Going home for Christmas
It was the week before Christmas and everybody was exited about going home for the holidays all except for Sirius. They were all sitting in the Great Hall during a free period that they had that day, Remus was studying as usual and Peter was trying to understand some of the stuff so that he would not have to study over the break. Sirius was brooding next to James on the one side of the table with Peter and Remus on the other side.
"Hey Sirius?" James said looking at Sirius with a look of concern. "What's the matter mate?"
"Christmas is coming I have to go home to my lovely family." He said with sarcasm in his voice.
"Why, what's wrong with your family?" Remus asked looking up from his book and running his fingers through his hair which he has made a habit of doing.
"Oh there only the worst muggle, half-blood, half-bread" Remus winced. "And everything else that's not a pure blood wizard or witch hating people in the world!" Sirius said angrily. "They hate me for getting into Gryffindor. They've always hated me…" Sirius trailed off.
"Aww, come on man its okay." James said trying to comfort him. "Oh hey! Maybe you can come over my house for Christmas I'm sure my parents won't mind."
"Really! Oh that would be so cool!" Sirius exclaimed getting much happier.
"Alright then it's settled I'll send a letter to my parents and ask them." James said ruffling his hair.
"So now I know what I'm doing for Christmas, what are you guys doing?"
"Oh you know the usual going home, seeing the family, changing into a blood-thirsty monster." Remus said the last part under his breath.
"What did you say mate?" Sirius said.
"Nothing!" Remus said quickly. "What about you Peter, what are you doing?"
"Seeing my folks, a couple of cousins some aunts some uncles and that kind of stuff." Peter said.
Very soon there last class was over and there holiday was there, they got out of there last class.
"Oh, it's good to be free!" Sirius said stretching. "No more Slytherins, teachers, Snape, and classes for a whole week!"
"Yeah, it's gonna be fun." Remus said not to enthusiastic and widening his eyes and running his fingers through his hair.
"Come on we better go upstairs and start to pack for tomorrow." James said.
"You're right let's go." Sirius said, the four boys ran up to there common room, and Laura, Lily and Heather were sitting on the couch and Lily was at a failed attempt to make Heathers hair look good and not so puffy (it looks kind of like Hermione's hair but not as curly and no bangs). "Oh." Sirius said under his breath as he entered the common room.
"Hey Sirius." Laura said flashing him her cute smile.
"Hi."
"Okay come on Sirius we have to go and pack our things for tomorrows train." James aid slowly and holding onto Sirius's shoulders.
"Shut up." Sirius said pushing James's hands off. "Let's go."
They walked up the stairs and went into their dorm to pack there things. They all just shoved all of their robes and books into their cases with no order at all they were all anxious to get out of their and let their break start. They all went to sleep early that night so they could wake up early the next morning. They all said there goodnights and went to bed. The next morning they woke up early like they wanted to.
"Come on mates wake up!" James yelled, and everybody sat upright all except Sirius who just twitched in his sleep.
"Let's wake im up." Remus said walking over to the bed still groggy.
They all shouted at him and he sat up right yelling, "Beware the pink bunnies!" They all stared at him and Sirius began to blush.
"Beware the pink bunnies." Remus said laughing, the other to were laughing to hard and were rolling on the floor and could not say a word.
"S – Sirius, w – wha – what were you dreaming about man?" James could barley get a word out and a Peter was crying on the floor he was laughing so hard.
"I – I don't remember…" Sirius trailed off.
"Okay now let's get Peter up before he dies of laughter." Sirius said.
"Come on mate." James said pulling him up.
"O – Okay, okay I'm, I'm good." Peter said still breathing hard.
"You sure we don't want you to die." James said once Sirius was up and on his feet they all went into the bathroom and brushed there teeth, and then they went out into the dorm and changed. They all grabbed there bags and by the time they got down to the common room it was nine o'clock and there were already some people down there. They did not bother staying in there and went strait to the great hall which was decorated with lights a huge tree and ornaments everywhere.
"Hey Remus." Said a boy who walked up to them, which they recognized as Tim.
"Oh hey Tim how are ya doing?" Remus said
"Good, um I was wondering if I could borrow one of your potions books." Tim said.
"Oh sure which one?"
"It doesn't matter any of them."
"Okay here 'Potions for beginners' how's that it says beginners but if goes up to like a second year level."
"Alright thanks I'll give it back after break." Tim said walking away.
"No problem." Remus said.
"What was all that about?" Sirius asked.
"Oh ya that was Tim he needs some help in Potions, I'm helping him out." Remus said.
"He needs help what about you your not doing so well yourself."
"But I'm doing better then him." Remus said with a smile.
"He's a Ravenclaw isn't he?" Peter asked.
"Well yes, but that dose not mean that you're automatically good at potions." Remus said with a slight laugh.
"Okay everyone if you are going home for the holidays the trains are leaving soon so let's go." McGonagall said in front of the Great Hall.
"Well mates lets go." James said ruffling his hair.
They all got onto the train and took the long ride back to King Cross station. When they got of the train they all ran to greet there parents except James and Sirius they walked over to James's parents.
"Mum, dad this is my friend Sirius Black, Sirius this is mum and dad."
"Nice to meet you too."
"Well come on boys lets go home." Mrs. Potter said.
Home is a word that Sirius never really new and was glad he could finally go to one hopefully this one would be different then his own and he had a feeling that it would.
