As winter drew near, flowers were covered in a thin sheet of snow, bugs and forest animals began to migrate and hibernate, and trees were bare to the bone.

You know this change happens once a year, and you always try to make the most of this beautiful weather.

You noticed your ears and nose would get red throughout this time, but it didn't really affect you in anyway. You embraced this special time of year, even if your appearance changed in just the slightest.

You always wondered what snow was for, how it happened, and where it came from.

Usually you would use a small wooden shovel you made to scoop off snow off your flowers so they can breath.

Some of your flowers would die or wilt, and you would grieve over there deaths every once in a while. A small pain would prick you every time a flower died, probably the only times you've ever felt pain before.

You kept scooping up snow with your shovel and putting it in your basket when suddenly, you uncovered a very peculiar looking plant. A spikey black plant half covered in snow. 

You tried your best to scoop off the rest of the snow but to your surprise, a resting shikamaru was uncovered.

You quirked your head to the side in confusion and poked the boys cheek.

It was very cold.

The Nara began to stir awake from your poke, and opened his eyes very slowly. His vision was blurry for a second, and he rubbed his eyes to get a better look at the person hovering above him.

"(Y/n)?!" He suddenly shot up and started to shiver. "Gosh its so cold," His nose was red and his ears. Just like yours.

"Good morning Shikamaru!" You greeted. 

The Nara, still shivering, gave you a tired but flushed look before lying back down. You followed, wanting to spend time with your friend.

You wondered if the cold had gotten into his head because he began pointing out different clouds that looked like things you could find in real life.
