{Dedicated to _sans_the_skeleton__  thank you for all of the wonderful, heartfelt comments. They've meant so much to me as a writer and inspire me to keep sharing my ideas}

With the way Harry was woken up, he was almost certain there was an earthquake or some kind of natural disaster with the sheer force he was being shaken with.

"Potter get your lazy arse up! It's Christmas and we have a lot to do!"

"Maybe I would've been more well rested if you kept that pretty mouth of yours to yourself hmm?"

"Well excuse me for wanting to celebrate with my boyfriend", he emphasized with a huff.

Rolling his eyes at Draco's dramatics, he climbed out of bed and stretched.

"No good morning then? You're horrible."

"I didn't get a good morning either. All I got was Hurricane Draco disturbing my beauty sleep."

"You're pretty enough. Come on,"

Harry let himself be dragged into the bathroom where he was released to brush his teeth and wash his face. He had just finished when Draco pushed him back into the counter and captured his lips in a sweet kiss.

"Happy Christmas darling."

"Happy Christmas my love."

"Do you know how hard it's going to be to not kiss you in front of everybody?"

"Believe me, I do. Have you seen yourself?"

"I am pretty attractive aren't I?", Draco asked, pulling a face in the mirror.

"Come on, let's go greet your mother before you start kissing your reflection."

"I have you to do that for me."

"I fear I've created a monster."

"Who you claimed for forever. Don't forget that part, it's very important."

"Forever", Harry agreed with a kiss.

The men walked downstairs holding hands, and greeted Narcissa in the kitchen, who had made breakfast.

"Happy Christmas Narcissa. You didn't have to make breakfast, but thank you."

"It's the least that I could do for you allowing me into your home."

Draco was extra affectionate this morning to make up for what he would be missing later. Harry would be lying if he said he wasn't enjoying it. As they ate, Draco was talking animatedly. As soon as they finished, Draco ran into the living room and dropped next to the tree.

"Harry, you're so slow, come on!"

"It's a good thing you were also a seeker so you can keep up with this one", Narcissa whispered, chuckling quietly.

"He's not usually like this. Dray really missed you."

"Stop talking about me, and come talk to me!"

"I'm going to buy a drama queen shirt for you if you don't relax."

Rolling his eyes, Draco pulled Harry down next to him, so quickly that he was almost sitting on top of Draco.

"Do you need a calming draught my love?"

"No, I quite enjoy being happy and excited thank you very much darling. You can have the first present, from me."

In all of the excitement yesterday, Draco had never given Harry his early gift.

As Harry unwrapped the small box, he raised an eyebrow.
