A/N: Here we find ourselves at Christmas! Time is flying! Well, I hope you like this chapter. We get to see what everyone got each other!

Day 11

Spirits seemed to rise as the winter holidays came. Christmas was coming in a few days and that left the student body and teachers in a good mood considering everyone had a whole lot of work to do.

I started to walk down to the Great Hall to see if I could run into someone I knew. For once in my life I felt like actually having a genuine chat with someone. Then, as though I had summond someone Adam walked around the corner of the hall. He smiled with his straight white teeth and walked over to me.

"Hey! How are you?" I asked him as he put his arm over my shoulder. I could feel goose bumps rising.

"Great. And what about you?" He asked me.

I thought for a moment, "well, I guess I'm ok. Anyway, are you staying here for Christmas?" I wanted to know what his plans were.

"Nah, I'm visiting my family. Our family is very close you know."

I frowned. I had decided to stay at Hogwarts for Christmas so that I could keep a close eye on the trio. At that point was was regreating it. "Oh," I said quickly while looking away from him. "I hope you have a great time." I was trying to make my voice sound happy.

"Are you leaving?"

"Nope."

"Ohhh, if I knew then I might have stayed here-"

I cut him off. I was starting to feel guilty about making him guilty. "No no no, you go with your family and have a great time. I want you to." He went to speak again but I cut him off. Of course, it being me, it was very cute... not to mention sexy. "Have fun!"

We then chated a bit and then he waved as he went to go and chat to his mates. I looked over to see Harry, Ron and Hermione walking in my directions. I was in such a good move I bounced over in their direction and threw one of my arms over Harry and one over Ron.

They didn't seem to mind to much. "What's up?" I asked them in a peppy tone.

Harry frowned. "I have detention with Snape."

"Ouch!" I said back to him. It couldn't really be that bad after all. I thought that Snape was a pretty cool teacher besides the fact that he favors his own house more then the others. But even though I liked Snape there was something about him that I just didn't trust all the way. Oh well, not my problem anyway.

"I know," said Ron, "and tell her the rest Harry."

"Well, he wants me to come down there once a week."

"What did you do!" I asked. What could have he done to have gotten this punishment?

Hermione spoke for once. Her hair looking frizzer then ever. "He gave Snape some cheek."

"I couldn't let him talk about Sirius that way!" Cried Harry. We then had a large discussion about what had happened. And I started to notice that even though they were hicks, grubby, and never to be cool, they were good people to have as friends.

Yeah, I know, I have just been using them and to call them friends is well, you know, odd. Deep down though, very deep down, I might consider them friends. Yes, friends. To bad I would have to cut Harry off sooner or later.

Three days later Adam was gone for holiday. He had said good-bye to me and gave me a kiss farewell. The good thing was that, like I planned the trio had decided to stay. Harry told me that he was never really wanted by the muggles, Ron said that his mother and father were to busy doing other things (I wonder?) and Hermione said that she prefers to stay at Hogwarts.

To my surprise though, there were only around twenty other students who decided to stay for the holidays, leaving me to really only hang around with the Gryffindors. It was great though when Christmas had come.

I woke early in the morning by the sun streaming into my eyes. There was no point in closing the surrounding area of my bed since no one was sharing my room with me. I looked to to notice the large amount of gifts that sat on the floor awaiting me to open them. Slowly I shifted over and saw a large box to me from Adam.

At once I grabbed it and ripped off the wrapping. I fell in awe once I saw what was inside it. It was a large wool traveling cloak the color of deep blue. I had seen in the previous year when I had gone to Diagon Alley and thought that I must have it, though, at the time I got some dress robes instead. It wasn't just a traveling cloak though, if you flipped it inside out it would become an everyday cloak.

There was a card on top of it and as I wrapped the cloak around me I read it:

Dear Rosemary,

Hope your having a wonderful Christmas! I got you this cloak because when I saw it I was reminded of you! I wish to see you soon.

Love,

Adam

I couldn't believe that he had wrote love. Well, maybe I could. He was so dreamy and must be the perfect man ever known to humanity. Once I huddled inside of my new cloak I looked over to see the stack still sitting there.

There was a gift from Hermione that I opened. It was a large book intitled: The days of Fashion and their trends. I must say that it was great. I knew for some reason that she would have gotten me a book but this was great.

Next, I looked over at Harrys gift. It was in a small box and when I opened it I saw that it was a silver locket. Inscribed on the top was the my initals. Then I opened it to see that nothing was inside. It didn't surprise me though and I found it amusing. I put it around my neck and wore it with a smile upon my face.

After Harry's gife I saw Legumes. It was a box of jokes that he had no doubt had gotten it from his brother's store. Though, I was happy to see the things inside. There was a love potion, a few extendable ears, and something that made you day dream. To its side I noticed a large box from my parents.

There were the normal things inside, new clothes, make up, books, food, some jewelry, quidditch effects, and a wand kit. They also enclosed a letter that told me that once I returned from Hogwarts we would go shopping and get what I really wanted. Some people think I was spoiled. How about lucky?

I dressed myself, still with the locket and cloak on and worked my way down to the Great Hall. I was happy to notice Harry, Ron, and Hermione sitting in the large chairs next to the fire. Hermiones hideous cat sitting on her lap, but that didn't even put me in a bad mood.

"Merry Christmas!" I hollard and they all turned around and greeted me. I sat down next to them.

Harry was the first to speak, "thanks so much for the Defense Against the Dark Arts stuff."

I nodded. "No problem. I know that you would need them if you ever went to fight agains You-know-who." I had given him a book about different spells and curses along with some detecters and things to help escape. I spoke again. "Thanks for the locket. I love it."

It seemed that Harry turned a slight pink and Ron decided to speak. "Did you like mine? I though-"

"I loved it. I'm so glad I got some of those day dream...erm... stuff. I always wanted to try one before." He nodded his head with excitement.

"I thought it was great that you got me those quidditch stuff. A real improvment. Those boots will keep my feet warm, and those goggles... well, thanks!" He was very excited and Hermione thought it was her turn to speak.

"Great call on those books. I have never heard of them before-"

"I thought you hadn't they are kind of rare but very helpful." I felt a large lump in my throat. I was so happy to find that they liked my gifts. And I was happy that they had spent the time in getting me something I liked also.

At that moment I started to wonder if Adam would like what I had gotten him. I got him this wonderful necklace that shows you where you are at all time. It is impossible to get lost with it and not only that, it tells you the time, date, and the weather outside. Not only does it do that but it is beautiful with its large golden coin look and the red ruby in the middle of it.

I talked for them a while and we departred. Later that night we went down to the Great Hall to have the small Christmas Feast. When we went down there we were first to see Professor Dumbledor, then we noticed some of the other Professors like Professor McGonagall, Snape, Sprout, Flitwick, Hagrid, along with a few people from each house. We all sat down at only one table, there was no point in having all of them and it was very interesting.

Everyone was in high spirits except for Professor Snape who was quite and kept glancing at Harry and Dumbledor as though he would be able to read their minds. I of course noticed this since they had placed me right next to him. At first I thought I wouldn't mind in the least. But the truth is that he smells funny, and that he breaths very loud. Maybe because of his large honker.

"So Professor... Having a nice holiday?" I asked him while everyone chatted. He rose an eyebrow.

"What is it to you Williams?"

"I just though-"

"Ah, you thought that I would bear my soul to you? Talk to you as though you were an equal?" Snape retorted as he cut me off. What a royal jerk. His equal? I must say I am above his equal! How dare he! This is the point where my favorite teacher became my least favorite teacher.

"Well, Professor I just though since you are sitting here not speaking a work and gazing at Dumbledor and Harry-"

That jerk cut me off. "Do not speak of things you do not know Miss. Williams. I suggest that you continue to eat your food and not speak to me."

What nerve! I couldn't rightfully kill him in front of everyone like I so wished I could. I then leaned into him and whispered something his his ear. "Do not underestamate me."

He rose an eyebrow. Did he think of me as a threat? Or did he really underestamate me? With a smug look upon his face he spoke again. "Ah, but I would not want you to underestamate me."

We said nothing more and then once everyone was done celebrating they left the Great Hall. Harry smiled at his friends. "That was nice wasn't it?

"Look what we got," Ron said to me as he held up a few bottles and a sack of something.

"What is it?" I asked him.

"It's a bunch of food. They gave it to us! The house elves wanted us to have it so that we could celebrate on our own." I have never seen someone so happy to see food in me whole intire life.

At one point on our departure stopped and sat on a few steps and talked. Since they were not permitted into the Ravenclaw common room or I of theirs. Hermione said she would be back as she ran to the library to get something and Ron soon found himself running to the lavatory. Leaving Harry and I together. Did they plan this or was it just coinsidence?

"So..." Harry started.

I thought this the perfect time to make my move. "Harry, all of that food they gave Ron... Did you get any?" He seemed surprised by this and nodded.

"Yeah, they gave each of us a bag. See?" He then held out his bag to show the many cakes and bottles of pumpkin juice inside. I smiled.

"Cool. I really wanted to talk to you alone to tell you how much I loved your gift," I told him as he stared into my eyes. I slowly grabbed in pocket a small vile. Inside was a deadly potion that I had made myself. He seemed to not notice. I moved in closer, and at once I gave him a large hug.

He didn't move. Just sat there in my embrace. Then at once he started to pat my back. From behind I took my vile and poured its contents into the bottles of pumpkin juice he had in his bag. As soon as the dead was done I quickly broke his embrace. "Oh it was just such a nice gift! Look, Hermione and Ron's back!"

And so they were Hermione and Ron came back together with grins on their faces. "I better go... it's been a long day." I told them as I stood up and departed. I ran all the way to the Ravenclaw common room and saw that no one was here. Then I bolted up to my bed and hopped ontop of it with excitement. I did it! I must have killed Harry Potter!

The next day...

I woke up with great happness and dressed myself. My face broke into a large smile as I skipped down to the common room and out to see that there was screaming down a corridor. I took this moment to skip closer to the coridor and once I got there I tryed to surpress a smile.

Harry Potter was laying on the ground, Hermione holding him in her arms. "HELP! GET A PROFESSOR!" I noticed Ron run past me and that there was a small huddle of students around Harry and Hermione.

It had appeared that many of them have returned back from holiday. I then used my best acting abilities and moved to them. "Oh my god! What happened?" I said as I pushed my way through the crowd and kneeled next to Harry.

"I don't know!" Cried Hermione. Large tears were rolling out of her eyes down on Harry's robes. "We were walking and he said he didn't feel good." There was a large sniffle. "And then he just... just... .fell!"

I took my fingers and felt for a pulse. "He's breathing!" I said to her. I acted as though I was thankfull, the truth was that I wished he would just die already. The posion I had put in there was deadly and would soon kill him around two minutes.

There was panick as one minute went by. I was feeling lucky at this moment untill I saw someone that made my heart skip a beat. Professor Snape came running to them. "What has happened here?" He asked looking down at Harry.

"Oh Professor! Harry's been poisioned! Help him! Pleas help him!" Hermione cried.

"There is no need to be crying Miss. Granger. I'm sure he will not die..." Snape said with the curling of his lip.

"Help him!" She yelled.

"Well, Miss. Granger, you being the perfect know it all I would think that you could help him," he told her. If he interfeared with my plan I would really have to kill him.

"Professor!" She yelled. There was mumbling in the crowd. Then a second voice was heard.

"Professor!" yelled Professor McGonagall with Ron on her side. "Why haven't you helped Mr. Potter to-"

"I was just helping him Minerva when you just showed up," he then took out a vile from his pocket and started to dump it into Harry's mouth. I closed my eyes. This was not happening! They had just foilded my plan... AGAIN!

Harry opened his eyes and Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape then carried him away to the hospital wing. SHIT! They just ruined everything!

A/N: A special thanks to my dear Mole (aka Darkprediction) who is not only an author but a friend who I lurve so very much. Not that I don't lurve all of you readers! Anyway, what do you think of our dear Rosemary? Will she really kill Harry Potter?
