A/N: Okay, this'll be really short. Only because I have no time to write, but thought that I should be nice considering that today's Christmas and get you'll a present. This chapter has to do with Christmas as well! Enjoy.

Thank you, Evil Penguin Slayer, KawaiiKonnichiwa, and Princess of the Moon for your wonderful reviews! I love you guys and am dedicating this chapter to you!

In The Great Hall: Part I

The person in the room was Ginny.

"Ginny, what are you doing here?" Harry asked, groggily.

"Harry, everyone's been looking for you. After all, today is Christmas. When Ron got up and saw the pile of gifts at the foot of your bed still wrapped, but you nowhere in sight, he went ballistic! We were all so worried, and we have to go to the Great Hall, NOW!"

"Um...okay?" Harry said hesitantly, surprised by Ginny's outburst.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ginny and Harry made their way into the Great Hall in time to hear some ear splitting music. They looked over to the staff table, where the noise was coming from, to see Blaise Zabini holding a microphone singing:

"I SAW GRANGER KISSING MALFOY UNDERNEATH THE MISTLE TOE LAST NIGHT! SHE DIDN'T SEE ME SITTING, IN THE CHAIR, NEXT TO HER HAIR. SHE DIDN'T THINK ANYONE WAS AWAKE IN THE SLYTHERIN COMMON ROOM!"

The tune was just like "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus" and it was a very scary thing.

Just then, Hermione, who could take no more of it, ran over to Blaise and covered his mouth, not wanting to do anything more because there was always the risk of getting in trouble.

The Great Hall erupted in silence, and everyone was staring at Hermione, shocked at what Blaise had just said. As if it were rehearsed, everyone started talking about it at the same time.

Harry and Ginny continued to stare at Hermione, who by now was blushing bright red. But she wasn't nearly as red as Ron, who wasn't blushing, but was fuming.

Hermione decided to save herself from Ron's wrath, and was about to flee from the Great Hall. As she ran, she was shocked to hear Parvati say to Lavender, "There's no place like Hogwarts for the holidays."

A/N: Yes; that's it for now. Please don't kill me; I'm going on vacation. I'll probably get the second part of this chapter up next year. See y'all in 2005! D
