Countdown to Christmas Drabble/Oneshot Competition!: Day 13 - Decorating the Christmas tree

Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter.

"I don't know why you always insist we decorate this thing ourselves, Roddy," Bellatrix whined as she hung a large gold ornament on the nearest branch of the tree in front of her.

Rodolphus just grinned as he came up around her, his body pressed against her back, rested his chin on her shoulder and placed his own ornament above hers. "Because it's tradition, Bella. And it's nice for the two of us to do something together."

She pouted, ignoring the warm feeling that rose in her chest as he stood there, playing down the effect his cologne had on her. Instead, she said, "But we could get the house-elves to do this, or even use magic."

"That ruins the fun, Bella," he said as he stepped away to pick up another ornament, this one in the shape of a flying hippogriff, and handed it to her.

She took the ornament from him before she moved around the other side of the tree. "If you wanted something to do together, then there are other things than decorating a stupid tree."

He leaned around the tree at her and said, "Going on a raid together is not my idea of fun, Bella."

She placed the hippogriff among the branches and then came over to him, she now hugging him around his chest from behind. She took a deep inhale, his cologne messing with her head and making everything fuzzy. He always did smell wonderful. She leaned up on her toes to say into his ear, "I was talking something else, something a bit more... exciting." She ended with a nibble on his ear lobe.

Rodolphus turned around in her arms and placed his hands on her cheeks, pulling her mouth to his. His kisses were always rough and forceful, but she knew he was always in control, always reading her wants and needs. He pulled away, his hands still on her face, and asked playfully, "What did you have in mind, my dear?"

Bellatrix gave him a wicked grin before grabbing one of his hands and pulling him towards their bedroom. They could finish the silly tree later.
