Willow wakes up to snow in her face "Agghh!" she screams, the others copying. "Wakey Wakey Sleepy Heads." Kol grins. "DAD!" Willow shouts. Kol smiles and speeds out the room, Willow speeding after him "What's going on?" Hermione asks. "This is normal for Christmas morning, give her it a minute and Wills will be back." Draco responds. After a minute they hear a yell, followed by Willow's laughter "Who do you think she got to help her this year?" Blaise asks, sitting up and brushing the snow out his hair. Willow skips back in with a smile "Uncle Finn." she tells them. "What did you do this year?" Theo asks. "I got Uncle Finn to chuck ice down his back while is distracted him." Willow responds, grabbing her clothes as her friends laugh. After they get changed, the friends run downstairs and into the living room "Happy Christmas!" they smile, crashing by the fireplace in a mess of arms and legs. The adults and Hope laugh "Happy Christmas." they respond. Everyone, including Hermione and Marcus, start opening their stockings; finding chocolates, sweets and odd trinkets such as candles, jewellery and other odd ends they might find useful. "Okay. Who's ready for breakfast?" Freya smiles, handing everyone a bag to put their presents in. "Oooh, have we got pastries from the bakery?" Willow asks. "As per usual." Klaus responds. Everyone puts their presents in their bags before heading to the dining room "Woah." Marcus says, seeing the mound of pastries. "Better get used to it." Willow smiles, pulling him into the chair next to hers.
After breakfast, everyone heads outside where Willow throws a snowball at the back of Marcel's head "Oh, that's how we're starting this year?" Marcel asks. "Yep." Willow smiles, running behind=d the twins. "Why you taking refuge behind us?" Fred asks. "Because you're both taller than me." Willow responds, quickly running behind a tree as snowballs head their way. Willow laughs, seeing the snowballs hit the twins in their faces "oh, you think it's funny?" George asks, throwing a snowball at her. Willow squeals and runs over to the boys and Hermione, the five of them quickly making a bunker "We're joining you guys, we're doing children verses adults." Hope says, joining them with the twins and Marcus. "Okay, boys you help Draco, Blaise and Theo with the snowballs. Hope, you help me and Hermione with the walls." Willow smiles. Hope uses her magic to help stabilise the walls of the fort and duplicate the amount of snowballs they have "Wait, if you can do this..." Fred trails off. "Why do you think we always make sure to be teamed with Willow and Hope?" Draco smirks. "We can duplicate the snowballs as many times as we like." Hope tells them. "We're definitely winning." George nods. "Just don't tell Mum or Aunt Freya." Willow says. "Yeah, we're 'not allowed to use magic' because it's cheating." Hope nods. "Deal." the twins and Marcus nod.

After the snowball fight, which they won, the younger members run back inside and go to the dining room for lunch. Everyone smiles as they watch the friends joke around as they eat, all of them messing around and throwing balled up tissues at each other. Willow laughs as they all tell each other the cheesy Christmas cracker jokes "That was terrible!" she tells Theo. "Hey don't blame me, blame the cracker." Theo tells her. "Okay, now we've eaten we can open our presents." Keelin smiles, leading them into the living room. Jumping up, Willow grabs Hermione's hand and links arms with her as they follow.

Willow smiles as she finishes opening her presents "Right you lot, go get your presents upstairs." Davina smiles. "Okay mum." Willow nods, grabbing her bag of presents. Her friends copy and follow her upstairs to her room "This has been the best Christmas I've ever had so far." Marcus smiles. "Same here." Everyone agrees, making them all laugh. "What's next on the agenda?" the twins ask. "Muggle movies, then we have a late dinner, followed by hot chocolate, more movies and games." Blaise tells them. "I'm glad my parents let me stay for Christmas." Hermione smiles. "I'm glad they did to." Willow smiles, hugging her best friend. "Come on, let's go choose the movies." Hope says, poking her head into the room. "Coming." Willow smiles, dragging Marcus with her. "What are movies?" Marcus asks. "They're like wizard photos but they tell a story with sound." Hermione explains. "You're gonna love it." Blaise tells him.
