【HP】I don’t want to fall in love, I just want to mess around

It started to snow in the evening.

The tiny snowflakes fall like grains of salt, making a soothing "rustle" sound.

When the sky turned completely dark, it gradually became larger, turning from salt-like snow particles into large catkin-like snowflakes.

Several younger students ran to have a snowball fight outside the castle. Laughter echoed in the air, making people involuntarily feel happy with them.

Umbridge was not seen during the day, except in the Great Hall during evening meals.

As soon as she appeared, she criticized the students who were making trouble outside, ruining the good festival atmosphere.

After dinner, everyone returned to the dormitory early. The weather was cold. Compared to wandering outside and being criticized by Umbridge, it was obviously more comfortable to return to the warm lounge.

Ernie and Justin played wizard chess again in the lounge. Esther originally wanted to go back and read some extracurricular books before going to bed, but Justin pulled her into playing with him.

Ernie looked on silently, but he was actually quite good at playing wizard chess. Esther and Justin, two people who grew up in the Muggle world, had never played much and lost two games.

"I keep losing today," Justin complained.

But E's face blossomed with a smile. He swept away the depression at noon today, and his whole body was radiant because he had defeated his sister and good brother opposite him: "Then there is no way, who made me smart? I have figured out the solution at noon today. The rules are preparing for a comeback, if Malfoy hadn't come to cause trouble, I would have definitely won!"

Esther expressed doubts about his bold words.

They played a few more games, and Esther and Justin, who were gradually getting used to it, began to fight back. The two of them together naturally had a much greater advantage than Ernie alone. Later, they gradually tied and even beat him once or twice.

They played until late at night before they couldn't bear to go back to sleep.

Before going to bed, Esther checked the Christmas gifts prepared for everyone to ensure that they would be delivered to the right people without any mistakes.

After confirming, she washed up and went to bed, getting ready for Christmas.

The biological clock caused Esther to wake up on time the next day.

After yawning, she rolled over and walked out of bed, and came to the window of the dormitory. When she opened it, a gust of cold wind blew away her sleepiness. There was a vast expanse of white outside the window, and the cold wind carried fine snowflakes that fell on her face, and instantly turned into water droplets.

She closed the window and turned around to see a pile of gifts piled beside her bed, so she opened the gifts first and guessed who gave the gift while opening it.

When she opened the third gift, she saw the card with Draco's handwriting.

[Merry Christmas, we will be together forever. 】

There was only one short sentence on the card, and Esther put the card away while complaining about his childishness.

Then he turned his attention to the gift he gave.

This is a fist-sized crystal ball, with an exquisite castle inside and a green dragon lying on the castle showing off its power.

Shake the crystal ball gently, and two cute Q-version-like little people will come out of the castle. The green dragon on the roof will circle and fly out and land next to the little people. Then the little people will stand on the dragon's side. On his body, he pinched his waist and flew into the air with the green dragon very proudly. The green dragon roars as it breathes fire, and when the fire goes out, it briefly leaves a charred silhouette in the air.

It is not difficult to recognize Draco and her from the appearance of the two little figures, and it is not difficult to recognize the charred figure floating in the air. Even if you don't draw the iconic lightning, you can think of it with your toes. Who comes out.

Esther played with interest for a long time and found that different plots would occur with different degrees of shaking. For example, when the shaking was relatively violent at the beginning, the two little people would hold each other out, and then hold hands and run towards the green dragon together.

If they continue to sway while the green dragon is circling them, the little person representing Esther will fall from the air, and then the little person representing Draco will fly down handsomely on a broomstick to catch the falling Esther. special.

Also, Harry is not the only one who appears burned. If you try a few more times, you will find that Ron and some other Gryffindor students will appear, but Harry appears more frequently.

This gift is really exquisite, and you can tell that it was made by Draco himself.

Esther simply doesn’t like it too much!

After playing for a while, she placed the crystal ball on her desk and began to open other people's gifts.

Except for Draco's gift, everyone else's gifts were similar to previous years, except that the gift from her grandfather also included a reply letter.

It was a reply to the letter she had written to her grandfather yesterday.

She opened it and read it carefully, gradually feeling confident.

It took a long time to open all the gifts. After she put all the gifts away, Ernie's call came from outside.

Esther went out in response and saw Ernie and Justin waiting for her outside.

"Ace, Merry Christmas! I love the gift you gave me!"

Ernie grinned at Esther.

Justin also said: "Merry Christmas! Today's breakfast must be very rich."

"Merry Christmas!" Esther greeted them too.

They walked out of the lounge together and headed towards the auditorium.

The auditorium has been decorated today, and it has a festive atmosphere with the ceiling covered with snowflakes.

The breakfast was indeed very rich as Justin said, because there were not many students staying in school and everyone ate at the same table.

In the entire Slytherin, only Draco stayed in school with another unknown third-year girl. This girl was relatively silent, but Draco was very happy.

He held a new broomstick in his hand and said loudly and arrogantly: "Oh, I don't know who gave this to me as a gift. It's really embarrassing to give such a generous gift."

His words attracted the attention of all the students present, and everyone looked at the broomstick in his hand.

The appearance of this broomstick is very similar to the Firebolt, but the details are somewhat different.

Seeing that everyone was paying attention to the broom in his hand, he raised his head even more proudly and explained loudly: "A specially customized Firebolt is made of materials that are not only more expensive and better than ordinary Firebolts, but its appearance is also better than that of ordinary Firebolts." The ordinary Firebolt has undergone some reforms, making it smoother and faster. The most important thing is that it has my name engraved on it. It is the only one in the world!"

His words caused other people to exclaim, and everyone gathered around to see if what he said was true or false.

Draco generously let everyone watch, even the Gryffindor students he hated, he didn't say anything bad, he just looked at them, and he didn't allow others to touch them.

Esther didn't join in the fun because the Firebolt was a gift from her.

Draco obviously knew it was a gift from her, so he didn't allow anyone else to touch it.

Across the crowd, Esther and Draco looked at each other. Draco suppressed the urge to rush over, hug her and spin her around, and gave her a bright smile.
