Christmas time?

Harry is standing in the church, cleverly disguised by the bracelet he wore, and is looking at the Christmas tree that takes up a large amount of space. After a while he zones out and realizes that he has never celebrated Christmas before. So he goes and asks some of the people that are there what it was about.

After he thinks he knows the gist of Christmas, Harry Goes outside to look at he tree more closely. After a while he zones out. But all of a sudden tears start falling as he curses his parents who threw him out and all the other families that have thrown him over the years. "Why?" He asks in a choked voice. "Why did nobody ever try an put up with me?" The tears fall faster now.

"h-harry! there you are," she gasped as she saw tears. "are you a-alright?" she stuffed her hands in her pockets and retrieved a soft cloth and attemped to wipe the warm tears off his face.

"I would say 'Yeah I'ts just cold' or something. but that would be a lie. I'm Not. And it might be a while before i am." He takes the cloth from her and wipes his tears. "Thanks for asking. And the cloth."

"oh it's n-no problem," she smiles as she turned towards the christmas tree. "oh it's almost christmas, this is the f-first time i have c-celebrated this, since," she hesitated,

elizabeth turned towards harry. "s-so you said you w-were cold?" before he could reply she pulled her scarf off and gingerly set it around his neck. "there, a-all better."

"Hi, guys!" With huge bags of Christmass presents Rosie had brought for the most Night hour student she'd allready met, she came near the two chatting. "How are you? I've just brought everyone some presents! I love Christmass. It's the only time when everyone takes time a come and sit with each other and ... Oh, I'm Rosie, by the way." She putted the bag she was holding with her left hand on the ground to greet Elisabeth.

Harry manages to choke out a greeting and hands elizabeth her scarf back. Truth is he isnt cold. As usual he is wearing a tank top and jeans. And he is perfectly fine like that. "Hey... Rosie"

"h-hello, Nice to meet you. im E-elizabeth" elizabeth greeteed. "w-wow thats alot of presents you got there."

"Haha, I know. Like I've said before, I really love ... Harry ... were you crying?" Only that look in his eyes betraid him. Rosie looked worried over the other werewolf. "Why? It's Christmass ... Oh, I see the problem. I feel so sorry for you, Harry." She hanged her head thinking what Harry told her earlyer.

elizabeth becomes confused. "w-what happened?"

"It's allright. It's not your fault." He suddenly looks up with a look of pure joy which contrast his tear streaked face. "Wait! I can my first Christmas this year! With you guys!"

though still quiet confuseed her face lights up. "y-yeah, same here! M-maybe we could have a christmas party, and I-invite every one thats a n-night hour."

"Oh, my God! You're right!" Getting all enthousiast about the idea Rosie was going to be the one telling Harry and Elisabeth all about Christmass, she smiled happyly. "Look ... in those bags are presents - and yes, I've got one for you two guys too - but Christmass actually isn't about the present. It's about being together and have fun. Then you have like ... this dude, called Santa Claus. Have you guys ever heard of him?"

Elizabeth becomes puzzled. "sort of, the kids at my village always talk of him. what does he do?"

"Yeah i heard of him. I was asking around earlier." He smiles at them.

"Well, he's actually just a tale parents tell to their kids. To keep a long story short, he's a old gentle man who brings presents to every kid in the whole world. But, there is allso a relegic this about Christmass. According to the Bible, Jesus was born that day." Rosie smiled happy, she loved it how to tell them stuff.

"cool!!" He looks excited.

"And the rest, you need to find out yourself. Most of Christmass you learn on the day itself ... " Rosie looked at the two of them. "So, what have we learned today, class?!"

"That Rosie is a know-it-all?" He grins.

"Perfect! That's an A+ for you, sir!" Rosie smiled. "So, why were you at chuch? To ask a priest about Christmass?"

"Just to wander around. But then i got distracted by the tree. And started crying. And here we are now." He smiles and wipes his face.

"Oh, yes. That's a Christmass tree. They are supposed to be very needed in the holidays. Under the trees you should put your presents. But I prefer giving them myself. I love those smiles on those faces."

"Haha I bet." He is smiling. "Do you need help carrying those?"

"N - no! Don't work yourself over because of mine ... Yes, actually I do." Rosie blushed.

"Hand them here. I'll Take them back to the school." He holds out his arms for the presents.
