Don't forget to tell me what you think.


"Sssh!" Narcissa said hushing Draco as she held the freshly made birthday cake done by the house elves. Draco held a black and silver freshly wrapped package, another chore done by the house elves as he tried to repress his urge to giggle by biting the inside of his cheek. Narcissa beamed at the five year old. "Do you remember what you say Draco?"

"Mhm!" Draco exclaimed. Narcissa used one hand to place a finger to her red lips. "Sssh!" she hushed him again.

"Sorry." Draco apologized. He held the gift even tighter to his tiny chest. "I say Happy Birthday Daddy. Right?" He said in a really quiet voice. Narcissa smiled and nodded. She turned the door knob and said. "Okay on the count of three-."

Before she could finish Draco ran inside the bedroom with the present out in front of him. "Happy birthday Dadddyyyyyy!" he exclaimed, waking up his sleeping father. Lucius opened his eyes sluggishly and sat up, resting his back against the pillows. "Thank you Draco." He said pushing his blonde hair out of his face. Draco smiled and handed him his present. He placed the gift on the pillow beside him and picked up Draco placing him on the bed. Narcissa chuckled and strolled in holding the birthday cake.

"Ready, sweetie?" Narcissa asked Draco.

"Yes, Mummy." Draco replied with a nod.

"Alright. One…two…three." Narcissa counted. "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Daddy. Happy birthday to you!" After the two of them sang Draco clapped his hands and Narcissa placed the cake next to his gift and kissed him on the lips. "Thank you." He said still half asleep, but smiling.

"How old are you Daddy?" Draco asked.

"Old." Lucius replied his arm wrapped around Narcissa's waist and feeling up and down her back thinking of the perfect gift he could get for his birthday. "Did you do all this?"

"Of course darling." Narcissa replied kissing him again. She spoke only an inch away from his lips. "With the help of the house elves." He pulled her into another kiss. "Ew!" Draco said with scrunched face. "Open your present Daddy."

"There's no rush Draco." Lucius said, unwrapping his arm from around his wife and picking up the present placing it on his lap. He pulled at the green sting binding it together and pulled at the black paper. Inside was a velvet cloak with silver snakes as buttons inside was red silk. "Merlin's beard…" he said as inspected the cloak.

"Do you like it?" Narcissa said kissing his cheek.

"Of course."

"I helped pick it out!" Draco said with a smile on his face. Lucius ruffled his hair.

"I can't wait to see you wear it." Narcissa said wrapping her arm around Lucius. "Happy birthday." Lucius pulled her into a kiss. As Lucius looked into his beautiful wife's eyes and thought of everything he was going to do to her when Draco went to sleep he heard the sound of lips smacking and the rustling of covers. Draco had already dug his tiny fist into the cake and started eating by the handfuls. Narcissa chuckled and ruffled his hair. "Silly boy."
