Hugo tears into his Christmas presents. His face splits into a wide grin when all of his presents are unveiled. The nine-year old stands up and rushes to his mum and dad for a hug. "Thank you."

His mum laughs. "Do you like your presents?"

"Love them." He leaves their warm embraces to grab a candy cane. He starts waving it around, enchanting spells that he has heard his mum and dad use.

Rose rolls her eyes. "Enough with the candy cane wand. It's stupid."

Hugo drops his wand and glares at his sister. "It's not stupid," he retorts, the hand that's not holding his wand clenched in a tight fist.

"Of course it is," she says, and Hugo hates the fact that she's talking to him like he's a little kid who doesn't understand anything. "This," she takes out the wand she had received during the summer, "is a wand. That is candy."

Hugo stares at the wand, wishing he could hold it. He knows Rose will never allow it, though. She loves dangling it in front of him, and then taking it away before he can even touch it.

"Rose, Hugo, that's enough," his dad says sternly.

Their mum nods. "It's Christmas morning. That means there's no fighting allowed."

Hugo turns his back to his sister and stomps away. When he sits on the couch, he stares at his candy cane wand, wishing it was a real wand.

He knows he'll be going to Hogwarts in a couple of years, and then he'll get his own wand. The waiting is painful, though. Especially now that Rose has a wand and loves rubbing it in his face.

He wants his own wand so bad. His fingers itch for it. Until that day comes though, his candy cane wands will just have to do.
