Day 8 for Countdown to Christmas

Prompt:

Mulled Wine Scented Yankee Candle

Disclaimer: I'm always disclaiming things, I swear...

"Are you ready for your first Christmas shopping experience?" Hermione asked, turning to Draco with a wink.

He rolled his eyes, putting his hands in his pockets. "For your information I have done my own shopping once or twice," Draco drawled.

"Yes, but never at Harrods. It's a whole different kind of ballpark here. Let me know if you're feeling... overwhelmed."

"Please," he scoffed, "I'm never overwhelmed or underwhelmed. I like to stay just whelmed."

Hermione cock an eyebrow up at Draco, "I don't think that's a thing -"

"Woah," she was interrupted, "That's a lot of people. And lights."

She smirked, but didn't comment. "Welcome to one of the most expensive places in London. Now let's get some shopping done...' she muttered and looked down at the list she had written. "Right," Hermione started, "For Dad I was thinking I would get him his own broom, but we'll have to wait to go to Diagon Alley for that. I read that as long as someone magical is riding the broom, then a Muggle can tag along for the ride as well. As much as I hate heights -"

"I'll ride with him," Draco shrugged. Hermione smiled up at him and stood on her tip-toes to kiss him on the cheek.

"And that's why I love you," she joked.

"Well, he'd probably want to learn from a fantastic Quidditch player anyways."

"Mhmm," she rolled her eyes, "Why can't you just admit you're doing something nice for someone instead of ruining it by making yourself come off as a prick?"

He grinned and took one of his hands out of his pocket, using it to wrap around Hermione's shoulders. Pulling her in closer, he kissed the top of her head. "Wouldn't want to ruin my reputation of being one of the most egotistical Wizards in the world, now would I?" Draco then peered down at Hermione's list.

"You're getting Luna candles? That's a bit... dull."

Hermione sighed, "Muggles make scented candles, and the one I'm getting her is 'Mulled Wine scented, from Yankee Candle. I'm honestly not quite sure why the Wizarding World doesn't have anything like this. It's hard to believe how behind it is compared to the Muggle World."

"We're not that behind."

Hermione gave Draco an exasperated look and opened her mouth, "We're still using torches for light, as well as quills to write with. Please, enlighten me on how modern that is."

"Yes, well I really doubt that they could figure out how to levitate someone or shrink and enlarge objects at will."

"Out of the hundreds of things we can do by using magic, you pick those examples? That's literally First Year stuff!"

"That's the point!" Draco exclaimed, "Muggles can't even do the simplest of magic!"

"And I doubt you could do the simplest of cooking by using a microwave."

"What the bloody hell is a microwave?"

I hoped you enjoyed. Have a pleasant day :)
