."
