"So, are you excited for our third year?" Rapunzel, third year Hufflepiff, asked her best friend, Merida, a red haired Scottish Gryffindor.
"Yeah, of course." Merida replied, "But that Frost is gonna get it! How dare he tell people that i'm muggle born. I tell ye, this year Gryffindor are goin' ta win the quidditch cup. I don't care if Jack is seeker. This year I've got my game on."
Rapunzel laughed at her friend as she closed the door to their dorm room and changed into her uniform, Merida doing the same.
"This year is going to be a special year. I can just feel it." Rapunzel said, braiding her waist long hair into a beautiful blonde plait and flicking her wand in a few places to create flowers sticking through each braid.
"When are ye going to get yer hair cut? If I didn't know ye better I'd say you have a weird attachment to your hair." Merida stated, chuckling slightly.
"You wouldn't be far off." Rapunzel giggled along with her. "I suppose I'm just so used to having it long that I can't really imagine it being any shorter.
They both shot up as the bell rang. They looked at each other with a wide smile plastered on both of their faces.
"Hogsmeade!" They both cried in unison, grabbing their cloaks and running out of their room and into the courtyard.
"Okay everyone, welcome back. Everyone get arranged into your houses." North, their head teacher for that year, called out, showing everyone where each of the houses are to line up.
"Hey, Rapunzel!" Her friend, Toothiana, who was in the same house as her, greeted as Rapunzel waved goodbye to Merida.
"Hey, Ana. How were your holidays?" Rapunzel asked politely.
"Wonderful, thank you." The colourful haired girl replied. "How was yours?"
"You're welcome. And they were okay I guess, I'm glad to be back though."
An hour passed and everyone was visiting the stalls that were open. Rapunzel was standing in front of a shop called 'Magic decor'.
"Rapunzel, are you coming?" Merida called to her friend who was intently looking at magic snow globes that showed the thing you want most in front of an image that was placed inside the globe.
"I'll catch up." Rapunzel replied, waving her friend off.
The blonde sighed, still not being able to see anything in the globe apart from the image that was pre-set.
"What's up, Blondie?". Boys voice asked, causing her to jump slightly.
She looked towards the person who was wearing Slytherin uniform. His shirt was untucked and his tie was limply hanging, barely knotted properly. She recognised the boy as Jack Frost, the same boy that Merida had been complaining about merely hours before.
"Huh. Oh, hi Jack." She said turning back to the window. "Nothing, just looking."
"My dad got me one of those when I was younger." He said, walking beside her and looking through the window with her. "I saw myself here in fact." Jack explained, "What I wanted more than anything was to go to Hogwarts. Just like my father."
"Well, since that came true, what do you see now?" She inquired, not taking her eyes off of one particular snow globe.
He looked at the selection of snow globes and them at her. He stared for a moment and then looked back towards the shop.
"Um, winning the quidditch cup." He said hesitantly.
"But you've won it every year." She said, finally looking at him.
"Yeah... I suppose there's just nothing else I really want." He said, scratching the back of his neck. "What about you? What do you see?"
"Nothing." She replied sadly.
The girl who has everything... The girl who wants nothing.
"Come with me." He said, tugging at her cloak and pulling her into the shop. "Which one catches your eye?" He asked.
"Um, that one I suppose." She replied, pointing the a pink globe with a girl in a tower leaning down with long flowing blonde hair.
Jack picked it up and inspected it. "She looks like you." He stated, putting it on the counter.
"What are you doing?" She asked gently.
"You like this one, right?"
"Yeah but... I mean you don't have to buy it for me."
He paid the lady and passed it to Rapunzel. She gave him a warm smile.
"Thank you." She said sincerely.
She then hugged him, catching him off guard.
"You're welcome." He chuckled slightly, hugging her back before pulling away.
"Rapunz- Hey!" Merida called as they walked out of the shop. "What're ye doing with Frost boy over here?" Merida scowled.
"Nothing, she was lost and I was helping her way. No harm being done frizz ball."
"Well, I can take it from here." She said, grabbing Rapunzel and dragging her away.
Rapunzel turned her head and waved at him whilst mouthing thank you. He replied to her with a smile before walking the opposite way and joining back up with his friends from Slytherin.
"Awh, that's cute." Merida stated, desiring to the globe that Rapunzel had placed on the window sill of their dorm room.
"Yeah, it is." Rapunzel said, taking her cloak off.
There was a knock at the door and Merida answered. She excused herself as she stepped outside to talk to her friend, Hiccup. Rapunzel turned back to the snow globe and gasped slightly seeing what the snow globe was showing.
Her and Jack.
