Time slowly dwindled closer to Christmas Day and Harry found himself getting more and more excited. Since he received the promise from his godfathers that he would finally have a real Christmas, he allowed himself to feel the joy most other kids were accustomed to feeling.

Remus and Sirius had made a few last minute trips out to ensure Harry's Christmas Day would be the best one yet. They had all the presents wrapped and under the tree to give their small home an extra holiday touch. Harry had been eyeing the presents and got excited every time he saw his name on a present. Sirius and Remus has made sure to set some aside so that they would be "from Santa", hoping that would make Harry feel even more welcome.

When Christmas Eve finally arrived, Remus and Sirius felt they were even more excited than Harry was. They got him into bed and wished him goodnight before going to add the lasting touches for the next morning. Remus smiles at the tree and looks at his lover, "merry Christmas Pads" he says and smiles at the slightly shorter male. Sirius smiles happily back, "merry Christmas Moony." He says and wraps an arm around the taller's waist. Remus smiles and leans into him, "we should get to bed, Har will be up early" he chuckles, leading them off to bed.

Harry awoke very early, the house sound asleep. Time passed slowly and Harry went down before his dads got up, looking at the presents under the tree, taken aback to see he had received gifts from Santa. He never had when he was at the Dursley's. He snuck back upstairs and tried to pass the time. When he saw the clock had finally gotten to a reasonable morning hour, he quietly walked to his dads room. "Daddy, Papa?" He asks and walks in a little farther, standing beside their bed. Sirius grumbled in his sleep but Remus sat up,

"Morning Cub" he smiles, nudging Sirius in the ribs. "Get up Pads, it's Christmas". He says and gets up. Sirius nods, getting up out of bed, his messy hair going every which way. Harry giggles and ran downstairs, his dads slowly following.

"Let us get some coffee pup and we'll start presents, alright?" Sirius asks once all three downstairs. Harry nodded and sat by the tree, waiting patiently. Remus and Sirius then joined Harry, Sirius sitting down by the tree to distribute presents. Harry sat excitedly by Remus and smiles up at them. Sirius passes out presents for the two and smiles happily as Harry opens his, smiling the entire time. Sirius and Remus were both very glad that Harry was acting like a normal 5 year old now.

Once all their presents were opened, Harry went to play with some of his new toys and make room around his room for the rest of the new things. So far, his favorite toy is a children's flying broomstick. Sirius was excited to help Harry learn to fly and to see if James' son had his great talent, which was to be expected. Remus watched from afar and tried not to mother the scene too much as he made breakfast and tidied up a little from present opening.

"Breakfast is ready" he calls to the boys and gets their plates ready. This was a good excuse for them to stop playing with that broomstick, it was just an accident waiting to happen. The boys sat down and started to eat, Sirius still explaining, in depth, the rules of quidditch and how he and James had played for their house, Gryffindor. Harry seemed very interested in all of it and Remus smiles, he really was like James.

After breakfast, Sirius took Harry outside and let him fly around so he had more space and so he wouldn't break anything. Sirius threw Harry some balls so he could try to catch them, and. It was very evident that Harry was better at catching the "snitch", which was actually just a tennis ball. Sirius felt very proud to know that his son was going to be a phenomenal quidditch player some day.

After a few rounds of Harry catching the ball and Sirius showing him some moves of his own on his old broomstick, the pair went back inside to warm up. Remus was by the fire place in the main room, reading his book to distract himself from Harry and Remus flying around the back yard.

Once the two were all tuckered out, they came back inside. Sirius was smiling proudly at Harry as they came in and they sat down by Remus on the couch, Harry between them. Remus set his book down and smiled at them. "How'd flying go cub?" He asked, ruffling the already unruly black hair. Harry laughs and smiles up at them, 

"Great! Daddy said I flew just like my dad did when he played quidditch for Gryffindor!" he says excitedly and looks up at Sirius. Sirius nods and smiles at Harry, 

"Yeah, you did pup. You definitely made me feel like proud daddy today" He smiles down at Harry happily then back up at Remus. Harry smiles up at them,

"Thank you" he smiles and hugs Sirius's middle tightly. Sirius chuckles "quite the death grip there pup" he teases and smiles at him. Remus smiles at them, he really couldn't wish for a better family or a better holiday.
