It's been a week since her waking up. She has been catching up on her work and to her surprise, she was good at it.
The Gryffindors were all sitting in the common room when James burst in carrying a letter.
"Guess what guys!!!!" James said. His voice was laced with excitement.
"Mia told you not to come home and we can finally have a Hogwarts Christmas together ever since padfoot's mom dragged him home in the second year," Peter said without noticing how sad Sirius became and how Ellie was fuming.
"Peter dear if you don't know what to say you should better keep shut." she gave him a sweet smile before glaring at him.
Sensing a fight to start Delia spoke up, "James tell us what Mrs. Potter wrote."
" It's happening."
"James honey be more specific. What's happening?" millie said, rolling her eyes.
"THE GREAT POTTER CHRISTMAS BALL," James said dramatically.
"What's that?" Ellie asked, looking around and seeing everyone was excited.
"It's a ball, duh." Peter said.
"You know Pettigrew I tried keeping our past behind and giving you a chance but I think you need a daily dose of my threats to keep your fucking mouth shut." Ellie hollered.
"Wormtail shut up, will you? She is new in the group and she doesn't know about the potter tradition.'' Sirius said, cutting Peter off.
"El it's a ball held by potters every 2 years you see. It's a tradition that has been going on since potter can't himself remember.'' Lily explained.
"So you all are coming, mum said to bring dates. It's on the 25th of December and then we all are going hiking like we said last year."
"Of Course man!" Sirius cheered.
"Um, I might not make it this year jay. I already had my fair chance of warnings from my mother. If she again finds out I'm not here in Hogwarts for Christmas she'll throw me off the family tree." mils said, choking on her tears.
"Mils we are all here for you. You have to get out of that household. We have seen your scars and burns. I have seen you cry at night. Love, you are the sister I always wanted. I can't leave you there. Run away and you can stay at marls' or at Delia's. I don't think Mia would mind if you are her daughter like I'm her son." Sirius got up and sat in front of Millie who had started crying.
"Go home, get the prettiest gown for the ball, send us a patronus we taught you and we'll be there to pick you up for once and all," James said, putting a hand on her shoulder.
