Invitations

December was fast approaching and the students were making plans for their Christmas holidays. Realizing that he hadn't gone a day without Scorpius in almost three months, Albus wrote to his parents requesting that Scorpius could visit. Scorpius, of course, was delighted.

Dear Mum and Dad

I was really hoping you might allow me to have a friend stay over during the Christmas holidays. You let James bring friends over, so I'm really hoping I can too. And its just one friend. . . the only one I have, really. Please please say yes. See you soon for Christmas!!

Lots of love,

Al

Albus sent his letter with a school owl as he didn't have one of his own. He eagerly awaited his parents' reply, sincerely hoping that he would be able to see Scorpius during the break. It arrived with the morning post while Albus and Scorpius were at breakfast the next morning.

Dear Son

Of course, our home is always open to your friends.

Dad and Mum

They never wrote long letters to each other as they corresponded so often. Albus excitedly informed Scorpius that he was welcome to stay with them for a while over Christmas. Scorpius was not sure his father would allow him to spend time away from the family over the festive season.

Salutations, Dad!

I've been invited to stay at a friend's place during the holiday. I miss you and Luey very much, so I'm quite looking forward to coming home. . . however I really would like to go to my friend's. Maybe for just a few days or a week? Please reply a.s.a.p. so I can tell Albus I can make it, and arrange transportation.

I'm doing very well in Potions, as you well know, and my teacher says I may have a future in it! Isn't that great, Dad? You would know what an immense compliment that is if you knew her. . . Anyway, I'm going to brew you this really awesome potion I've mastered as soon as I'm home.

Can't wait to see you. All my love,

Scor

Scorpius sent his request via his Eagle owl the very same day, and received a reply that very evening.

Scorpius

I really wouldn't like to cut our very limited family time short, but as you know, I have difficulty in saying no to you, you manipulative little bugger. If it makes you happy, it's yours. If you would give me more details about this Albus boy, I will personally make the necessary arrangements with his parents. I'm not sure I trust your organization skills (said with love).

You have a future in absolutely anything you want because you are brilliant, and will succeed no matter what. And if you don't, I'll support you forever. We have enough money anyway, Merlin knows. I'm looking forward to your display of skill and talent.

Love Dad

Scorpius immediately sent a response, detailing Albus and his family tree. Draco Malfoy almost fell off his chair when he realized his son's best friend was a Potter.

AN: Okay so we know that the child of Malfoy is going to spend some time at the Potter residence. . . Dun dun dun!!!
