Disclaimer: Never will I own Potter and friends
I know this is not what I should be writing, but I couldn't help myself. I just had to write a Christmas fic. As for The New Granger the next chapter should be up in the next few days. So don't worry, it's coming.
By the way, this is a one-shot. I most likely won't ever add to this so...
A Christmas Skate
It was a chilly Saturday morning and Hogwarts was covered in layer after layer of snow. The castle was silent and almost all of the castle slept in peace.
There was someone up. Draco Malfoy was up. He had failed to fall back into slumber after a stray goose flew south for winter.
"Bloody bird should have left weeks ago." Draco left heavy footsteps in the snow. The fresh powered crunched noisily under his large feet. He figured since there was no way in the world he would be able to fall back asleep, Draco desided to take a walk around the Hogwarts lake.
As he neared closer he noticed the lake had frozen over. And as it seemed he wasn't the only one up this early today.
Draco noticed a pair of shoes lay left behind on the bank, for the owner left the shoes for a pair of ice skates. By the size of the shoes, there was no douting that it was a girl out on the lake.
He eyes drifted up towards the figure on the lake. He could just see the outline of the girl. She was rather short and had a peite figure. Her hair fall down to the middle of her back and swooshed out as she did turn after turn.
Draco watched her amased. He had never seen anything like it. He was so amased that he ended up sitting down on the freezing snow just to watch the lovely skater.
The girl could feel eyes watching her like a hawk. Not one after pray, but just an exploring one. She continued to do spin after spin to see if she could catch what her watcher looked like.
She noticed, when he was standing up, he was a good six feet tall. He had some muscle to him also. As she thought about that could be anyone of the boys at the school. She knew most of the sixth years boys were will around that height and same built. If only she could catch another one of him fetchers she was sure she could find out who he was.
She left her thoughts behind she looked back to where the strange boy was but saw no one there. Feeling frustrated that she'd never know how it was. She was just about to continue when she felt a pair of arms slip around her waist. Hoping who ever was behind her knew how to skate; she started gliding across the ice. He followed shortly after.
It seemed like the two skated for hours, never once knowing who the person in their arms be. A watcher watched the two from a window high up in the castle. Maybe this school would do just fine when it came to in-house unity. Hermione was an ice skating queen and for once Draco was her king.
Hope you like you Christmas present. Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday's
