Harry Potter One Shots

One Sided (George Weasley) Pt 2

A/N: Part 2 of One Sided

Y/n POV:
It had been 5 years. 5 years since I was crowned Queen, the sole ruler. My father removed the law of having a husband to rule, so the engagement between Adrian and I ended, there was no hard feelings, he could rule his kingdom.

5 years since I seen George. Last I heard, my sister left with him to Devon and they were together. I was happy that she had someone who had her heart. Though I was still a bit heartbroken that they were together, but I couldn't dwell on a broken heart.

"Is everything in order for tonight's gala?" I asked Adrian. The two of us stayed friends and had a good alliance. We thought throwing a gala would give a little break from the stress we have made.

"Yes, the guest will arrived at 6pm." He replied. "Have you heard from your sister?"

"No I haven't, last I heard she left for Devon with George and his family." I answered. I wondered if they were happy together, would they be married, have children?

"You're doing it again." Adrian said snapping me out of my thoughts. Lately I have been in my head a lot, not paying attention to the world around me.

"Sorry." I apologized. "My thoughts are the only thing that keep me going these days."

"I understand, why don't you go relax and get ready, I can handle everything." Adrian smiled.

"Thank you Adrian." I smiled before walking towards my chambers. Since my ruling, my mother and father stepped down, but still live in the castle. The people were happy with a new queen, I brought new modern ideas which helped greatly in everyone's favor.

Once I walked into my room, my handmaid was already in the bathroom running a bath. Marie had to be one of my closet friends, I trusted her with secrets I never told anyone else. She had been there for me since I was queen.

"Are you excited for this evening." She asked sitting on a chair while I soaked in a bath, some may say it would be innopriate to have your maid in your bathroom, but the two of us would disagree.

"Yes I am, I haven't been to a gala in ages." I smiled.

After my bath, we went over to my vanity, Marie starting with my hair while I applied my own makeup. Once we both finished, she walked over to my closet, pulling out a pink dress. After we put on the corset and hoops and dressed, I made my way towards the grand staircase.

"Presenting, Queen Y/n of Bristol." The doors opened and I led down the stairs, everyone seemed to stop and stare while applauding. I looked through the room, looking for my sister, but not finding her.

"The annual waltz." They called out. Women and Men lined up in lines, we proceeded to walked to each other, slowly promenading each other which our right hands up, not touching. I continued to dance with Adrian the two of us having small conversation before we were switched to our next partner.

"Ronald." I smiled at the youngest Weasley boy. "Looking sharp as always."

"Thank you my Queen." He smiled.

"We have known each other for years, no need for titles." I smiled. "And if I remember correctly, someone has married Ms. Hermione Granger, congratulations."

"Thank you." He replied. "Have you found a significant other?"

"No, it has just been me, but if someone comes along, who knows what will happen in the future." I answered

"You know George still thinks about you." He said softly.

"Isn't he with my sister?" I furrowed my eyebrows. Before he could answer, we switched partners.

"Y/n." George breathed out. He was older, more defined.

"Hello George." I gave him a small smile.

"How are you?" He asked.

"I'm good." I answered. "How are you and my sister?"

"What?" He looked at me confused. "Jenna and I broke up 4 years ago, she left Devon saying she was coming back home."

"Wait, what!" I said shocked. "I haven't heard from her since she left with you 5 years ago, and what happened between you two?"

"It didn't work out between us, and I learned I loved someone else, and she knew it too." He answered. That little crush from 5 years ago, reentered my heart, giving me some sense of hope, maybe he had liked me back, but I was a different person than I was 5 years ago, I'm now queen.

"Oh." I tried not to sound disappointed. "She must be lucky."

"Yeah." He smiled.

"Is she here tonight?" I raised an eyebrow.

"She is, she has hair tied up, minimal makeup, a beautiful pink dress and the most  memorizing (e/c) eyes I have ever seen." He grinned.

"That's nice...Oh!" Realization hit.

"I know that you liked me all those years ago and I didn't know it at the time, I liked you the same way even more, but I guess your sister and I had been more closer in that month. I'm sorry for never realizing soon enough." He confessed.

"It's okay." I smiled. "But I don't know if you still want to be with me, I wasn't the same girl I was 5 years ago. I rule a kingdom, I couldn't give you attention you wanted, I wouldn't be there all the time."

"That doesn't matter, I would wait months just know I could have a minute of your time. I just want to be with you." He moved to his hand to caress my cheek. I leaned into the touch, smiling. "We don't have to move fast, we take this at whatever speed you want."

"I do want to pursue this, I truly do. But I think it would be unfair to you, I have some much on my plate already and I don't want us to be together and never being able to see each other." I said sadly.

"Hey, it's alright, I will wait forever, knowing in the end we can be together is enough for me." He confessed. "I love you."

"I love you too George." I said.
