Hey guys, sorry that its been so long.. yeah I know I am a piece of junk. I hope you like this chapter. hehe.. REVIEW..plz. thanks for all your patients. I don't own anyting..

James was as nervous and fidgety as a first year. He had never been this nervous.

Lily was seventy-five percent asleep when she came down to the common room the next day. She needed some coffee or a forty-hour nap. Lily's presents were all finished but she still felt like she hadn't done enough for the five people that had made her life worth living. She was grateful to them in more ways than one.

She had stayed up all night working on James' gift, she wanted it to be perfect and somehow she knew that it was going to be.

James had also stayed up all night working on Lily's present and knew that she was going to love it, she had to love it.

Remus, Sirius and Bella laughed about their love struck friends, who didn't even know that they liked each other. How typical of teenagers.

"I am dead on my feet hurry up and open gifts before I fall asleep on the spot, Please!" Lily said as she handed her beloved friends their homemade gifts.

Bella loved her homemade earrings, Remus loved his drawing and Peter was confused about his glass of never ending water.

James wasn't downstairs yet and this made lily a little distressed cause she wanted to know if he liked her gift or not. Sirius blushed when he opened his gift the lovely picture of Bella, he wouldn't let anyone see it, and this made Lily really happy. She had worked really hard on it all night, doing everything by hand and not using any magic, except to clean up. Everyone looked up when they heard James walk down the stairs carrying a small box, and he was smiling insanely.

He handed the box to Lily who looked at it for a little while. James had also stayed up all night working on Lily's gift, he knew that she wouldn't be impressed by his wealth and had made her something homemade as she did for him.

Lily slowly opened the box as everyone watched. Inside the box was a picture of James and her when they were still in first year. The picture frame was obviously made by James, it was a little crocked. Lily smiled, this was the best gift that she had received. She jumped up and hugged James, who in turn smiled and knew that he had done good.

Lily recovered quickly, this didn't mean anything, she thought, he still doesn't like you the way you like him. She handed him his present, which she laugh silently, was also a picture of the two of them together when they were in third year.

James smiled, he knew that she had worked hard on all of their presents and that she was an awesome friend. She was going to love the other present that he had also made her. He was going to give it to her later that night.

After giving and receiving lily decided that she wanted to take a little nap, and when I say little that means that she wanted to sleep all day. But James, Sirius, Remus and Bella didn't let her get as far as the first step before they said that they were all gonna have breakfast together.

"I hate you guys. I am so tired. Just shoot me." Lily said as they got to the great hall, she just wanted to lay her head down on the table and fall asleep there. Any sleep would be good.

"You are such a liar and you know that you probably would kill us if we let you sleep on Christmas anyway. Were gonna have fun today, I promise you." Bella told her. Bella knew that James has a little surprise for lily later. And she smiled to herself. If only Sirius could be like James, Bella thought, this would be a great Christmas.

"So what do you want to eat Lils?" asked Remus. He noticed that she hadn't put anything on her plate, she was just staring at the food willing it to hop into her plate.

"I'm not hungry. Don't look at me like that James." Lily said smiling. James was smiling at her, he knew that she was just to lazy to grab some food.

James pushed some eggs and bacon onto her plate and she willingly ate them. Gobbling them all up, and in time she was strong enough to grab her own food.

"Hey I heard this funny joke the other day.. Do ya wanna hear it?" Sirius asked.

Everyone said yes, yeah, sure, why not.

"There was this blonde driving down interstate 2 and she noticed in a field another blonde that was trying to row a boat out in the field. Well the blonde pulls over and gets out of the car and yells at the rowing blonde "Its blondes like you that give Blondes like me a bad name. If I could swim I would come out there and kick your ass."" Sirius said. Lily was laughing so hard that she just about fell out of her chair, she had to grab on to James to keep from falling.

Lily's laughter was contagious and before they all knew it the whole great hall was laughing, which there wasn't that many people, but still. Lily smiled and stopped laughing, her cheeks were starting to hurt.

James looked at Lily.

"Will you come with me somewhere. Please.. .I want to give you something." James asked.

"Yeah sure, just as long as its no where cold." Lily said.

James got up and Lily followed, she had no idea what was going on. She followed him out of the great hall as everyone watched them leave. Sirius and Bella exchanged knowing looks and smiled.

Before Sirius knew what he was doing he was leaning in to kiss Bella in front of all these people, Bella closed her eyes, she had waited for this moment for a while. When their lips met it was like fireworks, noting neither of them had ever felt before. Both were smiling when they pulled away from the kiss.

Remus started to clap, once he was done giving James pointers he was going to make Sirius fess up to liking Bella, now he didn't have to.

A.N. and so ends this lovely Christmas chapter, but it is not over yet. Mwhahahahahah. I promise you wont have to wait very long for the next chapter. Scouts Honor.
