Her cat could help decorating, somehow, and at least she had her sister there with her. Seeing as she’d seen Carsyn had gotten there before her, as well as Cole and several others she knew.

He made her happy. So they would make the best of this Hogwarts holiday. Naya continued to nibble on her cookie as she pondered Cole’s question. “I don’t know how they learned, but they are definitely good bakers. These cookies are really good.” Looking up, she noticed her other dormie (Carsyn) glancing their way. After giving a wave and a smile to her Prefect, Naya turned her attention back to her group of three.

Now, it was time to decorate. Naya looked at Islay and said, “Ready?”. She held on to Cole’s hand, as they headed toward one of the Christmas trees. She knew she would have to let go eventually, but she was going to delay that moment as long as possible. Taking Cole’s suggestion, Naya went for the candles. Knowing this was a two handed job, she reluctantly let go of Cole’s hand. Then addressing her two decorating partners, she said, “Let’s do this.”


Could she keep her hand in his forever? Maybe not, but Cole was super happy that Naya didn’t withdraw her hand from his right away. She kept it there even as they headed over to the large tree that they had picked out to decorate. Eating up the last of his cookie he commented. "We could ask an elf sometime if it wouldn’t be considered rude of us." He wasn’t sure how house elves ethics worked. Maybe there was things like baking skills that you didn’t ask or talk about?

As they stopped in front of the tree Naya let go of Cole’s hand. He hoped just a little bit that she reluctantly let go and not with willingness because his hand was sweaty. With as much cheer as he could muster Cole agreed with a wide smile. "Yes, let’s get started! If you two start with setting up the lights on the lower branches then i can get started on the lights near the top." Seeing Carys looking alone and a little lost Cole waved and called over "Hi Carys! Want to come over and help us?" They were already three so the more the merrier. Fetching a chain of lights Cole raised his head to take in the tree. Now how best to get the lights up?
