I woke up on my bed and took out my suitcase, but closed it. Instead, I wrote on a piece of paper asking my father if I could stay over Christmas. I looked over at the other beds. Only Cho was staying and everyone else must've already packed. I headed out and I paced to the Owlery. Once I reached the Owlery, I attached it to one of the school owls, watching it fly away. I smiled and headed to the hospital wing to see Madam Pomfrey.

I opened the door and spotted Madam Pomfery busy with a 3rd year Griffindoor boy with a broken leg. I smiled as he looked over at me. I walked up to him and smiled.
"Hey" I spoke.
"Hey"
"What happened?"
"Just a nasty bite" Pomfrey interrupted. "But he should be fine today."
I nodded. "So your staying over Christmas?"
"No, you?"
"I'm pretty sure, my sister's going home tho"
He nodded and Madam Pomfrey walked over with a cup, which I drank. And placed on the table.
"Cool" he answered.
"So your doing anything interesting over your holidays?"
"Well I'm going to the Quidditch World Cup with my friends"
"That's cool, I've never been a real sports person. Who do you go for?"
"I don't really care, the Irish or the Bulgarian"
I nodded.
"Ron, your free to go" Madam Pomfrey answered. Ron nodded and stood up and unwrapped his bandage, placing his shoe on. He glared up at me.
"Do you want to walk to the Dining Hall with me?" Ron spoke. I nodded and we walked down the corridor.
"So, what's your name again?" I asked.
"Ron Weasley"
"Oh, your Ginny's brother."
"Yes, one if her's"
"How much brothers do you have?"
"7 and 1 sister"
"Oh, that'll be annoying"
"Yep, especially my elder brothers that love playing pranks"
"Well I only have Luna and my father, my mother died when I was nine. I was a lucky baby as u was born with a 3% chance of living. My parents had to treat me the hard way. I'd rather not talk about it. And I'm soo glad I'm not in Slytherin, I had a bad feeling about that house"
"Yes, there's no with his or wizard that went bad that wasn't in Slytherin."
"Yeah, my grandmother was in Slytherin. She was friends with you-know-who."
"What, that's horrible. Was she a death eater?"
"Yep. But she's gone now, and I'm never going to be like her, even is she's given me no choice."
"Oh."
"Let's not worry about that though,.... Wait did you say Weasleys? Doesn't your father work in the Ministry?"
"Yes"
"That's awesome, my father edits the Quibbler"
"Is that a magazine or something?"
"Yes it's a magazine"
He glanced at me.
"So, what's your name again?"
"Casey, Casey Lovegood"
"Nice to meet you" he spoke and walked over to the Griffindoor table. I nodded and headed over and sat next to Luna. She glanced at me and gave me a hug, letting go after I practically died of her squeezing me.
"Nice to see you too"
She looked at me.
"I'm soo sorry for avoiding you. I know it's not your fault. I feel soo horrible for being soo rude."
"I forgive you, besides. Sister promise we will never hate each other, nor hurt each other. We'll be by each other's side until the end."
She nodded and glanced at a letter from father.
"So, your staying over Christmas?"
I nodded. "I've only partly told you the horrible story. I just need some time to let it go" I spoke, looking at her. "Besides, I'll see you in no time"
She nodded and handed me the letter from father. I read it.

Dear Casey,
Of course you can stay over Christmas. I'll see you in a couple of weeks.
Stay safe,
Love you,
Xenophilius Lovegood.

I glanced at the letter and folded it up. I looked at Luna.
"Luna" I spoke, she turned over.
"Can you not tell father anything yet. I just want to sort this out and I promise I'll tell you the full truth when I come home in a couple of weeks"
She nodded. I spotted Professor Flitwick coming towards us with a clipboard.
"Are you girls staying or going home over Christmas?"
"Luna's going home and I'm staying" I spoke. He ticked off my name and walked over to the others. Luna hugged me.
"See you in a couple of weeks"
"Merry Christmas"
"You too" she spoke and wheeled her suitcase out of the school, waving to me as I waved back.

After she disappeared out of sight, I looked around. Not many students stayed over Christmas this year. I searched around the room to see if I could find someone I knew. My eyes laid on Cho as she talked with some other girls from Hufflepuff and an older boy, which I recognised as Cedric Diggory as I heard his name many times around the school. I walked over and Cho spotted me.
"Hello, Casey. Are you staying over the holidays?"
"Yes. Luna went home tho"
She nodded and looked at Professor Flitwick decorating the hall with Christmas ornaments. Cho giggled and I smiled, walking away and down the corridor. I heard someone behind me and I turned around. Draco stood there.
"Hello, Draco. Going home for the holidays, are you?"
He nodded. "I see you aren't. I saw your sister leave earlier"
"Yea, just a whole pile of stuff lands in me in such short time, so I'm staying to sort through it"
"That sounds boring. I'm going to the Quidditch World Cup"
"Really?" I spoke. "I heard the Weasley's and Ron's friends are going too"
"You mean Potter and the Mudblood."
I glared at him.
"Blood doesn't matter, it doesn't change anything......... What! Did you say Potter? Harry Potter?"
He nodded and I waved goodbye to him as he walked away. I breathed and walked back into the school."

What do you think? I was thinking of her knowing lots of guys, but dw because she isn't going to fall in love with Draco like in all my other books. I'm thinking of a sad ending. Please vote and comment! And love to hear feedback and also characters I should add!
