Today we were going home for Christmas break. I told Harry, Hermione, Ron, Ginny, and Draco to come and visit.

"Bring the rest of your family too, okay Ron?" I said. "You too Hermione." Ron and Hermione nodded.
"You'll come to my manor the day after Christmas Day, right?" Draco asked me. "We're having another ball a few days after that like last year. You can stay at the manor until then." I hesitated for a minute. I knew that the others couldn't come because Draco's parents hated Ron's family because they were poor, Harry because he was Voldemort's enemy, and Hermione and the twins because they were muggle-borns. I knew that that meant that they would never want to meet my mom, dad, and Bryson. I didn't want to be there with him alone.
"Can Cory come?" I asked. Draco looked at Cory. Cory looked back at him with a cool gaze. Draco shrugged.
"If he wants," he replied. I smiled.
"I'll come," I said. "Even if he doesn't." Draco smiled and kissed me. I kissed him back and then watched as my siblings got into Professor Dumbledore's fireplace and one by one used the Floo Powder to go home. I hugged Harry and the others and told them not to forget to come to visit.

"You can even come on Christmas Day," I said. "That would be really cool if you did. You too Draco. If you do then I'll come to your manor then" They nodded and I stepped into the fireplace.
"Marcin House!" I said dropping the Floo Powder. The last thing I saw was Draco.

I'm so stupid! I thought.

On Christmas Day the Weasleys, Hermione, Harry, and Draco came over. Bryson looked like he had never seen so many people come into our house by Floo Powder before. He hadn't so I wasn't surprised when he asked me if more were coming after the Weasley's arrived. They had come last because there were so many of them.
"No, that's everyone," I said. "Hey, Hermione, where are your parents?"

"Oh, they had a party to go to or something like that," she replied. "I hate going to those things so they let me come here. They said to tell everyone Happy Christmas, though." We all sat down around the living room and opened presents. Harry got me Golden Snitch charm bracelet.
"You really love that thing, don't you?" I teased as I slipped it onto my right wrist. Harry shrugged and grinned. The toy Snitch that he had gotten me last year flitted past him and he snatched it from the air.
"Seekers," I said playfully rolling my eyes. Harry let it go and Draco caught it. For a few minutes all of us kids took turns catching it and letting it go again.
"Okay kids," mom said. "Finish with your presents." I picked up the one that Hermione had gotten me.
"Another book!" I said as I pulled off the wrapping paper. "I should have known, thanks Hermione!" The book she had gotten me was the sequel to the one she had gotten me last year. This one was called Artimus the Animagus: Kir's Pack. Hermione smiled.
"I'm reading the series too," she said. "We can have discussions about this one when you finish it." I grinned. She would never change! Ron got me a model of a wolf that, like the lion he had gotten me last year, really moved and howled. I set the wolf on my knee where it curled up.
"It's so cute," I said. "Thanks Ron." He smiled at me. His mom made me another sweater, this time with a howling wolf on it, and she gave me a tin of fudge as well. Ron's older brothers also got me presents even though they had never even met me. His brother Charlie, who worked with dragons in Romania, got me a necklace with a red dragon scale pendant. Bill, who worked at the wizard bank, Gringotts in Egypt, got me an Egyptian quill.

"You guys really didn't have to get me...I mean..." I stammered. Bill and Charlie laughed.

"Really it's okay," Bill said. "We don't mind." I smiled at them. Fred and George got me free samples of some of the products from their joke shop. I rolled my eyes at them.
"Promoting the shop are you?" I teased. Fred nodded.
"Works really well," he said. Ginny gave me a really pretty pair of hair clips. I gave all of them their presents along with really big hugs. I sat on the floor again. Draco tapped my shoulder.
"I didn't forget you," I said handing him his present. Draco smirked and handed my mine.
"You'll love it," he said. I smiled and opened the small green box. Inside were two bracelets. One was silver with ruby beads and one was silver with emerald beads. I gasped.
"Draco...I..." I stammered. Draco took them out of the box. He slipped the ruby one onto my right wrist and the emerald one onto my left.
"Did I do that right?" he asked although by his tone I knew that he knew that he had. I nodded.
"You know me very well," I said. Draco opened his present, which was silver pentagram on a black cord. In the middle of the pentagram was half of a ruby and half of an emerald. Draco put it on. The cord was short so that the pentagram rested against his throat.

"Thank you," he said. I smiled at him.
"You're welcome," I replied. Draco wrapped his arms around me and I leaned back against him.

Why do I love him so much? I wondered. With all the things he's been doing to me. Why do I still love him so much? Once everyone had opened their gifts we ate lunch and then Fred, George, Ron, Harry, Hermione, Draco, Jordyn, Taylor, Ginny, and I went and played Wizards Chess, Gobstones, and Exploding Snap. We invited Cory, Bill, and Charlie to play as well but they wanted to stay and talk with the adults.

"It can't be much fun," I said as we worked on building our house of cards. "I mean, not with mum and dad sitting right there. They can't talk about anything magical or they'll get confused and, no offense guys, but your dad doesn't know much about muggle stuff." We finished the house and it exploded.
"He likes to pretend he does though," Ginny said. After we got tired of playing games Draco asked me if I wanted to go to his manor now.
"The others haven't left yet," I protested. "Wait until they do, okay?" Of course as soon as I said that Mr. Weasley said that they were going to go home now. Ron told Harry and Hermione to come with them and he asked if I wanted to come too but I said that I was going to Draco's manor. When the Weasleys, Harry, and Hermione left I said goodbye to my parents and siblings and followed Draco to his house. He had gone on ahead of me to tell his parents that I was coming to stay with them.

A/N: Sorry if it's short! This part wasn't super important.
