It was my twenty-seventh birthday, and I was nibbling away at my favorite.

A vanilla cupcake with pink icing and a dash of rainbow sprinkles.

I was also flipping through the mail.

Taxes, taxes, taxes, Ministry pamphlet, taxes…

Hm. Oh, here! A birthday card from Harry and Ginny.

Oh, and one from Lavender Brown and her husband!

I smiled.

Then, the world went black and I felt fingers over my eyes.

"Guess who, 'Mione!"

Under the warm hands, I rolled my eyes and replied, "Now, who would be stupid enough to believe I'd fall for that voice. Oh, I know! Draco!"

The lights were restored, and I spun around and smashed my cupcake in his face.

I looked at my sputtering husband, and laughed.

"I- I- I-"

"You-you-you what, sweetie?" I asked.

"That was uncalled for!" he spat, crossing his arms.

"Hard to take you seriously with pink icing on your face," I said.

He wiped most of it away, and I said, "Oh, you missed a spot."

I leaned in and kissed him.

"There," I said.

"Mommy?"

I spun around to see our little 4 year old daughter.

"Were you and Daddy having a food fight?" she asked.

"Yes, baby girl."

"Daddy, you lost!"

We laughed and I picked her up.

She threw her arms around my neck and said, with a huge smile, "Happy birthday, mommy!"


A cute little oneshot that came to me yesterday.
