"Daddy, will you help me build a snow fort?"

Draco tried not to let Annalise see him cringe. "Er, snow forts are more your Papa's forte," he told her. "You run along and drag him out there while I brew us up some hot chocolate in my cauldron."

"Daddy, you don't brew hot chocolate in a cauldron!" Annalise laughed.

"Shall I make it on the hob, then?"

Annalise nodded and skipped off to find Harry. "Papa, Daddy says you hafta help me build a snow fort."

"He did?" Harry asked. "And what is your Daddy going to be doing while we're out there in the cold making a snow fort?"

"He says he'll make hot chocolate," Annalise replied.

"I'll race you out there," Harry challenged, rushing to the closet in the entryway.

Harry shivered as he stood back to admire the fort he had constructed under Annalise's supervision. He had been conscious of renewing the warming charms on his daughter, but he had been neglecting them for himself. "I think it's done," he announced.

"Let's go in for some hot chocolate!" exclaimed Annalise.

"Wait," cried Harry. "Don't you want to play in your snow fort?"

"Nope," Annalise replied, already slogging through the snow on her way back to the house.

Harry trudged after her. "Little ingrate," he muttered. By the time Harry had stripped off his outerwear and entered the kitchen, Annalise was already seated at the table sipping hot chocolate and munching on an iced biscuit.

Draco pressed a mug of hot chocolate into Harry's cold hands. "Thank you," he whispered in Harry's ear, brushing a kiss over his chilled cheek.

"Thank you," Harry smiled, grateful for his husband's thoughtfulness.
