CHAPTER SEVENTY FIVE: 𝐀 𝐒𝐋𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐋𝐘 𝐇𝐎𝐋𝐋𝐘 𝐉𝐎𝐋𝐋𝐘 𝐂𝐇𝐑𝐈𝐒𝐓𝐌𝐀𝐒
▬▬▬❦▬▬▬Christmas Eve, to say.. was quite unexpected. I expected it to be merry since I haven't got a great Christmas in years. There was the traditional egg nogs, the delicious (not really) fruitcakes, and the soft calming music. I liked it this way, but I preferred the noisy and fun Christmas Eve celebrations I used to have, my mom would invite her friends while I invited mine.
I missed it so much.
The Christmas Eve last night however, was what I could call an understatement. The foods and the music were pretty great and I had a bit of fun with Harry and the others.. but there was the tense atmosphere and the hidden bickers between Molly and Fleur.. all because of Celestina Warbeck.
The blonde beauty began to imitate Molly's favourite singer, which was really unpleasant for Molly.
So we took that as a sign to go to bed, I didn't want to be unappreciative.. but I really expected this Christmas to be fun.
But what else should I expect? I am inside of a fictional universe where a lot of bad things happen.. that's not new for me anymore. The problem is that, these days I haven't felt the slight happiness I was looking for.
Maybe I should just not put my hopes up.
It was now Christmas morning, and I sat up from the bed and turned at a snoring Draco. I didn't decide to wake him up because he stayed up all night with Tonks and the twins while I slept pretty early.
I got myself out of bed, feeling the cold floor beneath me. I looked next to the door and found my unopened presents, I decided to open it today since I feel so drained last night.
I wore the green sweater Molly made for me with a red "N" on it. I wore my sleepers as I gathered all of the gifts I had gotten from everyone. I heard loud chatters from the bedroom next to ours, I peeked on it and saw Ron and Harry gathered on their carpeted floor, teared-apart gift wrappers everywhere.
I quickly got my gifts, deciding to join them on opening the presents. I almost yelped when one of the gift bags almost fell down on the floor, if it wasn't for my foot. I hopped the way to the next room, before placing my gifts gently on the floor.
"She can't honestly think I'd wear- oh, hey Nicolette!" Ron's frown turned to a smile when he saw me enter their room.
"Heard you two opening your gifts, so I decided to join in." I said, before sitting between them as I shut the door. I could see Harry biting his lip to control his laughter. I followed his gaze and saw that he was looking at Ron's hand that had a gold necklace on it that had a label that said "My Sweetheart."
