A loud wail broke the silence and Harry cracked open an eye. He rolled over to give his husband a kiss. “Merry Christmas.”

“Mm, yes, and a very merry one it is.” Lucius agreed. “I'll go get Lily.”

“No, you will not!” Harry rolled out of bed. “I know what your ploy is; you'll dress her in that green dress!”

“And what's wrong with that?” Lucius asked, watching Harry's bare bum as he walked to the wardrobe.

“She's wearing the red one; I got it specifically for today!” Harry told him. “It’s Christmas, she needs to wear red.”

Lucius frowned. “Green is a Christmas colour, too.” He protested.

Harry walked to the nursery door. “She's wearing red like a proper Gryffindor.” He said flatly, walking in to find his daughter being changed by Ellie. “Hello, Ellie. And how is my little princess today?” He cooed at Lily.

“Our little Slytherin is wonderful, just as she is every day.” Lucius said, walking in the doorway to join Harry.

Harry huffed. “She might be a Ravenclaw, you know.” He pointed out, playing devil's advocate.

“You won’t raise her to be that studious.” Lucius denied as Harry picked her up and brought her to his chest.

Harry winced as she bit down on his nipple, eager to get her blood and milk together. “Or a Hufflepuff.” He added.

Lucius chuckled. “Not our daughter; she’s destined for greater things.”

Harry hummed. “We'll see. When she’s older.”

“That we will.” Lucius agreed.

Harry walked over to the little wardrobe in the nursery and drew out the frilly, lacy red dress he had gotten for Lily’s first Christmas. “She's going to be adorable in this!” He declared happily.

Lucius chuckled. “She's always adorable. But you're right; she will be extra cute in that.”

Harry sat in the rocker. “You should go get dressed. You'll need the extra time to do your hair.”

“And leave tending the baby to the womenfolk?” Lucius teased.

Harry's head snapped up from his contemplation of Lily and he narrowed his eyes at his mate. “Say that again.” He hissed.

Lucius took a judicious step backward. “No, I don’t think I shall.” He said before fleeing the scene.

Harry looked down at Lily again. “Your father is lucky I’m so in love with him. Still, if he makes another comment likening me to a girl, I may kill him yet.” He said.

“Hi, Harry.” Hermione said, before turning her attention to Lily. “Oh, look how lovely she is in her Christmas dress! How precious!” She bent to give Lily a kiss on her forehead as the baby wriggled and made little babbling sounds.

Harry offered Lily to Hermione as she and Ron stepped into the Manor. “You need the practice.” He said, looking pointedly at her rounded stomach.

Hermione had relented in June of last year, and she and Ron had gotten engaged, and had wasted no time getting the wedding sorted and done. She was now just over three months pregnant and wasn't letting that slow her down at all in regards to her career. She was working in the Ministry, in the Department for Control and Regulation of Magical Creatures, and she was in the process of trying to set up a sub-division to deal with house-elf rights, but so far, the Ministry was proving highly resistant to that, so she was also trying to push through her changes to the Werewolf laws. That agenda was, so far, faring little better.

Ron, on the other hand, was working at the twins' shop.

“So, how's life? The husband? And all that rot?” Ron asked, slapping Harry on the back as soon as Hermione had taken Lily.

“Everything's great. I just patented a hair-straightening charm. Should replace Sleekeasy for some people, if all they want is straight hair. For people like Hermione, though, the hair potion is still going to need to be used. Sorry, Mione.” Harry said lightly.

Hermione shrugged. “It’s fine, it’s not like my hair offends me or anything.”

“Didn’t your family create Sleekeasy? Why would you want to replace it?” Ron asked, stymied.

Harry shrugged. “Yeah, that’s one place the Potters got a lot of their money from, but creating spells is good money, too, if you can actually come up with one that works and hasn’t been done before. The first few books to use it pay me royalties, and after that it becomes common knowledge. It’s good money, not that I really need it. It just keeps me from being totally idle.”

“Well, let's get to the tree. I have gifts for everybody. We're heading to the Burrow after, do you want to come? Lucius is invited, too.”

“No, Severus and Draco are coming by later, and we agreed we were going to have a quiet, family Christmas, just us Faurae. We'll come by tomorrow, though.” Harry promised.

“Fine, as long as you promise to bring Lily. Molly wants to see her again.” Hermione told him.

Harry grinned. “That's because she’s the sweetest, cutest baby in the world.” He said, more to Lily then to Hermione. “I don’t blame her.”
