I was woken up early by Ginny running in from her dorm and jumping on my bed and shouting "Hermione! Wake up, it's Christmas!"

"Oh, Hi Gin. Merry Christmas"

"I brought up my presents so we could open ours together, then we can go say hi to the boys."

She picked up a brightly wrapped present off my pile, handed it to me and beamed. "Open this first it's from me." Before I did I pulled the one from me out of Ginny's pile and handed it to her.

"Wow thanks for the eagle feather quill Gin, it's really nice and I needed a new one."

"No problem, I love the earrings, thanks."

I got the usual jumper and basket of mince pies from Mrs Weasley, this year's one was green with a quill on it, from Hagrid I got some treacle which would need softening over the fire. Harry bought me a planner dating from the first of March to the end of June. Everyday had several one hour slots so I could plan my revision for every single day individually, I could even put in which specific area of each subject I would study, at the back I could fill in my exam time table. Luna had given me a year's subscription to the Quibbler, which now printed factual articles and news. Neville had given me a young Mimbulus Mimbletonia which he had got from his original plant as he knew I had taken a huge interest in the very rare plant, he had included care instructions.

At the bottom of the pile was an unlabeled package I had saved until last because I thought it was from Blaise. I opened it excitedly intrigued to know what he had got me to find a book on how to become and register to be an animagus along with an application form. It was from Ron, there was a note attached.

Dear Hermione,

I originally bought this for you for your birthday but I was too angry to give it to you, I figured you would like the challenge; maybe you could help us once you achieve it. Anyway I think I owe you an apology, I've been a jerk all year and when I got over you you told me about Lavender. I shouted some horrible things and I want you to know I didn't mean any of them. Lavender tried to kiss Harry last night while Ginny and I were talking. I've been a real idiot and I have been to stubborn to admit it, it was only last night when I realised how much I cared about you getting hurt that I brought myself to admit that. I'm sorry.

Ron

I ran downstairs to find the boys waiting for us in the common room, Ron was eating a chocolate frog and watching the picture of himself on the card behave in a very Ron like way. Before he could say anything I sprinted up to him and gave him a huge hug. " 'Mione!" He shouted. I just laughed and said "Apology accepted."


I woke up and looked around relieved to find the other boys had left and I was alone in my dorm, I smiled at the sight of Hermione's writing on the top present on my pile. I moved it aside so I could open it last; I wanted to give my present to her in person.

I opened the usual presents from my family but before I opened Hermione's a grey owl flew in through the window and collapsed on the floor moulting. It was carrying a package but I didn't recognise the writing, I opened it with caution in case Hermione's friends had decided I wasn't to be trusted after all. I found a large quantity of home baked mince pies which I eyed suspiciously, a hand knitted indigo jumper with a coffee bean on it and a note.

Dear Blaise

My name is Molly Weasley, every one calls me Molly, I assume you know my son who is on your year Ronald Weasley and my daughter Ginevra who is the year below. I have heard the news that you and Hermione are now together. I would like to welcome you into the family and you are welcome at the Burrow with Hermione. I heard you like coffee; I hope you like the jumper and enjoy the mince pies. Merry Christmas.

Mrs Molly Weasley

I smiled as I pulled on the jumper which was very warm and fitted me perfectly. I gasped as I opened Hermione's present; the paper was beautiful and of very high quality, it could only be muggle a few charms to protect it and stop wrinkling and blotting it would be perfect.

I walked into the great hall to find that there were only two tables in the middle and all the houses were mixed in together. I smiled when I saw that Hermione had saved me a place next to her, I walked over and joined them.

"Blimey, he's got a Weasley jumper!" Exclaimed Ron, I noticed he was wearing an orange one with a cannon and two C's on it, Ginny's was purple with a bat on it. Hermione and Harry were also wearing them, Harry's was red with the Elder Wand on it.

"They're a Weasley tradition." Explained Ginny. "Mum knits them every year for everyone in the family. Me, Dad, Ron, George, Charlie, Bill and even Percy though we don't know why. You should have seen it when I was in first year, there was seven people wearing them." There was a pause as everyone remembered that Fred was one of those seven people.

"How come I've got one?"

"Well obviously mum now considers you family."

After lunch we went for a snowball fight then I was invited back to the Gryffindor common room for some of Hagrid's treacle and some hot chocolate. I said goodbye to everyone and Hermione came outside with me to say goodnight when I instructed her to close her eyes. When I was sure she wasn't looking I put a gold necklace around her neck, there was a gold heart with Hermione engraved on it and a ruby on one side and other side had an emerald and Blaise. "You can open your eyes now."

"Oh wow Blaise it's beautiful." She gasped, I said goodnight and was just about to walk down the corridor when I couldn't move no matter how hard I tried. "Magic Mistletoe." She laughed, I smiled as she leant in to kiss me and free me "The perfect end to the perfect day." I murmured.
