This is also my first attempt to write in English so be nice please. 

It is the 23rd of December and you are not at home. Our son asked a few hours ago where his Daddy is, I didn't know what to answer.

I'm sitting here by myself and wonder if you will come back this time. A feeling deep inside me tells me that there is indeed something wrong. Of all men in this world I had to marry an Auror, but I think it surprised you yourself when you took this way of life.

Who would have thought that our life would have such a funny twist?

As children we didn't even like each other, yes I'm sure that I'm right when I say that there was a strong hate on both parts.  

In our seventh year in Hogwarts finally everything changes and the whole world turned upside down. It was the year to decide on which road to travel right into the war.  Some of us chose the dark path, among them were Vincent Crabbe, Lavender Brown and my own Brother. It broke my parent's hearts; they couldn't believe that their little boy now was the enemy. When I look back I can see the signs of his change: He stood always in the shadow of his brothers, later he stood in Harry's Shadow. Everything he does to prove himself, one of his brothers did before and better. Later all eyes were upon Harry and nobody looked at the redheaded boy. They always said:" Yes, you are the little brother of Bill-Charlie-Percy-Fred-George…." Or"Aren't you the friend of Harry Potter?"

But the biggest surprise was when Hermione and Severus finally let the Vail fall and pronounced their engagement on the Graduation ball. Dumbledore himself couldn't cover his astonishment. Mc Gonagall passed out and although there were nearly two hundred people in the great hall there was first dead silence until Dumbledore breaks the ban and claps his hand to applause the couple.

Our road was far rockier. Not because our relationship was a "forbidden" one, but because of our families histories. Your father tries to force you into the dark and you were dangerous near to get the dark mark burned on your arm. We run away this night and married in a Mugglechurch. Outside the rain was falling down in cascades and it was stormy. We promised each other that our love will last for eternity and that nobody will ever part us. We were together that night and it was all that counts. The  prove of this night lays now upstairs in his bed and sleeps peacefully, dreaming innocent dreams of broomsticks and chocolate frogs.

We hadn't money, for me it was nothing new, but you had to give up all the comforts you had up grown with.  

I couldn't have chosen a better husband than you my beloved Draco. Tonight you are again out on the road to fight Voldemort and his servants, among them your own father and my brother. I fear that one day you will not come home to embrace me and kiss Daniel goodnight.

Maybe it's only the emotionally thought of a pregnant woman. I don't know.

Tomorrow Hermione will visit with Eileen. The children will play and we will arrange everything for Christmas Eve.  One could never know what the future holds…
