Ashley took a large step back, hands on her hips as she proudly observed her work. The seven foot Christmas tree was a sight to behold with its bright ornaments that the Potter Heiress had manually placed herself. She’d assigned herself the job of setting it up while Sirius and Remus made the rest of the house look festive. Speaking of the two elder Marauders, they were currently right across the room, seemingly arguing about something. They weren’t actually angry with each other. Ashley could see the smiles threatening to split their lips. Amused, she shook her head and plucked her mug of hot cocoa from where it was floating beside her head. She took a small sip and continued watching the quarreling couple. She was so distracted that she didn’t notice the Floo activate behind her. She jumped about three feet in the air when a hand suddenly landed on her shoulder.
