Christmas time, one of my other favorite holidays. I packed a bag for the holiday, as i was leaving with my father to go to London. Morticia followed me to the hall, as I carried Lucifers case, waiting to go. Even though it was going to be for two days, and ill be back here again.

"Leaving late i see." Draco comes up with Crabbe.

"My father and I have plans to go to London with Katherine and Lucas for Christmas, ill be back after."

"You spend time with muggles?" Goyle spoke to me.

"Not exactly. Its just the four of us, it always been tradition." I held my head up, "and what are you guys doing? Staying behind because mommy and daddy forgot to pick you up?"

"Im leaving tomorrow." Draco steps forward. "Crabbe and Goyle stays here."

"Well, i cant imagine spending more time in this school any longer, i need to leave." I struggled with the heavy case.

"Let me help you." Draco grabs the case. Which surprised me since Malfoy never helps anyone. "I'll catch you guys later." He shoos the boys away. Draco and I began to walk to the main door. "Ignore them, they don't know their manners."

"I can see where they get it from." I held my bag, looking at him. Malfoy clenched his jaw. "Now now Malfoy, no need to get angry, im just saying whats true."

"Mr. Malfoy." My father said as he appears behind him. He jumps a little. My father grabs the case from him. "I think we won't be needing your assistance anymore."

"Have a nice trip Snape." Draco walks away. I watched him walk away. My father started to head out, making me look back and followed him. We set my belongings in the car and we headed off. Katherine was already at the home in London, every year she heads up there early, fix the home up for the holiday. The ride was quiet, i just looked out from the window while Morticia slept on my lap.

"You and Malfoy?" My father blurts out.

"What ew." I said with a disgusted look. "We're just friends, nothing more." We arrived at the home. I ran inside, leaving my father behind. "Katherine!" I ran to hug her. She opened her arms and i crashed into her. "I've missed you! Lucas!" He picks me up and puts me on his shoulders.

"Look at you! You grew!" He made me laugh.

"I see that you love the earrings I gave you."

"I do." I smiled. My father came in, carrying the bags while me and Lucas play around.

"Katherine." He sets them down. "Lucas."

"Severus." Morticia laid on the couch only to fall asleep again. "I made dinner, come on now." She pushed us to the dining room table, eating. I was starving. Katherine cleaned up the table and I went to a room where the piano was. I sat down with Lucas and opened the keys. I placed my fingers and let them dance around.

The way it sounded so calming. Severus enjoyed watching Daphne do what she loved the most. He love the way Daphne would sit there for hours and just make music at the spot.

"Wonderful she is." Katherine said as she stood next to him. Lucas stood up and went to Katherine.

"A handful." Lucas jokes.

"Talented as well." Hes proud to have Daphne in his life. He might not show it, but he hopes deep down that Daphne knows he does love her.

Christmas was good for the Snapes/Coxs, Daphne got what she wanted. New spell books, shoes, and sweaters. They left the London home and headed back to Hogwarts, leaving Katherine back home and Lucas having a business emergency. Daphne was glad to be back, she weirdly missed it here. Still on break, with nothing to do, she started reading her new spells book that her father had given her.
