Harry woke to sounds outside his door. He listened closely, and realised it was Fred and George. He jumped out of bed, raced to the door and threw it open in a hurry. “Whatever you were planning to come in and do, don't.” He said. “There are Blood Wards on this room. If you come in, it will hurt.”

Fred and George pouted. “That's no fun.” George said.

“How are we supposed to pull off your birthday prank?” Fred asked.

Harry gave them both a flat stare. “Wait until I get down to breakfast, set something up outside my door, or—here's a novel concept—decide that Ron's actions were prank enough to last a lifetime!” Harry snapped.

“Never.” George said.

“This will be something new, something we've thoroughly tested and have an antidote for. We promise.” Fred told him.

Harry sighed and shook his head. “Well, now that I’m up, I’m going to go take a shower. You can set up whatever you want outside of the door, and I'll act suitably surprised when I come out and set it off.” He told them.

Fred and George beamed at him. “Deal.” They said together.

“And no, I will not key you into the Blood Wards. I can, but I don’t particularly want you two to have access to my bedroom any time you want.” Harry added, before shutting the door in their face.

“Boo!” Fred shouted. “You're no fun!”

Harry smiled and shook his head, walking into his bathroom.

If the twins were already here, it stood to reason that so was Draco, so he had half an hour at maximum before Severus would come in to make sure he was up. That was enough time to be dressed if he only took a short shower.

He was done and dressed before Severus had to come get him. He opened his door—and nothing happened. So he walked out into the hallway. Still nothing.

“What is supposed to—oh.” He said as bubbles came out of his mouth with each word.

The end of the hallway started snickering, and both the twins dropped the disillusionment charms they had been under.

“Ha, ha, very funny. When is this supposed to wear off?” He asked, bubbles still emerging.

George paused to wheeze, then replied, “It'll wear off in an hour. Or, if your Dad threatens bodily harm—without being told to—we have an antidote.”

Harry sighed, and a stream of bubbles blew from his mouth. “Fine. Let's get to breakfast.” He said.

They went into the formal dining room and Harry took his usual seat, Tom already sitting in the seat beside him. He smiled at him. “Hi.” He said weakly. A bubble floated into Tom's face.

Tom looked at it in interest. “I’m assuming this is courtesy of your twins?” He asked, Fred and George laughing as his eyes followed the bubble.

Hermione and Neville laughed.

Luna was watching with a smile on her face. “It's harmless.” She said.

Harry nodded. “Yes, it was them.” He answered.

“Can they remove it?” Severus asked, eye twitching.

“Under the right circumstances.” Harry answered.

Severus sighed. “What circumstances would those be?” He asked tensely.

Fred and George grinned widely. Draco, who was seated between them, covered his face with one hand and shook his head.

“We'll never tell!” Fred declared.

The eye twitched again. “Maiming might be in order.” Severus drawled.

George pulled a potions vial out of his pocket and held it out to Harry.

Harry reached for it—and George pulled it out of reach. “Oops! Try again!” He held it out again.

Harry made another grab—and George pulled it out of reach again.

Harry growled—and Tom pulled his wand out.

George paled and handed the vial over. “Sorry! Was just playing!” He said.

Tom sighed. “Don’t torment him on his birthday.” He told them.

“Won’t happen again, Your Lordliness!” Fred said.

“Yeah, pranks are over for now, Lord Snakey!” George agreed.

Tom sighed and shook his head. “Lord Snakey?” He asked.

Harry laughed—and produced a stream of bubbles.

“Take the damn potion, Harrison.” Severus said.

Harry drank it down and sighed. No bubbles. “Thank the gods!” He cheered.

Lucius and Narcissa were watching impassively.

Lucius leaned down and said in an undertone to Narcissa, “I’m not so sure I want our son marrying into that.”

Narcissa chuckled lightly. “Dear, that was genius spellwork! Those boys are a bit wild, yes, but they are smart.” She told him. “If they turn out to have good business acumen, they could go far. We'll wait and see for now.” She said evenly.

Lucius hummed and leaned back.

“Are we ready to behave properly now?” Severus asked.

“Yes, Sir.” Feed and George answered together.

“Good.”

He called for Tissy and she proudly brought out the waffles Harry had requested for his birthday breakfast.

The twins smiled widely.

“Harry, you are the best!” George said.

Fred nodded. “Whatever made you want these for breakfast, keep it up for the next several years.” He agreed.

Harry just smiled and began eating.

*****

By the time dinner rolled around, Sirius and Remus had joined them and Harry was giddy, practically bouncing in his seat. He’d spent the day with his friends, teaching them some of the Dark Arts he was using frequently, as well as a few of the more painful ones for Hermione, and had spent the rest of the time discussing what it was like to be dating a Dark Lord and have Severus as his father.

Fred and George seemed the most interested about those two things. Harry was sure they were trying to figure out how much they could get away with while Severus was there.

Eventually, dinner was finished and there was no more time to delay. Harry eyed the gifts that had made their way to the table throughout the day. “Presents now?” He asked.

Severus laughed. “Yes. Presents now.” He said.

Harry cheered. “Which one first?” He asked everyone.

“Ours!” Fred declared, digging one out and handing it over.

Harry opened it and found two bags; one of normal sweets like fizzing Whizbees and Honeydukes finest, and another, smaller bag labelled “Warning: Experimental.”

“There’s some skiving snack boxes in there, and some daydream charms. They’ve been tested on us and work, but we haven’t tested them on anyone else. We need to make sure they’re safe for underage students, too.” George explained.

Harry nodded. “I’ll try them out later. Thanks, guys.”

Fred grinned. “Anytime. We need people to test our products, and who better than the brother that gave us our first major pay-out?” He asked rhetorically.

Harry smiled and shook his head.

Draco handed his over. “This one is more for training purposes, but you might have gotten rusty.” He said.

Harry opened it to find a practice snitch. “You really want me to get even better?” He asked.

Draco sneered. “I’ll beat you someday. Besides, this one learns from you.” He said. “It’ll give you a challenge every time.”

Harry nodded. “Well, thanks. Although you might regret it eventually.”

“Also, you have a standing invitation to come over and use our pitch whenever you want to. To practice.” He added.

Harry grinned. “Awesome! I’ll keep that in mind!”

Hermione handed hers over next. It was a book.

Harry opened it to find “Dark Arts and their Effects.” He blinked. “So you’re encouraging this?” He asked her, amused.

Hermione flushed. “I figured if you were going to learn them anyway, why shouldn’t I help out?” She asked irritably.

Harry laughed. “Well, thank you. I’m sure it’ll come in handy.” He said.

Neville handed over one. Harry smiled and handed a present over to him, too.

Neville took it, flushing, and they opened their presents together.

Harry’s was a charm with a heart on it. “What’s this?” He asked.

Neville flushed. “I got one for everybody. Protection from love potions.” He said.

Harry’s eyes widened. “Thanks, Nev. That’s really useful.”

Neville’s gift was a packet of seeds. “Those are special roses. They’ll bloom whatever colour you want most when you plant them, so keep different colours in mind as you plant, or plant them on different days, and you should get different colours.” Harry explained.

“Neat.” Neville said, interested.

Remus and Sirius had both gotten correspondence books that paired with their gifts to Harry and wanted to join the Hopefuls. Lucius and Narcissa had gotten him a pensieve and Severus had brewed Memoria Spectare to go with it, so it would be ready to use as soon as he got it set up and added the potion.

Tom gave him the Slytherin promise ring. “This isn’t a proposal, it’s a promise that you will be faithful to me.” He said.

Harry smiled and slipped it on. “I would never leave you for someone else.”

Then there was cake and ice cream for dessert.

All in all, it was his best birthday yet.
