"And like moon
we must go through
pases of emptiness
to feel full again"

       Emily woke up and she was the first one to be awake in her dorm. She was still half asleep, but when she looked at the calendar that was placed on her drawer she immediately jumped out of her bed. It was Christmas. It was a Friday so she run into the bathroom, dressed in her uniform and brushed her hair. (A/N: not me realizeing that it's winterbreak and they don't have classes in the middle of writing. I'm lazy so I probably won't rewrite this one or two sentences so just imagine her an outfit that fits her hair.) Today she didn't want to wear it down like she usually did so she put it up into a bun and put a yellow and black ribbon around it. When she came out of the bathroom her other roommates started to wake up. She wished everyone Merry Christmas and then run down to the common room. In the middle of the common room stood an enormous Christmas tree decorated in all gold and white decoration. Under the tree were numerous presents. Emily walked up to the tree and searched for her presents. There was one from her aunt, one from Molly Weasly, George, Fred, Ginny, Hanna, Bridget, Angelina, Katie and Alice and surpriseingly one from Hermione, who she befriended with a few weeks ago in the library. Last night Emily brought the presents she made for her friends to the Owlerly so the house elfs could deliver it to their common rooms/ homes.

    Firslty she opened the present from her aunt. It contained a letter and a small wooden box with beautiful carvings on it. Firstly she read the letter. It was about how sorry her aunt was for not being with her at Christmas and a little story how her mission was going. Emily exitedly read the lines of the amazing adventures. In the envelope there were two pictures as well. They were pictures about her parents when they were young. In the first one there stood a girl with her father. She had white her and she smiled at the camera. After a few seconds she looked up to her father then back. Her father was Grindelwald. He stood tall with a slightly cold look, but when he looked down at his daughter he let a small smile take place on his face. That was the moment where Emily finally knew who was the man in her dream. It was Grindelwald, her grandfather. Next she looked at the other picture. In that one there stood her father and aunt still very young and their parents. It was a happy family picture. It was moving as well, but there wasn't so much happening. After that she put the two pictures into her room and put it in her secret dox, which was full of thing and pictures of her parents. She walked back down to the common room. Then she took the wooden box into her lap and opened it. It contained a bracelet that was made out of a sliver string with white and gold pearls. (A/N:  here's a pic of it so you can imagine it.

Next she opened the present from Molly. It was a weasly sweater with an E on it. The base was purple while the letter was yellow. Emily got up with the sweater in her hand and ran up to her room. After carefully putting the sweater away she went back down to her presents. When she sat down beside the tree she opened the peresents from Hanna and Bridget, who went home for christmas so they couldn't be there. Hanna brought her a quill made out of a Hipogriff feather. She hadn't had one yet so she was super happy for it. From Bridget she got a notebook that had flowers on it's cover. Her old notebook where she drew magical creatures was already full so she was really greatful for this present as well. Next came the twins' presents. From George she got some of her favorite sweets and new gloves for Quidditch, because her old ones ripped on the last match. Fred gifted her a necklace, a not so ordinary necklace. It had a little phoenix figure as charm and as the little note said it would glow if she was in danger. She immediately put it around her neck. She was very greatful for it. From Angelina she got a poster full of animals, from Katie a book about Quidditch and from Alice she got a box of homemade biscuits. She ate one right away. There was only 2 present left. One of them was from Ginny and one from Hermione. Ginny gave her some chocolatefrogs, her favorite sweets and from Hermione she got the newest edition of the book Fantastic Beasts and where to find them with the signature of Newt Scamander. When she saw it she almost fainted in joy.
