Chapter 53: PRESENTS!!!

Mackenzie

I woke up to two teenage boys jumping on my bed and yelling "WAKE UP ITS CHRISTMAS!" At six in the morning.

Bianca and Aunt Aurora left really early this morning to go visit Aunt Aurora's family in the U.S .

"Ugh five more minutes." I say covering my head with my pillow.

"Ok 1,2,3,4,5. TIMES UP!" Sirius says pulling my warm blankets off.

"Fine I'm up." I grumble.

"Aw Rose needs a hug." Charlie says wrapping me in his warm arms.

"Ah your warm." I say barring my head in his chest.

"I know but you have to get ready. Remember we are going to Sirius' flat and opening presents with Lily and James and then you and I are going to my house for the rest of the day." He says.

I groan and go get changed into jeans and a blue sweater. I put all the presents in a bag with an expandable charm. I then walked downstairs Into the kitchen were Sirius and Charlie were waiting. everyone was still asleep so I put my mums present ,a emerald and silver necklace, on the kitchen table. Then we all used the floo network and went to Sirius' flat. When we got their the place was quite and the lights were out. Sirius and I looked at each other mischievously. 1,2,3 I counted in my fingers.

Then we both yelled "WAKE UP LOVEBIRDS ITS CHRISTMAS!!"

Few minutes later the lights turned on and Lily and James appeared with a serious case of bed head.

"You had to wake us up this early?" James groaned.

"Nice to see you too. And Yes if I had to wake up this early so do you." I say flopping  on the couch.

"Let's open presents." Sirius said jumping up and down like a little kid.

"Yeah." James and Charlie chorused also jumping up and down. Lily gives me a look that says what did we get are selves  into.

"Ok little boys. We can open presents after I get my coffee." Lily says walking into the kitchen.

After we were done opening gifts Lily made breakfast and we ate it by the tv watching a movie called a Christmas story. Half way through I asked Lily if I could use her, James', and Sirius' owls to send gifts to Lupin and Iris, Bella, Cinder, and Ben.  I gave Lily's owl Remus and Iris presents. I got Iris a sliver paw print necklace and a picture of the two of us. I got Remus a book called the bad beginning  from the series of unfortunate events. Then I gave Sirius' owl Bella's gift a book called the city of bones. Next I gave James' owl Cinder's present the second book In the lunar chronicles Scarlet. I got an owl from the Lupins first.
