Ch. 15
Rosie's birthday has come before I know it, my little sister in 12 years old now. I give her the broom that mum, dad and I bought. Ginny gives Rosie a diary, she looks at me and says don't worry it's safe. Hermione gives her changing color ink, and Ron gives her sweets. Lucas comes over to her with a card
"It's not much but I made it myself." he says shly
She opens it and you see hand painted roses on it, she jumps up and gives him a hug. She looks around out everyone "thank you all for the gifts they are great. Harry when can I try out my new broom?"
I give a little laugh "After qudditch practice alright. Speaking of which we need to get down to breakfast. Leave your broom up here Rosie, I'll grab it when I get mine okay."
Her and Lucas bounce out of the portait hole, I look over a Ginny "Your good." she tells me, I summon Dobby. We hear a crack shortly after he looks around and sees me. He gives a deep bow
"Harry Potter, what can Dobby do for you sir."
"Er Dobby, I need you to do me a favor please."
"Yes sir anything you would like."
"Today is Rosie's 12th birthday, and I was wondering if it would be possible for you to make her a cake. Red velvet is her favorite with cream cheese icing. We wouldn't need it until after dinner, adn we would have up here in the common room, I'd think enough to feed all of Gryffoindor would be enough. I mean most likely everyone would want a piece."
"Oh course Harry Potter, Dobby will get right on it! What would you like it to say sir?"
"Happy 12th birthday Rosie, and maybe some roses on it, she loves roses."
"Yes, sir Dobby will get some of the other house eleves to help too."
"Thank you Dobby."
He gives me another deep bow, and the disapperated. I grab Ginny's hand and we walk down to breakfast. Once we get to breakfast, I see Lavander and Ron, and Hermione about ten seat away from them. We go and sit by Hermione cause none of us can stand Lavander and how she can't keep herself off of Ron or as she calls him 'Won-Won' Hermione looks up at us, she pulls out some letters and hands them to me and Ginny.
"Slughorn is having a Christmas party, we are allowed to bring a guest." she tells us
"Great another party with all these people who are Slughorn's favorite, only people I can stand in this group are you two. So who will you be bringing Hermione?"
"I'll probably go stag, I've already been asked out."
"By who and why did you say no?"
"McGlaggen, I think that explains everything."
We shake our heads, me and Hermione head to D.A.D.A. As we are walking to class this scared little first year walks up to me.
"Hi, Harry I was told to deliver this to you."
"Thank you..."
"Rachel."
"Thank you Rachel."
She is trying to push her wat through all the sixth years, I go up to her
"Which class are you going too?"
"Chrams."
I tell her the fastest way to get there, she runs off to class after thanking me. Well time to go deal with Snape, at least its the end of November and will be going on Christmas break soon. Today we are contining our lesson on unspoken spells. I team up with Hermione, which isn't to bad, both of us have nailed down not saying spells out loud. Snape comes over "Well Potter your sister is doing extremly well in my class. How are you coming along?"
"Great Professor, and Rosie has been studying hard for all her classes."
"Well lets see how your studies are going."
We square each other other, I am waiting for him to make a move. Finally his wand comes up right away I yell Pretgo! In my head, he sends a cruse at me and it flys back on him, he soars across the room.
"Detention Potter!"
"Why Professor, did I do something wrong? The assignment is to block spells, and since I did not know which spell you were going to send at me, I had no knowledge that it would send you flying across the room."
He lets the detention go, and tells us to leave the classroom. I head over to Ginny's class, and wait for her to get out. The day seemes to drag on, finally it is dinner. Everyone is talking, Rosie bounce up to me and says she is having an amazing day. Her flying class is going great, Professor Hooche says she is a natural like me and dad. Charms and Potions is her best class, she gets that from Mum, she likes D.A.D.A but not a lot she tells me. She can't stop talking about classes. After the food is taken away we head up to the tower.
"Hey Harry!" yells Rosie
"Yha Rosie?"
"So now that I am in school, I can't get my birthday piggyback ride?"
I let out a loud laugh and beand down for her to climb on. I tell her to close her eyes, once we get to the portiat hole, most of Gyrffindor is back at the tower. They all yell Happy Birthday to Rosie. I look around Dobby as decorated the place also. Rosie opens her eyes, she jumps down with delight, and runs over to the cake. She looks at me, I tell her what I did. She ask if Dobby can come up here. She gives him a call, she runs over to him and gives him a hug. We sing Happy Birthday and everyone gets cake. Rosie makes sure Dobby gets a piece too, after the cake everyone is going up to bed. Including Rosie, she runs over to me and tells me this has been the best birthday ever.
