Trail to one day
Day 13 Secret Santa @hpdestress
He still have them all.
When Harry was in his first year at Hogwarts, away from his home, with people he barely knew and some he found strange, he had spent his Christmas at Hogwarts. Back then Harry was happier than he had been in a long time and was glad for a lot of givings he was given even if he didn't want some of them , he took them with grace and their love in those givings and kept it safe in a case or in his heart. It was then on his first Christmas at Hogwarts when he recieved an anonymous gift resting over his bed waiting to be opened. He had already opened the invisibility cloak before so he knew it couldn't be that, so, when he did open it and threw the wrappings aside he discovered it was a gift by a child, not more older than he was. The gift had been a paper Santa decorated with all sorts of glitter and a card with "Maybe one day", just that. Harry had kept it safely.
The next year when he had returned back from his Christmas break, there had been a box sitting over his pillow. He knew it then it was from the same Secret Santa as last year when he had opened the card and it was the same inscription. This time there were cookies in a box ( secret Santa had made it themself).
The next year Harry had been excited to see his gift from the secret santa even though he didn't who it was but when he came back from the Christmas strolling with Ron and Hermione, there wasn't a gift on his bed, underneath it, or around it or even his fellow mates bed. He looked for 3 days straight until it showed up the next day, a card with the same inscription and nothing more and a Stocking with Harry Potter crocheted over it. Harry found those customized presents cute.
The next year, that was 4th year he yet again was met with his present on the pillow right after he had returned from the break. At this point he didn't bother reading the card but did it anyways and found it extremely impressive how whoever it was had a beautiful calligraphy. That year he had received ear muffs with Christmas tree stitched over them. He wore them often.
During his 5th year after things had turned pretty upsetting, the gift was all he looked forward to upon returning to school and like the 3rd year the gift came in late and this time with an apology " Sorry, I had things " the apology card read. He left the same inscripted card at the bottom of the box and picked up the gift. That year he had recieved a handkerchief with Harry weaved over it riding the broomstick and a small Draco getting knocked over by him around the corner. It was a hilarious gift. It certainly kept him going a lot.
But when the 6th year happened, Harry had to wait an entire week before he received the present. There was no apology that time but the same card with the same inscription as every which Harry now felt bored off yet found it endearing at the same time and a mix tape of songs that claimed to have reminded whoever it was of Harry. He kept listening to them even after the war was over. It was a nice gesture.
The 7th year, he didn't recieve anything and plainly there was too much going on for him to either be worried about but the morning after Christmas Eve while they were in Dean's forest Harry had thought about it and late in the night when Hermione was asleep he had heard the mix tape again. It kept him sane.
The 8th year, he finally recieved a love letter signed by anonymous but vividly mentioned having been in love with Harry for so long; along with a sweater with H weaved over its front and the signature inscription card only this time there was a smile put after the words.
He still have them all, in a box that he looks at them every year and remembers his childhood and how it was among the best part of his childhood.
Today was one of those days when Harry was looking through the box of things again except for the H sweater which he was wearing and smiled at them. He suddenly felt two arms wrap around his Torso and a soft pair of lips attaching his neck and hummed.
" Old Christmas presents " His lover said.
Harry nodded smiling then after a moment of enjoying his embrace and silence he spoke up " you weren't very discrete you know"
Draco laughed softly behind him and pestered him with a kiss again " So you knew all along ?"
" Nope, around 3rd year. Only a post brat like you could've known how to crochet" Harry teased.
" At least appreciate my efforts" Draco complained playfully.
" thank you for these"
Harry turned just a little, kissing his cheek then gazed into his eyes " our one day came"
Draco smiled at him equally swooned and in love, nodded " Our one day came"
