the snow flurry was over.
The park in Ottery st Catchpole was quiet, covered in a white frosting. The air was still. The odd person scurried along the path, but for the most part, the park was empty. The only movement came from a young girl with a shock of electric blue hair, wrapped up against the chill in a thick black and yellow scarf, leaning on the back of an icy park bench.
Tonks checked her watch again. Charlie had said 1:00, hadn’t he?
She glanced up at the sound of crunching snow, but it was only a solitary person making their way towards the village. She looked back down at her hands, picking fluff off her new fingerless gloves. The annoying thing about snow was that everybody was wearing hats, so she couldn’t pick Charlie out by his mop of red hair.
She shivered. In her haste to meet Charlie, she’d forgotten her hat, and it was very chilly.
Something cold and wet dripped down her back. She squealed.
A set of strong arms wrapped around her waist from behind, and an amused voice whispered in her ear “You’re such an easy target Nymph.”
“Charlie!” Tonks turned round, grinning as he Kissed her softly. She gave him a slap on his arm. “That’s for putting snow down my top.” She said, bending down and rubbing some in his face.
He laughed. “Fair enough, I ‘spose.” He kissed her again.
“Happy Birthday Nymph.”
“Thanks.” She kissed him again, rougher this time, and he chuckled as she brushed her woolen hands over his cheeks. He took her hands in one of his, reaching into his jacket pocket with the other.
“That reminds me… Mum made you this for your birthday, I had a feeling you’d forget yours…”
He pulled out a black crocheted hat, and pulled it over her head, grinning at the patches of blue that showed through the star shaped holes.
Tonks smiled cheekily. “Thanks. You like it?”
Charlie smirked. “Definitely.” He threw a casual arm round her shoulder, kissing her cheek. “Shall we go get lunch, then?”
“Kay.” Tonks wrapped her arm around his waist, as they made for the path to the village.
The park was silent again.
