3rd Person POV

The Christmas season had soon wrapped Hogwarts up into the christmas cheer with only a few weeks left until the students would be able to go home to visit their families. Cetty was one of those people that would start singing Christmas songs really early and whenever she wanted to. It helped get the teachers into the Christmas spirit but mainly annoyed Snape with the help of his daughter. Hagrid had carried a giant fir tree into the great hall and Flitwick being soooo tall and all thought he would be adequate to decorate it. NOT!! Due to his height he spent ages levitating each and every ornament onto the tree which took a long while. The Slytherin common room was decorated too with banners everywhere obviously in the colour green to keep house spirit up. Cetty and Draco had come a bit closer because of the constant dreams but Draco still wouldn't admit they were friends due to her blood status.

The morning winter fog enveloped the castle on this particular day. It was Saturday and a Hogsmeade weekend much to Cetty's delight. She wanted to do some Christmas shopping with her friends before they all got separated during the holidays. Cetty, Larissa, Draco, Sapphire,and Pansy all decided to go together to Hogsmeade. That morning Cetty woke up to a giant bucket of ice cold water splashed and tipped upon her head sitting up with her wand in hand she aimed at the one who dared disturb her slumber. Too her surprise there stood Larissa with a muggle camera and a smug smirk trying her hardest to contain her laughs which worked for about 2 1/2 seconds. Not long!! Sighing Cetty left her safe sanctuary (her bed) and walked to claim the shower. Turning it to the highest temperature she stripped of her clothes and allowed the warm water to warm her up from that cold wake up call. After finishing she dried her hair with a simple spell and curled it to look all wavy and crinkled. Then she decided to put on her clothes which consisted of thick black tights, a dark black button down skirt, a green sweater and green and navy flannel scarf, finishing the outfit of with her favourite boots she left the bathroom to apply her makeup. A dash of foundation and concealer a coating of mascara, eyeliner and dark plum lipstick she looked like a movie star ready for her outing to Hogsmeade. "Wow Cetty you look hot, hot, hot how did you do that" exclaimed Sapphire." It's called makeup Saph and a wand" replied Cetty with a giggle. The pair then linked arms and to the common room where they were greeted with Draco equalling a cute kiss between the couple and some wolf whistles from Larissa which Cetty couldn't help but laugh at. Lis looked gorgeous too with a short black skater skirt and tights and a black lace top it definitely matched her straight hair which is usually nearly as bushy as Grangers. The small group then made there way to the Grand hall for a spot of the traditional English breakfast. Which they had all become quite accustomed to.

After breakfast the group went to the courtyard to hand in their permission slips to Hogsmeade. The group then began their trek to the little quaint village together talking about typical teenage stuff. Christmas!!! (Well thats what me and my friends do. Mature right!) "Oooh i wanna go and get sweets nooow" shouted Larissa. Super mature but they all agreed anyway. Upon entering the shop the group was hit with an assortment of different smells and sounds and sights. The sweets looked that good that you could taste the sweets just by smelling the air. Some sweets made sounds like special whistling sweets. There were normal sweets and less normal sweets. For example a large corner of the shop was taken up by muggle sweets; bonbons, lemon drizzles, Red Vines, even Haribos and then there was the wizarding sweets; blood lollipops, chocolate frogs, bertie botts every flavour beans, acid pops and many more. The inner child possessed the group as they all ran towards their favourite sweets stuffing them into their spare hand and running to the till. 2 minutes flew by and everyone had already bought their sweets. Giggling they all left the shop, "Father" half the group looked up as Draco shouted towards the man from Cetty's dreams. Lucius Malfoy...

"Draco i was unaware that it was a Hogsmeade weekend and i gather that these are you friends and your girlfriend Sapphire Snape is it?" "Yes sir my dad has spoke very highly of you and your family" Sapphire complimented. Cetty looked at the man from her dreams and realised the similarities between father and son. They both possessed the bleach blonde hair and grey/ blue eyes. They both held the Malfoy signature smirk much like herself her thoughts added. He seemed to behold a lot of power and was one people would not want to be on the bad side of which was probably why Sapphire seemed very grown up around him. "Well your father and myself are quite close friends considering he's Draco's godfather and all and are the rest of you friends then. Im already acquainted with you Pansy but may i ask for your two names?" Lucius asked pulling Cetty out of her continuous thoughts." Larissa Fawley pureblood sir" "Cettyana Lucissa Kingsley muggle-born Sir" the groups breaths hitched in their throats all aware of Lucius Malfoy's opinion on muggleborns. "You may call me Mr Malfoy" he said giving a sideways glance at his sons reaction. He said farewell towards the group and strolled towards the darker side of town. "Well that could've gone worse right!" Draco said with a nervous chuckle. Suddenly all the tension left the group and they laughed at the encounter with Draco's father, and before they knew it Cetty had completely forgotten about the meeting with the famous Mr Malfoy...
