Severus Snape hates Christmas. And his first Christmas as four-year-old Harry Potter's guardian won't change his mind. Or so he thinks.

Remus sighs and runs a hand over his face, pressing in a little like it might relieve some of his tension headache. “For the last time,” he says, though he knows it’s useless. Sirius used to do things over and over again after ‘the last time’ just to spite him. “You are not sleeping on the floor.”
