Oh Christmas Tree
Hermione Granger walked slowly into the ballroom that she had helped to decorate in preparation for that evening’s M&S Industries Festive Ball. Her eyes shone with unshed tears, her tissue in her hand was crushed, already wet from crying.
“Why the tears my dear, you have done such a superb job, the whole ballroom is an absolute delight!” Beamed Lucius Malfoy as he stepped from behind the magnificent ice sculpture of a peacock.
“Yes Miss Granger, even I have to admit, the room is decorated beyond my expectations and do approve that the mixture of Muggle and magical comes together perfectly,” agreed Severus Snape as he stepped from around the other side of the bird.
Through her tears she did not appear to notice both men’s clothing was rather dishevelled and their skin flushed.
“Miss Granger,” Started Lucius moving in closer, he darted a look across to Severus. They both realised something was wrong with their senior brewer.
Lucius guided Hermione into a chair, he gently asked,”Hermione, what is upsetting you so, surely it is not anything to do with tonight’s celebration?”
She shook her head, her curls brushing across Lucius’ skin. Severus sat at her other side and reached over and lifted up one of her hands into his and gave it a knowing squeeze.
She sniffed, as Lucius leaned over and wiped at her eyes with his linen handkerchief. Her chin wobbled as she blurted out what she had known for a long while now.
“He dumped me, he does not wish to be friends with me ever again.”
Both men sighed with relief. The three times married Ron Weasley had come back onto the scene the previous month and soon with the help from his mate Harry Potter had snuck under her defences and became her friend once more.
“I had to use a stunner on him last night. Why is it so hard for him to understand the word NO?” She broke down in front of the wizards.
“He is no gentleman,” Lucius said, he pressed her hand to his lips and soothed her by kissing her cheek. “Do you wish us to kill him for you?”.
“Yes,” said Severus as he wrapped an arm around her, “I know how to dispose of a body and no one would ever find him.”
She smiled at them both and knew her employers were also her friends, they had looked out for her and she was annoyed at being fooled once again by Ron. She only ever wanted to be friends with him, he had lied to her yet again. He had only wanted to get into her knickers, she had refused his attempts and his anger at her and his abusive words had left a sour taste in her mouth.
Her mind was wide open and Severus could not fail to catch a glimpse of what the redhead had done to her.
“That little bastard…” He stood up ready to act.
But her hand shot out and grasped at his shirt.
“No, Severus, he is not worth it.” She smiled at him and took his hand firmly in hers and shook it encouraging him to sit back down.
He did, she rewarded him with a kiss.
“My dear, you do know that we hate seeing you in such distress and …” Lucius stopped as he too was given a kiss on his cheek.
Both wizards shared a look over her shoulder and gave the other a little nod.
“Hermione,” started Severus
“Hermione, “ repeated Lucius.
“We both have seen you so distressed in recent days and both of us want to let you know that we both do care for you and we would do anything for you.”
“By that,”Severus added, “We do mean anything!”. He wiggled his eyebrows at her. She chuckled.
“You know we both care for you, my dear.” Lucius said bluntly.
“Yes, we do, deeply.”
“But I know how close you two are.” She glanced back and forth at her best friends. She did love them both, they had become family to her.
They had never been able to keep their relationship a secret from her. Ever since Lucius had lost his wife just after the war and fallen to pieces, Severus had stepped in to support his best friend.
Hermione enjoyed the close working relationship she had with both men, they were a tight working unit, she did not wish to spoil it.
Severus gently cradled her cheek with one hand turning her head towards him. He leaned in and gently pressed a loving kiss to her lips. Lucius followed suit turning her face and kissing her then licking his lips afterwards enjoying the flavour of his lover on her lips.
“Do you not want us my dear?”
Lucius put on his doleful puppy dog look and his grey eyes began to glisten.
Hermione gasped, he did want her, she turned to face Severus and he too looked into her eyes, an open book allowing a rare glimpse into his mind.
“You want me? Both of you?”
“Yes,” both men replied in unison.
“I can share.” Suggested Lucius.
“As can I,” Severus said with a wink, adding, “you can watch if you like.”
Hermione broke into loud delighted laughter.
Lucius’ face fell.
Severus rolled his eyes and gave Lucius a slap on the arm.
“That means she likes it.”
Hermione lunged at Severus and grabbed at his shirt with both hands and hauled him down for a kiss.
Lucius watched on, as she kissed Severus, she was gentle at first then her tongue slipped inside his mouth deepening the kiss. He smiled as his lover took control of their little witch and tugged her in close, his hands gripping her bum.
Lucius watched, his own body hardening at the sight of his lover being snogged by another. He never realised it could be such a turn on.
Hermione broke the kiss and turned to face Lucius. Severus looked dazed as his eyes had glazed over. Her attention now was turned fully towards Lucius.
She moved as fast as a vampire and attacked his mouth. Her arms snaked around his neck and her body flush up against his. She had her fingers deep in his hair as she let out a little gasp on noticing his erection that spurred her along.
Severus watched as Hermione ground against Lucius and kissed him deeply. He felt left out, then smiled, as he moved in behind Hermione and began to kiss her neck, confident that he would not be rejected.
Lucius paused to take in breath only to be kissed unexpectedly by severus. Hermione continued to rub herself up against both men. She never knew that having two hard cocks rubbing at her front and back at the same time could be so fucking hot. She wanted them both.
She felt like a cat that had got the cream, and not just any cream but gold top at that!
That night the party goers were left stunned when three people walked in, all eyes could not but stare at the trio as they stepped across the marble floor .
Severus and Lucius were wearing a mix of magical and muggle designed formal suits. Severus liked dark as Lucius liked green. In between them in a black dress that dazzled with little green jewels strode Hermione Granger. In her hair was a peacock styled headdress that was subtle as well as ornate, on her feet were a pair of black high heel stilettos.
The crowd gasped when Hermione turned around as the back of her dress was green with dark jewels. It was a magical dress that informed everyone that she was with both men.
They made their way around the party, drank some magical champagne and ate some of the delicious nibbles.
Hermione had put a lot of effort into organising the party. She had coordinated everything and it looked fantastic. So why was she not enjoying herself?
She glanced over at a young blonde witch eyeing up Lucius and a sudden wave of anger surged through her. She shared a look with Severus and both went in for the kill.
The witch ran off crying, scratching at herself and also blowing on her fingers. She kept turning back to glare at Hermione who gave her a little wave.
“That was rather naughty of both of you,” said Lucius.
Both Severus and Hermione tried to look innocent, but failed miserably.
Severus did not like the way the witch's hands had groped Lucius and had cast a spell to ensure she let go. Her fingers would be sore for some time.
Hermione did not mind that the Christmas tree on the main centre table piece had been destroyed earlier, although she had to hunt down a replacement at such short notice.
The extravagant gingerbread castle, complete with lights, did not look out of place. Many would assume it was Hogwarts and not borrowed from the German bakery next door.
Severus Snape openly smiled as he watched his new lover glance at the repaired table that had been crushed earlier. The main table along with its impressive centrepiece had been smashed to smithereens when the three had decided to consummate their new partnership.
He then noticed something caught in Hermione’s hair. He gently reached out and carefully removed the interloper without affecting her hairdo.
Lucius glanced at him as if to ask what are you doing?
Severus held up a little green spike, then Lucius broke into a huge smile. Hermione turned to see what her two lovers were up to and spotted the green pine needle in Severus’s hand.
“Oh the curse of the pine needles, we will be finding them till the middle of next year.” She sighed and plucked it out of his hand and pocketed it.
Spiky little fuckers.” said Severus.
“Yes, perhaps, but we will need to keep double checking each other to ensure there are no more pine needles.” Winked Lucius.
“We will.” Hermione said, then pretended to wince with pain. “Oh dear, I can feel another needle. She did a little wiggle for effect.”
Her two lovers groaned aroused further by her antics.
“Oh my love,” Lucius soothed, allow me to help”
“I am sure I have a balm to ease the pain.” suggested Severus.
They both moved up closer to Hermione as she whispered.
“Alas it appears to be in my underwear,” she wiggled her eyebrows , “I fear we may have to leave the party early.”
“We cannot allow you to be in pain.” Lucius said as he rubbed her bottom.
“No, certainly not,”. Severus patted his pockets as if he had mislaid something and gasped. “I have no potions, this is an emergency, we must head home at once.”
The three managed to sneak away planning to hunt for the pine needle. It took them hours to try to find the elusive bugger and never did find it. But it was such fun trying.
The little green pine needle was not forgotten, it was elevated into a jewel then set into Hermione’s engagement ring.
