Athena wakes up the next morning and looks outside the window, snow was settling on the floor and lights everywhere.
"Thena, oh good your awake" Marlene walks in with a smile on her face "merry christmas my love" she kisses Athena's forehead "come on let's go downstairs" Athena walks down the staircase to reveal jo, Beth and Meg all siting on the sofas they all look up at her with bright smiles and let out "merry Christmas" while hugging Athena. Jo sits next to Athena with a gift in her hand "I thought you'd like it" she hands it to her sister, she opens it to reveal a broomstick serving kit
"Jo" Athena smiles at jo and gives her a massive hug "thank you thank you thank you" she squeezes her tight "where's mother?" Athena asks
Beth stands up and fixes an ornament on the tree "she went out to collect fathers letter" she says with a bright smile.
After about 30 minutes of exchanging gifts with everyone mother walks through the door covered in snow head to toe "girls sit down, I have got the letter" she waves a letter she sits down on a chair as jo sits at the back Meg and Marlene at her side and Athena and Beth at the bottom mother looks back at jo "are you sure you're comfortable"
Athena snorts "she just sits at the back so we can't see her cry" jo hits Athena's arm as she lets out a little "ow" she holds onto her arm.
mother starts reading
To my girls,
Give my daughters a big hug and a kiss, I think of them by day and prey for them by night. It seems a awfully long time until I can see them again but I am more then grateful to have children like them. I know they will be kind and strong and do there duties faithfully. So when I come back to them I may be fonder and prouder then ever forever my little women.
After breakfast there was knock on the door, Athena rushes to the door
She opens the door "Remus?" She takes a step back as Sirius regulus and James pop out "MERRY CHRISTMAS" they all yell
"What are you doing here" Athena jump into Remus's arms
Remus squeezes the girl tightly "well we all were sitting eating breakfast and the boys were telling me how brilliant your family are so we decided to come spend Christmas with you" Remus walks into the house "if that's okay with you"
Athena gesture them all inside "yes yes ofcorse" they all walk. Athena yells out to her sisters "we have some visitors to spend Christmas with us" the boys follow her into the living room
Jo laughs "Welcome boys" jo stands up and hugs regulus "regulus my boy, good to see you" regulus smiles at jo she lets go of regulus and hugs Sirius "my god you've got tall" she lets go and looks at the rest of the boys and shakes their hands. Athena turns to see someone else knocking on the door "whose that now?" Athena rushes to the door again
James laughs "oh that might be my parents" the door opens and a beautiful women with black curly hair and a handsome looking man, the women wraps her arms around Athena tightly "oh you must be Athena, the boys have told me so much about you" she lets go and looks at Athena "I'm Euphemia potter" she smiles "my god your prettier then I ever imagined" she walks into the living room to the boys and the man steps in "Fleamont potter" he shakes Athena's hand "thank you for letting us in your home" he hangs up his coat and walks into the living room
mother comes walking out of the kitchen with her apron still on with a beaming smile on her face "hello I'm marmee" mother shakes Euphemia's and Fleamont's hand "merry Christmas" she sits them all down and Marlene whispers to her sister
"Who knew James's mum was a milf" she giggles and looks at James. He walks over to both sisters shaking his head "Marlene I swear you flirt with my mum"Sirius and Remus start laughing behind him
Marlene shrugs her shoulders "no promises".
Everyone sits down at the table, Athena sits with jo and Remus on one side, James and his parents on they other, along with Sirius meg and Beth at they end and mother Marlene regulus and nana at they other end.
Euphemia looks to Athena "so Athena I've heard your very good at quidditch dear?" She smiles
"Oh I like to think that I am" Athena looks at James to see James smiling at her
James scoffs "She's brilliant mum" he reassures her
Fleamont gives Athena a big smile "brilliant, you can play with me and the boys, we're down a seeker" he points to the boys "unless you don't want to" he smiles
Athena nods "Oh yeah ofcorse I would, any excuse to get my broom out of the cupboard I would love too, jo plays as well she could play with us couldn't you?" Athena turns to her
She shakes her head smiling "yeah of course, I'm not as good as I used to be but it sounds fun" Jo smiles
Fleamont smiles at both girls "amazing we can play one day this week".
After everyone finishes their dinner they all sit in the living room Beth sits at the piano and jo Meg and Marlene come in giggling holding something behind there back, Athena raises her eyebrow
Mother sits next to Athena "ok we thought about how good you've been this year Thena and we wanted to get you something big so" she looks up at the girls "girl" she nods her head as they reveal something long and wrapped
"No you didn't" Athena goes bright red and looks up at them in amaze "you got me a new broom" the girls hand her the present, Athena rips it open and sees a a cleansweep six staring back at her "you got me a cleansweep six?" She looks back at the broom.
After a while of playing games and telling stories about one another Athena sits down and Euphemia sits next to her
She smiles "you know I've never seen those boys smile as much as they do around you Athena"
Athena stares back at her "I don't think you've seen them at Hogwarts there smiling all the time" she looks over to see James laying down flat on the floor and Remus and Sirius trying to stack a pack of oreos on his head
She shakes her head "yeah but I've never seen them accept any other person in their group, I mean there all so close with each over seems they trust you" she grabs the girls hand "it was so lovely meeting you my dear" she stands up and gives everyone a hug goodbye "okay we better get going, boys come on"
The boys all stand up and hug everyone goodbye. Remus walks over to Athena and hugs her goodbye "I'll see you soon okay, write me please do I'm going to be stuck with them all Christmas holiday" he points to Sirius and James giggling and pointing "god help me" he whispers
Athena grabs his arm "You always know where I am, if they get too bad" she smiles and say goodnight to the rest of the boys.
Athena starts shutting the door as James turns back to her "thank you for today" he smiles "my mum can be a bit mental" he laughs
She shakes her head "no she's a delight really"
James laughs "Merry Christmas James" he starts walking away.
Athena shuts the door and walks back into the living room, mother still putting everything away "what a lovely bunch of boys".
