Jane POV
November had gone by very quickly. And it was clear the winter had begun. The castle was covered with a thick layer of snow and half of the students were sniffing because of the cold. I think Hogwarts is beautiful during winters. Also it's my last year as a student here and I want to memorize my last winter as good as I can.

On Thursday Mcgonagall canceled our class as did the other teachers. It was simply to cold to sit in the clasrooms all day long.

The twins, Lee and I decided this was the perfect time for a snowball fight. Soon others joined in and it was turned into a full war. Camps were being formed and strategies were being made. It was AMAZING. When we were all soaked and freezing we went to the kitchens, tickled the pear on the portrait and asked the house-elves for some hot chocolate.

On friday students started to pack their belongings when they were going home for winter break. I had packed a small suitcase so I could go visit Charlie in Romania.
I wasn't going to stay long though. I was going for a few days and then I would come back to the castle to capture Peter also I knew Charlie had plans with his parents and as they don't know we're dating, thay can't see me there with him.

The next day Lee and I sat in a compartment and talked and joked around. The twins were staying at Hogwarts as their parents were going to Romania.

After the train ride we said our goodbyes and left. I saw Charlie and ran up to him and tackled him into a hug. He kissed the top of my head and asked if I was ready. I nodded and we apparated to his place.

It was exactly like I remembered it. The pictures of his family were on his desk and in the kitchen he had some boxes with cookies wich I can only assume are the creation of mrs. Weasley. As Charlie wasn't a great cook. I chuckled to myself. Charlie just looked at me funny not being able to understand. Oh how I love that boy.

We went to check on the dragons and I saw how the baby dragon from last time had grown.
His blue color had become more intense and his eyes seemed to be sparkling.

Charlie took me out for some dinner and later on we went dancing it was great.

It was pretty cold outside the next day so we decided to stay in. We played a few games, made out and goofed around.
Later on we tried to make cookies but seeing as he was in charge of putting them in the oven ... well let's just say they came out a little to crispy.

In the evening we went for a stroll through the neighborhood and chatted with some of his friends as we bumped into them. Afterwards we went to sleep.

The third and last day of my visit was bittersweet. The day itself was lovely. We had been ice skating and I had taken him to the movies. He couldn't understand how muggles could make a movie, it was rather funny as he kept on asking me questions. The only reason I knew all about muggles was because I had gone out exploring a lot to the muggle world when I was little. It's not like grandma would have told me anything.

At last the time had come to say goodbye. He gave me a sweet yet passionate kiss and I went back to Hogwarts. I missed him already.

Back at Hogwarts I was immediately greeted by the twins. They new I was coming back today and had been checking my dorm every hour until I got here. I hadn't told them I was going to Charlie, instead I had said I needed to check on the house and Kreacher and that I had some meetings planned at the ministry. I hate lying to my friends but this way they wouldn't tease me for liking Charlie.
"Hey Jayjay!" They yelled in unison while hugging me tightly.
" Can't. breath." I choked out. They loosened their grip immediately and mumbled an apology.
Those boys were going to be the death of me. But I love them so at least I will die happy.
"It's okay. Let's prank someone what about... snivelus?"
They grinned at me and we started planning. We ended up hexing him so he would sing Christmas carols every time he tried to speak. It was hilarious.

At dinner he saw us laughing and came up to us. He was fuming with rage and if looks could kill, we would have been six feet underground. The funny thing was when he made the mistake of trying to yell at us.
"JINGLE BELLS, JINGLE BELLS
JINGLE ALL THE WAY!!!"
He bellowed at us. Now everyone who had stayed at Hogwarts was laughing, even Mcgonagall cracked a smile.

The next few days snape would glare at us every chance he got but didn't speak seeing as the hex only wore of at Christmas.

On Christmas morning the twins ran in my room. Why had I given them the password, oh Merlin how could I have been that stupid.
They ran up to my bed, jumped on it while exclaiming the obvious.
"IT'S CHRISTMAS! WAKE UP, WAKE UP!"
They were beaming at me and I chuckled. I slowly got up and they got quiet. I turned around and saw they were both blushing a bright red. I smirked at them.
"What? What is it?" They looked at me, then at eachother then at the ground.
" Oh come on. Just tell me. Jayjay wants to know. Please!" I pleaded putting on the biggest puppy dog eyes I could manage. Finally Fred spoke up.
" You don't were pyjama's..."
" We've never seen you in anything so disposing..."
I looked down at my clothes and understood what they meant. I only wore a shirt and underpants.
" You can't handle seeing my bare legs?" I asked a little bemused but also a little embarrassed.
They mumbled something incoherent while walking out of my bedroom into my dorm. I chuckled to myself and got dressed we had presents to get to.

When I was dressed, I went to the dorm and saw they had brought their presents with them and had displayed them around the couch. I sat down beside them and we spoke in unison.
" Let's get started."

We started unwrapping and I looked at what I had gotten. I had a Weasley jumper from mrs. Weasley, a lot of candy from the students who had come to me with their problems, the twins and Lee had gotten me some pranking equipment, Charlie had sent me a beautiful necklace and some ever blooming flowers, Remus had sent me a charm bracelet - which I couldn't possibly accept now could I?- Hermione had given me a book about elemental powers and that was it. It was so much I was overjoyed. I looked at the twins who had identical smiles to mine. I had given them both a lot of Zonkos, chocolate frogs and a T-shirt wich said GINGERS!!! It looked pretty awesome.

Afterwards we went to breakfast, me in my weasley jumper - the twins in their GINGERS!!! -shirt.

The days went by and soon I started looking for Peter again. I needed the Map but I knew the twins had given it to Harry as we already knew all the passaways. I went to the gryffindor common room and found Harry sitting in the couch talking to Ron.
" Hey Harry, could I ask you for a favor?"
He looked at me like he couldn't believe I would just start talking to him. But he quickly composed himself and answered.
" Yeah sure uhm what do you need?"
" Could I borrow the Map?"
" The Map? Uhm yeah sure I quess... I'll go get it..." he stood up and left to the boy's dorms.
When he got back he handed me the Map. Now I could finally get my hands on Peter.
