James Pov
James potter for as long as he could remember LOVED christmas. He loved everything about it, the food, the presents, family coming over, the parties his parents held. If there was one thing the potters knew how to do it was christmas.
And he was so excited this year to be spending it with y/n and Remus. He was fascinated by the expression on the twins face as they entered, they decorated house. They where in owe, they had never seen Christmas like this before.

The first few days was James showing the twins around where he lived. Rackheath, Norwich. He lives in a large Mansion, surrounded by country side. which was the complete opposite to Newport ,Wales, where Remus and y/n came from. It was nice for them to spend there holiday not surrounded by factories and Houses for once.

James showed them the local village, the shops and parks and anyway really they wanted to go.
And in the evening they would all sit and play bored games. It was when it started to approach there second week home, 3 days before Christmas that James saw the Change in Remus.

It sucked that the full moon was the day after Christmas. Obviously, his parents knew. Dumbledore had set in place a whole bunch of spells, which will protect the Potters, when the time came.

Remus was to go into the loft, Mrs Potter said (even after the protest from Remus) that she will sit outside the room all night which James knew y/n was thankful for.

It was Saturday, Christmas was on Monday, James, y/n and remus where sat by the fire that evening playing exploding Snaps. James had one 4 rounds, Y/n 3 rounds, Remus none.

"Mate" James said making Remus jolt from where he had been quietly falling asleep in the break that y/n had gone to make tea.
"go bed, we can carry on tomorrow"

Remus sitting more upright replied
"nah, i won't sleep anyway" 

"but"

"leave it will y'a"
"ah tidy" he said as he reach out for y/ns tea.

James like how both of them revert back to there welsh ways. Like sirius and his french.

Sirius pov:

Now Christmas for Sirius was very different to the potters. It was Sunday morning Christmas Eve and this week had already been living hell. It started off with and fight about his hair, the moment they stepped through the door. Then all week he had been shut in his room. "Grounded" if that can even be the term at this point, it was closer to imprisonment.

He was lying in his bed, stomach clenching from hunger, trying to think of anything else but tomorrow. When his whole family would be having dinner together he hated these dinner they always made him feel sick.

Suddenly he heard a small knock at his door. He igroned it probably Kretcher trying to tell him "mistress Black" want to talk to you.
There it came again followed this time but a hushed
"Sirius"

"Reg?"

"yeah, can i come in"

Was he dreaming his brother, Regulus Black number one hater of Sirius wanted to see his brother.

"umm..." he hesitated what if this was...No he's your brother "yeah come in"
He sat up in bed staring at the door which was slowly opening. He watched as a Black haired pale boy darted in, shutting the door quietly behind him.

"Regulus" he said in a tone of acknowledgement "what... what do you want"

"I..." Regulus stuttered like he almost didn't know himself. "I wanted to check on you"
"You've been in here for a while, and we'll you haven't really been making your normal fuss"
