 In the past few weeks I had become especially close to Draco and Mattheo, as well as Selena. In fact, I would even go as far to say we had formed a group.

" Pssssst ", Draco whispered

" What? ", I said sleepily, professor. Quirell had been droning on for hours, with constant stuttering.

" Nothing, I'm just bored "

After what seemed like forever classes had ended and we all rushed to dinner.

" So where are you guys staying for winter break? "

" Home, Selena answered. "

" I'm staying at Draco's ", Mattheo replied.

I sighed, it looked like I'd be alone at Hogwarts I thought, recalling the howler.

" You should come to ", Draco said suddenly.

I looked up abruptly " what? "

" Yeah you should! ", Mattheo said, backing up the idea.

" No, I don't want to impose ", I decided after a while.

" Come on Ari, it'll be fun...besides Draco's mom is the nicest woman I've ever met ", Mattheo continued.

After a moment of thought I caved in " fine ", I grumbled. " But don't call me Ari! "

" Sure Ari ", " they replied hapilly.

I rolled my eyes but was secretly ecstatic I wouldn't be spending Christmas alone.

It was the day of departure and I was a scary type of excited. It was actually my first Christmas outside of the Weasley house.

Mattheo invited himself into my dorm and plopped himself on the bed.

" You ready? "

" Yup. ", I said, popping the p.

" Great ", he replied pleased " let's go "

As we walked into the great hall with our luggage, I saw my brother, Harry and Hermione huddled on a table. When Ron saw me, his face quickly turned to disgust.

" Where do you think you're going? ", he sneered, " last time I checked, you're homeless ", he added, taunting me.

Mattheo lunged forward, his face seething but I stopped him.

" It's not worth it ", I said, and he immediately stopped.

Ignoring what had just happened we walked comfortably to the train.

The train ride was bliss, we had bought out the snack cart and were amusing ourselves with games of truth or dare, would you rather and kiss, mary kill. Which wouldn't have been that fun if it weren't for the veritaserum Draco somehow had or the absurdly humiliating punishments for not completing a dare.

By the end of it Draco had purple hair, Selena was covered with Pie on her face, I had paint splattered all over me and Mattheo was doubling over in laughter.

" See you after two weeks Selenaaaaaa, I promise I'll write to you ", I yelled as I exited our compartment.

" See youuuuuu ", she yelled back.

As we went out of the train and onto the platform, I was surprised to see that instead of being greeted by Draco's parents we were greeted by his...chauffeur......the boy was eleven and he had a chauffeur.

" You have a chauffeur! ", I exclaimed.

" He also has three maids and a bodyguard ", Mattheo pointed out.

" My my, I've landed myself a rich friend ", I joked.

Soon we arrived at the manor...

Malfoy manor was nothing short of extravagant. The place had five floors with dozens of rooms. The decor was extremely medieval and elegant and I would even go as far to say that Draco's room was bigger than my whole house!

Draco's mother was the nicest person I had ever met ( extremely ironic really ). She engulfed me with a large hug the second I walked in. " Your room is on the third floor ", she informed me. She then continued to explain where the dining room and bathrooms were and took the time to explain to me how I should never go into the dungeons.

You heard me, they have a frickin dungeon!

I sat myself on the bed of the room I was given... these two weeks would sure be something.


 Author's note: I'm so sorry for how long it's taking me to post! I started school after my winter break last week and there's definitely a difference in free time. The next chapter will be especially long since it's going to cover two whole weeks of winter break. I'll most likely post it some time between Thursday and Saturday.
