I lived just outside a small village in the country side, a huge lake just at my back door.
I absolutely loved being home. We lived in a muggle village but everyone is so lovely. Everyone knows everyone so we're all on first name bases around the village.
Summer was the absolute best time to be home. Nothing is more fresh than a swim in the lake in the mornings, winter, not so much, I can't exactly use a spell to turn the lake into a hot tub now can I? The garden and fields surrounding my house were almost always cut, so the smell of freshly cut grass was always around. My Mams different types of flowers were always out in full bloom around the house, brightening up the place. It really was the perfect country home.
Winter made the area look beautiful too, the grass was always frosty and crunchy when you walked on it, the lake sometimes freezes. One year it got so bad we were able to ice skate on it, it was really fun. Icicles always hung from the trees in the winter making them look so pretty.
We had an out door fire pit, it's so relaxing chilling out beside it.We try our best not to use magic much so no one can speculate anything, mostly just indoors or when we're certain no one is watching.

It's been 9 days since Christmas break started, I couldn't wait to get back to Hogwarts, but I'll definitely miss it here. I couldn't help but wonder how Draco was, I hope he's alright. He left in such a hurry at the party. I just hope over the last 2 weeks whatever he has going on with his Father got sorted.
"Why don't you ask Raelyn to come over for the last few days?", My Mam asked, pouring out a cup of tea for herself and me. "It's a bit short notice.. don't you think?", I looked up from writing my letter to Raelyn.
We've been sending letters back and forth since break started. Her and Blaise met up a few times over Christmas but she said she'll tell me details in person.
"That's not for me to decide, ask her if ya want to! We love having her here!" She placed a cup of tea infront of me. "Thanks Ma.. I'll write it in her letter and ask."
"So.. I need to ask", she sipped on her tea.
"Go on.."
"I know you're that age now when you're wanting to.. yeno.. experiment with your body and stuff.."
She started.I almost spat out my tea, "Mam please stop!"
"I just want you to be safe! I don't want you getting hurt from boys or yourself getting pregnant!"
"Mam.. I'm being safe, I'm taking a pill everyday, and.. there's no boyS", I blushed, emphasising on the 'S' in boys.
"So there's a boy?" She smirked.
"Maybe", I shrugged, leaning back into the kitchen chair.
"Come on you have to tell me now! What's his name? Is he nice?"
