Christmas Day*7th year

[Sabastian]

*Walks down the stairs to the common room, a little ruffed looking but smiling*  Merry Christmas.  *Goes to Ellz and kisses her cheek then hands her a tiny box.*  Open it.  *Smiles*

*Inside the box is a ring like none other.  The band is carved from a fire stone,found only in the fire plane, it has diffrent symboles on it and when Ellz touches the ring it warms her through and through. The ring begins to shimmer and glow as the light hits it, under the ring is a note.  it reads:

    If ever you want to come visit my home, be sure to wear this ring, with it on, no creature would dare trouble you down there.  I had the Keeper make it for you.  He likes you.

                    Sabastian

*Smiles as he watches her, hoping he had found the right gift.*

[~ Ella]

*Slides it carefully onto her finger and watches it shimmer. She smiles widely and hugs him so tight he is almost out of breath. She then let's go and kisses him on the lips.*

Send my thanks to The Keeper, it's absolutely beautiful, I love it, I love you!

*She hugs him again. Then breaks away and rushes upstairs looking for his present. She fumbles through her trunk then pulls out a silk black cloth, she takes it downstairs and hands him the soft silk. Wraped securely inside the black silk is a small silver necklace, the pendant on the end is a fiery white colour and inside it is a small girl made of flames is dancing. She magically twirls this way and that, making him feel warmer just by looking at it. Ella smiles hopefully.*

Merry Christmas...I hope you like it, where ever you are, if you're ever thinking of me or wondering where I am, just hold it close to your heart and there i'll be...

*She looks into his eyes, hoping she hit the spot.*

[Kiara Johnson]

*Still staring onto the forest, has not taken her eyes off of it since Ellz gave it to her.  She finally speaks*  It's perfect Ellz, beautiful, absolutaly perfect.....

[Kiara Johnson]

Thanks! *brings out his presents* Kiara, I found this when we were clearing out Sirius's House. I guess he had one too. *Hands her an invisibility Cloak* I know you can probably turn yourself invisible or something like that, but hey. IT'll come in handy.

Hey thanks Harry!  This means more to me than you know and..*Gets a curious look*  I don't know that I have ever even tried to become invisable...*Shrugs*  Guess I don't have to now *Gives her brother a huge hug and a kiss on the cheek.*  Here, take this one Harry, I hope you like it.  *Hands him a pakage containing a wand servecing kit and a coupon for free chocoalte frogs at the sweet shop. then, smiles at him again.*  I do have another present for you, later, it's a suprise. *Whispers the last into his ear so no one else can hear.*

[_Lavender_]

*comes down from dorms in a black knee length skirt and a white top, an armload of gifts in her hands**hands them all something, then waits anxiously for them to open them, hoping that had done well*

[Zack]

*reaches deep into his pocket and pulls out a black box and hands it to Isis. she opens it to find a pink-tinted sterling silver chain, a small glass ball, a pink light shining from inside of it, hooking onto the chain by a red bird holding the stone**smiles nervously* merry Christmas

[~ Ella]

*Smiles a smile at Kiara saying, 'your welcome' and then turns to Lav and smiles.*

Hey Lav!
Merry Christmas!

*Runs upstairs and walks back down with a blue box. She hands it to Lav. Inside it has a elegantly made anklet with a wolf paw hanging off it. Ella smiles and hugs Lav, thanking her also for the present. She walks back to Sabastian.*

[.:isis:.]

(sorry, guys, i'm a bit behind :-[.... so i'll just post a bit in the past)

*gets Ellz' present and smiles* thank you Ellz! it's beautiful! *gives her a hug and wishes her merry Christmas*

*wishes Kiara, Harry, Sabastian, and Lav each a bright merry Christmas when they walk in, and then announces that their gifts still need to be wrapped so she'll give them to them a bit later after breakfast*

*opens Zack's gife and smiles brightly* thank you! it's beautiful! *kisses his cheek and then smiles*

[~ Ella]

*Smiles at Isis, then turns back to Sabastian, feeling as though he doesn't like the gift...*

[Zack]

*smiles, happy she liked it* your welcome

[Sabastian]

*Smiling, puts the necklace around his neck and lais the pendant against his skin, under his shirt and puts a hand over it.*  Thanks you Ellz, I love it.  *Kisses her*

[Sabastian]

*Turns to Kiara and smiles a bit oddly*  I have somthing for you too... *Hands her a small box, inside is a bacelet*  It's a friendship bracelet, I, I think we should start over.  *Looks like je wants to run away and hide but stands and watches her darfully, hoping she'll put it on and not throw it at him*

[~ Ella]

*Smiles at him lovingly, then widens her eyes and smile in shock as he says this to Kiara. Stands there torn between hope and sadness, wondering how Kiara will react and hoping for the best.*

[Kiara Johnson]

*Holds the bracelet in her hand, turning it and looking at it for a few minutes.  Looks up at Sabastian, an actual tear slides down her cheek as she puts the bracelet on her wrist.*  Does this mean i am forgiven?

[~ Ella]

*Bites her bottom lip, almost beside herself in amazement. She looks back to Sabastian, her eyes wide in hope, she holds her breath waiting for an answer.*
