Christmas holiday was close, students everywhere were enjoying the excitement to go home. One morning in mid-December, Hogwarts woke to find itself covered in several feet of snow, the lake had frozen solid, unlike before when it was only an extremely thin layer, now it was safe for skating. Harry had been sneaking glances at Fred whenever he got the opportunity, his Father had explained they would get more and more agitated the longer they went without communicating now that they were both aware. Surprisingly, or not according to Hermione, his Father was okay with his son’s soul mate not only being a Gryffindor but from the Dumbledore following Light family the Weasleys. Draco, Blaise and Theo said as long as they didn't have to hang out with the youngest brother Ronald then they didn't care. Hermione thought it was the best Christmas gift she could've been given, highly enjoying getting revenge on her brother. Pansy and Daphne thought the soulmate thing was so sweet and fairytale like, they just giggled whenever they saw the boys make eye contact then look away blushing. Luna on the other hand would just hum about Nargles, Wrackspurts or some other kind of creature then skip away to join the boys who were usually playing chess. Much to Harry's amusement the Weasley twins were punished for bewitching several snowballs so that they followed Quirrell around, bouncing off the back of his turban, all because he took points off Harry whenever he could.
