Harry took a deep breath as he and George stood on the door step to the Burrow. George smiled at him and rubbed his back. "Ready?"

"As I ever can be." He put his hand on his stomach. "How do you think they'll take it?"

George shrugged. "They might try to pass it off as a prank."

Harry snorted. "As if either of us would ever joke about this." He narrowed at his eyes as George remained suspiciously silent. "George? Don't tell me that you and Fred--"

Fred appeared suddenly behind them. "Wow, glad I didn't have to walk through all that snow. Harry, are you all right? No slips?"

Harry shook his head. "No, but George was just about tell me--"

"How wonderful he looks," George said suddenly. "Doesn't he, Fred?"

Fred looked between them, wondering what was going on. "Of course he does." He nodded at the front door. "Are we going in or not? Harry shouldn't be standing out here in the cold."

George grinned. "Right you are. Once more into battle, eh?" He opened the door, going in first.

Harry glared at George's back as he followed, wondering if maybe he should try instead to get the story out of Fred. Molly welcomed George with a huge hug and Harry cringed around his stomach, knowing that that big of a hug wouldn't hurt. Still, he worried.

"And Harry! So good to see you!" She pulled him in tight and when she pulled back, raised an eyebrow. "Good to see you, dear."

Harry gulped, wondering if she had guessed. He let out a breath he didn't know he was holding when she moved to hug Fred. "Go along to the kitchen. Arthur is in there, serving drinks."

Harry gratefully went and smiled at the group already gathered. He got a glass of juice, afraid that the eggnog was spiked already. He walked over to Ron and Hermione who were passing around photos of their daughter, Rose, who was currently playing hide and seek with her favorite uncle, Charlie.

"Hey, guys," Harry said.

"Harry!" Ron pulled Harry in for a hug and shared a look with Hermione. "Er, putting on some weight there. Thought the twins would keep you in top shape with all the sex they claim you're having."

Harry blushed, remembering that "all the sex" was what exactly caused his current situation.

"Ron!" Hermione chastised.

Harry cleared his throat. "Oh, there's Bill. Need to ask him a question." He smiled at Bill and smoothly joined the conversation.

Lunch was soon served and Harry frowned when dishes were continuously taken from his hands when he'd only taken a spoonful. "Got to keep in shape," Fleur said to Harry when she'd taken a dish from him. "Aurors need to be."

Harry groaned, knowing that also needed to be addressed. As lunch went on, Fred kept moving around and George ate a slower pace until it seemed that he wasn't eating at all. Harry knew his husbands were nervous, but he knew that eventually someone was going to notice that they weren't their usual cheerful selves.

Finally, the meal was over and they went back into the living room to exchange gifts. The twins did not volunteer to hand them out, drawing several curious looks. Harry nudged them both, hoping one of them would get the hint. They looked at him and shook their heads.

Harry sighed, wondering where their usual courage had gone. He rubbed his stomach, hoping that the upset in there would calm down so he could enjoy the holiday.

"So, Harry," Charlie said later after gifts were opened and everyone had started dozing. "Anything you want to tell us?" His grin said he'd figured it out and Molly looked ready to jump out of her seat.

Harry blushed and looked at his husbands. "Uh, actually--"

"There is," George said. He put down his wine glass and rubbed his hands on his pants. "Several things, actually."

"First is that, well, we're married," Fred said. "All three of us--George, Harry, and me."

Harry groaned and wished the couch would swallow him whole. George sighed. "We figured it was only right since Harry is pregnant."

Complete and utter silence. Harry dared to open his eyes and closed them again when he saw the range of emotions across everyone's face. "It's twins actually," Fred said. "Surprisingly, one's mine and the other is George's."

"But both of them are ours," George said. He put his hand over Harry's. "We're going to raise them as ours. Our family."

Harry couldn't help but smile at George for that. "He's right. Whatever happens, the babies belong to both of them."

Molly grinned. "Wonderful!" She turned to Arthur. "We're going to be grandparents again!"

Arthur nodded and raised his glass at them. "Congratulations."

Bill chuckled. "Not a joke this time, huh?"

Harry turned to glare at his husbands who gulped. Fred jumped up. "The healer said that Harry should get plenty of rest, so we should be off," Fred said. "It's been a long day. Right, Harry?"

Harry nodded and stood up quickly. "Yes, yes it has. Need to rest."

Molly stood up and started into the kitchen. "Lots of it if he's carrying twins. Let me just put together some left overs for you."

Arthur helped them gather up their presents. "Don't overwork him, boys." He looked around at everyone. "Well?"

Charlie raised his glass. "Congratulations!"

Ron raised his, looking a bit green, and took a large gulp. Hermione rolled her eyes. "It's a shock, but I'm happy for you, Harry."

Everyone soon followed, offered bits of advice all around. Molly came back in with a huge basket of food which Harry took, grateful she'd cast a feather light charm on it. "Thanks."

"And eat plenty of it," Molly said. "Congratulations."

They thanked her and everyone else as they left. Once outside, George let out a breath. "Whew. Glad that's over with, eh?"

Harry nodded. "So what exactly did you two do--enlarge on of your stomachs so that you looked pregnant?"

Fred grinned. "Naturally. Made Mum faint. Absolutely brilliant."

George nodded. "Completely." He put his hand on Harry's stomach, still in awe. "But not this time. Real, now. Children. Ours."

Their children. Harry grinned. "Can you imagine McGonagal's face when she hears?"

"Or Snape's!" Fred and George said.

They laughed as they went home, coming up with all the many ways they could teach their children to annoy their former Potions professor.

If they haven't already retired when the kids get to Hogwarts, I'm sure they will after.
Lovely gentle story, always have a fondness for twins/Harry :)
