Prompt: #1 snowy London

It's the day after Christmas and they should have been resting, lying about until midday when they would get up for something for sustenance.

Instead Harry stood next to Draco holding spello-tape, handing over the appropriate amounts as his boyfriend asked for them.

Draco had photos spread out, on all all available surfaces. They had already changed all the frames until all the photos were in identical thin black frames. Harry thought the other frames were perfectly nice but he didn't argue and just helped.

Now the blond was busy placing them back, but he was not putting them on the mantle, like they'd been before but adhering them to the wall above the fire place.

Draco seemed to be following a pattern he saw in his mind, some frames horizontally, others vertically, all until they were all set up.

It was then that Harry noticed Draco was setting one last picture on the coffee table.

"I still have spello-tape." Harry lifted the dispenser.

"Oh, it's alright. I didn't think you'd want this one on there." Draco murmured.

Harry moved the frame around to see what picture he spoke of.

It was the shot they'd taken under the Eiffel Tower. Draco had been able to coax his parents to venture out of the manor and enjoy dinner at their favorite restaurant in Paris. Harry had joined them without much fuss because Draco had been so great about the dining with the Weasley's on Christmas Eve, so Christmas with the elder Malfoy's in Paris didn't seem that bad.

Draco kept the conversation flowing and Harry contributed where he could, Narcissa was easier to get along with because she was warmer to him that she'd been before. Now that she didn't look at him like he was something below her, he could see that she was more Andromeda's sister than she'd been Bellatrix's.

When they'd shared that walk after their delicious dinner, Harry had brought up the suggestion of the picture because he could see his boyfriend toy with the camera in his hands,hesitating.

The tripod had been utilized again and they'd managed a great shot of the Eiffel tower above them. Harry stood beside Draco holding his hand, Narcissa holding her sons hand and Lucius with his arm around his wife.

"Go ahead and put it on there. They're your family and they're important to you. It's our life on that wall." He reminded handing him the dispenser.

"Thank you Harry"  Draco turned and added the last one near the family photo with the Weasleys.

Harry went to stand beside him to take in the final product. He noticed that pictures that were taken on the same day seemed to be cycling in the same frame.

"How did you do that?"

"Hermione and I adapted a spell to get that effect, she said it was like something the muggles have, a digital photo frame?" Draco shrugged unsure if the name was correct.

"It looks great." Harry complimented catching sight of Draco's first attempt, then photos of them in front of Christmas tree, on Sirius restored motorbike, even the snow man versions of them.

"I think there's your proof that you are an important part of my life" Harry teased  waving his hand at the collection of winter memories.

"We may have to stick to albums Harry, because I plan to add many more." Draco replied slipping his hand into his.
