Weeks passed by, everything when well with the marauders, Lily, Angeline and Wendy. And very soon Christmas is just around the corner.

In The Common Room

"So guys, who you going to ask to the Christmas ball?" Frank Longbottom asked the marauders.

"Well, we are not staying for Christmas are we?" Peter asked

"We are not sure yet Pete." James replied

"Yep! Our mommies have not owled us yet!" Sirius continued.

Just then an owl flew in a dropped a letter on James lap.

"Speak of the devil." Remus said mockingly

Dear James, Sirius, Remus and Peter,

As for your Christmas holidays, you will not be spending it here at home not at school. You are to bring the girls meaning Lily, Angeline and Wendy home. Our manor will be holding the ministry's Christmas ball this year at our first floor ballroom. It is also to be a muggle kind of ball so you can ask the girls if they want to shop at Diagon alley. If they don't, then I will bring them shopping for their clothes somewhere else.

Love, your MUMS

"Well, let's go find the girls!" Sirius said excitedly

"Who's looking for us?" The girls asked as they walked through the common room door.

"Us! The Marauders!" the four of them chorused.

"Bless us lord" Lily said pretending to moan.

"Oh stop it Lilers. We know you love us." James said.

"Okay enough of this crap! Why are you looking for us?" Wendy asked.

"Nothing much hun." Sirius said

"I said cut the crap!" Wendy shouted.

"Relax breath." James said not wanting to make Wendy too angry.

"Well our moms said that we will not be spending Christmas here but in fact we are going home for Christmas." Remus said

"Yeah. And there is going to be a ministry ball which I so hate and we are suppose to wear muggle clothing." Sirius continued for Remus.

"And mom asked if you wanna buy your clothes at Diagon Alley or you want my mom to bring you when we arrive back home." James explained.

"I see. What's so difficult to tell us straight away?" Angeline asked the boys

"Well babe, actually we are just trying to make things difficult for you." Sirius said putting his hands round Angeline's waist.

"Well then since you have already told me, will you just get those filthy hands of yours of me?" Angeline asked Sirius sweetly flashing him her million dollar smile.

After getting out of Sirius grasps, Angeline asked "So, where do you think we should shop at?"

"Well Diagon Alley!" the other two chorused

"Are you girls sure? I will have to write back to mommy." James asked

"Of course!" the girls chorused

"Alright then you only have the next hogsmeade trip to shop!" Sirius said

"Aye sir." Angeline answered Sirius mockingly

---

Very soon the next hogsmeade trip came. Naturally all the girls were very excited!

"Okay, we will go and shop for our gowns together while you boys can go anywhere you guys like." Lily said.

"Hey! Why can't we follow you girls to shop? We want to see what gowns you are going to buy!" Sirius whined.

"Well unfortunately for you, we have decided to keep you boys in suspense! So none of you will know what we are going to wear!" Wendy explained.

"Oh… so it's a surprise! Great! I love surprises!" Sirius grinned childishly.

"Sometimes, I really wonder if you are actually a fifteen year old!" Angeline laughed whacking Sirius's head playfully…
