The smell of gingerbread wafted through the house and the sound of Christmas carols could be heard. Draco could gag. Draco walked into the kitchen and saw Lux and Scorpius making cookies. "When will Santa be here?" Scopius asked Lux. "He comes while you're sleeping", Lux told him. "Daddy!" Scorpius yelled. Draco smiled as Scorpius ran up to him and grabbed his hand. "Come look at the gingerbread house mum and I made", Scorpius said. Scorpius dragged Draco to the table. "It's very good", Draco said. "Scor, go wash up before dinner", Lux said. Scorpius scampered out of the room. Draco wrapped his arms around his wife. "How's the little one?" Draco asked. "Calm", Lux said, "Loves to hear Scorpius' voice". "Scorpius is so excited to be getting a baby sister", Draco said. Draco gently rubbed Lux's pregnant stomach and softly kissed her on the lips. "Merry Christmas", Draco said. "Merry Christmas", Lux said. "Do you ever miss magic?" Draco asked her. "No", she said.
After dinner, Lux tucked Scorpius in. "Why do you tell him those stories?" Draco asked. "Because, I like muggle Christmas", Lux said, "You can use magic in the morning".
