Chapter Eight

Ever since the Malfoys had come over for dinner Draco had visited Alaya every day. He usually arrived right after breakfast and left late at night. She loved having the company. The two would spend their time together talking, playing wizard chess, playing Quidditch with Shane, and an array of other things.

Finally Christmas morning arrived Alaya was woken out of a peaceful sleep by the covers being yanked off her. The cold air hitting her skin startled her awake and she sat up in her bed screaming at Shane who was in hysterics. It wasn't till after her rant that she saw Draco in her room as well. Her face lit up as she jumped out of bed running to him throwing her arms around his neck.

"Happy Christmas." He whispered hugging her back and kissing the top of her head. "Happy Christmas Draco!" she squealed giving him a quick on the lips and nuzzled her head in his chest. "Well get dressed Alaya we're ready to open presents!" Shane yelled walking out the door. Alaya laughed and began digging through her dresser for clothes while Draco took a seat on her bed. Once finding what she wanted the went into her bathroom quickly changing.

When she emerged she was in jeans and a white tee shirt, even in clothes as plain as she was in she still took Draco's breath away. He smiled at her standing up as she walked over to him.

"You look great." He smiled running his hands down her sides. "Thanks. Now it's time for presents!" she squealed her eyes lighting up and grabbing Draco's hand dragging him down to the formal living room where the Christmas tree was and the floor all underneath it was covered in presents.

The two took a seat on the floor, they were the last to arrive, and presents were passed around to whom they were addressed to. Everyone was opening their gifts and thanking who they were from. Alaya was halfway through her gifts when she came across a small box in wrapped in green paper. It was addressed to her, from Draco. She looked up at him smiling and he returned it. She ripped over the paper and opened the box. Inside was a beautiful necklace, it was a beautiful white gold chain with the Ravenclaw crest as a charm. Draco removed the necklace from her hands and clasped it around her neck. She quickly kissed his cheek thanking him.

After everyone was through opening presents Draco helped Alaya take her presents to her room setting them in the corner for the time being. With her arms empty Alaya collapsed on her bed and Draco lay beside her and pulled her close to him and she put her head on his chest. Draco stroked her hair as she cuddled up to him, he had very much enjoying lying around with the girl the past few days, and it relaxed him.

Alaya sat up and walked over to the window, it was snowing, hard. She turned to Draco smiling and he got up and joined her. She turned her attention back to the snow falling outside as he came up behind her wrapping his arms around her waist. Alaya looked up at Draco smiling and he kissed her.

Alaya turned her body to face him so he could deepen the kiss. Draco ran his hands down her sides and took hold of her hips as she ran her fingers through the back of his hair. As they continued to kiss Draco backed herin to the wall and she pressed herself against him. He began kissing her jaw and down her neck and a small moan escaped her throat. When his lips returned to hers she pushed the two of them towards her bed. He collapsed onto his back breaking the kiss and pulled Alaya on top of him and the two continued kissing. It was then Alaya's turn to break the kiss as she kissed the hallow of his neck making it his turn to release a small moan. She then bit gently into his collarbone, sucking on it for a few minutes before returning her lips to his. After a few more minutes of this they were interrupted by someone clearing their throat.

Draco sat upright accidently throwing Alaya into the floor with a thud making whoever interrupted them laughed. When Alaya was oriented to what had happened she saw her brother in the doorway of her room laughing. A deep red rose in Alaya's cheeks as did Draco's as he helped her off the floor.

"Shane you prat I swear knock next time." Alaya said glaring at her brother. "I'll remember to do that." He snickered. "So does this mean the two of you are finally dating?" Shane asked eyeing the two people who stood in front of him. Alaya was clung to Draco who had his arms wrapped around her. "Uhm…" Alaya began getting redder. "Well I…" Draco stammered. "Well figure it out." Shane laughed walking out of the room and Draco tilted his head to look at Alaya.

"I uh." Alaya stammered. "Do you want to be my girlfriend?" Draco asked point blank shocking her. "Well of course I do." Alaya mumbled looking away. "What was that love?" Draco smirked. "Yes I want to be your girlfriend." She said her face remaining red. "Well then Miss Livingston I guess it won't matter if I do this." He smirked kissing her neck making another small moan escape her throat. "Mr. Malfoy you are filled with too much lust." She giggled.
