Chapter Thirteen
OoOoO
"Wake up." Leila shook Tess. She didn't even budge. "Wake up..." still nothing. Leila took a deep breath then shouted, "WHAT THE HELL UP! IT EFFING CHRISTMAS!"
"Wha..." Tess slowly got up and rubbed her eyes. "New years?"
Leila laughed at her friend's confusion. "It's still December...." Just then Jamison came running into the room.
"Ate [1] Leila! Ate Leila!" He called as he came into the room. "I got many presents! Come look!"
Leila said in a sweet voice, "It was Santa, huh?" while Tess asked bewildered, "today is Christmas?"
The little boy nodded. "Yeah! C'mon let's go! Let's go! I wanna open my presents!" Jamison said eagerly. He took both Leila's and Tess's hands and pulled them out of Tess's room and down the hall and down the stairs to the living room/ parlor.
The whole house was decorated with Christmas decorations. Greens and reds, mistletoes, garlands, Christmas ornaments, hell, even a gingerbread house for the sake of Jamison! The living room looked so cozy and warm compared to the bare cold scenery outside.
"Look! Both you and Tita [2] Tess have gifts, Ate Leila! Look!" He said gleefully. Tess smiled as she walked into the room following Jamison. Leila went to the kitchen to get something to drink.
As she walked to the kitchen, Leila could hear Jamison's laugh and Tess's witty remarks. She pushed open the door that lead to the kitchen and...
"OH MY GOD!" She shut the door right away and turned around. "Oh my God. Oh my god! EW! My eyes... my EYES!" she said to her self.
The door opened and Joan and Sirius came out of the kitchen. "Sorry you had to see that? Are you okay?" Sirius asked as he buttoned up is shirt.
Joan smacked his armed. "No she is not alright, Sirius! She is now scared for life!" she told her husband as she fixed her skirt.
Leila inhaled deeply and walked away from the couple. "I saw nothing. That is right, nothing... yeah... oh god my eyes..." and she turned a corner and disappeared from their sight.
"Do you think, we're not her parents and all... but we're her guardians and I think we should give her that talk..."Joan said slowly.
Sirius laughed. "Nah, after that show I say that she wont even want to her that from us... maybe Remus or Harry could tell her?" Joan rolled her eyes and made her way to the living room. "At least it wasn't Jamison!" he called out to his wife.
OoOoO
"Mom! Wake up! It's Christmas morning!" Jasmine called to her mom. She heard her mom's muffled reply as she walked passed Sherry's room. Jasmine walked down the stairs and into the family/ living room.
She eyed all the gifts but only one caught her attention. "Hm, that one looks odd..." she said out loud. Jasmine walked over to the Christmas tree and picked up that particular box.
The witch opened up the card that was attached to the box and read it. A sudden pang of happiness, worry, fear, and hate hit her. She then whispered, "Dad...?"
"Honey? Are you already down there?" Her mother called from the second floor. Jasmine cursed under her breath realizing that she might find this gift.
"Uh... yeah, Mom! Already downstairs!" She called back to her mom as she raced back to her room, which was downstairs, to hide the box that her father gave her. She opened up her trunk and hid it underneath all her books and quills and other stuff. She then locked it and walked out the room.
Jasmine saw her mom as she entered the living/ family room again. She then said to her mom, "Merry Christmas, Mom!"
OoOoO
"Honey! Can you get the bag of diapers? There somewhere in the baby's room!" Marisa's mother called to her husband. As he walked down the halls he pasted my Marisa's room.
"Hey, Marisa?" Her dad stood at the doorframe. Marisa looked up from her book.
"Yeah, Pop?"
"Can you watch over your siblings? While your mom and I go to that party (A/N: they are Jewish, remember?)?" He asked.
"You know that answer already, Dad." She stated bluntly. He nodded and said goodbye and headed to the baby's room to get what he need.
Marisa watched her father's retreating form and then went back to reading.
OoOoO
Christmas morning at the Black Manor went very well. Jamison got a total of 13 or so gifts, Joan about 10, and Sirius around 11 or 12 (not including letter/ cards).
Tess got six presents. A pencil case from Marisa (it had four new quills inside), a book called 'The History of Hogwarts' Great Pranksters (including the Marauders and the Weasley Twins)' from Jasmine, wizard fashion jewelry from Leila, a new dress witch robe from the Blacks, and 20 galleons and an album from her older brother.
Leila had a total of nine gifts (not including letters/cards). A pencil case from Marisa (a different pencil case though), about five enchanted bookmarks from Jasmine, a box of edible ink (a new type of candy) and Chocolate frogs from Tess. Sirius and Joan gave her a pair of wizard All Star Converses (they can turn into any color and any style, as in high top or low top, you want at any time). Harry's and Cho's present was a big jewel box (they heard that she need another box, so that she can have one for her jewelry and the other for her fashion jewelry).
The Lupins (Remus, Tonks and their kids) gift to Leila was a set of four bracelets that were in different forms of a snake. Molly sent Leila one of her famous knitted sweaters (Scarlet with the initials of L in black). And many letters/ cards from other members of Order of The Phoenix (some even contain money!).
After present opening and one nice picture they all ate a breakfast (Leila still hasn't forgotten this morning's incident). And after that they all got the house ready for the Christmas diner party that was going to be held at the Manor.
OoOoO
"Can you help me with my hair?" Leila turned around and saw Tess standing in her doorway. "Sure? What style?" Leila asked as she gestured Tess to sit down on her vanity chair.
"A simple bun would be nice." Tess suggested to her friend. Leila nodded and started to comb Tess's just-washed hair. Since Leila isn't able to use magic outside of school, she did it the muggle way, and after a couple of minutes Tess's hair was up in an elegant but simple bun.
"Thanks, Lala, I'm going to go and put on my dress." She said and walked out Leila's room and into the room next door.
As soon as Tess left Leila closed the door and pulled out her dress from her closet. What Leila was going to wear to the dinner party was a maroon spaghetti strap dress that went down to her knees. It curved and cling her upper body and was lose and sort of bell shaped from waist down. The dress had a creamy white silk scarf that was tied to the waist part of the dress and a fake creamy white rose to cover the knot.
Leila's shoes are high heals and were the same color of the dress, maybe a tad bit darker and her choice of jewelry was a pearl set complete with a necklace, a bracelet for her right wrist, and a pair of tear drop pearls for earrings. The make-up was simple, mascara and some eyeliner and clear lip-gloss. She hair was in a half bun. Not bad for a twelve year old.
Next-door Tess was putting on her outfit. Since Tess wasn't all for one for dresses, she wore a pastel purple skirt that ended at her ankles and had a slit on the side, a white button up dress shirt that had faint purple pinstripes and white slip on shoes. She also borrowed a lavender choker that had a fake purple flower attached to it from Leila. She also wore no make-up.
They walked out of their rooms and headed down stairs together. Tess was so pumped up about meeting THE Harry Potter, even though Leila keep telling her that Harry was just a normal guy once you look past the fame... and the Dark Lord.
"Is that him?" Tess asked as they entered the mini ballroom in the black manor. Leila shook her head saying that was Bill Weasley, Prof. Weasley's oldest brother. Tess frowned, "Oh, well... he looks like a hero..." Leila laughed at that.
"He is a curse-breaker or something and works for Gingotts." Leila told her. "He is kind of good looking though..." Tess nodded in agreement.
"Is practically all our professors here?" Tess asked as they passed by McGonagall talking to Hagrid.
"Well, only some." Leila said not want to reveal to Tess about The Order. She then continued, "Professor Snape would have been here, but he doesn't like Sirius."
"Finally the two beauties decided to come down!" Sirius exclaimed as he made his way to Tess and Leila.
"Hey, arriving late is fashionable!" both girls said at the same time.
"Hey Tito." Leila said as she gave him a hug.
"Hello-"but then Sirius was bumped into by someone. "Hey there, Ginny!" he greeted as he saw Ginny. The two also greeted their professor who told them to drop the formalities because they were outside of school.
"Hello, Draco." Sirius greeted Ginny's fiancée. He just nodded and said a small hello but gave a welcoming greeting to Leila, who on their first meeting bonded quite well. The three men that Leila have had a strong bond with ever since her brother were Sirius, Harry, and Draco. (A/N; Favorite male characters!)
Well, the two couple left to go mingle with other guest. Tess finally meets Harry and his wife Cho, who even had a conversation with Tess in Chinese. After meeting some new people (namely for Tess), and seeing some others whom that last time they spoke was before school started (which was Leila) dinner started and the night went on and Christmas day soon faded into December 26.
OoOoO
A/N: yeah! Chapter 13 is done! Hoped you liked it and REVIEW! Well, I still need a name for Tess, Marisa, Leila, and Jasmine (looks at a certain review), you know who you are!
[1]- Ate means 'big sister' in Tagalog. It is a honorfication in the Philippines, like kun or chan in Japan. I made Jamison call Leila that because he sees her like a big sister, and (yes this even has a back story to it) asked her how to say big sister so she told him and now he calls her Ate or Ate Leila.
[2]- Tita (I don't really know if that is the correct spelling or not), another honorfication in the Philippines, it means Aunt. Leila calls Joan and Sirius her Aunt and Uncle so she uses the Filipino term for it, come on! She lived in the PI for ten years! She is used to it!
Well, Thanks Jordan (or Ura) for helping me pair more pairings for future stories in this sequel. I WILL FIND OUT WHO ASKED YOU TO THE 8TH GRADE PROM DANCE! I swear I will! ::Gets all spy like:: your choices were better then the ones I thought of which were: Jasmine and Andrew (God their kids will be funky looking), Tess and Mike O. (it could work! Or not...) and Marisa and... MATT (oh my lord...or how Marisa would say: Sweet Jesus!)... See? Yours are way BETTER! ... Don't let this go to your head!
Well, toodles!
