It was the day that everyone that wanted to go home for Christmas went home, I stayed at Hogwarts because I wanted to spend time with my friends that were staying.
"Purple, are you not going home?"
"No Sirius, I don't wanna intrude on my aunt's time with my uncle, has James, Remus and Peter gone home for Christmas?"
"James and Peter have, Remus is staying, is any of your motley Hufflepuff crew staying?"
"Alex is, Thalia is going home for Christmas, though if anyone is a motley crew, it is my motley Gryffindor crew"
"My feelings are hurt Purple"
"You're joking"
"No, I'm Sirius"
"If you're serious than I'm the minister of magic"
"You'd be a fair minister of magic"
"Thanks Sirius, where is Remus?"
"I dunno"
"Cause that's helpful, never mind, he's coming"
I waved at Remus, he waved back, you know, like friends do.
"Hey Remus"
"Hey, aren't you going home Libby?"
"Nah, my aunt needs some time with my uncle, and you two need some non Gryffindor mates"
"Are you talking about Malfoy"
"Yes, I'm talking about Alex, he could do with a couple more friends"
