Love This Christmas

It was the next morning and Draco's eyes fluttered open, and he turned around to face the window, as Narcissa came into his bedroom. He looked at his door as his mum came in, and walked up to her son, sitting on the bed, "Good morning, sweetheart." "Good morning, mum." "I gave the college a ring this morning, and they have unenrolled you from the college, but me and your father have to take in your lanyard to the college." Draco got up, walking up to his jacket, getting it out, taking his pin off, handing it over.

Narcissa took it out of his hand, "How will you finish your education?" "Don't want to finish it, it's pointless anyways." "Enough of that. Your education is worth it, honey. If you want to go straight into working, go ahead. I was looking at a few jobs last night and I saw a bartender come up." "Can you email it to me?" "Of course I can." Narcissa got it up on her phone, and emailed it to Draco. Draco looked at his mum, "What's wrong?" "I've got a tummy ache," "Okay, I'm going to give work a ring and let my boss known I'm not feeling very well." "Okay, I'm going to try and go to the toilet." "Go ahead my love, do you want anything?" "No." Draco walked in the bathroom.

5 minutes later, he came out of the bathroom and in the bedroom, "Did you go?" "No. My stomach feels horrible, it feels like someone's pushing on my stomach and I am so bloated," "Lie down." Draco got under his covers and laid down. Narcissa sat on the bed with her son, and placed one hand on his stomach, feeling around as she got to his left side as he moved into a ball, "Honey, I think it's your appendix, but you got them removed when you were 10 though." "I know. I don't know what it is." "Did you eat last night?" "I ate a little bit." "Okay, baby. Why did you not want to eat a lot?" "Felt insecure. Also didn't feel hungry." "Okay, honey." Narcissa sat on the bed with her son as Lucius came upstairs "Morning, darling." "Morning dad." "Mum told me you weren't feeling that great." "Yeah, I've got a bit of an iffy stomach." "Do you need anything?" "Maybe two Imodium capsules with some water and toast." "Of course, let me get that for you. Narcissa, get to work. I'll look after him. Draco, who do you want to look after you today?" "I don't mind, I would mind if you stay, dad." "Of course, honey." Draco looked at his phone, and saw a message from his abusive ex girlfriend.

He looked away, swiping away the message. Lucius walked over, sitting on the bed, "What's wrong?" "My ex girlfriend messaged me." "Louise?" "Yeah, she told me to get my arse to college so she could kiss me in front of my own boyfriend. I'm not going to allow that, because Harry's my boyfriend. I don't want us to drift apart." He talked really fast as Lucius knelt down, holding his hand, stroking his thumb along his son's knuckles "Ignore her. She put you really down. She's not worth your tears." Draco heard his phone buzz, and looked at his phone. 

He saw a message from Harry, and smiled, 'I'm coming to yours at Lunch, and I've got something for you xx' Draco smiled "Did Harry message you?" "Yeah, he's got something for me." "Go and get yourself dressed, honey." "Okay, let me quickly go and wash my hair, and dry it." "Go ahead, sweetheart." Draco got up, walking in the bathroom. He turned the shower hose on, and let it warm up. He got his shampoo which was coconut and lychee. He dipped his head over the bath, running his hand over his blonde hair.

Once he washed and dried his hair, he walked in his bedroom, opening his wardrobe, getting a pair of black skinny trousers, and a white shirt. Draco got a pair of boxers out of his drawer. He walked in the bathroom and got dressed. When he was zipping up his trousers, he looked around for his belt, "Dad?!" "Yeah?" "I left my belt on the bed, can you bring it please?" "Are you decent?" "Yeah." Lucius walked in the bathroom with his son's belt. Draco looped his belt around the loops. He buckled it up, walking in his bedroom "How's your stomach now?" "A little better." "That's good." Draco got a pair of white socks out of his drawer, pulling them on. 

It was later on in the day and Draco was lying in bed back in his pyjamas as Harry came upstairs as Narcissa let him in. Harry walked in the bedroom, and found a letter on the bed. He sat on the bed, and looked at Draco who was lying on the bed. Draco turned around, looking at him, "Harry?" "Hello you." "Hi." Draco picked the letter up, Harry put the gift bag and laid down with Draco, and wrapped an arm around him, "Draco?" "Mmm?" "Can I tell you something?" Draco turned around, as Harry brushed a lock of hair behind his ear, "Yeah, of course." "I know this may sound really early," "What is it?" "I love you." "I love you too." Harry smiled, wrapping an arm around Draco, as Draco wrapped his arms back around him, and placed his head on his chest, tracing small patterns on his chest, as he kept the smile on his face for the rest of the afternoon and for the rest of the day until he went to sleep.
