Draco was immediately suspicious when he woke up to Harry's side of the bed being not only empty, but cold. He never got out of bed for anything.

"Sunshine? Are you home?"

"Dining room Moonbeam!", Harry yelled back.

"What are you- Oh wow."

Before they went to bed, they made sure the dining room was set up and prepared for all of their guests. Harry had clearly gone insane with the cleaning.

"How many rooms have you cleaned?"

"A lot of them?", he responded with a nervous chuckle.

"Why are you so nervous?", Draco asked suspiciously.

"I'm just anxious about having so many people over, is all. I usually never host these things."

"Why are we hosting this?"

"It's a long story."

"I have time", Draco replied with a raised eyebrow.

"Actually, you don't. Shower and get ready."

"Ugh are we going out again?"

"Something like that. Kingsley may also be arriving. You have an hour to get ready."

"Ugh fine."

"I'll have breakfast made by the time you're done."

"You better. I'm also taking your shirt!", Draco yelled over his shoulder.

"I expect nothing more from you."

In reality, Narcissa would be arriving in half an hour. Harry just wanted the magical linkages done before Draco came back down. Satisfied that the house was clean enough, he actually did go off to make breakfast. He had even made sure to dress a little nicer than usual, just to make a bit of a better impression.

When there was a knock on the door, Harry almost jumped out of his skin. The table was set for three, with a nice floral arrangement placed in the center. With a deep breath, he opened the door, and welcomed Kingsley and Narcissa into his home.

Wanting to get back home, Kingsley skipped the pleasantries and performed the necessary magic, and bestowed Narcissa with her wand back. He yelled a "happy Christmas" up the stairs to Draco, and he was off.

"I must say, you've really breathed some much needed life into this old place."

"Draco helped. He's been really good for me."

Her eyes drifted to all of the photos covering the wall.

"So I can see."

"I wanted to ask for your permission to court Draco officially, if you'll allow me?"

"I believe Draco is absolutely smitten with you and if I denied your request he would still go against my wishes. However, I have no intention of doing so. I can tell that you truly love my son, and that he loves you as well, just by the way he looks at you in pictures. I welcome you into our family with open arms Harry. I have never met anyone like you with such a kind and forgiving heart. It has truly been an honor."

With teary eyes, he hugged Narcissa.

"Thank you Narcissa."

"Harry you better have breakfast ready for me!"
