Tom was a little surprised when he saw Hermione appearing 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 using other people's faces.
"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 the ground with her toes, and tapped the ground lightly.
"A bit surprising, 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 withstand the cold wind in the Scottish Highlands. Although "fresh milk should be kept warm and ham kept cold," the weather was 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 seemed 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.
Looking 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 attach a cold-proof spell to your socks so that you won't get cold." Tom hesitated, 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 found it difficult to concentrate.
Tom conjured up a ribbon, which was made up of hollow squares and inlaid with a white rose made of magic silver.
He wrapped the ribbon around Hermione's leg 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 ring.
, flows along the thigh, to the calf and toes, and at the same time to the crotch, spreading to the other leg.
Hermione's legs were warm, as if the autumn sunshine was shining on them, or as if her lover's hands were caressing them.
She laughed.
"It's so warm," she changed her position on the chair, "it's so beautiful."
"Yeah, it's really nice." Tom agreed.
"Let's go back to London together."
"good."
As for how to get back, that's not a problem for Tom.
Tom stood up from the chair and prepared to go to London with Hermione. Tom took a step, Hermione followed the step, Tom took a step, Hermione followed the step, and they followed suit. Tom paused and hooked Hermione
Her fingertips were cold and a little moist.
Slender, thin, cold.
The two held hands and stood together on the rooftop of the astronomical tower, 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 are those enchanted brooms that can keep out the wind and rain!" Hermione shouted loudly to prevent her voice from being 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. However, in theory, Hogwarts is the only one connecting to Floo.
Net's fireplace is in the principal'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 in the outskirts of 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 anxious 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 wizarding 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 thousands of houses were lit up, the lights at Hermione's house were turned off.
The note left at the door answered Tom's doubts.
"Visiting a 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 is not their fault. But unfortunately, one of their old friends had a tooth problem today -
The pain is not a disease, the pain is really terrible. My old friend couldn't stand the pain, so he had no choice but to ask Mr. and Mrs. Granger to come over for a dental appointment.
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 Halloween dinner for Hermione before leaving.
