It's the day of the Christmas Eve party. Things happened. Lily became more secluded, the plan went no where, Albus and Scorpius gotten closer, Rose and Scorpius became...more distant, James and Alice became closer and she's starting to tolerate him more. It's been an eventful couple of days. Ginny was making the kids help with finishing touches on the house when Scorpius came through the floo. Albus rushes to him and hugged him. "Hey Scorp! What are you doing here?"

"Me and Rose broke up."

His eyes widen, "I'm sorry Scorp!"

"It's ok. It was more of a mutual thing."

"Really? I thought you liked her?"

"I did but..?"

"But?" He just shakes his head. "Ok. I'll leave it alone. Umm the girls are gonna be here soon. James said he has a plan-" Albus said before getting cut off by a whoosh noise.

"My favorite cousins I'm here!!!" Lucy. Of course that how she enters. Albus rolls his eyes. Lucy and Alice walk over.

"Hey Al. Scorp." Alice says smiling. "What did James want?"

"I don't know. James said he has a plan."

"Great! Let's go!" Lucy said and bounded up the stairs. She seems happy Albus thought. Weird...

We all walked upstairs to James' room. "James!!" Lucy yells as she walks in. He jumps up and almost falls off. Lucy laughs.

"Really?! Couldn't have knocked? And what's with you Luce? You seem happy. Too happy." James yelled as every sat down. He narrowed his eyes at Lucy.

"I think she has a boyfriend or something. She was owling someone and wouldn't tell me who~" Alice teased.

Lucy blushed, "I don't have a boyfriend!" Not exactly anyway...

"Mmhmm. Whatever you say.." Alice said.

"Umm hello?! I called you guys here for a reason!!" James yelled over us.

"Fine James. What?"

"I have a plan!"

"Obviously!" Alice yells.

"Ok chill. So what if instead of keeping this on the dl we confront her." James said and every looked at him like he was crazy.

"Why?? That seems I don't know...crazy!!" Scorpius yelled.

"No it's not.." Alice spoke up.

"If we confront her then she'll be left with a choice-" James starts.

"Her family or Delphi!-" Alice continues.

"Which means if we tell her about Delphi-"

"She'll side with us and get help!!-"

"And stop training with Delphi!" James finishes high fiveing Alice. Their new friendship is weird... Albus thought to himself.

"That could work!" Lucy exclaims before Albus cuts her off.

"One problem. After trying to get more information she stopped coming around us and won't stay to talk with any of us." I point out.

"Not if we ask someone to help us." Scorpius says drawing stars on the cuffs of his jeans. He does that when he's nervous and sometimes when he's bored.

"We tell someone? Like who?" Albus asks.

"No parents!" Lucy cuts in.

"Like...Teddy or Rose or the twins." James says. Scorpius flinched at Rose's name. No one noticed except Albus. Even though it was a fine break up and they agreed to be friends; Scorp felt like he was leading her on or something being that he liked someone else while they were dating. Even though he wouldn't admit it, to anyone or even himself. Albus reaches over and pat his hand and took the market away so he couldn't draw on his jeans anymore. "It's ok. Rose is fine. Your fine. Lily will be and it will be ok." Albus whispered to Scorpius and he just nodded.

"How? We can't just say hey family guess what? We've been hiding the fact that Lily is working with a murderer! Can we?" Lucy says sarcastically with an eye roll.

"No we can't Luce. But we have to do it. Tonight. It will be at the party and if something goes wrong we have back up. Everyone agree?" James asked and everyone nodded. He put his hand in the middle. Then Alice on top of his. Then Lucy. Then Albus. And finally Scorpius. "This ends tonight. We got this!"
