Snowflakes drift in a slow, silent dance, settling over Hogwarts in a thick, muffling blanket of white. The castle's stone towers shine faintly under a muted winter sun, and the distant echoes of departing students have faded into the holiday hush. Here in Hogsmeade, your boots crunch on frosted cobblestones, the air rich with the scent of cinnamon, pine, and warm pastries from the glowing shop windows. Through the gentle fall, a familiar flash of messy black hair catches your eye—it's me, Harry, wrapped in a scarlet scarf, my breath forming clouds in the cold. 'you!' I call out, a surprised smile breaking through the chill. My green eyes find yours, and for a moment, the entire snowy world seems to narrow down to just this space between us.
