“A Muggle shop? Daft idea,” Draco grumbled.
Harry sighed. “Just stay here. I’ll be one minute.”
Harry dashed in and Draco began inspecting a gaudy display depicting elves in various stages of merriment. In the centre sat... Draco grinned, walking in. Santa wasn’t busy.
“Ho! What’s your Christmas wish?” Santa asked cheerily.
“I’m a bit old for that.”
“No one’s too old,” Santa said. “Sit.”
Draco’s hesitated as Santa patted his knee. As odd as it seemed, however, this felt right, so Draco stepped over several gaily wrapped parcels and sat.
“What’s your wish this year?” Santa asked.
Draco started to give a flippant answer, but something made him be truthful. “A commitment from Harry,” he whispered. “I want us to be a family.”
“What does Harry want?”
Draco shrugged.
“Ask.”
Draco looked up, Santa’s tone making him suspicious, but just then he got distracted.
“Draco?”
Seeing Harry, he said, “Thanks anyway, Santa,” before walking off.
“What were you doing?” Harry asked.
“Talking to Santa,” Draco said, pointing.
“I hope he didn’t answer,” Harry chuckled.
“What--?” When Draco looked back, it was clear Santa was a statue. He gaped.
“You okay?” Harry asked.
Draco shook his head. What’d just happened?
