I hope this is what you asked for :)

Minerva X reader where the reader is a professor and the two spend Christmas together drinking tea and talking as Minerva smokes

This story is going to take place in the evening of Christmas Eve. You and Minevra have known each other for years and you both call each other by first names since you thought calling each other professor was a bit too much.

It was Christmas time, the snow was falling, students were chatting excitedly about how it was Christmas Eve and most importantly, you had finally got a break. You were student free for at least two weeks or so, and you couldn't be happier, you were sat in Minevra's classroom talking away about the new year and what you were going to teach next, you were also complaining about certain students being nasty to you in your class. "I can't believe they'd do such a thing! Honestly Minerva, the kids are getting worse...how do you cope?" You asked taking a sip of your tea that you had made just a few moments ago, you were sitting on the desk swinging your legs even though she had told you countless times not to. "Patience Y/n. You have to be firm with them and give them time, though not all are the same" She grabs a cup for herself too and pours the tea in, making sure to put lots of milk in it. "Hey! Don't use all of my milk, I'll need another after this one" you giggle happily, you always enjoyed her company no matter what situation you were in. She smiles sweetly at you and takes her place in her chair, relaxing as she sips her tea. "Oo! I have to go get something from my classroom...You don't mind if I get it do you?" You question placing your cup on your saucer and getting up off the old desk to leave. "Be my guest" she takes another sip of her tea, clearly savouring the taste. You skip down the empty hallway, very unprofessionally but you were happy, you honestly didn't care, and finally you reached your classroom. When you opened the door you were glad everything was still in tact, you had let a couple of students practice a few spells in there for upcoming lessons, you would lend help to anyone that needed it. You walk over to your desk unlocking the drawer with you key, and you pulled out a wrapped present, it was small but you knew Minerva wouldn't want nothing big, though she would appreciate it nonetheless. You close your drawer, locking it and place your key in your breast pocket, you didn't trust anyone not to go through your stuff, you once caught a student trying to steal your chocolate frog collection cards, you weren't happy with them at all.

You enter Minerva's classroom and smelt..smoke? You look towards her and shake your head with a small laugh. "Thought you'd given that up?" She picks her head up that was slightly lowered. "Oh be quiet, it relaxes me" she shushes you as you approach her, taking your blade back on the creaky desk. The time was now 12:21am. There was silence in the room, it was peaceful, that was until you broke it. "Merry Christmas Minerva" you pass her the gift and she gives you a weary look and opens it cautiously, not knowing whether to trust you or not. Inside there was a simple black box, inside the box laid a pendant. It was silver and you had looked through lots of spells to let it the person who has touched it, show them what they wished, much like the mirror of Erised however this showed to what you wanted, not what your heart desired. Minerva gave a happy smile, something you'd cherish forever. "You never cease to amaze me y/n". Surprisingly, she pulls out a gift from behind her. It looked oddly shaped but you didn't think nothing of it. You opened it carefully, making sure not to make too much mess. She had gotten you a Bowtruckle, she knew that you had an interest in them and what you didn't know was that she had actually gotten a small plant in your chambers that the Bowtruckle would happily live on. "Oh my...How did you...?" You look at her with such admiration and happiness and she returns the look. "I believe I can do many things Y/n, however most are just for me to know and hope you never find out" She carries on smoking before putting it out and making herself another cup of tea. "Thank you..But don't tell me you did something dangerous to get this?" Minerva stifles a laugh back as she shakes her head, "I won't tell you then, if you insist" You roll your eyes at her commentary and go to pour yourself another cup of tea, unfortunately Minerva had used the last of it, including your milk. You give a big sigh and turn around to look at her but she was looking rather..smugly at you. "You're letting me borrow your book for a while, I'll take that as your apology for stealing my tea" You take the book of her shelf, "Very well y/n, it's only fair. Have you heard from Professor Dumbledore recently? He said he wanted to take you to the muggle world to get some more sherbet lemons, since he knows you will like something from the place, will you be going with him?" You glance at Minerva but then place your eyes on the book, tracing your finger along the broken spine of the book, it felt cold and very dusty. "Maybe. It'd be more fun with you" you give her a sincere smile and she looks at you with a slight blush on her cheeks, an "Oh" managed for break at her mouth before the room filled with silence once again.

It was a very beautiful night and you were very glad you got the chance to spend it with your best friend.
