Molly had always loved the snow ever since she was little. So when she woke up that Saturday morning to a snow covered Hogwarts she decided to go for a walk. She had bundled up in her favorite peacoat, scarf, hat and gloves and set out for the lake. The grounds were covered, but she used her wand to clear herself a path as she made her way. She knew that she wasn't supposed to use her wand outside of the classroom but that had never stopped her before.
Most people were looking forward to going home for the Christmas break but Molly wasn't really one of them. She loved her parents but viewed the holiday as a time to get some extra studying in. She knew her mother wouldn't let her hear the end of it though if she stayed. She looked out over the frozen lake, tempted to step out but unsure if it was safe enough. Molly suddenly had the feeling that someone was watching her.

[Molly] [Outfit][time unknown] Cricket wasn't a huge fan of the snow. He was more of a summer on the beach type. But he did enjoy seeing others act stupidly as they ran through the snow like it was a brand new thing. He headed out and stuffed his hand into his coat pockets, he could see his breath. he hated being able to see his breath. When he was a kid his brothers use to pretend they were smoking cigars, like the ones their dad smoked that smelled like sweet tabacco, or they would pretend they were dragons. Games they wouldn't have let Cricket play even if he had wanted to. He was always smarter than his brothers, which meant he was always more practical.
He headed out and smirked when he saw the tell-tale red hair of a Weasley. Molly Weasley he quickly detirmined. He headed over to her, looking her up and down quickly. "Molly Weasley." He had a thing for pretty women and recently the idea of red hair intrigued him. He hadn't had a red head as far as he could remember. He was hoping he could possibly change that. though he did know that the Weasleys were tight knit and if he made a misstep he would have eighty four Weasleys on his arse before he could come up with a lie to make it all better.

Molly turned around to see one of the hottest guys at the school staring at her. "Cricket Vander Wende." she said with a smirk. "What are you doing out in this weather?" she asked him curiously. She knew that Cricket had a bit of a reputation about him but he was really hot and just had something about him that made him seem enticing.
Molly felt a snowflake land on her hand, and looked up to see that it had started to snow again. She didn't know to much about Cricket other then that he was a Ravenclaw, and member of the infamous Vander Wende family. She knew that her family had quite the reputation though for itself. She had always strived to become more then just another Weasley, and wondered if Cricket felt the same way about his family.

[Molly] [Outfit][time unknown] Cricket hated his name. Not the Vander Wende part, but he hated the name Cricket. His mom had a best friend named James Cricket that she'd wanted to honor, because he died right before she'd given birth to her third son. Instead of naming his james, they went for Cricket, he was told that it was because james was such a boring Name. Cricket was something that would be remembered. Yeah, he didnt' appriciate it. He pulled himself from his thoughts and turned his attention to the pretty ginger in front of him.
"Wandering through the snow, hoping to find a beautiful girl." He said in an overly charming voice. He gauged the women he talked to pretty quickly. Someone like Molly wasn't taken in by charm, He knew that it would take more work than that. "And it was totally worth nearly freezing my arse off." he smirked, Then felt the snowflakes. he resisted the urge to turn and run back in the school.

Molly raised her eyebrows at his cheesy remark. She liked to be flirted with but certainly needed more then that to be impressed. "Well I'm glad that I'm worth braving the cold for." she said with a small smile. "So now that you found me..." she added with a smirk.
Molly adjusted her scarf, wrapping it tighter around her neck. She was cold, but she didn't mind the cold so much. She certainly preferred it to the heat. "I could think of a few things to do on a day like this." she said. She enjoyed flirting, and knew that a boy like Cricket would be fun to flirt with.

[Molly] [Outfit][time unknown] He shrugged when he realized the satirical nature of his 'charming words' had been lost. Oh well. "Now that I've found you I either have to convince you to go inside, or continue to brave the cold." He said. He wasn't a fan of the cold, nope, not even now. As soon as they were free to leave for Christmas break he was going somewhere warm, maybe the Caribbean. He hadn't decided yet, but he was sure his parents would agree to it, just because they hated the cold as much as he did.
Cricket chuckled when she said she had a few ideas for things that could be done. "Yeah? Like what?" He asked her. He hunched down into his coat as the wind blew, relaxing when it stopped. He could already feel the anger of a thousand Weasleys They did seem the type to not want to let one of their little princesses talk to guys, especially a guy like him.

Molly smiled at Cricket. "Well maybe you can convince me." she said. It was starting to snow a bit heavier. She sort of liked the idea of going inside with Cricket. She wondered what her family would think if they saw her with a Vander Wende. She knew her father would certainly be upset, and imagined most of her uncles would as well.
"Sitting in front of the fire with a good book." she said with a smirk. "Though I could go for a nice cup of hot chocolate." she said thoughtfully. "There are maybe a few other things that could be fun to do." she added thoufhgtfully.

[Molly] [Outfit][time unknown] He shook his head. "Naw, You'll have all break to sit in front of a fire reading. You should use school time for socializing." He said. There weren't a lot of options for two people from different houses when it came to places to hang out privately. He had found the room of requirement though. "I think it'd be much better to sit in front of a fire with another person." He said. "Getting warm." He smirked and looked back at the caslte. "I actually know of the perfect place to make that happen, if you were interested." He added.
And the best part was, no one would be able to walk in on them. No prefects or heads to barge in on them. He wasn't going to try anything beyond kissing, because he knew if he pushed it to far, she'd run off. She was raised by a proper family who taught her self respect, at least that's how it looked. He would jus have to wait and see. Not like most pureblood girls, they were raised to show a mask of ego, but behind closed doors they would do anything to please a guy, daddy issues could do that to a girl, and pure blood fathers were notorious for preferring their sons.

Molly smirked as she wondered what he implied by socializing. "Well I guess that's true." she said. "Being with other people is certainly a more interesting way to spend ones time." she added with a smile. Molly liked the sound of being in front of the fire with Cricket.
"Oh really." she said. "Well that sounds like fun." she said. "Where is this perfect place?" she asked curiously. She knew that they couldn't use either of there common rooms. There weren't many places with fireplaces where ppeople from different houses could go together.

[Molly] [Outfit][time unknown] "Come with me and I'll show you." He offered her his arm before walking back towards the castle. 'A few years ago, Professor Longbottom spoke of a room, that only appeared when it was needed and the inside could be anything the person wanted. One could request a bathroom and one would appear. A couple could request a romantic get away and one would appear, It just had to be imagined up. Longbottom refused to say where the room was, but I started looking." He admitted. "I would finish my homework then start searching the castle. It took me four months but I stumbled upon it by accident." He didn't know if she knew about the room or not. Longbottom said that Molly's uncle Harry had made use of the room on a regular basis.
"It's call the room of requirment." He walked up to the tapestry and past it. Closing his eyes he pictured a room, with a fireplace, a nice soft rug for them to sit on, and hot chocolate of course. the door appeared and he reached out, turning the knob and walking in with her. It was what he pictured, the fire already roaring away in the fireplace. "Cozy enough?" He asked her.

Molly slid her arm through Crickett's as they walked towards the castle. She had heard rumors of a room like he described. Mostly from her aunt Ginny and uncles. She had heard about it from when they rebelled against a former headmistress by learning spells from her uncle Harry. "I have heard about a room like that, but never seen it before." she admitted.
Molly watched as the door appeared out from thin air. "Wow." she said. She looked around the room, a smile forming on her lips. "It's perfect." she admitted. Molly took off her gloves, jacket and scarf looking for a place to put them. She turned around to see a coat rack that hadn't been there before. "That's a neat trick." she said.

[Molly] [Outfit][time unknown] "And you're the only person I've showed this to." He added, and that was the truth. He found it about two years ago and never told anyone about it. He would come here when he wanted to be alone. No one ever asked him where he had been for the past several hours either. Which went to show what good friends he had. He took off his own coat and gloves, hanging them up. He headed for the rug in front of the fire and it was thick and plush, incredibly soft. He sat down and smiled when he saw the hot chocolate. "And hot chocolate, just like you wanted." He nodded at the steaming mug in front of the fire place. His mug held coffee, Cricket had a bit of a caffine addiction.
He looked back at her, waiting for her to sit down. She was really pretty, but in an innocent sort of way. While the girls he usually spent time with would wear mini skirts even in the freezing weather, he liked that Molly dressed more reasonably. Though honestly, he did find the mini skirt to be an incredible thing. He smiled at her and took a drink of his coffee, letting the hot liquid scorch down his throat. "And it's isolated, so no on is going to come in and obnoxiously talk on and on about something you don't care about." He added. "Except me of course."

Molly felt flattered. She wasn't sure if he was telling the truth, but she really had no reason not to believe him. He seemed genuine. She walked towards Cricket and sat down next to him on the rug. It was a really nice room and the fire was nice and warm. She picked up the hot chocolate and took a sip. "Marshmallows, my favorite." she said. Molly didn't notice the chocolate that was on her lower lip.
Molly smiled at the idea of it being isolated. "That's good." she said. "We don't want anyone walking in on us." she said. Molly had had a few boyfriends already, though none had been more serious then the occasional snogging. She hadn't actually had sex yet though she had thought about it. She wanted to, but was really waiting to find the right guy. "I get that enough from all of my cousins." she admitted. "This is nice." she added.

[Molly] [Outfit][time unknown] He nodded when she said marshmallows were her favorite. "They're very good." He glanced at the cup to see if they were the disgusting processed onces from a grocery or if they were proper homemade ones. The latter, good. He nodded and took another drink of his coffee. "You have Some chocolate..." He reached out and carefully brushed it away with his thumb. "There you go." He said with a smirk.
He chuckled. "Well your cousins won't be messing anything up here." He said. "walking in or talking." He said, taking another drink. He put the mug down and turned his full attention to her. "Which is great news for both of us." He said. leaning alittle closer to her. He smirked, his eyes flicking down to take in her body before moving back up to her eyes. "I don't really like being hexed by protective relatives."

Molly's skin tingled where Cricket had touched her. She felt a warmth inside of her and knew that it wasn't from the fire. "Thanks." she said with a smile. Molly knew what Cricket intended and was certainly up for a little snogging. She knew she'd stop him if he tried anything more.
"Good." she said. "We don't need them coming in and spoiling anything." she added. She smirked at the idea of her cousins hexing Cricket. She knew very well that if they saw him with her that they'd have to be restrained to keep from going after him. "No that wouldn't be anyone's idea of fun." she said. Molly noticed him looking at her and smiled. She had dressed warm, but knew that her curves still showed. She felt the anticipation mount as he leaned close in to her. She leaned closer to him, waiting to see if he'd make the next move.
