[Harry Potter] Christmas one-shot (Part 1)

First of all, I'd like to apologize for being such an awful person, I've disappeared for a long time, and I know that you might be angry and that's normal.

But I couldn't keep going with my normal writing after classes finished... I was worn, and I've felt as if the school killed my creativity and the happiness that I had every time I wrote a new story, also, add to that the fact that I was banned from AO3 and also, the fact that HP fanfiction archive is going to disappear just made things worse, all the work, the effort, the time... I've lost everything.

My anxiety kicked in and I've lacked the confidence that I needed to keep writing, so, my therapist suggested for me to take some time off everything, and get back to writing until I'm ready and... Today I woke up and I've felt ready.

Tonight I bring you the first part of the Christmas one-shot that was decided from the poll that I've made at the start of the month, the second part will be posted on New years or maybe sooner because I've realized that I had too many ideas and I was going to feel awful if I leave them behind, please enjoy it...

Happy Christmas everyone, I hope that you and your loved ones had a good time even during these difficult times that we're currently in, love you all!

Title: Christmas gift (Part 1)

Summary: Harry was expecting this Christmas with his mother to be something normal and calm, he wasn’t expecting anything weird happening, this was going to be the first Christmas that they would celebrate after he graduated from Hogwarts, but things get a little bit suspicious the moment Fleur and Daphne Greengrass joined their little celebration, is there a hidden motive behind this action from his mother?

Pairing: Harry/Lily Evans/Fleur Delacour/Daphne Greengrass

Harry was happy, he was going to celebrate Christmas with his mother, he had indeed been invited by some of his friends to celebrate with them but Harry wanted to spend this special time just with his mother, if it wasn’t for her, the school could have been hell for him, he graduated this year and was already on the Auror corps training to become one, his life was just starting and he couldn’t be happier than he was right now.

Right now, he was looking at himself in a mirror, he was just finishing the last details to his clothes, he was wearing a pair of blue jeans, white shoes, and a red sweater with the figure of a Christmas tree, the sweater was enchanted so the top could shine, and then, he suddenly heard someone knocking on his door, he moved as fast as he could to open the door and then he smiled as he saw the person that previously knocking.

It was his mother and she looked stunning, she was barely in her forties and yet, she looked fantastic, it’s no surprise that Lily has tons of fans due to her looks and Harry can’t help but feel angry at the people that are having dirty thoughts about his mom but still, he tries his best to not get too angry, he knows that his mother will always remain faithful to his deceased father, who sacrificed his life so he and his mother could live.

His mother was wearing a red dress that accented her figure, the dress reached on her knees and she was also wearing black high heels, her hair was arranged perfectly and her lips were as red as blood right now, she was smiling at him and he couldn’t but gulp.

There was something that no one knows about him, the reality is that Harry has been lusting after his mother since he was a teenager, it was hard to blame him though, living with the beautiful redhead has caused an effect on the way he looks at her, it makes him feel guilty but now that he’s already an adult he has finally stopped denying the fact that he has been feeling like that towards his mother for a long time.

- Hey Harry… Are you ready? – Asked Lily and Harry stared at her cleavage for a few moments.

And then, he realized what he was doing and quickly shook his head and looked at his confused mother.

- Oh right… Let’s get the dinner ready, mom! – Harry said enthusiastically and Lily smiled.

Lily grabbed one of his arms and they descended little by little from upstairs, they reached the kitchen and Harry started to arrange the plates, it was going to be easy, they just needed two or at least that’s what he thought, he suddenly realized that his mother had placed two more plates.

- Oh… Sorry that I’ve forgotten to mention it Harry but… I invited some friends I hope that you don’t mind me doing that – Lily told him and he felt confused but he just smiled at his mother making her realize that he had no problem with that.

They continued arranging the table when they suddenly heard someone knocking on the door, Lily smiled and stopped what she was doing.

- They’re here! – she said and Harry couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable.

The way his mother was acting made it looks as if she was waiting for a guy or something like that, Harry was getting jealous, it was stupid, he knows, but he couldn’t help but feel like that, he sighed and remained in the kitchen while his mother opened the door, he was concentrating on the plates and the food when suddenly his mother came back.

- Look who’s here Harry! – Lily said happily and the younger man looked in her direction.

He was expecting to find Snape, he knows that his mother and he were friends since they were kids so, that was something that has been bothering him for the last few years but then, his eyes widened, there were two other persons that he wasn’t expecting to find here, two blonde women were walking alongside his mother and they were smiling at him.

- Hey Harry – Said one of them with a French accent, the woman was wearing a light blue dress that seemed to sparkle, the dress ended above her knees she was also wearing white high heels that made her look taller than she already was.

- Fleur! – Harry said before gulping.

- And don’t forget about me! – The other blonde said and she caught Harry’s attention.

This girl was shorter than Fleur, but she looked beautiful without a doubt, she is wearing a white tight dress that accents her big breasts and wide hips, she turned around and surprised him with a smile after she did that, Harry couldn’t help but feel mesmerized by her amazing rear and long legs.

- Daphne! – Harry said with a slight blush on his face – What are you two girls doing here? – He was surprised by the sudden turn of events.

- Well… Professor Potter invited us to come here tonight... – Daphne said calmly.

- Yes… She told us that she wanted your best friends to be here to celebrate this special occasion! – Fleur added and Harry couldn’t help but look at his mother for a few moments.

Lily smiled weakly at him and shrugged her shoulders, Harry smiled at her.

- Thank you, mom… This is a great gift, I appreciate it – Harry walked and hugged his mother.

- Oh Harry… This is just starting… We have a surprise for you… But you will know what is all about after twelve! – Lily winked at him after she said this.

Harry was left confused, he was trying hard to think what his mother had planned for him, but he decided to not think about it so much, he was hungry after all, there was no space for other things more than food and catching up with his friends.

Lily clapped her hands and food appeared on their plates, pork ribs with mashed potatoes and gravy, there were many types of bread and also salads, Fleur surprised them all with a bottle of wine that she got directly from her family’s collection.

They chatted and ate calmly, nothing was rushing them, they were celebrating this night happily and it seemed as if things were going to be like that the whole night and Harry was happy because of that.

His story with the two women that his mother invited is kind of interesting, depending on who you ask.

Starting with Daphne, to talk about their relationship we need to go back in back in time, to be more precise to the times where she and Harry were kids, even though Daphne’s parents were purebloods and were in the Slytherin house, they didn’t support the dark lord, they remained neutral during those days but after hearing that the dark lord was killed officially by Harry, they decided to put their support on Dumbledore and their allies.

They joined the order of the phoenix, even though Voldemort had been destroyed, they were still paranoid, and even to this day, they reunite to discuss and have a backup plan in case the dark lord returns somehow.

During those meetings when the adults discussed those kinds of things, the kids were in other rooms playing, that’s the situation that led Harry and Daphne to meet each other and since that day they became best friends.

As years passed by they got closer and closer thanks to the order meetings, Daphne started to know better Harry’s friends, everyone thought that things were great between them, but they were fearing the day when both of them would have to get into Hogwarts, they knew that Harry and Daphne were supposed to be in different houses.

And they weren’t wrong, Daphne was instantly placed in Slytherin and Harry was close to getting in too, but in the end, the hat put him in Gryffindor, and now, they were supposed to be rivals, people thought that the friendship between Harry and Daphne was going to change forever, but they couldn’t be more wrong even if they tried.

Daphne and Harry continued to talk with each other, and no one dared to question this because he was the goddamn boy who lived, the one who killed the dark lord, if he was capable of doing that as a baby then the students were convinced that he could destroy them using only his look.

Harry, Daphne, Ron, and Hermione were inseparable, they shared many classes, they did projects together and it wasn’t a surprise when things started to get awkward between the two teenagers around their sixth year, everyone thought that they were going to end up together, that was something to be expected from them but it turns out that it didn’t happen.

For some strange reason, neither of them had the guts, to be honest about their real feelings, neither of them questioned what they felt about the other, in their minds there was nothing more than a lifelong friendship, and Harry and Daphne were scared of ruining that relationship.

- Cheers! – Fleur said and they clashed their glasses with wine.

- Cheers! – The others said and then they drank from their glasses.

- Oh… This tastes amazing! – Harry said before he stared at the glass and then he looked at Fleur who smiled at him.

Harry blushed the moment he stared at her lips, they looked so tempting and Harry wanted to do many things to them, but he quickly shook his head, it seems like he wasn’t very good when it comes to alcohol.

- Thank you, Harry… I’m glad you like it, that’s from a private reserve from my family… It has been aged for twenty years! – Fleur winked at him and he couldn’t help but blush before taking another sip from his glass.

Fleur Delacour, she's known as the most beautiful woman in the wizarding world, not only by Britannic magazines since she lives in the UK after she graduated from her school, she has gotten that title from magazines around the world, it’s not hard to see why many people are crazy for her, it has been said that she’s the closest thing to the goddess Venus, or at least that’s the way many magazines have described her, after all, it is said that Venus was the first veela.

Beautiful, sharp, smart, those are the best words that you can use to describe Fleur, but overall, Harry can refer to her also as a good friend, many people are intimidated by her beauty which is kind of sad for Harry because they lose the change to know Fleur better, but that’s fine, people would never be able to understand Fleur in the way Harry does, or at least he thinks it’s just like that.

Their relationship right now is amazing, but it hasn’t been like that since the start, during the tri-wizard tournament, Harry had a bad encounter with the girl, she was alone and for some kind of casualty, Harry found her on the balcony, it seems like she was scared because she has been picked as the champion for her school.

Harry was thankful that Dumbledore placed an age restriction on the goblet of fire because if that wasn’t the case, he was convinced that he was going to be forced to participate, and seeing the state in which Fleur was at that time, that sight made him feel grateful that he wasn’t in her place.

Going back to their first encounter, Harry tried to get away so he could leave the girl alone with her thoughts and emotions, but she heard a noise, Harry stepped into something and that alerted the girl, she snapped at him and thought of him as a stalker, Harry tried his best to defend himself but she didn’t believe him, in the end, it didn’t matter what he tried she didn’t believe in him.

- Then go to hell! – Those were the words that Harry said before disappearing.

He snapped at her too and that left the veela stunned, not even her parents had spoken to her like that, she was impressed that Harry was immune to her allure and that caught her attention.

They avoided each other for weeks and the day of the first challenge, Harry decided to wish luck to the Hogwarts champion, his friend Cedric, and then, he found Fleur there.

The veela was nervous but in the end, she apologized and he did the same thing, he admitted that he was angry and he didn’t think twice about what to say, they ended up smiling at the other and accepting their apologies, they smiled at the other and Harry wished her luck.

Fleur joined Harry and his group of friends as she was mostly alone due to her allure, and for some reason that Harry didn’t understand, Daphne and Fleur seemed to have a rivalry which was weird considering their age gap.

The end of his fourth year came and Harry was sad that he wouldn’t be able to see his friend Fleur again, but one day, she appeared in his home, she surprised him telling him that she was moving to live in the UK, and she was going to work here just to get what she wanted, Harry never knew what she wanted, in the end, he tried to support her as much as he could, and that’s why she’s here tonight.

- We’re getting closer guys – Lily mentioned and Harry quickly realized what his mother meant.

Harry opened the bottle of champagne that Daphne brought and he served the ladies a glass filled with the drink to each one of them, they were waiting for the countdown to midnight, it was close to Christmas and Harry didn’t know why, but he could feel that the women were a little nervous and that was making him feel a little worried, but once the countdown started, he forgot about that idea.

- Ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one… Happy Christmas everyone! – Everyone said and they clashed their glasses against the other as a sign of celebration.

Harry was delighted, he loved this celebration, they were sharing some appreciating words with their significant others and they were happy as they did it, they said nice words to the others and despite the fact of their rivalry, Daphne and Fleur were cool until Lily clarified her mouth.

- Harry… Do you remember that I told you before that we had a nice surprise for you, Harry? – Asked Lily calmly and Harry nodded – Well… I hope you enjoy this – She finished and with the movement of her hands and a wandless spell, Lily and the other women’s dresses disappeared.

Harry’s eyes widened at the sight, the girls were now in their sexy underwears and they seemed a little nervous but also, they were curious about how Harry was going to react to this, Harry gulped at the amazing sight and he couldn’t help but think that he was hallucinating, this was too good to be true.
