Disclaimer: I have said it before, but I’ll say it again: I don’t own anything you recognise and I’m not making any profit from this.

'Buffy the Vampire Slayer' belongs to Joss Whedon and other writers, directors, producers etc. And I’ll let you in on a little secret, I’m not J.K. Rowling. I have never been nor will I ever be a blonde, British lady. This means I don’t own 'Harry Potter'. Because if I did, I would have done things differently.

And I own neither 'Totally Spies' nor the 'Fast and Furious' franchise. The first is produced by the French company Marathon Production. The latter is owned by a lot of different people. Amongst those people I include: Rob Cohen, Justin Lin and Universal Pictures.

Pairing: None as of yet, but coming soon. And you know it’s going to be slash.

Crossover: BtVS/Harry Potter

Rating: FR15 again

Prequel/Sequel: Part 2 of the 'Love is ...' series.

Spoilers? Well, Fred didn’t die. George is gorgeous as ever. And Xander is a Council representative with two eyes. It’s mostly my own crossover universe.

Summary: New inventions can lead to “Love”. Part 2. Slash pairing coming soon.

What happened before? Xander stepped foot in The Store and met the twins.



Story: Love is ... being curious.

The flat above the store

“Do you have anything non alcoholic? Drinks of the alcoholic persuasion and the Xan-man don’t mix,” Xander asked the twin in the kitchen. He wasn’t sure which one it was. By paying attention, he would be able to tell them apart soon enough.

“Sure. We have water or ... what about a coke?” George offered.

“You have soft drinks? Isn’t that a muggle thing?” Xander asked. “But to answer, I’d love a coke.”

“We love muggle things. Especially food and drinks. And toys. We mustn’t forget the toys. You could say that we’re ... curious. Aren’t we, Fred?” George turned around to look at his twin. Who for no apparent reason had decided to change his shirt.

“Sure thing, George. We’re curious. How do you feel about curious guys, Xander?” Fred asked their guest. Who was staring at the chest revealed.

“Huh, what? What did you say?” Xander was at a loss for words. One word resonated, gorgeous. Two gorgeous men, because, hey, twins. When was the last time he had had a date. Why was he thinking about dates? He was here for business, not pleasure. But what pleasure that would be. No, he was here ...

“On business!”

“Huh?” George and Fred looked at each other, shrugged and looked back at Xander.

“I’m here on business. Let’s get back to business. What am I supposed to take with me?”

Xander could feel the blush staining his cheeks, but at least he had changed the subject.

“Ah yes, the thing you’re here for. It’s genius, isn’t it, Fred?” George could barely contain his glee.

“It is genius, George. Now, don’t keep the good man waiting. You do want to know what it is, don’t you, Xander?” Fred asked, while still looking at his brother. A quick glance showed him that Xander was indeed waiting, not very patiently, for the surprise to be revealed.

“I do want to know what it is. Nobody has told me anything about it,” Xander confessed.

George and Fred heaved it, whatever it was, on the table, which buckled a bit under the weight. Seeing that, Xander wisely decided to push his chair a bit further away from the table.

“Tell me what you see,” George practically demanded. Fred threw a proud look in his brother’s direction. His twin could be such a demanding little thing sometimes.

Xander obediently looked at the thing on the table and blinked in confusion. Because the thing on the table looked suspiciously like a ...

“Suitcase?”

“Yes, it’s a suitcase. Nobody would suspect a suitcase. But you know that this one doesn’t hold clothes. We sell pranks, not clothes. This was actually inspired by Totally Spies, the muggle cartoon. Think Charlie’s Angels, but animated. Every episode Alex, Sam and Clover would get these gadgets to help them fight crime. That’s what we did, only we gave our gadgets magical proportions and we adapted them to fit the Council’s needs.” George was so proud of their creations.

“We have a scanner watch. This can be used to identify any demon that has a written account. It uses any and all resources available and it can either run on batteries or on magic. If a magical person uses this, it is automatically recharged, because it reads the person who carries it. We had to invent an entirely new spell to be able to do this,” George explained. “But it was totally worth it.”

“This is a pair of sunglasses. It has a spell woven into the design which helps the person wearing this to spy without being seen. Again, both batteries or magic can be used to recharge this. This is especially useful if you’re a normal person with no way to hide yourself, because everything is hidden with this thing. Smell, footsteps, breathing, ...” Fred said next, holding the sunglasses up.

“This looks like a powder compact, but is actually a phone. Untraceable and no money needed. Mister Giles insisted on that for some reason. It can be used anywhere, because of the spell on it. Again we had to invent this spell, because no such thing existed before. Mostly useful for girls, of course, because of the design. And the nice pink finish,” George said with a wink. “But I think we could be persuaded to make something like this for the men in the Council.”

“And last, but certainly not least if we have our way, we have a hair dryer look-a-like. This thing has several weather spells on it. Examples are heavy rain, bright sunlight and lightning.” Fred had to smile at the look of awe on Xander’s face. He looked in his brother’s direction and saw that George was enjoying the look as well.

Xander looked in total awe at what the twins were showing him. This was unbelievable. Ellison and Bell had nothing on the Weasley twins. Perhaps he could help them?

“I have a few ideas. Interested?” Xander asked both. Seeing their faces light up, he guesses they were interested in what he had to say.

“Have you ever heard of the muggle films called ‘The Fast and The Furious’ and the other films in that particular franchise?” Xander asked.

“We haven’t.”

“It’s all about cars. Modifying cars to the point that they can win street races in them. And that’s where my idea comes in,” Xander explained. “But before I explain, do you know anything about muggle’s cars?”

“We do. We’ve been tinkering away at our dad's car for months now. We really want to be able to drive somewhere the normal muggle way. Well, normal for us. We have the magical touch, as they say,” Fred said. George snickered at that. Fred really had a way with words sometimes.

“Does this mean you won’t mind helping me slayer-proof a few cars?” Xander asked with a slight smile on his face. “I could really use your kind of magical touch.”

Fred and George had to snicker when they heard Xander talk about their magical touch. Putting their arms around Xander, they said as one. “You only had to ask, if you wanted our magical touch. You didn’t need to bring up cars for that.”

Xander blushed. He quickly got out of their embrace and took a step towards the suitcase. “Guys, I really appreciate this. Guess I’ll be off then. Let me get the suitcase. Giles is going to jump up and down with joy when he sees this stuff. In really dignified way, of course.”

“Before I leave, want to set a date for the thing with the cars? You can come to my place. I have a huge garage next to the house. With a bit of luck, we’ll be able to find everything we need there. I’ll take care of the cars, you bring everything you might need to do the magical parts,” Xander offered.

“Sure, let us write down the address and the date. What about Saturday, July 3rd? Say 3 pm? That’s the only day we’re entirely free,” George asked after a quick look on the calendar hanging in the kitchen.

“July 3rd, 3 pm is fine. Here’s my address. I’ll see you then.” Xander said.

“Wait! How about we go out next Saturday, get to know each other?” Fred asked before Xander could leave. Seeing the look on his brother’s face, he guessed he agreed with his plan to stop Xander from getting away for three weeks.

“Sounds good. What time and where?”

“Just come to The Store, around 7 pm.”

“Okay, I’ll see you then.”

“See you next Saturday,” George replied.

“Bye, Xander. Next Saturday, it’s a date!” The look on Xander’s face at that last parting shot from Fred was an amazing thing to watch.


End part two.


A/N: I love the fact that the first part got so many hits. Well, I’m sure some people clicked it and stopped reading before they reached the end of the story. But, hey, at least a few people must have actually read my story all the way through.

And thank you to the first reviewers ever of mine. I now understand why some authors hold chapters hostage. Reviews are simply addictive. So if you ever feel the need to leave a nice message, don’t let me stop you. ;-) Flames will be used to heat up my room! Just so you know.

And lastly, I’m sorry about the bit of, to my feeling anyway, false advertising at first. I hadn’t yet made it clear that this series was going to end with a slash pairing. The reason I hadn’t noticed is because of the fact that the teasing going on between these three lovely men is something I consider normal. Teasing friends and family is such fun. :D
