The Christmas Gift
Harry sat at the kitchen table, papers and folders spread haphazardly about and for the tenth time glanced towards Ginny sitting quietly reading a book and shifted uncomfortably. Ginny, oblivious to the state that Harry was in simply continued reading. It was rare that Harry brought any work home and it seemed the holidays were always the time the work increased. But the sight of the vibrant redhead in the other room continued to disturb Harry and it was all because of that bloody Christmas present he had given her.
Two Weeks Earlier
Harry was gathered at the Burrow for Christmas morning watching Teddy open his presents when he felt a small tug on his arm. He turned to see Ginny standing next to him with a small package. She was looking a bit guilty as she handed it to him, "I know we promised not to exchange gifts this year, but I couldn't resist."
Harry took the gift and held it in his hand and looked at Ginny. With a smile he leaned over to kiss her cheek and reached to the side and handed her a small bag with silver ribbons, "I won't get mad at you as long as you don't get mad at me."
The pair sat down in the only available place, a secluded corner near the fireplace away from most of the activity in the room. Harry smiled as he opened the package from Ginny. It seemed that they had the same thought and bought each other various sweets. Harry's package contained a collection of candies from Hogsmeade while Ginny's was a collection of muggle Christmas candy.
Now
Harry stood up to get a glass of water and when he turned back to his chair he found Ginny blocking his path. She had her book in her hand and the offending candy in the other hand, "What did you say these were called again Harry?"
Harry moved around Ginny to sit at the table, "It's called a candy cane."
Ginny nodded and hopped on the counter facing Harry and continued reading her book. She didn't notice Harry watching her as she absentmindedly sucked on the end of the candy. It was that simple act that was driving him absolutely insane. He was all too aware that his body was responding in ways that left him quite uncomfortable. With a frustrated growl Harry threw his quill across the table and stretched back in the chair with his eyes closed, anything to get the image of Ginny innocently sucking on that damn candy out of his mind. Ginny gave Harry a curious stare, "Are you ok Harry?"
Leaning forward, hair disheveled and glasses slightly askew he nodded, "Yea just distracted. I can't seem to concentrate on work tonight."
Ginny frowned, "You want me to go in the other room?"
Harry shook his head, "I don't think it would matter, you can stay if you like."
Ginny shrugged and went back to reading. For the next half hour Harry managed to make some headway with his work even with Ginny in the same room. However he almost came undone as he watched her slowly working the candy cane back and forth in her mouth. It was at this exact moment that Ginny glanced from her book and realized just what was distracting Harry. Choosing to act like she had not noticed him watching she continued to move the candy in a more suggestive manner. All the while Harry was becoming more and more uncomfortable. Harry chanced a look when he heard a noise and saw Ginny put her book down and lock eyes with him. Blushing furiously Harry looked away.
