For writerchicky1425, who wanted Lucius to be obsessed with cocoa.
Lucius shuffled into the Manor's kitchen, his fluffy slippers making a scratchy sound on the tile. He yawned and stretched, scratching his belly with one hand as he reached into the cupboard with his other.
Hm, this was strange. He didn't feel his can of imported cocoa powder. It was always on the second shelf, right next to the bag of marshmallows. He felt around some more, but still couldn't find it.
He grabbed his wand and tried summoning the container; nothing turned up. He raided every cupboard in the kitchen, but still couldn't find it.
A half hour later Draco came into the kitchen carrying a package in plain brown wrapping, rubbing his eyes.
"Stupid owl got confused and came to my window instead." He said, tossing the package on the counter where Lucius stood staring blankly at his empty mug and bag of marshmallows. "Aren't you going to open it? It's from Mexico. It's probably that chocolate stuff you get once a month."
Lucius' eyes widened and he slowly opened the package, his hands shaking with excitement by the time he peeled away the last of the packaging and got down to the small metal tin. He flipped open the lid and breathed in the heady scent of the powdered chocolate. Draco backed away from his father slowly and proceeded to run out of the kitchen and back up the stairs, to where he was out of the way and he was safe; his mother had told him about how his father got around the cocoa. You could even go as far as to say he was a tad obsessed with it.
A short time later found Lucius sitting by the fire, his mug filled to the brim with cocoa, small marshmallows bobbing on the surface. He took a long drink of the cocoa and smiled. Everything was a little better when the cocoa was around.
