All I Want For Christmas Is You

Day 3- Holiday music 

The place swamped more and more as the snowfall grew stronger minute by minute. It was almost as if a blizzard had come but it was just typical Britain snowfall. Harry served minute after minute, keeping a content smile over his face as he served to people after people even though his feets were killing him and his back was practically dying to be stretched out but with the snow outside and the Holiday season overhead he barely had anytime, not even to stretch and like a cherry on top the new waiter just dropped the muffin and the coffee of a customer. 

“ You look at the counter, i’ll clean the- your mess” Harry told the new waiter and picked up the mop and the dustpan. The waiter scurried away in a slight fear that he was going to lose his job and went off to the counter like Harry had said so.

Harry stretched his back as he cleaned the floor along with the spill and took it to the back and stood there for a few moments, letting his exhaustion wear down a little but not even a second later the same waiter came in and asked for Harry’s help. 

“ Its one heck of a day” Harry mumbled to himself as he followed the waiter to the counter. 

“ How can I serve you today sir ?” Harry asked kindly

“ I ordered a blueberry muffin, instead I got a vanilla cupcake and I definitely did not order a latte yet somehow I have this “ The customer slid Harry the order the waiter had messed up. 

Harry looked at the waiter who held an apologetic look. He shook his head. 

“ Here- take this- chocolate brownies are our specialty- on the house and i’ll be right with you with your order” Harry easily said.

The customer smiled hesitantly at Harry then went back to his seat.

" Olli- I thought you were getting better" Harry scolded him a Little.

Olli, the new waiter Apologised again " I'll take the correct order"

Harry sighed then served the correct order on the plate and made him deliver.

He was about to tend the next customer when his phone kept on the counter rang, "Ferret". He pushed the ignore button instantly and rendered the needs of the customer but five more times in a row made him impatient and he was forced to leave the counter and to go in the back and pick up the call.

" what ?" Harry snapped lightly.

" Wow- wonder if every boyfriend treats their boyfriends like this or is it just me- a special treatment" Draco muttered.

" Draco- dear I don't have the time- I'm running on a very tight schedule- can this wait ?" Harry asked impatiently.

" I- Nevermind " Draco replied disappointed.

Harry sighed knowing he had ruined whatever Draco was about to say and even his mood.

" I'm sorry but it's just, the cafe is filled with people and the snow isn't helping either- I'm gonna be stuck here for a long time I suppose- I wish I could come home early"

" But this was supposed to be our dinner night" Draco whined a little

" I know- and I know I promised but I'm stuck- I wish I could do something but- yeah one second I'll be there- yeah- I wish I could come early, I really do but I'm just stuck " Harry explained.

Draco sighed on the call " I understand- I wish you could make time- it feels like you have a much more stressful job than I have when I am the one who have to look after students making dangerously new potions everyday "

Harry smiled to himself " I love you"

" I love you too" then eventually unwillingly they cut the call and Harry got back to work.

Almost 45 minutes later of still ever-growing crowd and serving back and forth, billing and cleaning the mess, the door chimed again and Harry had almost lost it if it wasn't for the familiar man turning the sign board of the cafe to closed.

" we can't be closed yet" Olli Whispered to Harry.

Harry shook his head and the man turned around and walked right upto the counter.

" Since you couldn't make time for me- I came for you- this goes two ways " Draco smiled at Harry.

He shook his head at the absurdity but he couldn't deny that seeing Draco had lit up his day more than anything had today.

" listen up everyone- this- all of you- tonight is a special night with my beloved boyfriend but apparently he couldn't make time for me- but I could and here I am and I know this is a very crowded place and everything but God- this is getting dull- so-"

" Karaoke " Olli whispered yelled.

Draco turned his head to Olli and nodded, smiling " jukebox- I know how much you love your work Harry but I want to be with you even if it means being with you here all night just watching you- so here I am even if you want to throw me out of the cafe but-" he paused and put in a quarter in the jukebox machine he bought, the song beginning to sing and Draco pointed his finger at Harry then sang along " All I want for christmas is you "

The place dissolved in short laughs and a warmer surrounding as Draco continued singing while watching Harry who was just leaning on the counter watching him sing his heart out. It wasn't long before Harry shook his head and jumped over the counter to Draco and pulled him closer by the scarf around his neck.

" You're an idiot you know that?"

" an idiot in love perhaps ?" Draco suggested.

Harry shook his head smiling " An idiot I love" and kissed Draco with everything he had, everything he had to hold himself back from the entire day and the love that ran in his body for Draco, all poured out into that one moment. The thing was that sometimes they can't make time for one another, Sometimes the work becomes too much that they end up not even seeing each other but no matter what happened or no matter what may come, Harry and Draco were sure of one thing, that Love doesn't just happen and end up in happy ever after. There are moments that hurt, there are moments that leads to fights, there are so many more moments of disappointment but instead of finding a reason to not be with each other, they'd run back home knowing that if love was somewhere for them, it was in each other, even if it meant that they had to work hard and put through a lot and they were proud to do whatever they could do be with each other, even if that singing in the middle of a busy cafe along to the Christmas songs. At the end of the day when they'd curl into each other, it would all be worth it.
