When the students of Hogwarts awoke the next morning, they found that there had been a blizzard over-night, leaving the school grounds dazzling white with perfect snow.

Since Christmas was so close, Dumbledore surprised everyone during breakfast by announcing classes were cancelled, so that the students could enjoy their last day before going home for the holidays.

"Can you believe our luck?" Ron asked happily. "No classes all day!"

Hermione didn't seem very pleased as she had been looking forward to certain lessons. "Now what am I supposed to do with my time?"

"Have fun?" Harry suggested with a chuckle.

Ginny smiled, "even the Slytherins are getting into it."

The Gryffindors turned their heads to look, and sure enough, the Slytherin students were talking excitedly with each other. They even looked happy, for once. (Klee: Woah! Talk about shocking)

Harry's eyes were drawn to Draco, who was leaning over towards Star as she whispered something to him. The Slytherin boy smiled, turning his attention to Harry. He winked.

Harry blushed, smiling back.

Star smirked, then made kissy-face gestures. Draco gave her a shove and she fell off her seat, much to the amusement of the other Slytherins.

Harry laughed too.

Beside him, Ron frowned as he saw his best friend laughing and looking at Draco.

The red-haired boy didn't notice Seamus smiling mischievously in his direction, but Hermione did. She giggled to herself.

As much as she liked her classes, playing matchmaker was *much* more fun, indeed.

~*~

"So, you're not going home?" Star asked, clapping her hands together to get rid of the access snow sticking to her palms.

"No," Draco replied, combing the snow she'd chucked at him out of his hair. "I'm staying here for the holiday."

"Why, so you can shag with Howarts' hottest Gryffindor?"

"What *is* with you and having sex?"

"It's natural!"

"Your obsessed with my sex life, and it's scary."

Star smirked at him, "you just noticed this?"

Rolling his eyes, Draco turned away from his friend and started back towards the school. The two of them, as well as a lot of the other students, had come outside to enjoy the day off in the snow. The other wizards and witches in training were having snowball fights and building snowmen. All the fun stuff that everyone, wizard and muggle alike, loved to do in the cold weather.

Star ran up to Draco, jumping on his back, "piggy-back ride, Dracy!"

Caught off guard, the Slytherin boy stumbled, almost falling head-first into the snow, "Star! You weigh as much as a cow! Have you been sneaking Chocolate Frogs before bed again?"

She bonked him on the head, "wouldn't you like to know! And I do *not* weigh as much as a cow!"

"Fine, a pig then."

"Jackass!"

"Muggle!"

"Harry Potter's lover!"

"Shut up, Star!"

"Make me!"

"Fat mouth!"

"Mummy's boy!"

"Dumbass!"

"Brat!"

"Bitch!"

"Thank you!"

Draco sighed, "you're impossible."

"I know, and I love you too."

"Yeah, yeah.. now get off before I drop you." He teetered dangerously backwards and she hopped off.

"Why? Is riding you reserved for Potter?" Star snickered.

Dinner that night was a blast, literally. Mini firecrackers were set off by the Weasley twins, much to everyone else's entertainment. Enchanted instruments played in the air far above the tables, filling the Great Hall with Christmas music. The tables were packed with food of all kinds, including candy and other assorted goodies that would have made Hermione's parents' dreams come true. They were dentists, after all.

"Where's Ron?" Harry asked, upon seeing that his best friend had yet to join them.

"Oh, don't worry about him. He said he wasn't hungry," Hermione assured him.

"How can you act so tranquil? What if he's sick? What if he's depressed? What if--"

"Harry," Hermione cut him off with a smile, "he'll be more then fine soon enough."

"How do you know?"

"Easy. Seamus went to see him."

Catching on, Harry grinned.

Upstairs in the Gryffindor boy's dormitories, Ron was lying on his bed, one leg dangling off the side of the mattress and his arms behind his head.

"I guess.. Harry chooses Malfoy.."

Of course Ron still considered Harry his best friend, he was just disappointed.

"Very big of you, Ronniekins."

Ron sat up at the voice. Seamus was leaning back against the closed door, his arms crossed over his chest and a smile on his face. He blew a purple bubble, the bubble gum popping only to be sucked back in his mouth. (Crystal: that was for you, Scratches! ^_~)

"What're you doing here, Seamus? Shouldn't you be at the feast?"

"I could ask you the same thing."

Seamus straightened, walking to the bed. Ron didn't say anything as he watched him, then blushed when the other boy stopped in front of him and leaned close.

"What're you doing?" Ron asked nervously.

Seamus smiled, lifting a hand and placing it on Ron's cheek, "I know your disappointed about Harry, but I want you to know that you mean a lot to me."

"I do?"

"Of course! Your so cute."

Ron's reply was muffled by Seamus' mouth, which was now covering his own. The red-haired boy was too shocked at first to kiss back, Seamus' tongue now running over his lips. Ron closed his eyes, opening his mouth in invitation. He was assaulted by the taste of grapes caused by the other boy's bubble gum as Seamus' tongue stroked his own, learning all the ridges of his mouth. Seamus smiled mentally as he felt Ron kissing him back.

Seamus moved his mouth from Ron's, his lips traveling across the other boy's jaw line and down his neck. Ron lifted his head back, giving his soon-to-be-lover better access to his skin.

"Let me help you forget about Harry for now," Seamus murmured, tearing at both Ron's clothes and his own.

Ron shuddered, moaning as their bare skin touched. He laid back, arching with a groan as Seamus' hot mouth traveled over his chest. Seamus felt intoxicated by Ron and he couldn't seem to get enough of his taste. He moved down Ron's body, pausing as he reached the other boy's need. Smiling, he leaned his head down.

Ron cried out in pleasure as he felt Seamus' lips wrap around his member, his fingers burying in the other boy's sandy colored hair.

"Seamus..!" he moaned, his eyes closed in pleasure.

The other boy made a slight choking nose, lifting his head and releasing Ron. "I swallowed my gum."

Ron burst out laughing, despite the situation he was in.

"It's not funny," Seamus said in mock hurt, sliding up his lover's body. "That'll be in my tummy for seven years now, you know."

"That's just a muggle superstition."

"Easy for you to say, it's not your tummy."

"Aw," Ron cooed, "poor Seamus."

"I know how you can make me feel better," Seamus grinned wickedly.

"I'm sure you do, and you're free to enlighten me."

"Wouldn't have it any other way, love."

Seamus swung his leg over Ron, sitting up as he got on top of his lover. Biting his lip in preparation, the Irish boy positioned himself and sat down quickly.

Ron gasped as he entered the other boy in one push, his hands clutching Seamus' waist.

It hurt, of course. But Seamus was glad that there had been some spit on Ron before hand, that gave him just enough lubrication so it didn't hurt too badly. With a smile, Seamus began to move up and down, his eyes on Ron's face.

The other boy's eyes fluttered to a close as he groaned in pleasure, his hands on Seamus' waist to help him move. It didn't take them long to establish a rhythm. When Seamus moved down, Ron would thrust up. The room was filled with pants and moans as the two worked together, their bodies dripping with sweat. Ron released Seamus' waist with one hand, wrapping his fingers around the other boy's member and milking it in time with his thrusts.

Seamus moaned in pleasure, quickening his pace. Light exploded behind the boy's eyes as he came hard. Ron followed not a minute after, groaning.

Seamus carefully moved, releasing Ron from his body. He fell to the bed beside his lover, who wrapped his arm around him despite the fact they were both sweaty.

"So, did I help at all?" Seamus asked with a grin, looking tired but happy.

"I'll say," Ron replied, looking just as tired and happy. "In fact, I think you may need to help me out again really soon."

"Count on it."
