Who: Ellie and Open! What: Snow Ball Fight! Where: Outside When: Backdated to Monday Rating: PG? PG-13? Status: Incomplete
This was one of the reasons that Ellie adored Hogwarts so much. It wasn't unusual for a snow ball fight to break out at anytime. Especially with the first snow of the season. The cold weather, frozen days, and cloudy skies only added to the anticipation of the first winter storm of the school year. Ellie had really gotten tired of waiting inside the school, wishing for the snow to fall. It had taken far too long for her liking, but at last, right when the first snowflake fell to the ground, Ellie's excitement grew.
Just because she was a seventh year didn't mean she had to act like an adult quite yet.
If Ellie had a weakness, it was the fun that one could have during the winter months. Not to mention the hot coffee afterwords to warm up.
After classes ended, Ellie was already putting her heavy pea coat, Hufflepuff Scarf, and thick gloves on before she was out the door. Ellie wasn't an idiot and knew better than to go off and freeze to death while outside. After sizing up the few students already out in the snow, she bent down and made the first snow ball of the day and tossed it at an unexpected firstie. A few more near them helped start a small fight , but nothing like she was waiting for. It was practice of course. Now, if only the rest of the school would join in in the antics. It would really make the already stressful year a little less terrible.
