"Hermione, can I ask you something?" asked Lavender with a surprisingly high-pitched and excited voice. The two of them were sitting in their shared room in the Burrow, since Lavender somehow got Ron to agree with her spending the holidays with his family.

"Don't talk out loud. You lower the IQ of the whole street." came the answer from the frizzy-haired Gryffindor, who didn't even bother to look up from the book she was reading. As always. "Just leave me alone."

"But I was just wondering if..." she started again, but was cut off by the other girl before she could even finish her sentence.

"Look, Lavender, I'm trying to study. I still haven't written my Runes essay yet, and I'm going to run out of time if I don't start it now." huffed the girl, now looking a bit frustrated.

"But it's not even New Year's yet! You have plenty of time to do it later!" complained Lavender. "I just wanted to talk about something with you."

"Later." Hermione dismissed the topic and a moment later, she was already back to reading.

Lavender let out a resigned sigh, and turned towards the exit.

"I just wanted to ask where she got that pretty dress from." she mumbled as she closed the door behind her.
