AN/ I own nothing of Harry Potter!
A week had passed since the students had returned to Hogwarts. Harry was walking into the classroom he and his friends used to meet up, with a smile on his face. He was happy to have the girls back from break and couldn't wait to spend time with them. He walked in to find all three sitting around the big desk, or in Andie's case, sitting on the desk. He couldn't help the skip in his heartbeat from seeing them.
"Hey, girls, how are you today?" he asked.
They turned their attention to him and each gained a beautiful smile. "Hi, Harry," they chorused.
They then looked at each other and smiled with a nod. Harry raised an eyebrow as Andie drew her wand and flicked it. "Colloportus!" The door behind him suddenly closed with a soft squelching sound.
"What's going on, girls?" he asked, tensing up a bit.
"We just need to talk to you in private, Harry. Please come and sit," Amelia asked, indicating the chair in front of the desk.
Harry watched them warily as he moved to sit behind the desk. He knew it was them, but still, this was odd. Once he was sat down, the three turned to look at him. "Harry, we need to talk to you about something really important," Lily started.
"You see, Harry, over the last year, we feel that things have changed between us," Andie continued the story.
"Our feelings have changed for you, Harry," Amelia said, getting up and moving a bit closer to him. His heart started beating faster as the other two girls did the same.
"You always seem to know what to say to make us feel better," Lily said, taking another step.
"How to calm us down," Andie said with a step.
"How to make us relax," Amelia said.
"You make us feel welcome and cared for," Lily said with yet another step.
By now, the three girls were right in front of him, looking down at him. His heart was hammering in his chest. "You make us feel safe," Andie said, her eyes sparkling.
Amelia leaned forward a bit. "And that's why we fell in love with you," she said, planting a soft kiss on his cheek. Her action was quickly followed up by the other three girls.
Harry's brain was now in meltdown. His mouth was open, and his eyes wide. The girls giggled a bit at the look on his face before Andie stepped up to make the next declaration. "What we are trying to say, Harry, is, will you go out with us?"
That seemed to snap him out of whatever trance he was in. He looked up into their shining eyes that looked at him expectantly. "You... all three of you want to date me?"
"Of course, silly," Lily said with her beautiful bright smile.
"We talked about it, and with our moms, and we decided that we were okay with sharing you, Harry. We all have been feeling this way since the end of last year, but we didn't know that you could marry more than one woman and didn't know if you would be okay with being shared. But we couldn't wait any longer. So once my mother told us that we should share you and explained things, we decided to go for it," Amelia explained.
"I even got permission from my grandfather to pursue a relationship with you," Andie said.
Harry sat there for a long moment thinking over what they had just said. Slowly a smile crept across his face. It looked like the professor was right. These things do have a way of working themselves out.
"If you girls are positive that this is what you want, then I would gladly go out with you," he said, standing up. "If you are positive that's what you want." They smiled and launched themselves into his open arms. He held them close as all four smiled widely. "Hey, would you girls do me the great honor of escorting me to Hogsmead for Valentine's Day?"
They all smiled widely. "Look at you getting the early jump on things," Amelia teased him.
Harry blushed a bit. "Yeah, I suppose you are right. I should wait until it gets closer."
Andie shook her head against his cheek. "Nonsense, it's good to have things set up in advance so you don't have to worry later."
"Exactly, we would love to go with you for Valentine's Day, Harry," Lily said, smiling wider.
Harry just hugged them tighter. It was good knowing that they felt the same way for him as he did for them. "Then I can't wait."
It didn't take long for the rumor to spread that Harry Pendragon was no longer on the market. It was also not much of a secret as to who took him off it. It was now an even rarer sight to see him away from the three girls. They never showed public affection outside of hugs and holding hands. Truth was, though, that they had not yet kissed even in private. They were taking things slow and just enjoying their time together.
Before long, however, it was Valentine's Day, and Harry had a small bouquet of flowers delivered to each girl and set upon their nightstands by Trixie. Violets for Andie, Carnations for Amelia, and Tulips for Lily. He was currently nervously standing in front of a mirror, trying to make sure his outfit was perfect. This was his first date in this timeline and only his second total if you counted the disaster with Cho Chang in his fifth year.
Finally, he let out a sigh. This was as good as it was going to get, and if he wasted any more time, he would be late meeting them in the entrance hall. He walked over to Larry and held out his arm, letting the crimson snake slither up his arm.
"You look fine, Harry. They will love it no matter what you wear, you know?" Smart Larry said.
"I know that, Larry, but I want to make a good impression. You know, show them that I am serious about this dating thing. If I showed up not looking presentable, then it would look like I wasn't taking things seriously. Like they weren't worth the effort," Harry told his familiar as they made their way out of the common room. He turned a few female heads as he walked through to the door.
"Just relax, Harry, it will all work out. Just focus on having a good time and not what they think. They already love you," Larry said.
"Yeah, you're right. I can't focus too hard on it," Harry sighed.
They made their way down to the entrance hall to wait for them. The girls had gone to an unused classroom to get ready together, and he couldn't wait to see them. He was nervously looking at an odd painting of a grassy field with nothing in it when he heard his name being called. He turned around, and his jaw felt as though it had fallen off.
Standing before him were the three most beautiful creatures he had ever laid eyes upon. Even Fleur Delacour had nothing on these three. Amelia was on the right, wearing an amazing yellow dress as the day was to be somewhat warm. It clung to her form, accentuating her budding chest. She had a light silk shawl over her shoulders, and her hair was pulled into a high ponytail and fell to just below her shoulders. Her blue eyes sparkled upon seeing him, drawing him in like a cool and calm pool.
Next to her in the middle stood Andie in a dark blue dress and a black shawl over her pale shoulders. Her long brown hair cascaded down like a chocolate waterfall down to her waist. The dress showed just enough of her modest breast to still be appropriate while also being slightly provocative. The dress flared a bit at the waist where her hips flared out slightly. Her violet eyes looked him over in appreciation.
On the right stood Lily in a dark red dress similar to the others with a red shawl over her shoulders. Her long crimson locks fell to her mid-back in soft ringlets. Her dress did much the same as Andie's, barely showing off her well-sized chest. Her long legs seemed to go on forever.
"Do you like what you see, Harry?" Lily asked with a giggle.
"Wow, just wow," he stammered. "You girls look absolutely stunning."
The three blushed at his words but smiled, nonetheless. They each moved over to him with Lilly and Amelia taking each arm. He looked at Andie apologetically, who simply giggled. "Don't worry, Harry, we know you only have two arms. So, we took it upon ourselves to come up with a schedule of sorts on who gets to hold onto you and when," she said with a giggle.
Harry nodded his head in understanding as he started to lead them out of the castle. There were not many students out yet, as most liked eating breakfast in the great hall, but those that were stared. It was hard not to when three of the prettiest girls in the school were hanging off one guy. Many of the boys were sending him looks of jealousy. The girls were receiving the same looks from other females as Harry was seen as quite the catch.
Filch sneered at them as he checked their names off the list of students leaving. Harry held open the door to the carriage and helped each girl climb the steps. Once they were in and settled, he climbed in as well. He found himself sitting between Andie and Lily this time. He casually brought his arms up and behind them over the seat. It was a comfortable ride down to the village. They mainly talked about school for the ride.
Once there, Harry hopped out and helped each girl down. "So where would you girls like to go first?"
The girls looked at one another. "Well, I need to get some things from Scrivenshafts," Lily said.
"I wouldn't mind looking at Zonko's to get back at Edgar for his prank last week," Amelia huffed.
"I wouldn't mind going to the bookstore," Andie chimed in.
Harry nodded in thought. "Well then, let's go to each, and then we can go down to the Three Broomsticks for lunch and then finish the day over at Honeydukes." All three girls' eyes lit up at the mention of Honeydukes.
Harry laughed as he was pulled off by Andie and Amelia toward the first stop. A few hours went by as the quartet enjoyed their date. By the time they made it to the Three Broomsticks, they were red-faced from laughter. It had been a fantastic day so far.
They slid into a booth with Lilly sitting next to Harry and leaning her head against his shoulder as they continued to talk while looking at the menu. It didn't take long before Madam Rosmerta made it to the table. "Well, hello there dears, what can I get you today?" she said with a smile.
"I will take the beef stew, please," Amelia said with a smile.
"Can I have the fish and chips?" Andie asked.
"The corned beef for me, please," Lily said.
"I will take the shepherd's pie, please," Harry ordered with a smile.
"Of course dears, it will be out shortly. Can I get you anything to drink in the meantime?"
"Four Butterbeers, please," Harry added for them. The girls gave him a large smile as the waitress left their table. The conversation had now turned to what they planned for the summer holidays.
"So, Harry, we know that you will be doing the tournament over break, but are you planning on going anywhere else this year?" Andie asked curiously.
Harry nodded. "Yeah, I'm planning on going down to Africa to study a few things. I've heard there are some tribes there that know some good transfigurations," he said, not wanting to tell them the truth in a crowded location.
Lily's eyes sparkled at the mention of learning something new. "Oh, please, send me back a new book from there. It would be so cool to learn about the indigenous tribes and their views on magic."
Harry laughed a bit at her enthusiasm and gave her a side-armed hug. "Yes, of course I will send you something back, Lills. I can promise that." Lily smiled, as did the other two, knowing he would be sending something to them as well. "So what about you girls, what's your plans?"
Lily was about to say something when they heard a rather annoying voice behind them. "Lily, what are you doing sitting so close to Pendragon? You should be sitting next to me," James Potter said petulantly, coming to their table.
"And why wouldn't I be sitting so close to him, Potter? He is my boyfriend after all, or have you really not heard yet," she asked, annoyed at the interruption to a perfect day.
"B-boyfriend!?" James all but shouted, drawing a few looks. "But you're supposed to go out with me. I'm the one that is the best option for you! I'm on the light side, not some Dark wizard! He will just use you as his sex slave or something. Come on, Lily, I'll show you what a real man is like."
He started to reach for her arm, and Harry had his wand ready if needed. However, it wasn't needed, as Lily sent a freezing curse at the peak of his legs where they connected. Potter went to the ground screaming in pain. "Don't you ever touch me, Potter. You are lucky that it was me cursing you because I can only imagine what Harry would have done. Now leave before you ruin our day anymore."
Sirius rushed forward, dragging Pettigrew behind him, and picked up James. He looked back at Andie and gave a small smile. "Sorry, Andie. Have fun on your date."
Andie just blushed and stuck her tongue out at him. They watched him drag Potter away crying to the hospital wing. With that little incident over with now, they started talking again as Rosmerta brought over their food.
They wrapped up the day with a trip into Honeydukes, where Harry bought them all some chocolate. The ride back to the castle had him sitting beside Andie and Amelia. All four were laughing and smiling as they entered the castle. They prepared to go their separate ways at the foot of the grand staircase.
"Well, ladies, I had a lot of fun today and hope that we can do this again soon," Harry said with a smile.
The girls looked at each other and nodded. "We would love to, Harry," Andie said.
"You know, girls, I think that he was quite the gentleman today, don't you?" Amelia asked with a sly grin.
"Oh, yes indeed," Lily said with a smile.
"Well, then, I think he deserves a little reward," Andie said, leaning forward.
Before Harry knew what was going on, he felt Andie's soft pink lips pressed against his. The kiss wasn't long, only lasting ten seconds, but he felt sparks going off in his mind and warmth spreading through his body. Andie pulled away, and the exact same process was repeated two more times, with sparks going off every time. The girls pulled back to see a goofy smile spread on his face and giggled.
"Good night, Harry," Andie said, leaning in, leaving a kiss on his cheek.
"See you tomorrow, Harry," Amelia said, kissing his other cheek.
"Sleep tight, Harry," Lilly said, leaning up and planting one on his forehead.
The three giggling girls left a stunned Harry at the foot of the grand staircase as his mind processed what had happened. Minutes ticked by until Remus walked by from dinner. He stopped and stared at his friend for a long moment with a raised eyebrow at his goofy grin.
"Ah, Harry mate, you okay?" He asked.
"Yeah," was the dreamy reply.
Remus smiled a bit as he remembered what his friend had done all day. "I take it that the date went good then?"
The smile only grew, and his eyes lost focus. "Absolutely wonderful..." He whispered.
Remus just chuckled and shook his head. "Come on, lover boy, let's get you upstairs before flies enter your mouth."
Remus led him to the Ravenclaw dorms where he managed to stop Xeno Lovegood to help him in. Remus shook his head in amusement of his friend as he made his way to his own common room. He had a letter to write and only hoped that Petunia liked the lilies he had sent her for Valentine's day. He hoped he wasn't overstepping with her, but he really liked her.
