Christmas is Coming!
Lilly sat stared, bleary eyed at the clock in front of her. 5:25 am.
"It's too early" she moaned and rolled over.
She sat bolt upright as something smashed. She leaped out of bed and wrenched open her bedroom door. Lilly stared at the Head's common room in disbelief. The tall window that looked out over the lake was smashed and James Potter, the head boy, was lying on the floor with his wand out, covered in glass
"Potter, what are you DOING?"
"Decorating..." came the sheepish reply.
"Decorating our common room by breaking the window?" asked Lilly.
"Err... that wasn't me" said James.
"Then who was it?"
James didn't reply, he just pointed at a twitching bundle lying on the floor.
"What IS that?" asked Lilly, staring.
"Sirius" replied James.
"Ah, I see. And why couldn't he come in through the wall?"
"I wouldn't let him in. Um... he said he'd come to err... drop off some presents for tomorrow! But... err... I didn't want him to eh... ruin the decorations!!" James smiled guiltily as he realised that there was no way that Lilly would fall for his lame excuses.
Lilly stared at James for a second. He's so cute when he smiles like that... WHAT? No, I did not just think that. James Potter ISN'T CUTE! Although he is a lot nicer than he was last year... LILLY! Don't think that! Lilly stoped halfway through berating herself as James's words sunk into her mind.
"Presents... tomorrow... OH MY GOD!"
Lilly ran into her room and flung on some clothes before dashing out of the fake wall that served as a door to the head's dormitory.
"Lilly? Lilly, what's wrong?" called James, but she was gone before he had even begun to speak.
"What do you think that was about?" He asked Sirius, who was still curled up on the floor.
"It would seem to me," groaned Sirius as he sat up and began inspecting the scratches he had gotten from the window, "That our head girl forgot that it is Christmas tomorrow."
"Oh, right. Well, at least she didn't see the decorations." Said James grinning.
