"Come on, Torin!"

Reese dashed down the streets of Hogsmeade, hoping that her buddy was right behind her. She skipped all the way down to Honeydukes until she stopped, but right when she stopped, her feet slid on the ice beneath her. Eeep! Her body slid foward, but she clinged onto the door handle of Honeydukes, which stopped her from completely falling face down onto the snow. "That was a close one," she whispered to herself.

She stood up straight, then opened the door to Honeydukes and stepped inside. The first thing her cold body felt was the warmth inside the room. Oh, the WARMTH! Yes, she loved the snow, but she didn't like staying out in the coldness for a long time. And, do you KNOW how long it takes to walk from Hogwarts down here? It takes a while. Taking her hat off, she stuffed it inside her coat pocket, then she waited for Torin's slow arrival to the store. Geez, that Hufflepuff was slow. Did he fall or something in the snow on the way up here?
