Harry walked up to Severus’ desk who at the moment was grading papers. “Sev?”

“What is it, Harry?” Severus asked without looking up.

With a content sigh, Harry leaned back against the desk and crossed his arms. As he looked upward he said, “Oh nothing. Just thinking that it’s gonna be a rather cocky year.”

The way Harry said the word “cocky” made Severus think of something else. “What makes you say that?”

“Well, one of Hermione’s Muggle friend introduced her to the Asian culture. From there, Hermione got really interested in the Lunar Calendar.”

Severus looked up and glared. “What’s your point?”

“Well, each year is represented by an animal. And this is the year of the rooster.” Harry went around the desk and bent over to nibble on Severus’ ear.

“Harry . . . ” Severus fought back a moan, and dropped his pen.

“Hence the reason why I said it’s gonna be a cocky year.” Harry gently made Severus stand up, and kissed him. Severus kissed back without any complaint.
