"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!" Theodore screamed.

It was December 29th, Mattheo's 16th birthday.

"Five more minutes please" Mattheo pleaded.

"No! Now!" Theodore pulled his covers down. Pansy helping him as they pulled him onto his feet.

"We are treating you to a broomsticks breakfast" Theodore announces, throwing clothes at Mattheo.

They decided to walk to Hogsmeade to take in the fresh air of newly laid snow.

"Isn't this just amazing! I love the snow!" Kiara started to skip around, admiring the scenery.

"It's not bad" Mattheo scoffed, looking around with his hands in his pockets.

"Oh come on! It's like a fairytale" she ran up to him grabbing his hands, dragging him around in a circle.

"What's got into you?" Pansy laughed.

"I'm just in a good mood that's all" Kiara admits, letting go of his hands.

Theodore smiling at the smile across her face, as she kept admiring the views.

"We should build a snowman!" She spits out.

"No thank you!" Mattheo snaps softly.

"Oh come on! It will be fun!" Kiara smiles, sending them all puppy dog eyes.

"I'm in!" Pansy wraps her arm through Kiara's.

"I suppose it might be fun" Theodore smirks, looking towards Mattheo.

"Okay fine" Mattheo rolls his eyes. Kiara's face brightens up as he agrees.

Kiara comes to a stop, letting the others catch up. "Look it's the ledge I pushed you off" she announces towards Mattheo.

"Sorry I don't recall" he walks past, ignoring her.

She starts laughing "don't worry. I won't do it on your birthday"

"You won't be doing it ever again!" He snaps, turning around to face her.

Theodore and Pansy start to laugh at the panic in Mattheo's face.

"Just don't piss me off" Kiara smirks, brushing past him, with a slight tease in her gaze.

Theodore and Pansy sat down next to each other as they entered the three broomsticks, making Mattheo and Kiara sit together.

They ordered their food. Mattheo lightly grazing his leg against Kiara's with every movement made.

A sense of warmth comforted her as their legs were pressed together.

Mattheo reached down under the table to scratch his leg, slyly stroking hers with his pinky as he glides his hand back up.

Kiara shivers slightly at his touch, tensing.

"You okay?" Theodore looking directly at her.

"Ah yeah. Just a cold shiver that's all" she nervously giggles, taking a bite of her breakfast.

Mattheo lightly exhales a chuckle, so quiet that Theodore couldn't hear. Kiara nudges him hard under the table with her leg to shut him up.

"What we going to do after we build a snowman?" Kiara perks up.

"I'm going back to bed" Mattheo confesses.

"What! No! You can't!" Pansy demands, giving him small daggers.
