It was about 9pm on Christmas Eve in the Griffindor Common Room. Nearly Headless Nick was floating about humming "Once in Royal David's City" while Hermione was sitting reading "The Wonders of the Magical World." Ron and Harry were sitting in the corner playing a very noisy game of wizard chess. Harry's knight had just knocked down Ron's Queen and had checked his King. Ron was yelling at his pieces to move.
"Bishop to E5. Common what you waiting for take his Knight quickly. Fine then if you're such a wimp to move then Prawn to E5. Bloody hell what is wrong with you all."
"Ron would you keep the noise down I am trying to read. I no it is VERY hard for you to not get involved but would you keep it down. This book is very interesting and I don't want to miss anything. It is good revision for out N.E.W.T.s" said Hermione.
"Our N.E.W.T's are not until next year. How can you be revising now?"
Hermione glared at Ron and then stormed off to her dorm.
"Honestly she's so sensitive" said Ron to Harry.
"Common, we better go to bed."
"Yeh hang on, Checkmate."
Harry and Ron climbed the stairs to their dorm laughing about Hermione and their chess game.
The next morning Harry woke up with his scar hurting. It was about 8.30am and the sky outside was a pale blue. Ron was already up opening his presents and laughing at this year's knitted jumper.
"She has finally realized that I don't like maroon."
Ron pulled a navy blue jumper over his head and stared to laugh. Harry joined in opening his own presents. He had got a box of every flavor beans form Hagrid; a book on quidditch, Hermione had given him broomstick annual, Ron had given him a tiny tree that talks and Sirius had given him a cloth that made this disappear for 15minutes and the usual present from Mrs. Weasly a jumper and so pies.
Ron was staring at a mirror which he had unwrapped a few seconds ago
"Why do you have a mirror, Ron?" Asked Harry with surprise.
"No idea. Don't even no who sent it."
"Well what does it do?"
