Harry sat on their sofa in Draco's arms, his back to Draco's chest, snuggled in for the night. Their living room was lit only with the lights from their Christmas tree. When he looked up at Draco, he could see them reflected in the deep grey pools of his eyes. Harry sighed with contentment. It didn't get much better than this.

"Harry, about the tree ..."

"It's beautiful, isn't it, Draco?"

"Yes it is, but --"

"I'm so glad you insisted on real fairies. They make all the difference in the world."

Draco smiled at Harry. "I told you they would. There's something extra special about fairy magic."

"Yes there is. And something special about our first tree."

"Harry, I think it's time --"

"Our first tree, Draco. Can you believe that we've been together for almost a year? It feels like only yesterday we were putting the tree up together."

"It's time, Harry."

"But I don't want to take it down yet," Harry pouted. "It's special. Our first Christmas together."

"I know, Harry, but --"

"Just a little while longer?"

"No, Harry, I really have to insist. It's getting embarrassing."

"But --"

"Harry, it's Easter next week. Perhaps we can decorate for that instead."

As soon as Harry jumped up and started conjuring pink and yellow and orange ribbon, Draco knew he would regret this. He had visions of them living in a pastel nightmare for the next seven months, until Hallowe'en came round.

"I should have let him keep the tree up," he grumbled.

Oh, Harry, you sentimental sap you! He's so adorable, not wanting to let his first tree with Draco get taken down. I wanted to hug him!

The ending made me laugh. Poor Draco. LOL!

Great fic!

[svgurl.livejournal.com]

Don't you though? He's a gorgeous, gorgeous man. ;)

I'm glad you enjoyed! This little deal I have w/ sesheta is fun for everyone.

Awwwww I love it!!! Harry is so adorable... and Draco, so strangely sensible about the whole thing... Thank you so much for the birthday fic! ♥♥♥♥ =)=)

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

You're welcome, sweetie. I couldn't resist, considering it really is almost Easter. ♥

Hahah, so cute! Draco has been really patient. Good thing he didn't mention the change of decoration near Valentine, or he'd have red hearts and cherubs for life!

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

I dunno ... I think he'd be safe around Valentine's Day, since Harry had his fill from second year with Gilderoy Lockhart and at Madam Puddifoot's place with Cho. *shudders*

Awww! It's cute and lovely and the last part so made me laugh. Silly Harry and I love how Draco grumbles about it, but still lets Harry get his way... a little.

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Thanks :)

[kaykayen.livejournal.com]

ROTFLMAO! Absolutely adorable!

LOL! I was snickering the whole time, having seen the prompt was Easter! :D :D So cute.

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Glad you enjoyed it. :)

Oh! I do love a sweet, sappy and sentimental Harry!
*swoons*

And let's not forget that Harry didn't really get to celebrate holidays when he was young, so of course he might go a little overboard... okay A LOT overboard!

*giggles like a schoolgirl*

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

*grins* I love a sappy Harry too. *squishes him*

[nohesitations.livejournal.com]

[enablelove.livejournal.com]

[sesheta-66.livejournal.com]

Thanks!

Draco's right; he'll be in Pastel Hell until Halloween.
But with Harry cuddled against his chest, I have faith he can endure.

Good work.

Mmm ... cuddling in can soothe the senses, can't it? ;)
