ello! So, Reviews? Please? I mean, I have updated so much dudes and dudetts! Please? Pretty please? With scary black cherries on top?


She laughed, "I saw that you made friends with the Weasley twins?" She said, smirking slightly at me. I shrugged.

"I suppose."

"I think they feel like your another little sister, kind of like they have a feeling of protection over you or something." I looked over to where the twins were leaned in, whispering about prank plans, no doubt.

"Yeah."

"Well, Happy Christmas, Mione! I'll see you after break!" I said, giving her a hug.

"Happy Christmas, Rita, I'll make sure to write!" She said as I lugged my trunk onto the train.

I sighed and walked slowly along the corridor to the very last train compartment. I was sure to be bored over break, what with no quidditch, barely any schoolwork, and no way to laze around outside. I felt slightly bad for Harry, at the last game against Hufflepuff his broom had been entirely pulverized.

I slide the door open and put my trunk up, before pulling out my book and taking a seat.


"Rita! Oh dear, I'm so glad to be able to to see you after so long, it's been quite lonely at the house." Tonks said, enveloping me in tight hug. I hugged her back before grabbing up my trunk again, and grabbing her hand as she apparated back to the house.

I walked in to find the house exactly as it had been. I looked at Tonks questionably.

"I thought maybe you would want something to do while we were stuck here. You know, give you something to take your mind off everything." She said softly.

"Oh. Right."

"So... How has school been? Has the Potter boy been any nicer lately? What about Weasley?" I shook my head.

"Ronald's just as snooty to me as he always is, and Harry seems to hate my guts more with every passing day, but Hermione has got my marks way up, I'm almost the third smartest Gryffindor in our year." I said, draping my cloak over the back of the kitchen chair. There was a kettle screaming on the stove, and I pulled out two cups.

"Great! With Miss Granger's help you should be getting right up there with the Ravenclaws!" She said excitedly. I laughed a little and shook my head.

"I wouldn't push it that far, Tonks..." She poured some tea in each of our cups and sat down at the small circular table across from me.

"So... That's all, then?" She asked, "Nothing else exciting?"

"Well, I'm friends with the twins now- the Weasley twins- and we-mostly them- pranked Snape..." I said, my hands wrapped around the warm tea cup as I stared out the window at the steady snowfall.

"Really? Usually I would be dissapointed, but he's a bit of a wanker... What did you do?" She asked a hint of a smile slowly creeping across her face.

"Well, I helped them make a potion to change his hair color, and they snuck it in his drink. It made his hair like a rainbow, it was pretty wicked." I said. Looking out at the heavy snow reminded me of that dog that had hung around this summer.

Poor thing, probably freezing out there.
