It was the night of Christmas eve where everyone was home for Christmas with their families except for Paige who didn't want to go back this year so decided to stay at Hogwarts this year. So, Paige was curled up on the Ravenclaw common room sofa seeing as she was the only one there, she had a navy-coloured blanket covering her body as her head lay back on the plush sofa the faint sounds of sleigh bells filling her mind. Paige lay in a tranquil slumber memories of her childhood Christmas playing through her mind.
Two-year-old Paige toddled into her parents' bedroom on Christmas morning, she tugged on her father's hand that lay of the bed to wake him up, ''Morning my little princess you excited.'' Her father asked picking her up and Paige nodded her head because she still couldn't talk yet ''Of course she is Ambrose she's two.'' Alma Astor said stepping out of bed and putting a hand on her very swollen stomach ''He's in there your little brother.'' Ambrose tells his daughter that he has rested on his hip. The happiest memory Paige had of Christmas because all of the others after that were shambles and then there was the saddest memory. Paige sat in front of three graves her baby brothers, her mother's, and her fathers ''I'm so sorry I let you guys down and now you can't be here for Christmas the special time of the year we all loved but now I'm stuck with the wicked witch of the west for Christmas I don't even get a bit of Christmas dinners anymore, I just wish you guys were here.'' Paige says tear strolling down her face before getting up and leaving.
Paige woke up with her cheeks damp with tears and her body drenched in sweat, it's only one o'clock in the morning when Paige checks the clock, so she makes herself a cup of chamomile tea ''It's only memories time to build some new one, maybe you'll get a boyfriend and have memories with him on holiday.'' Paige whispers to herself, pulling out her diary to write in.
Paige looked up at the clock again and it was five o'clock this time, so she decided why not go through her gifts. The first one she saw had hot pink wrapping paper and a bright purple bow it's obvious who it was from, Beatrice. Paige got down to the last present that was bigger than the rest and it was covered in silver wrapping paper and a matching bow. Inside the box sat two oversized sweaters, a stack of the books she wanted and a ring with her birthstone in it and mixed in with it was a note that said, 'hey princess since I won't see you this Christmas here's your presents so merry christmas, love from Sirius.' Paige remembers telling him about the ring she saw and her favourite books and how her favourite thing ever is oversized sweater but they weren't brand new they belonged to Sirius and smelt like him to which was a comforting scent for Paige.
