Aww, she had such a rough day and he made everything perfect for her. Cute story. :)

Very sweet!

that was so beautiful, sev is such a sweetheart.

Very nice what a lovely story

"No matter what angry words come from my lips, and they are bound to escape sometimes, this pendant is charmed to always reveal the truth in my heart—I love you, Hermione."

Oh, what an absolutely lovely gift!  He was so thoughtful about doing things for her unasked while she was busy helping the orphans, not at all complaining about her absence.  Well done, Severus and Hermione!  Thanks for posting.

Poor Hermione!!!!  And Severus has such a soft spot that he hides so well!

Poor Hermione, but all ended well..... sweet and lovely, thank you!

Beautifully written and so sweet I can't stop smiling.  I love the way their first Christmas turned out to be a perfect reflection of their love and their hearts. 

Thank you for posting this here and Merry Christmas.

What a wonderful, heartwarming story.  Thanks for giving me the Christmas warm-fuzzies. 

I am so sorry I missed this when you posted it. SQUEE about the orphanage. It one of my favorite themes. Severus is a good egg for putting together Christmas while HG was busy. Merry Christmas to all!

sweet!

Perfect pre-Christmas fic.  It was so sweet and put a big grin on my face.  Great job!

*sniff ... sniff*  That was beautiful!  While she was caring for others, he was caring for her.  :-)

I had a feeling he was up to something when the gift had already been picked up. I wouldn't be surprised if he had planted the Blibbering Humdingers at the orphanage just to get her out of the house so he could decorate!

Fun story. Thanks for sharing.

Simply beautiful... I was feeling so horrible for Hermione but it all worked out. 

Very sweet and romantic. Perfect for a snowy day. Thanks.

Oh this was sweet:) Perfect start to my day:)

THank you:)
