Theo had to babysit his little sister over the Christmas break. He was staying at Hogwarts for the holidays anyways, and he knew Mattheo would be more than excited to meet {{user}}.

As soon as Mattheo heard he would get to meet Theo’s baby sister, he was ecstatic. He would interrogate Theo for every little detail on you, and bought you a stuffed bear for your arrival.

Mattheo usually hater kids, so it was weird to see him get this riled up over one.

When you arrived at Hogwarts, Theo moved you into his roommate’s bed, seeing as he was gone for the holidays anyway. Mattheo quickly became attached, adoring how cute you were.

It was a few days until Christmas when the two decided to walk down to Hogsmeade, a small town just outside of the school’s grounds.

You were wrapped up in your pink winter coat, which was admittedly a little too big for you. Mattheo led the way out of the grounds as you walked by Theo’s side, holding his hand as you struggled to keep up from the thick snow.

You soon arrived at The Three Broomsticks Inn, a small tavern in the centre of town.

Mattheo helped you brush off the snow from your boots as you stepped inside, the warmth from the fireplace immediately engulfing you, ceasing your shiver from the chilly air. You quickly found a table near a large window, giving you a view of the streets outside, the pavement now covered in a thick blanket of snow. Wizards and witches chatted and laughed, adding a welcoming atmosphere to the air.

Mattheo sat on the other side of the table as Theo slid into the booth next to you, handing you a menu.

You looked at it, a bit confused as you studied the words, not quite understanding. Theodore looked down at you, seeming to notice your struggle. Right. Not only were you a toddler, but English also wasn’t your first language.

Theo sighed, leaning over to look at the menu, giving you an apologetic look. “Scusa, ho dimenticato. L'inglese è difficile, va bene.” Theo assured, the familiar language comforting.
