A/N 2- I have decided against writing in different POV's, its just too confusing.
A/N 3- Lastly (again if I do continue) I'm going to write short chapter so I get them out faster.
A/N 4- haha just kidding. Don't get your feathers ruffled... Onto the story!
"Happy Christmas Eve everyone!" shouted Hermione, trying to be cheerful. The truth was, she like everyone else, was miserable. They had been there for 3 1/2 weeks, and no work from Dumbledore. Hermion was putting the final touches on the tree they had asked the room for. The Room of Requirement did that and more. It had also supplied them with ornaments, holly, mistletoe, and wreaths. Ginny was decorating the common room, whil Cho was walking on the treadmill next to Harry. The room looked marvelous. There were wreaths everywhere and candy canes on each table. Harry had also asked the room for a battery powered boom box and some holiday CD's. "Have a Holly Jolly Christmas" was playing. Ron was reading the latest Quidditch magazine next to the crackling fire. Draco was in the guys' room. Minimal conversation was said between him and everyone else... nobody minded.
"Happy Christmas Eve to you too 'Mione," said Ginny, struggling to hang up a wreath on a high part of the ceiling.
"Hey Ron, do you think you could get off of your lazy arse and help me with this?"
"What? Oh yeah, hold on," Ron said. He went back to his reading.
A frustrated Ginny shouted, "RONALD WEASLEY!!"
"OK, OK! Don't blow a fuse sister dear."
As Ron helped Ginny with the wreaths, things started to happen with the dream couple.
"...Cho, I just don't see why you think it was OK that Maria told Umbridge about the DA!" exclaimed Harry.
"Well Harry, not all of us go around breaking rules and disobeying authority like you."
"Yes, Harry is quite the rebel isn't he?" Ron intruded.
"Shut up Ron," Harry said. "Yeah, well she deserved what she got then."
"If I told on the DA, would I derserve that then?"
Struggling for words he replied, "umm..err... yes, anyone who told would derserve it."
"So you wouldn't mind if I got a face full of acne? Would you still go out with me then? Or would it just be another excuse for you to break up with me and date Hermione?" a very flushed Cho said.
"Gods Cho, of coure I wouldn't want you to get it, and yes I would still want to go out with you. Will you quit being such a drama queen?!"
"Don't make it sound like you're the perfect one here! I seem to remember someone being a 'drama queen' when Roger Davies asked me out this year! And when Lavender asked you out this year and I put up a complaint, you told me to stop being jealous! And hypocrisy isn't your only fault Mr. Potter. Remember the first time we went to the window on the fourth floor and made--" Cho said, pointing her finger at Harry before she was cut off.
"No need to get into that Cho. But the fact still lies, you get too over dramatic about everything! Jeez, remember the time when I told you I couldn't take a walk with you one night because I had to help Ron with Quidditch? Do you remember what you did?"
Cho nodded guiltily.
"You didn't speak to me for three days because I couldn't take a damn walk with you!" shouted Harry as he stepped off of his treadmill.
"Well its nice to know you pick your friend, who you see EVERY MNUTE OF EVERYDAY over your girlfriend whom you only see at night and on weekends."
"She's got a point man," Ron said as he went back to his magazine.
"Shut up Ron!!" they both shouted in perfect unison.
"Listen, why don't stop talking about this and just cool down. I'm going to go get some dinner," Harry said as he quickly walked to the table, not letting Cho say no.
"Hey guys! Why don't we sing Christmas carols to lighten the mood!" intervined Hermione. Jingle Bells started to play on the boom box. "C'mon guys!
'Dashing through the snow, on a one horse open slay
O'er the fields we go, laughing all the way ha ha ha'
Ginny, feeling sorry for Hermione joined in.
'Bells on bobtails ring, making spirits bright
o what fun it is to sing a sleighing song tonight!'
"Ron, c'mon! You've got a great voice, c'mon and help us!" said Ginny quickly.
Ron joined in when he saw the pleading look in Ginny's eyes.
'O jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way
o what fun it is to ride on a one horse open sleigh hey!
Jingle bells, jingle bells jingle all the way
o what fun it is to ride on a one horse open sleigh HEY!'
Harry and Cho looked at Ron inquisitively at the end of the song.
"Ronny, I didn't know you could sing! Why didn't you tell me?" asked Harry.
"Ron, that was beautiful! You should think about joining the school choir," suggested Cho, her face full of awe.
Ron turned a lovely shade of crimson. "Well," he said, twiddling his fingers, "I never sang outloud before this, only in the shower."
"Ronnykins, you do have the most marvelous voice I have ever heard, it sounds like a cross between a hippogriff and Longbottom," said Draco Malfoy with fake excitement as he walked out of the boys' room
Ron, turning even redder (if possible) shot back, "Malfoy, go back to grooming yourself, your hair doesn't look right."
Draco subconciously put his hand to his hair, before realizing this was just an insult and snapped it away. "You wouldn't know about grooming would you? I've heard that all nine of you share one outhouse. That wouldn't leave much time for things like showering would it?"
"Shut up Malfoy," said Ron, clenching his fists.
"Oh, what are you going to do about it then?" sniggered Draco.
"Oh shut your pointy mouth you overgrown ferret," said Hermione nonchalantly.
"Don't get into this you mudblood!"
"How dare you call her that Malfoy!" said Harry as he and Ron strided over to where Draco was standing with menacing looks about their faces.
"Oh leave him guys, if you break his face, his father might just sue you for making him useless. Plus, I know the spell Moody used to make him a ferret. And I'm sure that if he doesn't want to become a bouncing ferret again, he'll leave us alone," said Hermione, as though she was having a regular, everyday conversation.
With a slightly scared look, Draco went back into the boys' room.
As Ginny watched the battle of wits, she noticed an owl hovering next to one of the windows. "Oi! Guys, I think that we've got a note from Dumbledore!" she said, scurring over to the window. She let the dark grey owl in, and led it over to the table where it helped itself to some chicken.
As she read over the note, her expression went from joyful to horrified.
"Gin, what is it? Read it out loud," commanded Cho in a concerned fashion.
She read the note stuttering, "O-Our plan may have f-foiled when it came to you, but all hope is not yet l-lost. Harry Potter, be prepared to beg for death from the great and almighty Lord V-V-Voldemort. And Potter should not be the only one frightened, Our Lord is looking forward to the visit from Miss V-Virginia Weasley."
"Oh My GOD!" screamed Cho, "It was He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named!?!"
"What the hell does he want with my sister?" shouted Ron, in a protective brother sort of tone.
Everyone was speaking at once frantically until Harry bellowed (quite like Dumbledore) "QUIET!" Everyone stopped speaking. "Listen, we are still under the protection of Dumbledore, so they won't try anything now. Let's all just calm down. First of all, Hermione, shoo that owl out and Ron, get rid of all that food in case the owl poisoned it," commanded Harry.
They both did as they were told, and Hermione immediatly went to the bathroom to wash her hands.
"Harry, why would V-Voldemort want me?" stuttered a terrified Ginny.
"I have no idea Gin," Harry said as he looked at his watch, "Oh, by the way, Happy Christmas!"
