Chapter 5: Christmas

I felt packages being dropped on my bed as I opened my eyes seeing all the gifts I had got from my family and friends.

"woah." I hear Hermione say looking at my gifts with wide eyes then back at her slightly smaller pile,"And I thought i had a lot."

"who are these all from?" I question myself looking at the packages.

"It has the name right here!" She points to a package with a name on it. Alice Delacour.

"oh." I say realizing who this is all from. "its from my friend." 

"what?" She asks confused.

"the one I had been living with..." I open the package and found earings. The 2nd one had books... Who would send me books... I thought about it. Aurther Delacour (didn't mention it but I had been living in France with them.) My friend Alice Delacour's father.

I open the last gift from Apolline Delacour. Alice's mother. I open it and see a sack of galleons.

"Galleons?" Hermione questions.

"yeah..." I trail off noticing a small envelope.I pick it up opening it as I didn't find a name of who its from.

I open it and I see a gold chain with a green gem on it, it looked absolutely beautiful. I began reading the letter

    Dear Bella,

  You can not tell Harry I have gifted you this.I just always liked you best not as much as my dudders, but I do tolerate you and wanted to welcome you back into the family. I left you A small necklace and just wanted to say sorry for to everything I did and I shouldn't have done that and I would do anything to have my best friend back.

                       -from Petunia Dursley

"who's it from?" Hermione asks examining the necklace.

"my aunt....?" I say questionably.

"as in your aunt petunia?!" She says confused.

"mhm " I say handing her the letter.

She gasps "'don't tell Harry' why would she gift you something after all this time?!" I open my mouth to speak but Hermione interrupts "what if its got a jinx on it!"

"Hermione she's a muggle I doubt - " she didn't listen to me though.

"keep it in here." She says placing the necklace carefully inside "just in case."

"I - " I argue then give up "okay."

We head down stairs receiving gifts from everyone else and having a nice family- like dinner.

We watch fireworks and had great holidays.

HOGWARTS -

Once we return to Hogwarts to no surprise the one person I hate, the one I want to forget becomes my study partner.

"hey!" He says looking up from his book as I walk over to study with him.

"hi." I say simply.

"which subject first?" He asks happily.

 "Don't know." I say plainly again.

"okay..." He looks surprised at my attitude "lets start with potions."

"okay."

"how do you make draught of living death?" He asks reading from a book.

I wonder the question while he looks confused.

"what?" I ask noticing him examining me curiously.

"why are you acting like this?" He asks curiously "we're at the end of may already just get over it."

I stare at as my jaw dropped to the floor "don't ever tell someone to get over something!"

"okay whatever" he says looking back at his book "but I already said I was sorry..." He mumbles.

"no you didn't ! " I yell clearly furious at his lying.

"yes I did." He said picking up is book to close it "I gave you a necklace and - shit!" He exlaims.

"what!?" I Ask annoyed.

"that necklace." He said grabbing the one I had been wearing for weeks even though Hermione advised me not to. "I gifted you this."

"this was from my aunt." I say snatching it back.

"why would your aunt call you her best friend?" He asks calmly.

"Because she felt like it... why would you sign it as my aunt then?" I ask confused.

"I thought you would think to examine the necklace first"

Why the fuck would I do that?! I dont have time... Okay I do, but who would think to examine a necklace from a friend!.... Hermione would.

"what?" I say as he holds out his hand waiting for the necklace. I take it of placing it in his hand as he examine the gem.

The gem opened up revealing a small slip of paper reading ' I'm really truly sorry - your best friend M.R.'

"oh.." I say feeling stupid as he closes the gem "I'm really sorry for blaming you for my parents death..."

"its fine" he sighs picking up his books "lets just pretend we never had that argument deal?" 

He asks holding out his hand. "deal ." I say shaking hands, and for the night That's exactly what we did.

We let all our worries all our arguments fade into thin air as if they just decinigrated.
