Of course, end it did, as a week before the wedding � to the day, mind � the elder Malfoys threw an engagement party for the couple. It was sure to be a crush, but the reactions of some of the more volatile guests were what worried the family � Lucius had to wince at the thought that he was beginning to find himself growing...dare he ever even think it...fond of the Weasley twins. The Satoshi girls � as they were in his mind, just to keep things nice and straight � were of course immediately accepted in his mind, but as they were girls, they spent their time with Hermione and Narcissa. Leaving their husbands, on the days they chose to come along, to keep company with Draco and Lucius, if they were present.

Lucius wanted to kill them both for worming their way into his affection. They were foul, low-class, exasperating little gits.

They were also currently completely off track of their previous conversation on the best ways to garner excellent publicity, and had fallen to pantomiming a fight. Something one had said had set the other one off, and now � no words spoken, as Draco had finally lost his temper and silenced them both with a spell � had begun to take false swings and kicks at one another.

Lucius could not help but shake his head in bewilderment while his son lay hunched over in the fetal position from laughing for the past twenty minutes. It was only when the women entered � namely the wives of the two lunatics before him � that he had the lack of grace to look utterly relieved, and shoot his wife a pleading look of help.

�Oh dear.� Hermione sighed, as Eriko began to glower at the two men. Waiting for them to notice. George paused a moment with one hand held palm out to his brother in order to get him to pause, grinned like an idiot and waved to his wife with his free hand, then went right back into the act.

The boy was insane. Lucius was sure of it � he was off his bloody rocker to do something like that when Eriko looked as though she would gleefully skin him alive to make herself a nice ball gown.

�Fred.� Akiko's quiet warning had him glancing away from his fight, and upon seeing the darkness growing around his sister-in-law and the look his wife held that said she would not stop her sister, he threw his hands up in the air and darted from the room waving his arms around like a lunatic.

If he'd had voice, the boy surely would have been screaming falsetto. Through the doorway, the entire group could see him running around the smaller sitting room that lead off of Lucius's study. By this point even George looked utterly confused, his head cocked to one side with one finger tapping his chin as though contemplating whether or not he knew what to make of this.

�Could someone please explain to me why that boy is now running in circles around my sitting room, in a manner that would allow me to be certain I am wise in not contacting St. Mungo's immediately?� Lucius finally asked in a mixture of amusement and worry. He wished he had not as George began to attempt to mime something, Draco now staring at him with his head tilted to the side.

�...If I am not mistaken, it has something to do with...a monkey stealing his banana?� The utter confusion in his voice as George began nodding excitedly, gesturing with yet more enthusiasm. Narcissa was just staring with slightly parted lips at the freckled red-head now diving over sofas and rolling around the floor in the sitting room. �...and then the squirrel absconded with his nuts?�

�...so we've found another who can translate George-speak.� Ginny's voice was amused as she spoke from the doorway just beside Hermione, who was laughing so hard at his translation that there were tears running down her cheeks. �Unfortunately, no one ever knows just what any of that is supposed to mean.�

�I get the feeling it has something to do with Akiko emasculating him by warning him that she would, in fact, throw him to the tiger that is currently about to take on a rather spider-like trait.� Lucius murmured, watching as Eriko stalked up behind her husband and smacked him in the back of the head, before grabbing him by the back of the collar and dragging him � quite literally, after she knocked him off his feet � out of the room.

Draco could only stare as George gave him a huge grin and a thumbs up.

�...Father, I must say I would recommend we adjourn to the gardens, at this point.� The group all looked rather eager to agree, and they rushed outside � just watching Fred, who was still going berserk in the sitting room.

�Now, on to the plans for this evening.� Narcissa beamed, only to be cut off as the screams Fred had been attempting finally found voice. He carried on for another minute, then joined them in the garden to sit looking quite dignified, beside his wife. �...are you quite well, my dear boy?�

�Whyever would you ask such a thing, Lady Malfoy?� He replied cheekily, a grin on his face. �Never felt better in my life. Nothing like a good silencing spell to let one's hair down.�

�...I should be grateful for it, shouldn't I?� Draco began to laugh. His father had grown so fond of these two lunatics that he was certain hell had frozen over. The boys had become like nephews to Lucius in a short time � more for their business sense than their insanity, of course.

�Indeed, my good fellow, indeed. There were words in that in the beginning of the rampage.� Fred's comment had his wife laughing, and shaking her head as she leaned into him. �...so, about the party, Lady Malfoy?�

�Oh!� She blinked out of her stunned gazing at the boy, nodding sharply. �Yes, of course. The women will have to begin getting ready shortly after lunch, and that will leave you lot to finish supervising the work. The house elves are very excited today � after all, it isn't often they get to prepare an engagement party, much less for their beloved 'little master'.�

�Unfortunately, you'll have to get ready as soon as they get done, and be downstairs with me to begin receiving guests � namely our family, in order to keep them from hunting Draco or Narcissa and Lucius down and embarrassing us.� Ginny informed her brother, looking apologetically to the three Malfoys. �Harry is back home trying to talk sense into them, and knowing Mum, she's likely threatening anyone who upsets Hermione tonight � she has a way of making them fully aware that she can and will hex them to hell in a hand basket.�

�I see you've picked up one of Eriko's choice sayings...� Hermione murmured with a little smile, as Ginny realized what she had said and blushed. �...at any rate, I'm hoping you and George can run damage control, Fred. I know you're good at reading people, the both of you, and I'm counting on you to help keep this from being plastered in the front pages of the crime section of the Daily Prophet.�

�So, this gives me full rights to leave Ron hogtied in some random area of the manor?� Fred looked very enthused, but as his wife shot him a glare, he began rapidly backtracking. �Joking, dearest, only joking...don't set Eriko on me, she'll be in a wonderful mood when they get around to rejoining us, and you'd hate to spoil that, now wouldn't you?�
