Chapter 2
“I can’t believe I let you convince me to come here”, Draco grumbled as they walked towards the twins shop.
“You know you love coming here just as much as I do”
“Pffff. No I don’t”
“yes, you find the twins, and I quote “magnificently, terrifyingly wonderful””
“I never said any of those words”
Harry sighed “yes you did Draco, stop trying to deny it everyone knows you love their antics”
“I will deny that until the day I die”
Harry rolled his eyes a small smile tugging on his lip. He leaned over and slipped his hand in the back pocket of Draco’s pants and Draco wrapped his arm around Harry’s shoulders.
“Then I guess” Harry sighed “you’ll be denying it forever”
“I guess I will” Draco smirked.

The Weasleys shop was full of people trying to buy stuff while simultaneously trying to dodge flying, exploding, and spraying pranks that shot out in every direction.
As Harry and Draco maneuvered their way to the back of the shop Harry noticed that the pranks that normally attacked everyone they were noticeably avoiding hitting Draco at all, ‘they must truly be terrified of him know’ Harry thought, internally laughing at the fact that Fred and George Weasley were afraid of Draco Malfoy. ‘Though to be fair they probably should be considering what happened last time’.
Before Harry could get lost in his thoughts they had reached the back of the shop where Fred and George were seated watching all their pranks exploding around customers.
“Well” said George, jumping to his feet from where he sat on the floor “Look who it is Freddie”
“I know Georgie”
“It’s Harry-“
“And Draco-“
“What a wonderful-“
“Surprise this is.”
“What can we-“
“Do for you on this-“
“Fine day”
Draco’s lip curled up in a half smile at the twins ridiculous way of speaking, “we need a birthday gift for Pansy and she loves Pygmy Puffs and you have a load of them”
The twins exchanged glances
“Very well-”, Fred started
“How much will you be paying”, George finished
“As much as any other customer would” Harry jumped in, knowing full well the twins would try and give them a “family discount” as they called it, which was something Harry didn’t quite want to do.
Fred pouted, “but the-“
“Family discount-“
“Still applies-“
“To both of you-“
“So we can’t just-“
“Take all your money”
Draco laughed “Harry just doesn’t want any special treatment, we’ll pay whatever you want us to”
Fred and George exchange another look before replying, “very well-” Fred started
“That’ll be five galleons then-“
“For however many-“
“You buy”
Draco nodded, “seems like we have a deal then”
“Seems we do” both said in unison, smiling brightly.

Once Harry and Draco had picked up the Pygmy Puffs and left the twins shop Harry started to mutter about the special treatment, “ why do we need a discount when we’re just normal customers?”
Draco sighed, “because love we’re family, and according to them family gets a special discount. And don’t try and argue about this with me because we both know that to the twins we’re family and there was no way they’d let us pay the actual price, especially since it’s thanks to you they got the shop in the first place.”
Harry dropped his complaining after that because he understood what Draco was saying, so he simply slipped his hand into the back pocket of Draco’s pants and let the blond wrap and arm around his shoulders as they continued on their shopping trip.
