It was Christmas Eve all around Hogwarts, the snow was falling softly the cardinals were twittering around and the DADA teachers, the trio, and cho were the only people left at Hogwarts except for Dumbeldore and the other teachers of course.

The last weekend before break Harry, Ron, hermione, cho, James, and Sirius went down to the 3 broomsticks to meet Remus and he nearly passed out when he saw James. All of them spent 4 hours catching up and James continually asked about his werewolf condition which was finally gone so he could no longer transform into a werewolf but could still turn into a wolf (he became an animagus after he found out he could no longer transform).

Cho was gonna stay in gryffindor tower with hermione in the girls dorms since they were the only ones left and Dumbeldore gave them permission. When the 4 of them were going back to the tower they saw a notice pinned up on the bulletin board and they read the notice which said: "to all remaining students, on Christmas the rest of the school 4th years and up will be coming back to school for a Christmas dance on Christmas evening, please wear all dress robes enjoy your quiet hours ~professor mcgonagall." But they read that first day of break.

Now Christmas Eve. Everyone (including James and Sirius) were sitting in front of the fire roasting everything they could slip in a roasting fork, and James and Sirius were talking about the times they pranked snape and Malfoy.

When they finished talking Harry asked them all "would you guys like going down to hagrids we haven't seen him in awhile"

They all nodded and set off to hagrids.

"Minerva its time to cook the potion do you have the supplies?" Dumbeldore asked mcgonagall

"yes albus" she replied while laying out a vial of Harry's blood, a silver and blue ring, and a hair of Voldemorts that they got off of Harry's robes from last year.

Dumbeldore started reciting and adding the ingredients.

"Blood of your child you will live mortally, symbol of ancestor you reclaim your duties, hair of enemy who took your life, now with life granted from the heavens YOU WILL RISE"

at these last words the potion frothed and bubbled then made blue mist blinding Dumbeldore and mcgonagall it cleared and a soft moaning sounded.

"Whe-where am I?" asked the thing that popped out of the potion.

"Welcome back my dear friend" said Dumbeldore reaching out a hand, this person grasped it.

"Hello albus" this friend replied.

"Lily I think I need to up-date you on a few things, first your not dead anymore your alive, second James came back to life and dose not know your alive, third you saved your son and Voldemort did not succeed on killing him, and fourth its Christmas eve." Said Dumbeldore.

Lily was shocked on how this old man could answer her questions with out her asking. She now asked "may I go see my husband and 15 year old son?"

"no lily im sry but you may not now, though tomorrow morning I think that it will be better if you surprise you family" said Dumbeldore his eyes twinkling, "you will be spending the night in my guest chamber if you would like to though I don't think there would be any other place for you to sleep now come to think of it"

"Don't worry Dumbeldore I understand your plan, now, what time is it?" lily asked.

"Its 9 o'clock and I have all your belongings in my guest chamber, but I would suggest you say hi to Minerva here and I would like you to take up the post of charms since poor flitwick resigned just before break" said Dumbeldore.

"Id love to be the new charms teacher sir" replied lily and went to talk to Minerva who was shocked sitting on the couch in the corner by fawkes who immediately perched himself upon lily's knee.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~back in James and Sirius' sleeping chambers~~~~~~~~~~~~~

James was staring at a photo in the album that Harry gave him, it was the picture of him and lily at their wedding, and he let a tear escape him.

"What's wrong buddy?" asked a concerned Sirius.

"Nothing, just remembering lily that's all" said a sniffling James.

"Prongs, move on, you have a son who spent 15years without his parents and you know that is hard on him but he lasted and he's grateful to have his father back who knows lily is probably looking down on you now trying to tell you to go to him and make him happy with what miracle of a gift that he received" said Sirius.

"Yea I guess your right but it would be so much better if lily was with me now and all 3 of us were so happy."

"Yea but be happy with what you got and who you have and you will feel better" said Sirius.

"You know your copying of a greeting card right?" joked James.

"Yea but who cares" laughed Sirius.

"well we better get to bed goodnight padfoot" said James while getting into his bed.

"yea goodnight prongs" said Sirius getting into his own bed.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~gryffindor tower~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Harry, Ron, hermione, and cho were sitting in front of the fire humming the same Christmas carol:

Have a very merry Christmas,

It's the best time of the year,

I don't know if there will be snow but there will be lots of cheer,

Have a very merry Christmas,

And trust me it will be bright,

And white,

Ron joked with Harry and cho and sang loudly:

Oh ho the mistletoe,

Hung up by Harry,

Waiting patiently for cho,

And imagining how happy he'll be,

This earned a kiss on the cheek from hermione who thought he was being sweet, yet 2 pillows in the face from 2 cheery red Harry and cho's.

"im gonna kill you mentally" said Harry.

"and ill be helping him" said cho who picked up 2 more pillows and brought them crashing down on Ron.

"Oh this means war" bellowed Ron and hermione because cho misaimed and hit hermione on accident. So there ended up being a full-fledged pillow fight till10:00 pm.

Well that was fun and all but we better be getting to bed" said a tired yet laughing Ron.

"yea come on Ron, good night girls" said Harry while he and Ron headed up to the boys dorms.

"yea goodnight" said cho and hermione, giving their boyfriends kisses on the cheek's before hurrying into the girls dorms.

Ron and Harry headed to the boys dorms and collapsed on their beds not bothering to get undressed.
