Winter has always been one of Hermione’s favorite times of the year. When she was a child, her father used to help her make snowmen and her mum always had warm chocolate waiting after. Winter means cold hands, runny noses, and hot chocolate with lots of marshmallows.

Now that she’s at Hogwarts, her routine has changed. There are no longer snowmen and mugs of chocolate accompanied by her mum’s warm hug. Instead, there are snowball fights and snow angels. There is Harry with his snow covered glasses and Ron with his pink cheeks and chattering teeth. There’s a quiet silence as most of the students stay inside the warm castle and the grounds become winter’s playground.

She loves to see the trees glisten with icicles after the first snowfall and to watch the castle become covered in a blanket of white flakes as the season progresses. She will often sneak down to the lake by herself, bundled up in her warmest clothes because it just isn’t the same if she uses a warming charm. She likes to sit by the frozen lake with her cheeks flushed from the cold as she watches the sky. The clouds are always lovely during winter and there’s something unbelievably magical about feeling snowflakes on her tongue.
