This is gonna be some kind of Advent Calendar Fic. I'll try to add one chapter every day until December 25th. They won't be very long chapters and go mostly un-beta-ed but anyway, I hope you like it.

Btw: I don't own the characters, settings, names and so on, nor do I make any money with this.

It's dedicated to my beloved beta Suwamoto.

Recommended music: Juli - Wir beide


December 1st

Hermione sighed and turned off the TV. Since she moved in with Ginny and Sirius for college she had changed some things at Grimmauld Place. She missed living with her parents and so she took some muggle things with her, for example her television. She loved sitting on the couch with Ginny and a cup of hot chocolate in the evenings, watching old movies. Ginny, who grew up with a muggle-addicted father, knew what a TV was, but never used one before the girls where invited by Sirius to live with him. Now they often spent the rainy British evenings with old Katherine Hepburn or Marilyn Monroe movies.

Afterwards Ginny took care of the cups and Hermione watched the late-night-news. Ginny came back into the living room and sat next to the depressed-looking Hermione.

"What is it, Mione? You look like Ron's dog ate Crookshanks.", Ginny said wearyly, knowing this condition of her friend all too well.

"TV's saying that there'll be rain tomorrow.", Hermione grunted. Ginny rolled her eyes. She never quite understood how Muggles were able to predict the weather without having precognitive abilities, but she wasn't planning on asking Hermione again. She once tried to explain it to her, but as words like "humidity" and "air pressure" reached her brain she turned it off and waited till she finished her monologue.

"So what's the news?", she asked again, shrugging her shoulders, "It has been raining for weeks now so why should the weather change? We'll survive it, as long as Sirius keeps on buying milk and chocolate." she said smilingly, lounging herself back into the huge couch. She pulled over the blanket she and Hermione were sharing.

"Yes, I know... But it'll be Christmas soon.", Hermione muttered, "I hoped there would be snow on Christmas." She sighed again and pulled the blanket closer, pulling it from Ginny in the same move. The younger girl laughed and and pulled on the blanket herself.

The two girls kept on fighting over the huge blanket. They were giggling and grinning and laughing until Hermione lost it.

"Okay, Weasley.", she said, pulling her eyebrow up. Behind her back she grabbed a pillow. She smirked as Ginny looked at her with a worried expression. "This is war!"

Before Ginny knew what happened Hermione pulled the pillow from behind her back and hit her friends shoulder. Ginny let out a surprised squeak and a fierce look appeared on her face.

"You bet, Granger!", Ginny spat and grabbed a pillow herself. With a terrifying roar she thrust the pillow at the brown-haired girl and made her bushy brown curls look even more devastated.

All the laughing an squealing must have been pretty loud because eventually the doors to the living room opened and a terrified Sirius Black entered, looking as if he was expecting to face a lion in his house. He laughed, turned around to close the doors and turned back just in time to see a pillow aiming to hit his head. He ducked away quickly and looked at the two fighting girls.

The blanket they were fighting over earlier was now on the huge thick carpet. The pillows from the couch and the armchair were spread all over the room and the two young scholars were running around the room. When they both stepped from the seats they were hiding behind and restarted fighting Sirius swallowed hard. The sight of the two, pillow-fighting, in scanty nightgowns and feathers flying around them encouraged his fantasy and he raised his eyebrow.

Since the two girls had not even noticed him then he harrumphed and told them smilingly "Hey girls... I know I'm irresistible. But there's no reason for fighting, there's enough Sirius for everyone!" First the girls looked at him in disbelieve, then back at each other. They saw the understanding in each others eyes and turned back towards the animagus in boxers and bathrobe. They smiled lightly and started walking in his direction.

Before he could react he was hit by two pillows and wrestled to the ground by his two house mates. He fell into the comfy carpet and pulled the girls, still using the pillows to attack his head and shoulders, down with him. He didn't have a pillow so he use the only weapons he had left, his hands and the knowledge of the ticklish bellies of the girls.

Since both, Hermione and Ginny, were very sensitive he managed to make sure they unhanded they pillows and gave up fighting, but he didn't stop until the girls were helplessly on the ground, begging him to stop, not able to move an inch.

He accioed some cushions and lay down between the panting girls on the pillowy carpet. They both cuddled up against him an quickly fell asleep. He sighed and pulled the reason for the girls' fight over the three of them. Living with those girls really wasn't easy, but it had its advantages.
