Chapter 9  *****Edited*****

            The Christmas Holiday couldn't have come sooner. Hermione and I were the only ones that went home while Ron and Harry had stayed at Hogwarts and we had them try and get into the restricted section of the library to find out who Nicholas Flamel was because we had yet to find out who he was. During the train ride back to London Hermione and I talked about what we had learned so far and what we would learn when we got back and other things that didn't really matter and when we reached the platform we went our separate ways.

            The moment I saw Uncle Remus I ran up to him and tackled him in a tight hug. It's only been a few months but I sure have missed him. "I've missed you, Uncle Remy." I whispered in his ear as he picked me up and hugged me tightly.

            "I missed you too." He put me back down and smiled down at me before he frowned. "Have you grown?"

            "Half an inch." I smiled proudly but then frown. "But I'm still the shortest in the entire school."

            Uncle laughed and ruffled my hair. "Don't worry you get that from your mum." I smiled hearing that and he picked up my luggage. "She too was always the smallest." We started walking and he led me towards a fireplace? "Now how about we go home and tomorrow we go shopping?" I nodded my head but looked at the fireplace questionably. "Oh we're going home using Floo Powder. Don't worry you'll travel with me so you won't get lost. Just hold onto me and keep your eyes and mouth closed." Well, there wasn't any fire in the fireplace so I guess it was okay.

            Uncle grabbed some dust stuff from a pot beside the fireplace and together we stepped into the fireplace and I held onto his arms and he threw the dust down and said his house and we went flying through the air or at least that's what it felt like. It took a few minutes before I felt my feet land on solid ground again and Uncle told me to open my eyes again and when I did my eyes landed on a familiar sight of his living room.

            It was late evening so Uncle quickly made me some supper and sent me off to bed. That night I slept peacefully and soundly with Peanut and Jelly on my pillow and Toast on her perch in my bedroom. My bedroom at Uncle's house was simple and plane but I loved it because of that. The bed was small with a plane duvet and there was just a simple bedside table and chest of drawers and a desk. On the bedside table, there was already a picture of my mum and dad with me as a baby and one of me and Uncle and I fell asleep looking at the moving picture of my mum and dad smiling down at me as a baby.

            The following morning I woke up early and decided that I would make breakfast for Uncle Remus instead of him making it for me. I quickly made my way to the kitchen I decided to make his favorite; well part of his favorite and got the pancake mix along with chocolate chips knowing that both myself and Uncle had a weakness for chocolate. By the time that I had finished making a plate full of chocolate chip pancakes Uncle had woken up and reached the kitchen and together we enjoyed our breakfast.

            "So Gemini dear what would you like to do today?" Uncle asked me after we finished eating breakfast and he had the dishes washing by magic.

            "Could we go to Diagon Allie so I can do some Christmas shopping?" I asked and he smiled and nodded his head with a hesitant smile on his face. "I'll get dressed real quick then." I quickly kissed his cheek and hurried to my room and dressed in simple muggle clothes of jeans, a light blue shirt with a black jumper. I slipped on a pair of black ankle boots for the muggy London weather and threw my Gryffindor scarf around my neck with a pair of black gloves and I was ready and ran back to the kitchen where I found Uncle waiting also ready to go. "Okay, Uncle I'm all ready to go. I figure we'll just grab some of my money from Gringotts and do some shopping. I'd like to look around my vault but I can do that another day when there's more time. I haven't done any shopping yet so that will be my focus."
