A/N: Well, long time no see. Mmm.. the joy of having technical difficulties. Anyway.. hello, all. I was greatly inspired by Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, the fact that you can write fanfiction for the Bible, and.. well.. no, that's it. Just so you get the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory references..

Diclaimer: I do not own the Harry Potter world or anything related.

Three Cheers For Whatever We Decide Deserves Three Cheers!

"Christmas break! Finally!" Sirius shouted gleefully, waking up the three remaining boys in the dormitory.

"We're quite aware, thank you, Sirius," James said somewhat grumpily, having just been woken up.

"If you're so aware, celebrate with me! All of you! Up Remus, up Peter!" It took about half an hour for everyone to finally get out of bed, much to Sirius' disappointment. However, once everyone did, Sirius climbed on top of his bed and said to the three boys that were standing on the floor, "Good-morning, Star-Shine! The Earth says, 'Hello!' Now, let's go eat."

Remus exchanged a bewildered-yet-amused glance with James before heading out after Sirius with Peter trailing behind.

"Finally, it's break! No more homework!" Heather shouted in the Great Hal at breakfast, happily.

"For two weeks, anyway. Then it's right back to normal," Lily commented, picking at her plate of eggs, bacon, and toast.

"Who's all staying for Christmas, anyway?" Maren asked, and then proceeding to chew on a piece of bacon.

"I'm not," Heather said.

"Nor me," Kelly said.

"Me either," Joanne replied.

"Really? None of you? I am," Lily said frowning slightly.

"Oh, Lily, you won't be alone! I'm staying, too!" Maren said happily. "But.. why are you staying? I'm staying because my dad'll be busy with the Ministry.."

Lily shrugged. "I do miss home, but I'd like to see what it's like around here at Christmas. I mean, they have all the decorations up and it looks really pretty.. Curiosity keeps me here, I suppose."

"Always the curious one," Kelly replied, chuckling softly.

"So, who's all sticking around here for Christmas?" James asked his friends.

"Me, for sure," Sirius answered quickly.

"My partner in crime, how wonderful. What about you, Remus? Peter?"

"I'm staying, too," Remus responded. "As far as I know, my parents are going to be visiting some family of mine in France."

"Really? Cool. Peter? What about you?"

"I'm going home. Mum's always overly worried 'bout me."

"Bummer," Sirius said.

A/N: Well, a short and not that fantastic of a chapter, and I'm aware I didn't answer any of the questions from the previous chapter.. but all in good time, I will. Next chapter, I'm planning on. I just had to get all of this out of the way.. and now it is, so now we can find out if James and Sirius will get McGonagall up a tree and if Remus will join. And if Lily and Maren will meet Hagrid. And just why Peter was with those Gryffindor prefects (maybe.. I haven't quite got my thoughts in the right place about that, yet.)

As for reviews.. I love you all who reviewed/will review. It means a lot to me.

Well, read, review, and.. that's about it. :insert smiley face here:
