Two quick notes: First off, stuff in * … * are thoughts. Second… I wasn't sure quite how to write this part. I couldn't decide which twin's POV I wanted this from, so I did both at once. Kinda… I really like this POV, actually, as it was very fun to write. What do you think of it? Tell me.
Anyways, thanks, and enjoy!

"We've finally caught our ickle-Ronniekins in the act!"
"And it's about time, too!"
Ron is staring at us, looking scared and angry. Harry's blushing a red so bright that it almost hurts to look at it. Hah hah… They're hilarious.
"Our little brother and The Boy Who Lived…"
"What a perfect couple!"
Ron's out of the bed now and heading over towards us, the expression on his face murderous. This should be fun.
"What are you doing, just bursting into my room like that?" he yells, stopping right in front of us and leaning forwards. "What would you have done if I'd been changing or something?"
We grin identical grins, and our gazes go to the boy in the bed behind our brother. "Push you back onto the bed,"
"And let Harry thank us later!"
Harry blushes even more, and Ron looks like he has no idea what to do. We've surprised him; he doesn't know how to react to our teasing, the poor git.
* Maybe we should ease off on him a little? *
* Maybe… But he won't be any fun if we give him chance to recover! *
* Then we don't have to. We just shock him with a little surprise of our own… *
* We don't have too long, Lee will be over any second now. *
* Good point. We'll wait until tomorrow, then. *
* And Lee can help. *
* Even better. *
"Anyways, it doesn't matter."
"You weren't changing, so it's okay."
"We just wanted to tell you that Lee's coming over."
"We'll probably be in our room."
"Or outside somewhere."
"But we don't want to be disturbed."
"You could get hurt if you walk in on us."
"Experimenting for new items to add to the inventory of Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes."
"Have to start rebuilding since Mum took up all our supplies again."
"If we don't come down for supper, don't bother getting us."
"We'll eat later."
There's a knock at the front door downstairs; it must be Lee. Even now that he can Apparate he maintains that it's bad manners to just appear in someone's house all of a sudden, even if he's been invited.
He may never care about rules, or proper language, but he's a stickler for manners. Bloody polite to Mum all the time…
"That's for us."
"Gotta be Lee."
"See ya later Ron, Harry."
We both turn and bound out of the room, racing to see who can get to the front door first. Sure, we could just Apparate, but there's something so much more satisfying about racing…
It's quiet behind us for a few seconds, then we hear Ron's bedroom door close. Not that we care or anything; the front door's only a yard in front of us, and we both want to reach it first…
Our hands grasp the doorknob simultaneously, and we swing it open to reveal our best friend, Lee Jordan.
* It's good to see him. *
* We've got to keep him, at least 'til Mum comes back…*
* Why just until then? *
* She'd flip if we slipped up! *
* Then why not just tell her? We've already graduated from Hogwarts, and if she kicks us out we can just go stay with someone till we get the business up and running. *
* We'll talk about it later. There are more important things to take care of right now. *
* Yeah, like Lee! *
The entire wordless conversation flies between our minds in the space of less than a second, and we both throw our arms around Lee, pushing him backwards and tackling him.
"Good to see the two of you, too!" he laughs, looking up at us. His eyes are sparkling, and his hair is pooled around his head.
* Ours, * we think together. Neither of us moves to get up, because we're perfectly comfortable just as we are.
"Hey, come on. Let's go put my stuff in your room and we can get down to business," Lee says, squirming beneath us. We shrug as we roll off of him and stand up, then help him carry his luggage to our room.
The minute we're inside our room we close the door, toss the bags onto the floor, and wrap our arms around him again.
"Time for a proper hello."
"It's been so long since we last saw you…"
"Did you miss us?"
"We've missed you, Lee."
He grins, and he's even more gorgeous than he was a second ago. "Of course I missed you. How couldn't I? It's tough living without my guys…" His lips capture each of ours, the action teasingly soft.
Our thoughts are together again.
* Love him. *
* Love you. *
Then we go back to saying hello.
