POV
It's wintertime in Hogwarts. When Dumbledore announces the Black Lake is so thickly frozen that it's safe to walk on, it can only mean one thing: it's time to go ice-skating! You beg your boyfriend to go with you and the next day, you find yourselves skating together...

✦ you look at him surprised
✦ "dray... how come you're doing this so well?" you call after him
✦ he grins "we have our own lake behind the manor. i used to skate there every winter when i was little"
✦ you roll your eyes "obviously. sometimes i forget you're rich"
✦ he just laughs & swirls you around
Mattheo Riddle
✦ mattheo can NOT skate at all
✦ he would hold onto you for dear life
✦ you chuckle "how are doing back there, matty?"
✦ his legs are SHAKING
✦ "perfectly fine" he murmurs through gritted teeth
✦ you grin but you also know he never did 'normal' things as a kid so you try to have all the patience in the world with him
✦ you teach him and are impressed at how quickly he gets the hang of it
Theodore Nott
✦ theo is a PRO
✦ this man is skating so fast you can barely keep up with him
✦ "how- how do you skate so well?" you ask him breathlessly
✦ he grins "i used to play ice hockey with the muggle boys in my old neighborhood. i'm competitive"
✦ you raise an eyebrow "oh i know"
✦ he just laughs & starts softly pushing you from behind until you scream at how fast you're going
Lorenzo Berkshire

✦ "i'm fine!" he shouts back
✦ he has the time of his life goofing around & playing with you
✦ this man does NOT care if he looks silly, he's here for the fun
Pansy Parkinson

✦ "it's such a muggle thing to do" she scoffs

✦ "FINE"
✦ after putting on your skates, you can't believe your eyes...
✦ pansy is moving over the ice like an actual figure skater - twirls, swirls, EVERYTHING
