Remus carefully untied the package from the owl’s leg. Then he gave the bird a treat and watched him fly away before carrying the brightly wrapped parcel into the next room to share with Severus.
Severus raised an eyebrow at the gaudy, red foil and sparkling, gold bow. “What did Molly send this time?”
“How’d you know it was from Molly?” asked Remus.
“We’ve already received gifts from Harry and Minerva, and who but a Gryffindor would wrap a package in paper and ribbon that you could see from space?”
Remus frowned. “It’s not that bright.”
Severus simply shook his head. “If you say so. It is from Molly though, isn't it?”
“Yes,” Remus admitted, “and according to the card, we’re supposed to open it right away.”
Severus brightened. “Then it must be food.”
Remus opened the box to find it full of white chocolate fudge laced with red and green sprinkles. On top of each neatly cut square was an intricate design done in moulded sugar.
“These must have taken hours to make. I almost hate to eat them,” said Remus as he admired Molly’s handy work.
“Speak for yourself,” said Severus as he popped one of the morsels into his mouth. “Mmmm... Delicious!”
