Chapter 26 - Out in a Puff

Alice POV

My nightly excursions continued. I never spotted Draco and Sarah again though.

Sarah wasn't in class yesterday. She was with Draco.

Weird thing is that they are cousins! It would be gross if they were dating.

They are annoying me.

What are they up to?

I walked in to the school with Ginny.

We had left for a walk before getting on with searching through catalogues for Christmas presents.

Professor Dumbledore decided that it wasn't safe for us to go in to Hogsmead this Christmas.

I don't think anyone would have went anyway.

I have been invited to the Wealeys for Christmas with Hermione.

It would be the best Christmas ever!

Dumbledore sent piles of catalogues up to the common room.

We had to write down what we wanted and with the money take it to Professor McGonagall.

I had to make sure no one saw what I was looking at.

They couldn't know what I was getting them. It was a surprise.

I had a few ideas for my friends.

I mentally made a list.

Hermione - books

Ron - mini broom maker

Ginny - design your own dress kit

Fred- Joke book

George - Joke book

Rest of the Weasleys - Chocolates

The common room was full of red faced people.

It was warm and cosy with the fire burning in the background.

The puffy chairs were glowing in the fire light.

Outside the first snow shower was drifting to the ground.

I sunk in to a chair.

Life was going good for me.

No life was going GREAT for me.

For the first time in my life I was excited for Christmas.

It was exactly a month away. Just a month!

Hermione came rushing over.

"Alice! Alice!" she screamed at me.

"What Hermione?" I asked.

She came over to me and sat down.

"You know how we are going to the burrow for Christmas?"

I nodded.

"and how we were struggling to decide what to get every one?"

I nodded.

"Don't tell anyone I told you this! I am deeply against the idea! Ok?"

I nodded again.

"Well the twins have discovered a passage in to Hogsmead and they are going to take you and Ginny with them!" She finished.

"REALLY!" I yelled.

"SHHHHHHHHH!" Hermione replied.

I laughed.

"I have made you a list and gathered together some money for you to get some things. Let's just say a surprise is in the pipeline."

She handed me a folded up piece of paper with a muggle money bag attached to it.

"Your wish is my command!" I mocked.

Hermione gave me a startled look.

"What on earth!" I giggled at her face.

Ginny came running over.

Her red hair billowing behind her as she dodged through our fellow Gryffindor's.

"BIG NEWS, BIG NEWS!" She screamed.

"What Gin?" Hermione asked.

"DIAGON ALLY HAS BEEN ATTACKED BY DEATH EATERS!"

A puff of wind flew through the common room blowing the fire out.

The common room fell silent.
