How (George Weasley X Blind!Reader)

Author's Note: Not really alternate universe, but it is a bit in the sense that Fred doesn't die and he gets married to Angelina.  c:

George’s eyes widened in surprise as the __h/c__-haired girl walked past him.

She was gorgeous.

She turned her head slightly and he waved at her, frowning when she didn’t smile or wave back.

Fine then. He didn’t know her, why would she wave back at a stranger who probably looked like a complete lunatic? George shrugged it off, resuming his walk to Fred and Angelina’s house.

-------------

“So you’re telling me that you’re in love with a girl that you only saw for two seconds?” Fred asked in disbelief, chuckling at his twin’s foolishness.

“I didn’t say I was in love with her.” George argued. “She was just…really pretty. I don’t know, I just want to see her again.”

“Good luck with that, mate.” Fred said, pitying his poor, dull brother. “Why didn’t you go say hello?”

George shrugged.

“I wanted to, but my feet wouldn’t move and by the time they finally did move again, she was gone.”

Fred shook his head, clapping George on the shoulder.

“Who knows, maybe you’ll see her again.”

----------------

“Fred!” George hissed, jabbing his brother’s side.

“What?” Fred hissed back, rubbing a hand over his side with a glare.

“That’s her!”

“That’s who?”

“That girl I told you about a couple of months ago.” George said, hiding behind a shelf. “I didn’t know that she was a witch.” George commented, watching as she strolled along, running her fingers along boxes of Extendable Ears and Skiving Snackboxes.

“Then go talk to her.” Fred said simply, pushing George towards the girl.

“Do you need help finding anything?” George asked politely, scratching the back of his neck awkwardly.

“Ah, yes actually! My little sister has been asking for a Pygmy Puff so I decided it was time to get her one. Can you show me where they are?”

“They’re right over there.” George answered, pointing to the left.

“Would you mind leading me in whatever direction you were pointing?” You asked with a chuckle. George took a closer look at you, not entirely realizing what was wrong. “I’m blind.” You explained, clacking your cane on the ground.

“Oh. Oh! I’m sorry.” George apologized, lightly grabbing your wrist and leading you to the Pygmy Puff cages.

“Don’t be. I’m used to it.” You said with a shrug.

“Have you been blind since birth or?”

“Since birth.” You answered.

“Ah. Well, here we are. What color does she want? We have pink and purple.”

“Purple, please.”

George nodded in response, wincing when he realized that you couldn’t see it. George grabbed the cage, carefully putting it in your free hand.

“Thanks. How much is it?”

“It’s on the house.”

“I may be blind, but I have money.” You said, eyes narrowing slightly.

“No! I mean, I’m sure you do, that’s not why.” George said quickly.

You raised an eyebrow at him.

“You’re really pretty.”

 “So, I get free stuff because I’m pretty?” You asked in amusement.

“Exactly. Okay, you see, I saw you on the street a few months ago, but I didn’t get a chance to properly meet you. And I want to get to know you. So yeah, free stuff.”

“Or you could let me pay for my own stuff and you could just ask me on a date?” You offered, smiling cheekily at him.

“…Deal.”

---------------

“I just realized that I don’t even know your name.” You said in surprise, after the boy had offered to walk you home.

“It’s George. George Weasley.”

“Nice to meet you, George.” You said, pausing in your walk. “I’m __y/n__.” You said, turning to him and holding out your hand.

“Nice to officially meet you too.” George responded, grabbing your hand and pressing a kiss to your knuckles.

-----------------

“George?”

“Yeah?”

“Where are we? I always count the steps so I know how to get home, but somebody distracted me.”

“Aw, did I distract you with my attractiveness?”

“…I’m blind.”

“Oh. Yeah. Never mind. Just know that I really am very attractive.”

“I’ll keep that in mind. Now, how the fuck are we going to find my house?”

End.  <3
