by whythehellnothavefun

Summary:

Draco is used to getting Christmas presents. His girlfriend gets him the best presents. This year, her presents are a bit… odd? Or at the least, likely to annoy his parents.

Notes:

Disclaimer: I don't own any characters blah blah blah owned by JK Rowling blah blah blah don't sue me.

Characters acting slightly OOC (Out Of Character), implied Dramione.

One chapter will be released each day until Christmas Day.

This will be based on an Irish Christmas song called “Christmas Countdown” by Frank Kelly. It can be found on Spotify and YouTube. Please listen to it before reading the rest of this fanfiction. It isn’t the cleanest of songs (if you decide to listen to it in work, WEAR HEADPHONES / EARBUDS) and is over five minutes long, but once you get over the few slang words, it’s a song that will leave you crying with laughter.

Chapter 1: Day 1 (December 13th)

Dear Hermione,

 

I was pleased to receive your gift with the note telling me to “open upon receipt”. I thought the muggles liked to open presents on Christmas Day? Father was surprised when (what we later found out was) a partridge and a pear tree Unshrunk themselves in the Drawing Room. After attempting every spell we know to get rid of it, Father admitted he may have been wrong about Muggleborns.

 

Mother decided the bird had grown on her and started training it to become her postal bird. Her attempts have been unsuccessful so far, but the bird has developed an annoying habit of… defecating whenever someone enters the room. Did you realise that when you put an Anti-Vanishing charm on the bird, it would also affect our attempts to clean up after it?

 

Yours with affection,

Draco.
