Hermione sighed and sunk lower in the bubbles. It had been a long day, but a good one. At work she had managed to get everyone into the meeting room for a solid four hours, and they had made excellent progress on the new legislation. Then she had come home to find that Ron and the kids were making pizza for dinner. It was a nice surprise, but Ron didn't actually know how to cook, so Hermione had had to offer her assistance in the preparation as well as make a salad to go with the meal. Still, Rose and Hugo had loved topping their own mini pizzas, and overall it had been an enjoyable evening. Finally, Hermione helped the kids finish up their Christmas thank you cards, something she had been chivying them to do since New Year's. Ron was putting them to bed now while Hermione took advantage of the bubble bath that had come in her stocking.

There was a knock at the door. "Come in." called Hermione.

Ron poked his head in. "The kids are asleep." he announced as he entered. "You look bloody gorgeous."

"You can't even see me, I'm beneath the bubbles." retorted Hermione.

"I can see your beautiful face." Ron replied. "I brought you some wine."

Hermione reached for it. "Mmmmm, you know me so well. Care to join me?"

"I have a glass in the kitchen."

She shifted, revealing herself. "That's not what I meant."

He was naked in seconds.
