Chapter Twenty Four: Payback Galore

They took him first to Glendalough to see the towers which were beautiful; Harry seemed to really like the place and the myths surrounding it. They spent about three hours just walking the area looking at the beautiful building before they took him to Blarney castle where he instantly fell in love with the gardens. It was a pleasure for both of them to watch as his eyes light up and he just walked around enjoying the view and the beautiful place, instead of kissing the Blarney stone both just kissed Harry who tinted pink some before kissing their cheeks and running off to view the gardens some more. They found it amazing how innocent he could look while also being so gorgeous, after the castle they took him to Dublin to the Brother Hubbard coffee shop.

As they got their food and coffee the three settled at a small table and Harry chuckled as he sipped his drink. Getting looked at he looked at his meal not bothering to explain what was so funny, "Harry what are you laughing at?" Lucius finally asked before Harry just smiled some, "Harry?"

"I know that look," Tom said before raising an eyebrow of suspicion and he smirked some knowing that whatever it was would be really good since the look was one Harry got normally during his coffee crazed scheming mindset, "What did you do?"

"Me do something? Never," Harry said before looking back and continuing his meal. It was not until they left the small restaurant that the two realized what he had done, for outside the restaurant were two men both holding a box and the men approached handed them the box and walked off, "You guys treated me to a vacation so I got you gifts," and he smiled as they stared at the packages they held, "As a thank you."

Moving to a bench the two sat down and opened the boxes, inside were coats, Tom got a black coat which was stylish and warm looking yet airy at the same time. Lucius got a grey coat that was more of a knee length trench and he loved it, they were coats that the two pulled on over the sweaters they wore since it was cold out. They had not thought it was cold enough to bother with jackets but at the castle they had felt the cold.

"Oh Harry," Tom said before getting a sweet smile that had his heart pounding, he sometimes wondered if they were trying to seduce the green eyed angelic devil or if he was trying to seduce them by acting so naïve and sweet, "Thank you."

"Huh," Lucius pulled a small satchel from his trench coats pocket, looking inside he saw some of the hard tac candy he was fond of and blinked before looking at Harry, "How did you…this is my favorite."

"I'll never tell," Harry said happily before checking the list they had made of all the spots to visit in Ireland he bit his lip as he decided where to head out to next, "I think we should go-" yet he was interrupted by Tom's triumphant noise.

"Aha," Tom pulled out a satchel of soft peppermint candies his complete favorite, "Oh sorry where are we going?" he asked setting the candy back in his pocket.

"Kilkenny," Harry said and laughed as they each took his hand to lead him to an apparation point, once there he smiled and held their hands as he pulled them forward, "Oh wow look at how colorful this place is," the city was decked out in different vibrant colors and the smell of ale was in the air, "Amazing," he dragged them into a shop and let go of their hands to start piling things into their arms, and then he motioned for them to follow him to the counter where he paid for everything.

For hours they went from shop to shop until finally Harry was exhausted and they went home, the teenager dropped on the couch and smiled some before relaxing and asking, "Well did you two have fun? I did," and both dropped down as if more tired than Harry was, "You two realize everything I bought is for you two right?"

"What? Harry no," Tom said moving he took the young man's hands and kissed the back of them, "You don't have to buy us things we're your friends even without all the gifts."

"Consider it payback then," Harry chuckled some before dropping to lay on the couch which meant Tom had to let go of his hands, "I mean you guys did buy me five different homes just to avoid the war."

"How do you know these things?" Lucius asked dropping into a chair, they had not told him he owned the house or that they had bought five in all. Nor had they ever mentioned their favorite candies to him before.

Harry smiled brightly as his eyes closed, sleep was starting to take him from the crazed day and he murmured, "I just notice these things," and he peeked his eyes open some and licked his lips as if trying to stay awake, "You both have the habit of keeping your candy on your desks," his eyes closed as a small sigh left him as sleep claimed him.

Leaning down Tom pressed a kiss to Harry's neck and whispered, "Sleep well," as he walked off Lucius repeated what he had done only instead of the teenagers neck he kissed his forehead , but the blond covered Harry up as well.
