Title: Christmas Holidays (II) Rating: PG Word Count: 271 Warnings: An attacking owl is mentioned. Summary: Lily's alone with the Marauders for Christmas, and writes to tell her friend about it.
Dear Mary,
So, I did it. Aren't you proud of me? I spent one whole day with the Marauders, and I didn't kill myself (I know, I know, I'm surprised, too); it actually wasn't as terrible as I pictured it would be. I mean, there were moments where I wanted to smack them several times over the head, demand to know what was wrong with them, and then storm out of the room, but I stayed strong and kept my promise to Alice (she had her Owl attack me until I said yes; what a friend, huh?)
They want me to hang out with them again tonight, but I told them I wasn't sure (no, I don't have anything better to do, I just don't know how much time I can handle with them; it's like babysitting all over again!), of course, I'll probably end up hanging out with them, anyway, but I'm so used to saying no, that giving them a straight-out ' yes' is going to take some getting used to.
I wish you were here. You didn't even answer my last Owl! I suppose it probably hasn't gotten to you, yet, but I'm going to keep Owling you everyday, anyway. You're like my personal Diary, except you give me advice with my problems. It's a great exchange - at least for me, anyway!
Well, the children are calling for me. I have to go. Hurry up and send an answer, will you? It's been two days and I already miss you like crazy. xoxo - Lily

Poor Lily even on holiday she has many things - kids who are supposed to be grown up boys - to worry about

Lol! I love that she compares hanging out with them to babysitting!
