Lions Vs Snakes

Chapter Ten

Draco woke up to once again find Harry in his bed. Harry was curled up like a lion cub with his face pressed into the pillow. Harry was awake and muttered a small "Happy Christmas" to Draco.

"Happy Christmas to you too love." Draco grinned jumping out of bed.

He accioed Harry's clothes which hit Harry's face much to Draco's amusement. Draco strode over to the dresser to fetch his own clothes. He was about to put on his shirt when Harry stole it from him.

"Here this will do much better." Harry said as he placed Draco's shirt back into the dresser and handed Draco a sloppily wrapped gift.

Harry held his own matching gift and waited for Draco to open his first.

Draco stares at the lable on the gift very confused.
"From Mrs.Weasley?"

Harry nodded. Mrs. Weasley had sent them both a special Weasley jumper. In fact Mrs. Weasley had sent jumpers to every single Professor at Hogwarts this year. Even if she needed a lot of extra wool for Hagrid's.

Draco slowly unraveled the gift. When he noticed it was a green jumper with a silver "D" sewn onto the front. His face immediately lit up. He glanced at Harry who was now wearing his own Weasley jumper.

"I...I get a sweater from Mrs. Weasley?" Draco felt very confused. He held the jumper as if it was a priceless artifact he was unsure of what to do with.

Draco's mind was racing. Why would they give you a sweater? Why Would Molly Weasley spend her valuable time on making me a sweater? 

"Of course you do!" Harry beamed. Delighted that Draco liked the sweater.

Draco put on his sweater. It was a little big but he loved it. "It's perfect!" He twirled around so Harry could inspect.

"You look cute!" Harry announced and gave Draco a hug before lacing their fingers together.

Together they walked to the Great Hall for breakfast. Harry had planned a day of fun and excitement for him and Draco. Hagrid walked passed them wearing a rather large jumper that was no doubt made by Molly Weasley. He seemed so cheery. It made Harry happy to know everyone he loved was happy. 

"Mornin' boys! Oh an' Happy Christmas!" Hagrid's gruff voice boomed down the hall.

"Happy Christmas Hagrid!" The boys said in unison. They high-fived with their free hands. 

They entered the hall only to see all their professors happily wearing their own Weasley jumper. Well all except Snape whom Mcgonagall was trying to persuade to wear his Weasley jumper. She finally had enough and pulled out her wand. In a flick of her wand Snape was grouchily wearing a bright pink Weasley jumper. Draco burst out laughing as Harry tried to conceal the urge to erupt into a fit of giggles. It was useless. Flitwick and Sprout were laughing as well. Trelawny was staring at him probably wishing she had a camera.

"Oh look at our wittle Severus!" Mcgonagall managed through laughs. Her face was Weasley red.

"Stop laughing!" Snape yelled at everyone though it was clear he was slightly amused. He soon turned bright red and hid his face in his pink sweater. 

Still laughing the boys sat down at what was usually the Ravenclaw table. Once the other students who had stayed behind over the holidays settled down into their seats Mcgonagall waved her wand and the breakfast food apeared.

"I forgot my gifts for the Professors." Draco whispered into Harry's ear. "I'm going to fetch them. I'll be right back."

Draco stood up, took another bite of his toast and ran out of the hall. Harry sat alone at the table and finished his own breakfast. The mail arrived and Harry got many gifts from the Weasleys, Tonks, and the Dursleys.
