The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

Tom was a little surprised to see Hermione appear in the Astronomy Tower, "Hermione, what's wrong with you...didn't you take the train home?" He said in shock, while regaining his appearance.

He didn't like talking to Hermione with anyone else's face.

"I changed my mind before the train left." Hermione tilted her head and clasped her hands behind her back. She put her left foot behind her right calf, tapped her toes on the ground, and tapped the ground lightly.

"A bit of a surprise, isn't it?"

Tom nodded.

Hermione lowered her head, her body trembled slightly, and stopped talking to Tom. She just rubbed her toes on the ground from left to right.

"Aren't you... cold?" Tom's downed brain finally responded, but he said something that made Hermione dumbfounded.

On a December night, even velvet, the warmest stocking material, could not protect against the cold winds of the Scottish Highlands. Although it is said that "fresh milk should be kept warm and ham should be refrigerated," the weather is still too cold.

"Cold!" She raised her head and said pitifully, "It's really cold today!"

Tom ran into the astronomy classroom in three steps, closed the door to the rooftop, and lit the fireplace. He and Hermione sat down with their backs to the fire.

"Tom, my legs are cold!" Hermione sat very close to Tom and gently rubbed Tom with her calf.

After saying this, a blush appeared on her face, and Tom lowered his head, not knowing how to answer.

Time seems to have stopped at this moment. The distance between the two was very close, and Tom could smell a cold aroma, which was the smell of Hermione mixed with the cold winter wind. He didn't know how long she had been standing outside. He looked at the delicate velvet and the faint flesh color under the round curves. He was sure that it would feel good when he touched it.

"Hermione..."

"Um?"

"I...I, I can give you a cold-proof spell on your socks, so that you won't get cold." Tom hesitated a little, and some of the words that came to his mouth changed subtly, and finally turned into this sentence .

"Well, thank you for your hard work."

Tom gently tapped the wand on Hermione's thigh. When the tip of the wand touched her, Hermione shuddered slightly, but quickly regained her composure and allowed Tom's wand to stroke up and down her leg.

The moment the runes were carved, Tom breathed a sigh of relief: This time he was always distracted and had difficulty concentrating on the carving.

Tom conjured up a ribbon, which was composed of hollow squares and inlaid with a white rose made of magic silver.

He wrapped the ribbon around Hermione's legs and made a leg ring, which formed a whole with the runes on the stockings. The moment the leg rings were connected end to end, Hermione felt a warm current flow from the leg rings, along her thighs, to her calves and toes, and at the same time to her crotch and spread to the other leg.

Hermione's legs were warm, as if the autumn sunshine was shining on them, and as if her lover's hands were caressing them.

She laughed.

"It's so warm," she shifted in her chair, "it's so pretty."

"Yeah, it's pretty," agreed Tom.

"Let's go back to London together."

"good."

As for how to go back, that would not be difficult for Tom.

Tom stood up from his chair and prepared to leave for London with Hermione. Tom took a step, Hermione followed, Tom took a step, Hermione followed, and so on. Tom paused and took Hermione's hand. Her fingertips were cold and a little moist.

Thin, thin, cold.

The two held hands tightly and stood on the rooftop of the astronomical tower together, feeling the strong wind blowing against their faces.

"In this weather, riding a broomstick is a kind of torture." Tom opened his mouth and was given a mouthful of cold wind.

"There's one of those enchanted brooms that can keep out the wind and rain!" Hermione shouted, lest her voice be blown away by the wind.

"But I still choose the phoenix." A golden flame rose up from Tom's body, and he turned into a beautiful golden-red bird. After making sure that Hermione had grasped his tail, Tom took off and flew to London. .

In cold weather, Floo Network and Phoenix are the best choices for long-distance travel. Fireworks and phoenix fireworks can effectively drive away the chill and isolate the cold wind. But in theory, the only fireplace in Hogwarts connected to the Floo network is in the headmaster's office...

Although Tom felt that he would not encounter Dumbledore if he went to the principal's office now, he still did not go there to use the Floo Network - Tom's hunch was correct. The principal's office was now empty and no one knew about Dumbledore. Where did it go.

The phoenix flew to a deserted alley outside London. After landing smoothly, Tom returned to his original form, holding Hermione's hand, and started walking down the street.

Walk around the streets of London with Hermione until all the lights go out.

Hermione held Tom's sleeves and Tom put his hands in his trouser pockets and walked to the end of the road.

…

The closer he got to Hermione's house, the more uneasy Tom became.

Hermione saw Tom's emotions and held Tom's hand a little harder. Feeling the usual strength in her hand, Tom looked at Hermione.

"Don't worry, they have been looking forward to your return. Mother said that this will always be your home," Hermione said with a smile. "Dad also said that instead of inviting children from other wizard families, it would be better to invite Tom, everyone has similar habits and is familiar with them - he is not used to dealing with wizards."

Hearing Hermione say this, Tom felt a little relieved.

Tom returned to the familiar street, the familiar fence, and the familiar house. But something strange was that on a night when all the lights were on, the lights in Hermione's house were turned off.

The note left at the door answered Tom's doubts.

"Going to the doctor?" Hermione was stunned, "Today is Christmas Eve, why would my parents go to the emergency room?"

Hermione's parents are dentists and have their own clinic. Logically speaking, working overtime on Christmas Day is not their responsibility. But unfortunately, one of their old friends had a tooth problem today - a toothache is not a disease, it hurts terribly. The old friend couldn't stand the pain, so he had no choice but to ask the Grangers to see his teeth.

Mr. Granger and his friend had known each other since childhood and had a close relationship. Naturally, he would not refuse if his friend had something to do, so he went with his wife and left this note and a sumptuous Christmas dinner for Hermione before leaving.
