“Draco?” They were sitting in ‘their’ room, still charmed to look like a winter chalet. “I miss my Christmas Elf.”

“Oh you do, do you?” Draco stroked Harry’s arm. He was lying on the sofa with his head in Draco’s lap. He looked beautiful, especially from this angle, and Draco couldn’t resist bending to press a soft kiss to Harry’s lips.

“Mmm.” Harry smiled. “It was nice, getting to know you like that. And the presents were pretty great too!”

Draco snorted. “Well, if you’re a good boy, then maybe you can sit in Santa’s lap…” He wiggled his eyebrows teasingly. His voice got more serious. “If you want to get to know me, then just ask.”

They had spent every evening together since that Saturday night when Harry had first brought him here. Term was ending tomorrow, and Draco hadn’t asked what Harry’s plans for the holiday were. Weasley was being uncomfortably polite to him so he thought his usual Christmas invitation was still standing. He was still planning on staying at Hogwarts, and was prepared for a lonely time.

“Have you ever done this before?” Harry’s question surprised him out of his increasingly unhappy thoughts.

“Done what?” Draco continued stroking up and down Harry’s arm, massaging the muscles with his fingers.

“This. This relationship thing.” Harry was fiddling with his fingernails and not looking up at Draco.

His voice was quiet. “No.” He was vaguely embarrassed at being eighteen and never having had a relationship, but they had fought a war. Which made it rather understandable, he thought.

“Me neither.”

“What about Ginevra?” Draco remembered not to call her the Weaselette.

“That wasn’t the same.” His heart swelled. He felt selfish, wanting to be different to Harry, wanting to be something other than everyone else, but then, it was all he’d ever wanted. Hearing confirmation of it made him feel unbelievably happy, but also a definite pressure not to screw this up. “Are you still staying at Hogwarts over the holiday?”

The change of topic didn’t surprise him. He had noticed that Harry only seemed to open up for moments at a time. “Yes. My parents are in France already.”

“Oh. I’m going to go to the Weasleys’s this weekend, and explain to Mrs Weasley that I want to spend the holidays here. I don’t want to tell her in a letter, and she’ll fuss about it.” Draco smiled. He wasn’t going to have a horrible lonely Christmas after all!

He tugged on Harry’s arm. “Come here.” Harry obediently sat up so he was next to him and slipped an arm around his waist. He leaned his head up for a kiss, and Draco tried to put all the happiness and relief he was feeling into their kiss. He hadn’t admitted to anyone just how much he was dreading spending Christmas without his family.
