Heart- Sequel to Broken

Chapter 10 [Christmas Special]

*Draco's POV*

"So, Christmas is coming." Hermione said, rolling over on the couch so her head was in my lap and she was looking up at me.
"Indeed it is my love."
"I was thinking..." She trailed off.
"Thinking what?"
"Well I kinda wanted to see if everyone would stay and have a celebration with us. You know since we're you know.. mending fences." She smiled at me hopefully.
"I suppose this means Potter's staying too?" I say, sighing dramatically.
She rolled her eyes at me, "Yes Draco. And his name is Harry."
"I was kidding." She rolls her eyes one again and I lean down, touch her nose with mine then abruptly start tickling her.
She jumps and squeals in surprise, "Stop it!" Her laughter warms my soul and is so infectious I grin and hug her.
"Okay." I say.
"Really?"
"Nope." I laugh and start tickling her again.
She bursts out laughing and curls into a ball. She accidentally knees me in the head and I jump back. After suddenly letting go of her and jumping she rolls off me and lands on the floor with a bang. I start laughing and she gets up rubbing her head, glaring at me jokingly. We're both rubbing our heads and trying not to laugh before I swoop down and kiss her saying, "I'm going to go check on Rose. I love you."
"Uh huh." She retorts before laughing and walking off to the kitchen to make dinner. Before fully exiting the room I pause, holding the door frame and look back at her. I don't know why I never noticed how beautiful she was when we were in school. It would've saved us both a lot of time and pain. "Take a picture love, it'll last longer." She calls back. I laugh and blush a light shade of pink. It's crazy the effect she has on me. Even a little sentence like that coming out of her mouth makes me blush. I shake my head, still grinning like and idiot and head to go check on the other beautiful female who has all my love.

*Hermione Point of View*

"Draco?" I ask, confused when I hear someone walk into the kitchen.
"Nope. Just us lovebird." Ginny says, walking up to the kitchen island, followed by Luna. I laugh and stick my tongue out at her. "Anything we can help with?"
"Well I'm going to make pizza."
"What?" Ginny asks.
"Pizza." I say, as though it's obvious. "For the love of Merlin. Have you never had pizza?"
"I've heard of it but we've never had it."
"You're in for a treat today girls."  I laugh, "Grab me the flour."

2 hours and 5 'accidental' flour disasters later we made 4 pizzas. Luna excited to set the table and Ginny went to go get everyone else. I flooed over to the Bell's house and invited them over for dinner. They gladly accepted after laughing about my flour covered face and headed right over with me. Everyone sat and I brought out the pizzas, setting them up at the table. We spent the rest of the night eating, laughing, and making amends.

*Ginny POV*
"Wake up! Wake up!" I groan and push Hermione's face away from mine.
"Sleep. Sleep." I mock her before curling up into Harry, him laughing lightly at me.
"Noooo You need to get up. We're going to go get our Christmas tree!"
I groan louder, "I want sleep!"
"Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope."
"OKAY! Okay. I'm up." I heard her clap excitedly then rush out presumably to go wake up Luna and Blaise. "WAIT HERMIONE! WHEN ARE WE LEAVING?"
"HALF AN HOUR"
"OKAY"
"Do you have to yell?"
"Harry. Honey.. Is that even a question?"

"Do we even have any decorations?" I ask, rubbing my belly, leaning against Harry.
Hermione rolled her eyes at me and gave me a 'that is such a stupid question why did you even ask it?' look. I held my hands up in a defensive position as she grinned and summoned the boxes of ornaments.
Holding Rose in one arm, she reached down to open one of the boxes and was promptly stopped by Draco who rushed over and grabbed Rose, fawning over her. She jokingly hit him and then resumed her previous mission of 'operation christmas tree'. Draco set Rose down in her baby chair and we began decorating.
Decorating consisted of a lot of pictures, eggnog, hot chocolate, and kissing. We all stood, basking in the soft glow of christmas tree lights, smiling and leaning against our loves. I looked up at Harry and he looked down at me, a small smile gracing his face. I stood on my tip toes and he dipped his head slightly so that our lips connected. My eyes fluttered shut and I turned slightly so that I was in the circle of his arms, feeling safe, warm, and loved.
