Harry's POV:

"Fantastic beasts and where to find them," Hermione calls as Lucius stands at the front moving his hands around in an attempt to play wizarding book charades. It is a much harder game when you don't have muggle films included.
"Tom riddles diary," Ginny slurs slightly tipsy from the wine at Christmas dinner and glaring at Lucius.
"Ugh this is a ridiculous game, clearly only designed to make the players look like fools. I don't even know what this is," he sulks throwing the piece of paper back into the hat.
"Jurassic park? What is that? A book? A muggle thing? A prehistoric landscape?"
"Oh it's a muggle book about dinosaurs, it's a film also. That was my one, I made the Weasleys watch it over summer so I thought it might be understood," Hermione says quietly making Lucius sigh and sit back on the sofa.
"I will have to read this dinosaur book," he grumbles.
"Why don't we play a more wizard friendly game," narcissa suggests and I nod going to some cupboards to retrieve some board games.
An hour later, it is only Lucius, Draco, Ron and Ginny left in the game of monopoly, many of them gave up when Lucius bankrupted them.
"260 gallons, Ginevra for landing on my estate."
"But i only have, 30 left," she pouts.
"Well this is something you should have considered before making your excursion to my property," he says smugly taking over her remaining money as she sits back out of the game.
Ron is soon out leaving just Lucius and Draco.
"Come on now boys let's call it a draw you both have significant funds and property no one is going to win for ages," narcissa says using her wand to pack the board away.
"I would have won, father makes poor investments," Draco sniggers to me and I can't help but smile about how savvy they both are with business even if it is just in a board game.
"I know my darling, you definitely would have won," I say kissing his cheek and noticing Narcissa saying a similar thing to Lucius.
"Ooo let's play this," Ron says coming back from the table of snacks still wearing his Christmas paper hat, with a handful of crisps and a Mr and Mrs game.
"Ooo yes, we are mostly couples and Ginny, George, Percy and Charlie can all partner up to answer some of the questions that aren't specific to romantic relationships, or they can ask questions and keep score," Hermione says.
"Mum, dad you go first then we can see who the ultimate couple is," Ginny laughs as the take a seat facing away from each other.
"Release an A in the air above your heads for Arthur and an M for Molly," Percy says reading the instructions and they ready their wands.
"Let's do 20 questions each, I'll read," Ginny says.
"Okay who cooks more," they both release an M, "match."
"Who is more organised," Molly releases an M but Arthur releases an A so they are not given a point for that one.  "No match," George says taking his job at calling out the answers very seriously.
"Who is more patient," they both release an A
"Match,"
20 questions later they have 16 matches and 16 points.
Bill and Fleur only get 12 points mostly due to the fact that Fleur says she is better at pretty much everything apart from being the most stubborn, something that makes Draco laugh hysterically.
"Who is more intelligent?" Ginny asks Ron and Hermione, Ron immediately shoots up a H and Hermione blushes reluctantly doing the same. "Match," George says and Ron pretends to look shocked.
"Who initiates intimacy more?" Ginny reads with a frown and they both release an R making Ginny pretend to gag. "Match."
"Who is more attractive?" Ron releases a H and Hermione an R. "No match," George says and Hermione awwws.
That's all very sweet I think to myself but you have to anticipate what the other person would say to get a point. I share my opinion with Draco who nods. He doesn't like to lose.
"Wow you got 16 like mum and dad and they have been married for years," ginny laughs as Lucius and Narcissa face away from each other for their turn.
"Who is more organised?" They both release an N
"Match."
"Who is more likely to initiate intimacy?" They both release an L and Lucius smirks making Draco roll his eyes. "Match."
"Who is more likely to get arrested?" Lucius chuckles loudly as they both release an L again. "Match."
"How could you dear? Why would you think such a thing," Lucius teases making her smile but roll her eyes.
"Who said I love you first," they both release an L again which is sweet and surprising. "Match."
A few questions later and Ginny is tallying up the scores.
"Wow 17 that's hard to beat, Draco and Harry," she says but I nod at Draco as if to say easy and he smiles kissing me before turning away.
"Who initiates intimacy more?" I think for a second, it's fairly equal but I may initiate it more but Draco wears things that might count as initiation.
"Come on Harry, Draco already answered," Ginny laughs.
I release a H in to the air making Narcissa give me a look somewhere between a smirk and a scold,
"Match."
"What I am wearing at the time does not count as initiating," Draco says as if he can read my mind. I smile turning round to kiss his cheek.
"Sorry love, I was just thinking it," I laugh and he laughs back as we turn back around for the next question.
"Who said I love you first?" I realise a H and Draco obviously does the same as it is a match.
"Who is more dramatic?" Ginny sniggers and I shoot a D into the air after a few seconds it is called as a match. "I'm not that dramatic," Draco grumbles and I can't help but smirk, he definitely is.
