No thanks

Mother and Father, I'm writing here to let you know that I won't be owling your Christmas gifts off in time for Christmas Day.

I'll send them off later, at some point when it's a bit more convenient for me. Possibly this could be months from now. Sorry about that, I'd give more explanation but I have exams to think about right now. Let's just say that something's come up, yeah?

Your son,
Draco

You shall most certainly have a Christmas, Harry, just not the one we any of us intended.

I don't much recommend sending Him a Howler, no.

As for our promises to Draco, dear, that is for us to address with him. I do appreciate your impulse to support him, of course. We have always been pleased that you two boys are such very good friends.

But to be quite honest, I thought you would be glad that he is staying with you. Weren't you unhappy when we went away last summer and you two could not spend time together? I thought you might prefer having him there at Hogwarts with you than think of him home with us, playing host to all your classmates without you there as well.

Well I don't think I like EITHER very much. Cause now it's my fault he doesn't get Christmas!!
