I woke up to a irritating noise pattering at my window. I groaned and looked up to it. It was my families Owl, Lisley (pronounced Lies lee), flying there with three packages held in her talons and two letters held in her beak. I was confused for a second then looked to my alarm clock. Dec. 25th. Christmas... That means I can sleep in right? I drifted off and then jutted up at my realization. It's Christmas! Bloody Hell! Today is Christmas and I'm not even dressed! I opened my window and turned to my closet. I jumped into my closet and pulled out my Christmas outfit. It was a short,white, frilly dress. I slipped my robes over my dress carefully and walked over to Lisley, and relived her of the items. I opened the cards. One was from mom and dad, and the other was from Asher and Kattie, my little brother and sister. I then opened the gifts. One was an infinity scarf, from grandma by the looks of it, another was pepper spray, from Asher and Kattie (oh muggle siblings... I hope they know that this won't help me here) and the last was from mom and dad. It was an empty locket, for me to put pictures of me and my friends in. I threw the pepper spray and scarf in the closet, put the locket in my pocket and wrote thank you notes to everyone with presents for Asher and Kattie, from the wizard world, with Lisley, who took off as soon as I gave her the gifts. Then I walked down stairs. There were so many presents under the tree. Draco, and all the other Slytherin's were already sorting them out. There was a small pile of gifts on the table next to what I assumed to be Draco's big pile of presents (considering Draco was sitting right next to the big pile). I walked out and was dragged to the seat next to Draco, by Draco himself. I looked at the presents.

"We'll go on, open 'em" Draco prompted, nudging me with his elbow. I looked to him confused.

"Those?" I asked pointing at the small pile.

"Yeah, those. They have you name on them" Draco announced, showing me a tag that, indeed, had my name on it. I smiled and grabbed a small box. Then shook it. Draco stopped my hands.

"DON'T DO THAT ITS FRAGILE!" Draco exclaimed. I smirked at him. He cleared his throat. "Probably..." Draco finished, removing his hand from mine. I laughed.

"Probably." I mocked, and opened the box. There inside... Was the sweetest and most thoughtful gift I've ever received. The pan I wanted from the store. I gasped and took it out. I covered my mouth. It was the exact one. "Draco... Did you... Is this... How did...?" I couldn't form a complete sentence. Draco laughed.

"Merry Christmas, Snaproot" he replied, then started ripping open his gifts. I smiled even bigger. Draco Malfoy got me, Corrine Snaproot, a Christmas Pan. I blew into it and smiled even larger. It worked alright. I then did something I never would've expected myself to do. I cast a mistletoe spell right above Draco and tapped his shoulder. I then pointed up words and kissed his cheek.

"Merry Christmas to you, Malfoy" I announced, then continued on with my presents. About three minutes pasted and I looked to Draco again. He was leaning back against the couch, his hand on his cheek, smiling and blushing, while staring up at the mistletoe. I shook my head and continued opening my presents.

"Snaproot just kissed me" Draco whispered. I rolled my eyes. "Snaproot just kissed me" Draco repeated. He slumped down off the couch and laid down on the ground. I shook my head and continued unwrapping my gift. "Snaproot just kissed me. I just received a kiss from Snaproot. And I liked it." Draco announced. I looked at him, and crinkled my nose. Then laid down, so that my head was the only thing close to his head. He looked to me, I could tell he was dazed. He sang in a tune you'd only know if you'd watched pirates of the Caribbean, (to the tune I've got a jar of dirt) "I got a kiss from Snaproot! I got a kiss from Snaproot! I got a kiss from Snaproot!, and guess what I'm gonna do next?"
I rolled my eyes and sat up. Then Draco sat up, took my hand, and kissed it. I blushed. "You're so pretty when you blush, Snaproot" Draco admitted. I blushed even more. "You know, if every time I talked to you, you smiled, I'd never stop talking to you" Draco announced, which coincidentally, made me smile. I withdrew my hand and stared at him, smiling sweetly.

"Okay Draco, who put Amortentia in your hot cocoa?" I asked, grabbing a present and finally opening it. It was a charm bracelet. I looked at all the charms. One was a snitch, one was a broomstick, one was a ice skate, one was a heart, and the last one had the word "Malfoy's?" On the back of a tiny bottle. I gasped. Then looked to Draco, who asked with his eyes, the same thing written on the bottle. At first I didn't know what to do. I sat there shocked. Was I ready? I nodded. Then placed the charm bracelet on my wrist. Draco jumped up, and pranced right over to the tree, taking out a small present, that was very well hidden within the branches. Draco returned and handed the small box to me.

"I was saving it in case you said no... I was quite doubtful you would say yes... But you did so... here..." Draco drifted off. I pulled at the bow and took off the lid and gasped again. It was a golden necklace, with three little jewels, all three were emeralds. I gasped and didn't hesitate to put the necklace on.

"Draco... I..." But I didn't finish. Mostly because Draco was now kissing me. Right on the lips.
