christmas was a huge thing at hogwarts, and no doubt did they do it well.

warmth and festivity hit you every time you walked into the hall, fake snow falling graciously from the night sky casted over, the lively tree in the corner as it towered over.
how on earth hagrid managed to carry such thing - let alone find one that big - was beyond your knowledge.

however, one thing you disliked was the fact it was always so bloody cold.
no matter how many layers and jumpers you would put on, you never seemed to be warm enough. you could swear it was just your own clothes that were cursed.

"cold, l/n?" draco mocked.
"pleasantly warm." you replied sarcastically, getting a light chuckle from the blonde.
he shoves his hands in his coat pockets, "why don't you put on more layers?"
"i have five on right now."
"ah, thought you looked more marshmallow today."
you fake gasp at him, "how rude of you."
he laughs, and you laugh along with him as you walked back inside the castle after class.

"i swear," draco starts, "it should be a crime to put us out in the cold like that."
you held back a sniffle, "i agree. then they'll complain about us getting sick and not wrapping up."
"exactly." draco says, the ending to his word beginning to fade as he looks at your trembling body, "are you actually okay?"
"i'm cold draco, i'm not okay." you slightly snap, wrapping your arms over your torso to try and gain some sort of warmth. draco begins to faf beside you, but you keep your gaze straight as you both had towards dinner for the evening.

"here." draco says, making you look at the green and grey jumper in his hands.
you frown, stopping in the corridor, "excuse me?"
"you're not dumb, y/n. take it or get hyperthermia."
you laugh, taking off your bag and coat, letting him hold it as you slid his jumper on.

for some reason, it was surprisingly warm. he wasn't even wearing it beforehand, it was folded in his bag like always. how he hadn't needed to put it on due to the weather baffled you completely.
however, you instantly thanked him once warmth greeted your body, giving your blemished, cold hands warmth as the sleeves draped over them.

draco stepped forwards and wrapped your coat around your shoulders, letting you put your arms in before he folded you into his side as you continued walking, "if you are still cold after dinner, we can head back and get you some hot chocolate and a blanket by the fire, if you want?"
you both walk into the hall, christmas warming your heart, "where can i sign for it to be cold at all times? i'll take the sacrifice if you're going to look after me."
draco looks down at you, "careful, don't jinx it."
