Chapter 5: Christmas Presents

During the next 3 months, Lily, Rosie, Mels, Becky, Eliza, James, Sirius, Remus, and Tegan became vast friends. You couldn't walk down the hallways of Hogwarts and not see all 10 (including Peter) together.

Nothing exciting happened until Christmas time. Becky, Eliza, Tegan, and Peter all went home for Christmas and the only ones left at Hogwarts were Lily, Rosie, Mels, James, Sirius, and Remus.

On Christmas Day the boys woke up early so wake up the girls.

"No! I don't want to get up Si! Its too early to get up. Just wait 'till about 11. Then we'll get up to open presents." Rosie said as she turned over in her nice, warm, bed.

"But I want to open presents NOW! Lily and Mels are up already! Why can't you wake up, too?" Sirius complained to Rosie.

"Fine… but you owe me big time Black." Rosie said from the depths of her pillow.

So after Rosie got down to the common room they started ripping through their presents.

Lily got from Rosie and Mels, make-up, clothes, and sweets. From Sirius and Remus she got an advanced Charms book and sweets that Lily did not dare to eat, even if some of it was from Remus, Sirius still gave her some of it, too. And from James she got a beautiful hairbrush that was made of silver that said on it:

"To My Best Friend, LilyFlower, May We Be Friends For Life. Love, Jamie." Lily also got some other presents from people she didn't know, but she was happy to get anything.

Rosie got from Lily and Mels make-up, clothes, and sweets. From James, Sirius, and Remus she got a Quidditch book and sweets, which like Lily, she wouldn't eat. Rosie, too, also got other many presents from people she didn't know.

Mels got from Lily and Rosie the same things and from the boy she got the same things too, but she got a book on DADA.

James got everything that anyone could ever wish for (most of his presents were Quidditch things). But the one present that caught his attention the most was the shiny silver watch that was from Lily. On one side it had the time, and on the other it had 6 hands with the words 'school', 'traveling', 'mortal danger', 'work', 'home', 'friend's house', and 'sleeping'. James loved it. The card that came with it said: 'Dear Jamie, I hope you like this. You will always be my best guy friend! Love LilyFlower.' Some other presents he got was an Invisibility Cloak from his dad, and a two way mirror from Sirius (he had the other one).

Sirius, also, got everything Quidditch that he could ever want. He also got sweets from his friends.

Remus got the same thing as Sirius did.

"Hey guys… what are these?" Lily said as she held up 6 thin boxes.

"Probably more present from our many admirers." Sirius said as he grabbed his box.

"I don't think so Sirius, these look WAY to expensive. Maybe Dumbledor got them for us?" Lily replied.

"Look! I got the most gorgeous necklace!" Rosie exclaimed. Her necklace had a silver charm on it that looked like a cloud. She was right, it was gorgeous.

They all opened up the boxes and gasped in surprise. In each one was a beautiful necklace. Lily's had a sun on it; Mels' had a music note; James' had fireball; Sirius' had an ice cube; and Remus' had a moon on it.

"A NECKLACE!!!" Sirius exclaimed.

"Sirius, calm down! I think you look sexy in yours, anyway." Rosie told Sirius.

"O.K., O.K., I'll wear it, but only 'cause it's a present and it's cool."

"The only reason you'll wear it is because Rosie said you look sexy in it." Remus said.

"LilyFlower, would you like to go for a walk by the lake shore?" Jamie asked the redhead.

"Sure Jamie!"

After about 10 minutes of silence James asked Lily a question.

"LilyFlower? Do you think Remus and Mels are werewolves? I mean it seems a bit obvious doesn't it? I mean they both miss school at the same time and it's always at full moon." James explained.

"Yes I do Jamie. But we can't tell anyone. Remus and Mels will tell us when the time is right." Lily replied.

"Don't you think we should do something to help them? During their transformations, I mean?"

"The only thing I could think of would to become animargus. But that is REALLY dangerous."

"LilyFlower that is a great idea!" James exclaimed as he picked her up and swung her around in circles.
