"Jamie?" Y/N whispered to herself, "What in Merlin's name am I going to get James?" She stared at the small paper crumpled up in her hand. She had chosen James for the Secret Santa that she and her friends planned on doing before going home for Christmas. Her thoughts were interrupted by a knock at the door. "Come in." She put the paper in her pocket as Remus opened the door.
"Hey." He sat down next to her, "Do you wanna go to Hogsmeade with me. I got Peter and I need help figuring out what to get him." Y/N smiled.
"You aren't supposed to tell me who you got," she laughed, "it's Secret Santa!" She playfully pushed him before standing up. "Get your coat, let's go."
Y/N took her heavy winter coat and Gryffindor scarf and headed downstairs to the common room where he already was. "Remus?"
"How did you even get into my room?" She remembered the staircase that turned into a slide whenever a boy tried to get into the girls dorm. "Isn't there a-"
"A wizard never reveals his secrets." He winked and stuck his arm out for her to take as they made their way outside.
In the courtyard, Sirius and James were creating a pile of enchanted snowballs to throw at Snivellus who was writing in a textbook. Odd. Y/N thought. I'm not sure he should be writing in school property. She shook it off and turned to Remus. "I'll tell you who I pulled for Secret Santa if you buy me some butterbeer."
"Deal." He chuckled. "Oi Pads! Don't throw them until I get back, I want to see this" To which Sirius returned with a thumbs up and a wave to Y/N.
Y/N gave a small wave back paired with a pink tinge on her cheeks. The two left the courtyard and started on the pathway to Hogsmeade. "Y/N." She turned to see a slightly worried face. "Your face is pink, maybe you should use your scarf." He said pointing to the scarf draped on her shoulders.
"It's not from- You know what Rem, you're right." She wrapped her scarf around her neck. "Thanks." He gave her a brief questioning look before paying attention to the path again. As they approached the end of the road, Y/N turned to Remus. "So are you gonna buy me the butterbeer now or after we shop?"
The two entered The Three Broomsticks and were seated in a booth near a window. "So who is it?"
"Hm?" Y/N was so focused on the snow outside, she didn't hear the question.
"Oh." She opened her mouth to tell him but the waitress got there before she could.
"What would you two like to start out with?" She asked, a lot of emphasis on 'you two'.
"A regular butterbeer for me and extra foam on hers." He said without skipping a beat. "Oh also can we have a plate of Pumpkin Pasties?"
"Sure thing!" The waitress scribbled everything down, turned on her heel and walked off to the kitchen.
"So. Who is it?" He asked again.
"It's Jamie. And I have no clue what to get him." Y/N buried her face in her hands to her face. The waitress set both butterbeers on the table. "Thank you." Y/N said without looking up. "He has almost everything."
"True. Except he just ran out of broom polish." Remus pointed out.
"I'm not just getting him broom polish. That's stupid." She rolled her eyes. Then she remembered the day before. "Oh! Yesterday James ripped his robe on the banister! I can get him a new one!" The waitress came back to the table with the Pumpkin Pasties. "I'll have to figure out his size but other than that-" Y/N looked up to see the waitress staring at her weirdly. "Oh. Oh no no no no. Not that- Oh god." Remus stifled a laugh as Y/N buried her face again while Remus asked for a to go box and the check.
"Y/N are you ready to leave?" He asked, still giggling. "We should get to the robe shop before it gets dark." He pulled her up and put the desserts in the box. The pair left The Three Broomsticks then purchased a new robe and a pair of gloves for Peter.
On the walk back to the castle Y/N asked, "Do you know who got me?"
"Yeah I do. But I won't tell you." He smiled.
She frowned, "Please tell me." Y/N tugged on his sleeve. Remus shook his head.
"I'm not going to- Pads! Hey!" Sirius approached them.
"I was coming to get you guys because you wanted to see Snivellus get destroyed. It's getting dark and we think he's going inside soon so why don't you come watch." Sirius took Y/N's arm and pulled her along. "Y/N we need the arm of a beater, you can throw the first one." Y/N, still being pulled by Sirius, felt that pink blush spread across her cheeks and nose again.
"Y/N! Hey!" James waves her over and hands her a snowball. "Aim it right towards Snivellus."
"Gotcha." She pulled her arm back and threw as hard as she could, straight to Severus, hitting him on the shoulder. He looked up to see the four of them laughing. He brushed the snow off and packed up his books. "Guys, hit him before he can leave!" The boys each grab a few snowballs and launch them towards Severus, covering him with snow.
"Moony, Prongs" Sirius started, "we gotta go. Ravenclaw Head Girl at 3:00." He grabbed Y/N's hand and bolted for the door. They booked it down the corridors and up the stairs and into the common room to find Peter on the couch.
With each of them out of breath Peter felt the need to ask, "Did you guys all... you know?"
"God Pete! No!" James said in between breaths. He sat down and the others followed suit. "We ambushed Snivellus."
"Oh really? How'd it go?"
Sirius piped up, "Perfectly! Y/N started off with a real good hit to the shoulder, I could tell it hurt. We got him drenched in snow before the Ravenclaw Head Girl came outside." He clapped Y/N on the back and held her shoulders. "She's really really good at throwing, maybe better than Prongs." To which James hit him over the head with a magazine on the side table.
"Not to completely derail the conversation and change the subject but also to absolutely do just that, has everyone gotten their presents for Secret Santa?" Remus's lungs caught up with him. "Because I know Peter is going home tomorrow night and it would be great if we could open the presents together." Everyone nodded, James, Peter, and Sirius ran upstairs to grab their gifts while Remus and Y/N labeled their shopping bags. As everyone gathered together in front of the fire, they placed the gifts into the middle.
"Sorry that you couldn't stay here for Christmas Pete." James said comfortingly.
"Oh it's alright, I miss my parents. It'll be nice to see them." Peter clapped his hands together, "But enough about that, let's open some presents! James you can go first."
James went through the five gifts searching for his name and came across Y/N's bag. He pulled out a long dark robe, a replacement for the one he tore. "Oh my god! It's just like the one I messed up! Oh thank you thank you to whoever pulled my name." Y/N smiled. "Sirius, you should go next."
Sirius picked up the box in front of him with his name scribbled in black ink. "Looks like Peter's handwriting." He mumbled. He opened the carefully wrapped box and pulled out a dog collar and dog tags with "Mischief Managed" on then. Holding up the collar he exclaimed, "Woah this is nice. It'll come in handy some day soon." Sirius smirked while winking at Y/N.
"Pads!" Moony clapped a hand over his own mouth to keep from laughing. "I'll go next." Remus took the gift bag with his name on it and reached in. Out of it came a gorgeous quill and ink set along with a leather notebook. "Thank you so so much James, I love it!"
"Process of elimination, mate. Peter, open yours." Peter took the bag and pulled out a pair of dark green gloves.
"I just lost my other pair, I love these! Thank you so much!" He looked around not knowing who gave him the gloves.
"Y/N," Sirius held out her little box. "this one is yours." She took it from him, brushing her hand against his. Carefully unwrapping the paper, she looked up to see her friends and their unanimous expectant expression. "Oh get on with it! We haven't got all day!" Sirius urged her to fully open it.
She tore off the rest of the paper to reveal a little white box that which she slowly opened. Inside was a beautiful little heart shaped necklace. "Oh my god. Oh Merlin, whoever got this for me didn't have to. It's gorgeous, I adore it." Sirius stood up and stepped behind Y/N.
"Here. I'll put it on you." She handed him the necklace. Sirius brushed her hair off her neck and onto her left shoulder for her to hold. He put the necklace over her head and clipped it together. Glancing at the others, who were obviously smiling and giggling with one another, Sirius gave them a dirty look.
"Thank you Sirius. I appreciate it."
"Yeah sure." He looked down. "Well anyway, isn't it time for bed?" Sirius said while making his way upstairs to his dorm. "Merry Christmas to all, and to all... eh I forgot the words." He announced before disappearing up the steps.
"Well. That was weird." Y/N looked to Remus, James and Peter had already followed Sirius. "Is he okay?"
"Are you sure because that was so unlike him." Y/N sat back down on the couch, pulling Remus with her. "You're my best friend."
"Well Merlin Y/N, I sure would hope so." Remus laughed, putting his arm around her.
"Can I tell you something?"
"I like Sirius. Like like Sirius." Y/N muttered.
Remus cocked his head. "Oh. Well I already knew that."
Remus smiled, "Merlin Y/N, it's so obvious. I know he hasn't caught on yet but it is oh so terribly obvious."
Y/N groaned, "Should I tell him? You know that little necklace thing that happened a minute ago was really... you know."
"Oh yeah." She ran her fingers through her hair. "God Moony, I want to tell him so badly."
Remus stood, "Then do it! What's stopping you?" He grabbed his present and headed to the stairs. "I think you'd have a pretty good chance." And with that he disappeared like Sirius.
Y/N found herself sitting on the couch for another hour fiddling with the necklace and wondering how she should go about telling Sirius about her feelings. "Hey." A familiar voice came from behind her. She turned to see the one guy she was just thinking about. Well, the guy she's always thinking about. "Sorry I left so abruptly."
"No it's fine." She said, still fiddling with her necklace. He jumped over the back of the couch, right next to her.
"I was your Secret Santa." Sirius said quietly.
Y/N looked up and met his gaze. "You?"
"Oh." She looked down at her lap. "Thank you. I really like it. The necklace I mean."
"Yeah of course, it's pretty much a law to get something nice for the girl you like." He immediately slapped his mouth. "I didn't mean to say that-"
"But you already did, didn't you?" Now it was Sirius who had a red tinge to his cheeks. "Your face is red. Did you know that?" Y/N teased.
Sirius hid his face in his hands, "Merlin..." She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him in for a tight hug. He brought his arms from his head to her waist and hugged her back. They sat there for a few seconds before she pulled away and stood.
"Goodnight Sirius." She leaned down to give him a light kiss on the cheek. "Oh and I like you too." Y/N waved and went upstairs to bed.
