(You were the Slytherin Boy's friend. If you are a Slytherin, you guys met by talking together on the first year at the Slytherin table. But if you're not, you somehow caught their eyes and now you're a part of their group. Having 7 guy friends can be a bit fun and..Troubling at the same time.)
It was 25th of December, Christmas.
The Great Hall looked beautiful. Christmas was marked by a feast. Eggnog was often served. The Christmas feast featured roast turkey, potatoes, chipolatas, peas, gravy, cranberry sauce, and "flaming Christmas puddings".
Students at Hogwarts went on a few weeks' holidays for the Christmas season, though some students chose to stay at Hogwarts.
So ofcourse, you and the boys chose to stay at Hogwarts, despite some of the boys usually returning home, they risked it for you. Their best friend..And ofcourse, those rich jerks showered you with gifts..
Currently, you are in the Great Hall, as the school was having a feast, students chatting loudly, while you had been dragged to sit at the Slytherin table with the boys.
