two - giggles

They sat on the sofa in front of the fire, and everything felt warm but not too warm. It was instead that fuzzy feeling, that one that made one's cheeks burn with liveliness and eyes shine with glee.

Draco's head suddenly slumped against Astoria's shoulder. She turned her head and found his eyes closed.

"Hey, don't fall asleep," she whispered, and he opened them halfway.

"What—mhm," he mumbled. "But I'm tired."

"Not already," Astoria said, and he couldn't stop the giggles erupting from her mouth. "It's only ten o'clock."

"Not my fault that it's exhausting shopping with you." Draco's voice was still slow and his hand rested completely relaxed in Astoria's, but his eyes had regained some of their light.

"C'mon, it wasn't that exhausting." Astoria poked a finger in Draco's ribs and he jolted.

"Hey—," he began, but Astoria crawled over and sat on his lap and silenced him by putting her lips on his.

"I think you should stay awake a little longer, huh?" she asked when they both had to catch their breath a while later.

"Ah, okay then…" Draco grinned and let his hands wander up Astoria's back underneath her shirt. "A little longer."
