*Y/N's POV*
After receiving our joyous, yet nerve-wracking news, Fred and I already knew it was going to be hard to get our friends to stay quiet about it all. We still had to tell Fred's parents, Bill and Fleur, Charlie, Percy, Ron, Harry, Hermione, Andromeda, many other close friends, and family. As much as I hated the idea, we still had my family to worry about as well.
"Darling, for the last time, it is up to you on whether or not you want to invite them to the dinner," I trailed behind Fred as he stocked shelves while I kept inventory on a clipboard.
"I know, you've said that. But this is your baby too, you know you get a say right?" I argued.
"Yes, but they're technically your family. I technically invited my family already."
"That is not fair!" I huffed, "Your side of the family is easy, mine is a homicidal pain in the ass. Besides I still haven't confronted my aunt about the whole 'lying about me possibly being infertile to keep me miserable because you can't stand to see me happy' thing. But I wouldn't even know how to go about that without spoiling the surprise."
"Alright then," Fred set down his box and crossed his arms, "We do this my way then. I say invite them but for the sole reason that when we make our announcement, we can both enjoy rubbing it into their smug, pompous faces."
I couldn't help but laugh, "Always the cheeky route with you, innit?"
"Always," Fred winked, "Now, let's finish up this inventory so that we can help those blabbermouths with the decorations before they all explode."
Fred and I finished the inventory, ready to roll up our sleeves again and tackle party decorating. But when we got up into the flat, everything seemed like it had been set up hours ago, not a single thing out of place.
"What do you think?" Angelina asked from the sofa, where the other secret-holders sat.
"You guys didn't have to do all this yourself," I smiled thankfully, "Fred and I were more than ready to help."
"Even after doing all that inventory?" Lee and George chuckled.
Fred's eyes narrowed, "What the hell are you two sods giggling about?"
George let out a soft laugh, "Relax, brother. We just told you two to do the inventory while we set up everything. Lee and I did the inventory last night."
"So, I just did all that restocking for nothing!" Fred groaned.
"Well no, you did the restocking but counting it and logging everything was already done. You just did the 'heavy work', I suppose," George smirked.
"You're lucky you guys did such a great job decorating or I would've hexed you both by now," I laughed as Lee and George stopped their laughing at my comical threat.
"We were gonna go with pink and blue streamers but we felt that that would be a bit too obvious, you know?" Angelina explained.
"No shit," Lee muttered, earning him a smack upside the head from Blaise, "What was that for?!"
"Don't be rude," Blaise quipped.
"Thanks, Zabini. Thought I'd have to do that myself," Angelina and I chuckled.
"So, what time is everyone supposed to be coming over?" I asked.
"Well Mum and everybody should be here any minute. Y/N, your aunt and cousin said they might be a few minutes late," Ginny began to explain.
