Hermione

The week was almost over and christmas was the next day. Hermiones week was great unless you counted the amount of time she spent on the bathroom floor curled up in a ball. Being a girl sucks. (Its true)

Hermione still had to get everyones presents and she decided that today was the day to do just that. She was currently laying in Draco's bed - with a sleeping malfoy next to her. As she didnt want to wake him she stayed there until she knew they both had to get up.

"Draco" she whispered - nothing.

"Draco" she said a bit louder - nothing.

"Draco" she said even louder - nothing.

She quickly cast a silencing charm on the room so that no one else would be disturbed by the noise.

"Draco" she said almost yelling - nothing.

She sighed before casting her eyes over him. They rested on his lips. They looked soft and pink. She bent over and gently placed her lips to his. Nothing happened so she tried again. She slowly made her way away from his mouth trailing small kisses on his cheek, his jaw, and his neck.

"Good morning, Love. Do you want a kiss?" Draco said, making Hermione jump out of her skin.

"Dray. You scared the living daylights out of me."

"Living daylights? Should I know what that means?"

"Its a muggle expression."

"That makes sense. So, how about that kiss" he said, smirking as she blushed. Instead of answering hermione pushed her head up to his and kissed him. It was soft and gentle, slow and full of love.

After a few moments they pulled back smiling. There was a knock on their door and Hermione gave him a peck on the lips before going to answer it.

Standing at the door was Narcissa Malfoy. She looked delighted when she saw hermione had opened the door.

"Miss Zabini. Can I come in?"

"Umm..." She turned to draco, "Drake your mother would like to cone in can she?"

Draco called out, "yeah. Come in mother"

Narcissa walked in and sat on the small armchair occupying one corner in the bedroom. Hermione walked back to the bed and sat next to Draco, who wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her close.

"I came to ask you children what you are doing today." She asked.

"I wanted to go christmas shopping for everyone." Hermione said.

"Me too." Draco pitched in.

"Very well then. Make sure you are home for dinner."

"Yes Mother." "Yes Mrs Malfoy" the two replies said at the same time.

"No problem. And dear, do call me Narcissa."

"Ok... Narcissa." Narcissa smiled st Hermione before standing and walking out of the room. She turned to Draco and gave him a quick kiss on the lips. "I'll just get dressed and then we can go.... Without the others."

"OK, love." He replied and Hermione grabbed some clothes be for heading into the bathroom. Today she was wearing a long sleeved black shirt that stopped in the middle of her stomach, a pair of ripped jeans, and a denim jacket that matched the jeans. (a/n As in the picture above)

She also had her small bag with her - the one with the undetectable extension charm - in which she stored her muggle and wizarding money, books, useful potions, and a spare set of clothes for both her and Draco. She made sure her wand was stowed away in one of the interior coat pockets and that her iPhone was in a pocket on her jeans.

As she walked out of the bathroom she noticed that Draco had also gotten dressed. he was wearing some black jeans, and a button up green shirt.

'I dont deserve this. He's too perfect, and once we get back to school girls will probably be trying to get back on him' she thought.

He obviously noticed her gaze, since he looked up and their eyes locked.

"Well, hello Granger."

"Malfoy."

"Ready to go?"

"Yeah, you?" Draco nodded and together the two left the room hand in hand. They left a note for the others saying that they would be in diagon alley buying christmas gifts. They quickly apparated to Diagon Alley.

"So, where do you want to go?" Draco asked.

"Umm... For harry, maybe something from quality quidditch supplies. For Ginny, a new dress from Madame Malkin's. I need you help with blaise's, my fathers, your mother and blaises mother."

"Hermione, you don't need to get my mother or godmother anything. As for blaise I have an idea."

"Draco, I will be getting your mother a gift. She's already accepted me and I feel like I need to give her something in return. As for Amanda I need to get her something - she raised my twin brother for the last 18 years."

"He's not your twin brother."

"Technically he is. Maybe, but I dont care - he's my twin brother and thats how it will stay."

"Fine, jese Zabini."

"Also, what do you want?"

"All I want is you."

"Aww... Dray, please. Just give me an idea."

"Fine. Long brown hair, slightly curly. Chocolate brown eyes -"

"No. A present - an object of some sort."

"Weasley's. I love their products and I feel as though I should be helping George."

"Why do you feel that?"

"He and Fred used to help me. I'd come to them whenever I needed advice. They are the reason I had enough courage to come and apologize to you."

"Wow. Um, well I was needing to go there anyways, so do you want to come with me."

"Sure." The two walked towards the brightly coloured shop in the middle of the street. Draco opened the door like a gentleman only so Hermione could be taken out by a tall red head. He was obviously the remaining half of the greatest mischief makers the world has ever seen - he was George Weasley.

"Mione!! You've came. I was worried I wouldn't get to see you until tomorrow."

"George, you are ridiculous. Of course i came to see you, you are the only one of two people that could drive me crazy." She said, making both George and herself look down with tears in their eyes. "I'm sorry George. I shouldn't have."

"Its OK Hermione. Now what can I help you with?"

She quickly dragged George away from Draco and making sure he was out of earshot before turning to George.

"I need to get him something. He won't give me any proper hints, and I know he wants something from you."

"Well... Thats surpring. I have the perfect thing for him, I will be right back." George walked away and a few minutes if standing there he came back. In his hand was a small box that was filled with little bottles. She looked at him curiously.

~~Time skip to christmas day~~

Hermione woke up to a huge smile and bright grey eyes. He was laying on top of her and looking at her as though she had just.... I dont know done something amazing or something terribly wrong.

"ITS CHRISTMAS, MIA!!! WOO HOO.... PRESENTS!!!! wait mia, why isnt anyone barging in here telling me to shut up?"

"I may have cast a silencing charm yesterday before i tried to wake you up."

"Ok. What did you even try to do to wake me up?"

"It doesnt matter now."

"Lets go down." And before she could reply he had dragged her pajama clad body down the stairs and into the living room. In the corner there was a large tree with wrapped presents beneath it - including the ones she had bought the others the day before.

Draco pulled her over and she sat on his lap. They along with everyones else grabbed their presents from under the tree and started to unwrap them.

Her first present was from blaise - it was a small green diary with silver and gold patterns running along the front. On the front page in Blaise's handwriting was a small message, it said 'We all know you have one, so time to tell your story'.

Her second present was from Narcissa. It was a beautiful long dress that was black at the top and faded through to white. It had small diamonds on top of the one sleeve and some around the middle of the dress as well.

"Thank you, so much Narcissa" Hermione said, tears coming to her eyes.

"Its quite all right, Hermione. I was hoping you might wear it to our New Years Eve ball."

"Of course I will."

Her third present or rather presents were from the Weasleys. She had a green knitted sweater (from Mrs Weasley), some pudding (also Mrs Weasley), a rubber duck (Mr Weasley), Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them by Newt Scamander (From Charlie and Bill Weasley).

And lastly she got a small vile of love potion (from George) which would last an hour. It wasnt normal love potion, it was one that would connect your mind to the person you love the most. This scared Hermione because who would it go to? Draco or Ron?

Her fourth present was from Ginny. It was two passes for a spa day.
Her next one was from Harry. He had given her two plane tickets for a round trip to Greece. Along with the two tickets there was a note which read:

'Take whomever you please. Have fun and be safe.

Love, Harry Potter (your best friend)

P.S. if you dont know who to take, might I suggest the handsome blonde that your always with.'

Hermione laughed, and everyone looked at her.

"Thanks a lot, Harry."

"I didnt know you'd laugh once you read it"

"Read what?" Draco asked

"I'll show you later" she replied.

The next present she opened was from her mum. It was a small ring that had small sapphires embedded in the band.

And finally her last present was from Draco. She carefully opened a box to find a silver necklace. On the end of the chain their was a small lion with a snake dancing around its feet. She looked at him and then kissed his cheek making a pink shade creep onto his face.

He handed her a piece of paper. It wasnt a card or anything, just a small folded piece of paper. She turned it over and read it.

'I will give you one last present tonight. I couldnt give it to you with all of the others here, so... Uhh, yeah.

D'

She smiled up at him and gave him another kiss on the cheek.
