Dedicated to laurashibey because I am her Secret Santa! 

I open the door to the roof and walk towards Louis. I'm not wearing my jacket or gloves. If Louis says I could trust him then I am going to try to. It is late, very late actually. We are out past cerfew. Walk quietly towards Louis who is standing close to the edge with a jacket on. He does not notice. I stand beside him and I turn to look at his face. He has his eyes close? I take a deep breath quietly and start.

"I was eight years old"

Louis practicly jumps three feet in the air at the sound of my voice. "Jesus fucking christ Haryy!"

I furrow my eyebrows as I sit down with my feet over the edge.

"I was eight years old when I first learned about my power" I start again "It was during the winter actually and I ventured a little too far out into the woods. I wasn't suppose to be outside by myself but Gemma, my sister, didn't want to go outside. It was 'too cold' to go out and play."

Louis touches my arm lightly. His warm fingertips flush my white skin. Not moving I wait for him to speek. "You don't have to tell me this Harry" 

"But I want to" I say

"Ok then continue" Louis dosen't move his hand from my arm. I don't mind surprisingly. 

"I have always had a liking towards snow all my life. I love winter, it is so buetiful Louis. Winter is quiet, but always ruthless. Irrevocably cold and deceitfully burning to the skin. It can be harsh at times,throwing storms of ice when tempered, but apologetic as it stews in silent shame. It is unforgiving, but also tolerated." I pluck a flower from the pot. This flower seems to be blossoming in this time of year. Gripping the flower between my thumb and forefing it starts to wilter "a season which destroys beauty". 

I point out to the pond behind our dorm, that froze over surprisingly since its almost spring, building. There is a fountain with a pond and other things. It is covered in frost and the fountain/pond is frozen. It has a nice aspect to it when you think about it. "It destroys, but creates its own kind of beauty. Decorated, as if the beauty it creted for itself hasn't been enough. I have always liked winter Louis, but when I was thirteen I realized me and winter. We have a lot in common" 

I smile sadlly as I creat a icicle in my hand "like an icicle I freeze, but I break, I fall, and I shatter" Looking at Louis for the first time since I started talking. "This power I have is not a gift, its not even a curse it is just cruel." 

"Back to the story. I was eight when I went out into the woods. Venturing too far I found a pond where the water has been frozen solid, well at least I thought it was. I was playing near the pond and my toy I had dropped onto the ice and skidded a bit far from my reach. So I stepped onto the frozen water it didn't make a noise or anything. I kept walking and when I finally reached my toy." I laugh humorless. 

"The water cracked and then I was submerged into the freezeing water. Panicing I forgot how to think clearly. I clawed at the ice above me trying to grip it but all I could really think was how cold the water was. I started to scream out for my mum and Gemma anyone to be honest. Out of no where the water started to feel warm and less tingly."

"I don't really remember what really happened after that actaully. I just remember feeling the water around me started to get harder and more slushy. Thats when my mum grabbed me and yanked me out of the water. She ripped off my jacket and put her's on me. I remember telling her 'its warm mummy'" laughing at the memory.

"She had Gemma call the ambulence and when we got to the house they took me to the hospital. The doctor's put me in hot water to bring my temputer back up but I don't know what I did but when they tried to put me in it I started to scream. The room dropped about ten degrees and when they finally got me into the tub the water started to steam around me. I don't know what I did but I froze the water instantly. That's when I went under tests when they told my mum that I had rare powers that have not been seen for hundreds of years."

"It was okay for awhile but I got stronger and stronger. I became more angry and I lost control, thats when I started to wear gloves. I am not ready to tell you how I lost control but I did. What I did, it scarred me, so I started to practiece and took classes to control my anger. I can be very kind and just give off a cool breeze or a harsh blizzard Louis" 

"I have learned to be content with my powers. They don't control me anymore bot like before. I am not so afraid to touch my family without gloves. This school has taught me a few things and I like it here. I like my friends that I have. I like the surroundings and I like you Louis."

"You like me?" Louis says quietly 

"Yes" I say with a smile to him "I have been thinking and I am ready let you in. Just promise me something Louis"

"What?"

"That you won't make me regret it"

Louis is quiet for a moment. "I promise Harry"

I sigh and relax my shoulders. Slowlly I put my head on his shoulder. "Good"

We sit there staring out into the night. I feel relaxed. More than I have felt for a long time. It starts to get a little warmer but I kind of like it. It's a new feeling I have not really felt in a while. Louis' hand is resting on his thigh and I have a feeling to touch it. 

Reaching out slowlly I brush my fingers ontop of his hand. I feel him shiver a bit so I stop and I lift my head a little until Louis stops me. 

"I'm not cold. You just caught me off gaurd a bit and it tickled."

I rest my head back on his shoulder and touch his hand again. Picking up his hand slowlly. "So warm" I whisper

"Well yeah, warm one remember" Louis chuckles

His chukle vibrates through his body.

"Yeah I remember"

I smile softly to myself. This is diffrent and...I like it.

A lot.
