Summary: Draco and Harry are set for some relaxing holiday moments at a cozy cottage retreat.



"I never thought you'd agree to this," said Harry. He was smiling up at his lover as he opened the door to the modest country cottage that was beautifully bedecked for Christmas.

"Why should you think that?" Draco asked, sounding surprised. "I promised you a relaxing holiday, didn't I?"

"Yes, you did," agreed Harry, leading the way into the magically-enlarged cottage. "More important, you promised yourself some relaxing holiday moments."

"Fame and fortune takes its toll," Draco sighed in mock despair. "I was in need of a quiet get away."

"Tosser," snorted Harry. These days, Harry kept a low profile, while Draco had forged a successful Quidditch career for himself. It was a running joke between them and among their friends that Harry was no longer known as The Boy Who Lived so much as Draco Malfoy's Boyfriend.

"Now that we have the entire weekend to ourselves, what shall we do first?" asked Draco. The gleam in his gray eyes spoke volumes as to what he'd like to do first.

"Let's take a bath," said Harry, his own eyes twinkling.

Draco's eyebrows rose. "A bath?" he echoed. "Did you not just take a shower this morning?"

"Yeah, but you haven't seen the bathroom in this place," Harry said. "Come on, I'll show you."

They toed off their shoes in the cozy living room, and Harry led the way to the master bedroom and into the luxurious en suite beyond.

Draco halted to look around, and he let out a low whistle. "This rivals any of the Manor's bathrooms," he said. There was a large, marble bathtub for two in one corner, and an equally large shower cubicle on the other side. The bathroom was carpeted in white, and a multitude of windows and skylights provided an unencumbered view of the pastoral countryside. To add a holiday touch, a small Christmas tree was stationed near the tub, festooned with white lights and decorations.

Harry flicked his wand at the tub, and it began filling with hot, fragrant water and frothy bubbles. He unzipped his jeans and stepped out of them, revealing plain white pants that still managed to look amazingly sexy on him.

Draco feasted his eyes on his lover, enjoying Harry's impromptu striptease.

Harry grasped the hem of his shirt and began tugging it upward, exposing the graceful line of his naked back. He paused and glanced at Draco over one shoulder. "Do you plan to join me?" he murmured.

"I think I should call my agent first," Draco replied with a sultry smile.

"Your agent?"

Draco nodded. "I should tell him I'm taking more time off," he said. "I want to spend at least a week here with you."
