"Has everyone made their list of New Year's resolutions yet?" asked an enthusiastic Hermione.

Ron groaned. "I've broken every one I've ever made, so what's the point?"

"The point, Ronald" - she rolled her eyes and huffed impatiently - "is to make resolutions that are meaningful but also attainable."

Draco turned away as he saw Ron making faces when Hermione turned to the rest of the group.

"It's really important," she continued, addressing everyone, "that you have goals. Now that we're out of school, it's even more important. That way, it gives us something to focus on."




Later that night ...

"Harry?"

"Hmm?"

"I've been thinking about what Hermione said earlier, and I have to say that I agree with her."

"You ... what?!"

"Yes, well, I know ... wonders never cease. But she does have point. We should have something to come back to, something to use as a gauge to check on our progress throughout the year."

"We should?"

"Most definitely. And I agree that any resolutions we set should be achievable."

"Okay." Harry couldn't have sounded less interested.

"So I had a thought."

"Yes?" Harry looked at him warily.

"I resolve to not let our sex life get boring."

Harry laughed. "Okay, then."

"So I think we should resolve to do something different each month, just to keep things interesting."

Now he had Harry's attention. "Sounds good to me."

"How about we alternate? I'll come up with something for January, March, and so on, and you come up with something for February, April, etc."

"You're on!"

Casting Harry a wicked grin, Draco wrote down his first resolution.

Harry's smile faltered, and he was looking a bit worried. "Um, Draco. You do remember that these have to be things that are achievable, right?"

Draco narrowed his eyes and leaned forward, growling in Harry's ear, "Oh, it's doable, alright."

Yay! You are quite welcome.

So glad you enjoyed this. I thought you might like something a little cheeky to go along with your prompt. *g*

Happy Christmas! *smooches*

*pinches your cheek*

Loved it. I'm always up for a little cheek and snark, as long as it doesn't interfere with the boys getting some...

Heh. The prompt went up pretty late (I did more drabbles while I waited), and I had to go get my boys from their dad's. We just now finished our Christmas dinner, so ... I shall see what I can get done, now that they're downstairs playing with their gifts. :o)

Sorry, babe. It's just me being annoying. I forgot you were doing these fics off of prompts; I was thinking you had them all written and were just waiting to post them on a daily basis. *is tired* I'll be on the watch later (I work from 1a-7a), but please just relax and enjoy the holiday...

Hee. No apologies necessary. I was impatiently awaiting the prompt, which didn't come until a little too close to the time I had to leave to get the boys. I had actually written one of them before the prompt came out, and weaved the prompt in afterwards, but not this time. Besides, the prompt is 'don we now our gay apparel' and I'm trying to figure out how to weave THAT into the ending I wanted to write. *g* But fear not! I just need to rest a bit first. Turkey. Tryptophan. Must. Resist. Sleep. Keep. Eyes. Open. Must. Write. Can't. Write. While. Asleep. *thud*

Glad you had a good Christmas, dear. I'm off to work.

Hee! I had a bit of a rest (listening to DH on audiobook ♥ ♥ ♥), and now I'm drinking coffee. Might enable me to write tonight. But now I don't want to turn off the audiobook. *sighs*

Just got to the part where Kreacher arrives with Mundungus in tow.

Decisions ... decisions ... write/listen ... listen/write ... go to bed ... write/listen ... bah!

Hee. That was meant to be ... do I write or do I listen? Do I listen or do I write? Or do I blow off both and go to sleep? Heh. I did post a gift!fic, but it was done already ... I just had to wait until after midnight to post it, so my Boxing Day one is done.

I'll go back to writing the Different View one now. Then I can edit tomorrow (er ... later today) when I'm marginally more coherent.

My first thought was that 'doable' is a relative word, and the second that, in any case they have a whole month to make things work out.

My third is that possibly I'm a little pervy, but I'm blaming the lack of sleep

Definitely relative, which is the reason for Harry's apprehensive look. *nods*

No doubt they'll work it out. *is confident*

No worries. Isn't that a big part of why we're all here? ;)

Ahahahah, I love how Harry's reaction shifts here from disinterest to very interested to slightly worried. *giggles* And everything's doable, I'm sure they're work it out somehow. ;D

Harry has a healthy sense of fear where Draco is concerned. *grins*

No doubt they'll work everything out just fine. Heh.

Baha! "Doable" - heh! I love it! And I think the phrase "Be afraid, be very afraid" should apply for Harry when discussing Draco's interests in bed - especially if he's TRYING to be creative! *grin*

Heh. VERY afraid, indeed. ;)

Ha ha! Now, you'll need to write more of this each month.

Heh. A la [livejournal.com profile] hd_365 style perhaps?

Ooh ... are you going to do a wedding!fic for that comm? *begs*

Just revisited that last one you did, and I saw that you're pondering a fic a week, leading to a December/08 wedding. *flails* Oh please, oh please, oh please!!! That would be sooooo awesome!!!

That's a wonderful resolution! Harry being all worried that it may not be achievable made me giggle. Oh, Harry, you clearly don't know your Draco as well as you thought! :D It's DEFINITELY doable! ;)

Draco taking Hermione's advice was funny ... and how he took it was even better.

Thanks for writing & sharing! :D

Heheheh. Harry's just a wee bit afraid of what Draco has in mind. He is, after all, a Slytherin. *g* ;)

Hehe. First Draco agreeing with Hermione *g*

I can imagine that one might worry about Draco's resolution, especially when it's accompanied by a "wicked grin" but I'm quite sure it will work out for both of them!

Heheheh. I'm sure they'll both get pleasure out of it!
