"I need you to be my fake date to the yule ball..please don't say no.."
"Was I just a ruse for you, throwing me away when he came to ask you?"
"You might never love me again, but just know. I would rather die by Crucio than live without you.."
This...
Once the holidays had started, the brunette missed Hermione very much. They would write to eachother but it wasn't the same. So, to pass her time she had taken to watching Ron and the Raven having fun, which took her mind off Flamel.
The dormitory was almost empty which was a chance for them to plan an elaborate scheme to get Malfoy expelled. However, all the brunette could think was about asking the Raven out. She would quickly shift her attention to Mr. Meowington who was now dressed up in clothes knitted by the brunette.
She would make the cat, do model walks and dance. He would magic himself out of those clothes. Strangely, pompous Mr. Meowington always behaved in front of Harry. The brunette and her cat were watching the Raven play wizarding chess with the redhead. Wizarding chess was one activity which made her head spin.
... It was Christmas morning, and the brunette had just arrived at the Great hall wearing her Christmas dress.

She was greeted with smiles from all the Hogwarts staff because of the gifts she got them. She had given all of them chocolate cats like the chocolate frogs but as she liked cats, she asked her brother to help her transfigure them into cats and she made new covers and made each of the chocolate info cards about the people they were being given to.
She stifled a laugh remembering what happened when she gave Proffesor Snape his card.
FLASHBACK She walked in his classroom and kept it in on the table. "Mr. Weasley, if it's another prank, you will be given detention 3 weeks this time. Oh it's you, Ms. Scamander. What brings you here?" She smiled shyly and lifted the present for him to see. "Merry Christmas, Proffesor." He quietly opened it and read the words of admiration written for him. "Ms. Scamander, I appreciate your present, but I would advise you to not talk about our little conversation. Ah and do not expect any favouritism from me after this." The brunette nodded vigorously and quickly strode away. BACK TO PRESENT .
....
She went back to the common room after finishing dinner. It was the time to open presents. The brunette decided to watch Harry's reaction to his presents first. Which was quite fun to watch, as he didn't expect any presents in the first place.
He got a handmade flute from Hagrid, a 50 pence coin from his cruel aunt & uncle, a very heartwarming gift from Mrs. Weasley- an emerald green jumper and a large box of homemade fudge, he had gotten a large box of chocolate frogs from Hermione.
The brunette tapped his shoulder and gave him his present. "I know, when you return back to horrible aunt and uncle. You would like to have memories. This is a memoirall. You just have to say the person's name-dead or alive, a smiling picture will appear for you to look at."
Harry hugged her tightly and gave her a smile which made it worth for her to spend all her Christmas pocket money for it. Harry had received another present- an invisible coat.
Before she could examine it, her own pile of presents were inviting her as well. Her parents had gifted her a photo album of her childhood, which if anyone said the age, would show the memories of that age, Her brother had gifted her a muggle vinyl player, her maternal grandparents had given her a book on Wizarding Laws and their loopholes, her paternal grandparents had given her a clock which would show the time as well as if the future was going to be good or not, her great aunt Queenie had given her a vial of amortentia with a note that said," tell anyone to sniff it, and see who they like."
Her great uncle Jacob gave her the vinyl record album of Frank Sinatra, Hermione had given her a set of beautiful earrings, Ron had gotten her muggle gummy bears and sour jellies,"I don't know what's it to you about muggle stuff, something tells me you and my dad will get on bloody nice."
Harry had gifted her a muggle Polaroid camera which was appreciated through ruffling of his hair, the twins and Lee got her two seperate muggle candy and chips hampers, Cedric had given her a clover shaped ring along with a note -"if one of us presses the clover, the other person's ring will glow. If you ever want to talk to me, just use it." Blaise had given her a matching emerald green bracelet with the message - Let's be naughty and save Santa the trip. Padma and Parvati got her a traditional Indian pair of earrings(jhumka) and dress with a note -"Wear it in front of your crush and let the magic begin." Lavender got her a locket with the picture of the four dorm mates. Adrian got her a green scarf with a snake pattern, Justin and Ernie got her books on transfiguration.
The brunette slipped on the locket, ring and bracelet and started admiring her hand. She put on the earrings from the Patil twins and started munching on the chips while passing it to Harry and Ron. Ron being more interested in food, took note of the chips while Harry noticed her hands.
"Who got you those?" Said Harry pointing to her hand. A munching brunette told him,"Bwaise gomme the bwacelet, Cedic the ling. I'm sowwy about mybehavioul, I juthlobe muggle thips."
Harry grinned at her words and suddenly noticed how cute she was looking and looked away.
