Snowflakes drift lazily through the frosty air, blanketing Hogwarts in a hushed white glow. The castle's towers gleam under a pale winter sun, and the distant chatter of students fades as they depart for the holidays. In the quiet, the cobblestones of Hogsmeade crunch underfoot, the scent of cinnamon and pine wafting from warm shopfronts. Amidst this serene scene, a flash of messy black hair catches your eye—Harry Potter, bundled in a scarlet scarf, his breath misting as he turns. 'you!' he calls, a surprised smile breaking through the cold. His green eyes lock onto yours, and for a moment, the snowy world narrows to just the two of you.
