The boys and I are staying with the Potters for New Year because Papa is out, got called by a friend in need, though he'll make sure to give me extras on my birthday.
"So, what's your New Year's resolution?" James asked us. We're in my house for now since Euphemia and Fleamont couldn't need extra mischief on New Year and didn't want to ruin their surprise.
"Since when did we became Americans?" Remus asked, reading a book he borrowed from our mini library.
"Since never." Peter said as he and Sirius were playing exploding snap dragons which he totally KO'ed Sirius.
"How a bout a tour in your house?" Sirius suggested as he lost in another round with Peter. "Heard that Curly is dying to see your home."
"Actually she meant the library. And I'm guessing you don't know the word 'privacy'." I said, pocketing my supply of Vanilla Cubes.
"Whose in?" James asked raising both of his hands.
"Don't you -Oh I don't know - live here?" Remus asked. Making James put down his one arm.
"Buzzkill." I heard James mutter under his breath making me pinch his side.
"He's right." I said in a sing-song voice making him, mimic my voice. "Okay let's start from the attic." I clapped my hands and lead the way.
"The attic?!" Peter shrieked and looked like he wasn't letting go of the arm chair.
"You know normal people starts by the door." Sirius joked earning a pinch to the side from me. "Ow! What is it with you and pinching?!" He walked behind me and let Remus walk by my side.
"Well, normal is an understanding." James muttered. "We're wizards for Godrick's sake!" He pointed out and saw me glare at him. "And witch." He added sheepishly.
"Okay I want Peter to be the one who opens the attic door." I said and gave him a little push. A cylindrical staircase that leads up to the attic quite similar to Cinderella's room.
"Me?!" He squeaked and hesitated to turn the door know. The door opened with a loud creak and we're greeted by tons of boxes.
"Wow, never knew boxes exists!" Sirius said sarcastically and earned a pinch by yours truly. "Siriusly! Ow!" He laughed at his own pun and clutched his side.
"Wimp" I muttered, I gestured for them to come in.
"Woah." Remus opened a box and saw different music box, cranked one up and let it play Winter Sonata.
