>Third Person<

It was finally Christmas Eve! Where again, every students who stayed got up early, and unusually someone downstairs yelled "IT'S CHRISTMAS EVERYONE! WAKE UP EVERYONE!" yelled by a fellow Gryffindor. Everybody got up and quickly hurried downstairs , bumping to each other. "Wait! Didn't Mcgonnagal said we're suppose to eat first?" a Gryffindor first year asked, they all exchanged looks and hurried down to the Great Hall. They all changed into their Christmas sweaters and saw the Great Hall decorated for the occasion. "Ahhhhh" all of them said together, sitting in their table, Mcgonnagal stood upon her chair and waited for them to turn quiet. "Well! Merry Christmas, students, staff and all! I can see that you are all exited for your gifts?  Yes, and a lot of you had stayed here at Hogwarts, thank you. But first, before that, I  would like to announce that after 500 years, there is this occasion...which is Family Day!" she said, all of them had smiles on their faces, except Sarah, who had no reaction. "Family Day, is a day, where in 500 years, your families will join you on Febuary 20th. I will send them letters tomorrow. So...Merry Christmas everyone!" she continued and sat back down. After the delicous Christmas feast, everybody went to their common rooms to check out their presents. 

They all gasped and screamed with joy opening theirs. Sarah was just continuing reading her book when she heared someone call her name. She went down curious when she saw almost half of the room holding presents. "MERRY CHRISTMAS!" all of them said altogether, "huh? whats all this?" Sarah said forming a big smile on her face. "For you, of course! You've been such a good friend, why not?" Albus told her handing a purple wrapped present. "But... I don't have a gift for you guys!" Sarah said looking as though she'll burst into tears of joy. "Don't have a gift? Sarah, you are one! After helping us all these months, for studying, saving us and even being there when no one is. You are the best gift no one else can ask for!" Mia said hugging her, and later they all made a warm group hug. "Open it!" Rose said, she unwrapped the wrapper quickly and saw a cozy-turqoiuse sweater wi" th a large letter S in it. "Aw, thank you Rose!" she said wearing the sweater over her shirt. "Don't thank me! It's my grandma who knit that, and let me tell you, they're pretty warm!" Rose said showing her yellow sweater  with a big letter R. After opening so many gifts that revealed books, quills, and cards, she had none left. She was really thankful that she had best friends in the world, "wanna check my broom out?" Oscar Longbottom, a second-year Gryffindor asked. Albus and Sarah went out with him and even secretly took the broomsticks from Madame Hooch's class, played  bit of Monkey in the Middle. After a bit of rounds, they were exhausted and headed to the Great Hall who served a big bouffet anytime with a big dessert table. Albus and Oscar went ahead back to the field while Sarah snatched 2 things from her room.

She went to Hagrid's hut and knocked a tune on the door. "Well, if it isn' Sarah! Merry Christmas! Come in, come in!" Hagrid said opening the door. "It's okay, Hagrid. I just want to give you this" she said cheerfully and gave a gift. "Aw...you shouldn' 'ave"  Hagrid said with tears in his eyes, he wiped them away and took the gift. He opened it and saw a beautiful dragon figure in his hand, since it was from the wizarding world, the dragon moves and breathes a tiny fire. "Thank you Sarah!" Hagrid told her hugging with  tears in his eyes, again.  "I better go Hagrid, gotta deliver some gifts. By the way...I named the figure Norbert after your old dragon!" Sarah said running away from the hut. "Cheeky little witch" Hagrid whispered to himself and walked back in his hut admiring the figure.

Sarah went down to the dungeons humming happily, then knocked at the private quarters of Professor Snape. "Come in..." he said and opened the portrait door. "I only want to give something, sir!" Sarah said, avoiding to peek in since it was called private. "Please, come in" Snape said, Sarah sighed quietly and walked in. 'Woah, he sure adores Salazar Slytherin' Sarah said to herself, "I read that" he told her."You can read minds?" she asked, he nodded but didn't look intrested. "Anyways, Merry Christmas Sarah" he said finally looking at her, "Merry Christmas too, sir"  she replied smiling. "So. What have you come here for?" he asked. "I just want to give you a gift" she said finding it from her book bag. "A gift for me?" he asked, forming a curl in his lip. "Oh... and I thought you might like it. Oh well, better be going" Sarah said playfully pretending to leave. "I didn't say I didn't like it!" he said, she turned around and found the gift. "I thought you did",  "where is it?" he asked looking around. "Check your hand, sir" she told him, he opened it and saw a black colored medium-sized box in his hand. He had a suprised look in his face and opened it. He took on what was inside and it had a tiny locket, a picture of him and his daughter. "I...er...found you dropped it once and er, I had a spare locket so yeah..." she explained sheepishly, instead of smacking her or pulling her hair out, he hugged her. She was a bit suprised, since he doesn't hug students usually but she hugged back. Snape let go and wiped a tear that rolled down his face. "Thank you so much, Sarah. Thank you" he told her standing up. "And here is a little gift that I'd like to give" he said searching something from his closet. He handed her the gift, she gasped as she saw a  beautiful letter S and G-cleff necklace. "Woah..." she said admiring, "wait, is it suppose to be Severus or Sarah?" she asked laughing. "Either" he replied laughing too, "well, I'll have to go, sir. Merry Christmas!" she said leaving the room. 

"She really is a special witch..." he told himself, but remembered the time he looked for... never mind.
