Sumery: Fred & George give their lover, Harry, a gift on St. Patrick's Day.


St. Patrick's Day, it was a day that muggles used to get as drunk as they could, not a big deal in the wizarding world. But that was not going to stop two red headed twins from doing something special for their lover, Harry Potter, of two years. The first thing they did was get everything they needed for a traditional dinner; corned beef, cabbage, and potatoes. Next they went to Diagon Ally. They wanted to find a gift for Harry, even though gifts were not traditionally given on this day.

They wandered up and down the Ally for hours and found nothing. Just as they were about to give up and try muggle London, Fred spotted a tiny shop nearly hidden between Flourish & Blots and the apothecary to the right. The hand painted sign over the door read Ends & Odds*.

"Hey George, have you ever seen this shop before?" Fed asked, pointing it out to his twin. He had this odd feeling that his brother was about to say that he hadn't seen it before.

George grinned. "Nope. Let's check it out, who knows we will find." With that he headed in to the shop, Fred on his heels.

Shop reminded them of a muggle antiques shop, rather dusty smelling and cramped. It only took a few minutes before they found the perfect gift.

That evening Harry walked up the stairs to the flat he shared with his lovers, Fred & George Weasley. It had been a long day at Flourish & Blots. One of the most popular writers in both the magical and muggle worlds, who happened to be a witch, had been meeting fans signing autographs all afternoon. Harry just wanted to curl up on the couch between the twins and relax.

Turning from hanging his cloak on the cloak rack Harry saw the twins standing by the dining table. They were each in tight black jeans and emerald green silk shirts, with matching grins on their faces. Behind them the table was obviously set for a romantic dinner, something that the twins didn't do often. There were green candles flickering and a beautiful bouquet of flowers; with roses of all colors, bells of Ireland, and snap-dragons.

"What's up guys?" Harry asked. He loved when they did things like this, but being who they were Harry always had the fleeting thought that there was some prank involved.

"Happy St. Patrick's Day!" they said, perfectly in sync with each other. Just hearing them do that sent pleasant shivers up and down Harry's spine.

Harry was a bit confused though, St. Patrick's Day was a muggle holiday. One that most muggles felt the only way to celebrate was by wearing as much green as they could, and by getting falling down drunk on green beer. Why did the twins want to celebrate this holiday?

Letting his confusion show in his voice Harry said, "Same to you. But why are we celebrating a muggle holiday?"

Fred smiled as he stepped forward to take Harry's hand and lead him to the table. "We just wanted to do something nice for the man we love."

As the three of them sat down, one of the twins on each side of Harry, George continued. "You have been working so hard lately that we felt you needed a night to just relax."

Harry smiled; he loved these two so much. They always seemed to know just what he needed. He had been working hard, and his job was more stressful than he could have imagined when he took it. But he didn't care, he loved his job, and having the George and Fred to come home to made the stress melt away.

After dinner the three men curled up on the couch together to watch a movie. (Hermione had found a spell that allowed them to run a TV and DVD player off of magic.) Before starting the movie George placed a box in Harry's lap. It was wrapped in silver paper with little shamrocks scattered over it and a large gold bow.

Slowly Harry unwrapped the box, careful not to tear the paper setting it aside. Lifting off the lid he set it aside as well and gently pushed aside the tissue paper, revealing a ceramic figurine. Lifting it from the box Harry saw that it was three dolphins swimming through the air. They seemed to be dancing, twining around each other, a nose or fin brushing here or there.

Harry looked up with tears in his eyes. "It's beautiful guys!" Wrapping his arms, first around George and then Fred, he kissed them. "I love you two so much!" His voice was soft, but full of emotion.
"We love you too, Harry!" Again they spoke together, almost as though they were one person.

Smiling the three men snuggled together and started their movie. St. Patrick's Day might be a muggle holiday, but for these three wizards it would always be a special day.


AN:

Okay this was so sweet you might have a few cavities now. Good, bad, whatever, please let me know what you thought of it.

The name of the shop, Ends & Odds, was my Mom's idea. Thanks Mom!
