The kitchen had looked like a flour-bomb had exploded in the middle of the room. There had been white powder everywhere, including on the two boys, who had been covered head-to-toe. The air had been thick and hard to breathe, which had been annoying because the both of them couldn’t stop laughing. It was just a surreal scene. Too bad they hadn’t even been able to finish the cookies. No, they had spent most of the night cleaning up, first the kitchen itself and later on themselves.

The rumours of white footsteps in the hallways had kept the other students busy for weeks after. Each time they’d had thrown each other a meaningful look. Good times. ”Fine, I’ll add you to the list”, He replied with a smirk. ”But we have to have cookies though. Very important on a Christmas dinner”, He then added. He could go out and buy them though. That lowered the risk on a flour-catastrophe significantly.

It was nothing less than a miracle that no one had ever found their out about their disasterous kitchen adventure. They had managed to get the kitchen clean before anyone could notice but the white footprints in the hallways were a different story. All those rumors they caused because of that. ”Fine, I’ll add you to the list”, Fred answered with a smirk on his face. Good, because he didn't want to experience that weird flour shower again. ”But we have to have cookies though. Very important on a Christmas dinner”, the young man added. Lev have a slight nod. Christmas hadn't really been a thing for him as it was for the others. "Then let's buy them at a bakery. Safety first this time," Lev grinned. If they went to buy them beforehand they could probably eat some warm cookies and they could both pick the flavor so they had something they both liked. "Is it going to be 'fancy dinner' or 'let's try to make something ourselves'?" Lev continued to ask.

It was both funny and sad how he had forgotten about that story, until Lev had brought it up again. Time went by so fast, and he felt like his memory from ten years ago was seriously lacking. He wanted to remember them, all of it, so badly though. His life now looked very differently. Not that he would actually want to go back in time to relive them, but he couldn’t help to feel a little nostalgic now he recalled that adventure.

If it was up to Lev though, there would be no adventure 2.0. ”Safety first indeed, especially because now it would be my kitchen”, He chuckled. He knew Humphry wouldn’t particularly like to be covered in flour either. ”Good question. How about we go out for dinner on Christmas eve, roam around London for a bit before, and then we just chill and hang out on Christmas day? I wouldn’t mind fixing some brunch”, He suggested. Then they could sleep in as long as they wanted and have some quality time in his house as well. Best of both worlds, if you’d ask him.

”Safety first indeed, especially because now it would be my kitchen”, Fred chuckled and Lev quickly joined in. He didn't doubt that Fred would prefer their kitchen not covered in flour, especially since they knew how much of a mess it was to clean it all up. Lev too, would rather not have to clean that much ever again. ”Good question. How about we go out for dinner on Christmas eve, roam around London for a bit before, and then we just chill and hang out on Christmas day? I wouldn’t mind fixing some brunch”, Fred responded and suggested. It seemed like a great idea but Lev just had to add one thing. "I can't have you do all the work though, help me come up with something I can do?" Lev chuckled. He couldn't let Fred do all the work but he didn't know what he could do either.

No way he would spend his entire Christmas day cleaning up a kitchen that was covered in flour. Maybe he should give up on his aspirations to become a master-cookie-baker and leave it to the professionals. It was safer for everyone involved anyway. He could already picture the expression he would get from Humprhy if his precious coat got dirty. His gaze would be enough to kill him, he was sure of it. The plan he had come up with, was a good one too, if he was allowed to say so.

Lev wanted to do stuff as well though. ”You can keep me company”, He said with a smile. ”Honestly Lev, it’s enough if you just show up, you know”, He continued. Then he got another idea though. He knew putting up a Christmas tree would be risky with a cat roaming around. ”Or, you know what, I can wait with putting up the tree. Humphry tends to want to destroy it each year anyway. Then we can do that together?” He suggested enthusiastically. It would lower the risk of getting it ripped down, and Lev could let go of all his creative antics.

”You can keep me company”, Fred responded with a smile. Of course he was planning to do that as well but that couldn't be all he did. That way he felt like some sort of paracite. ”Honestly Lev, it’s enough if you just show up, you know”, Fred added. It made him glad that the auror really appreciated his presence but that wouldn't chance his stance on doing at least something. He didn't want to be a decoration, he wanted to help. ”Or, you know what, I can wait with putting up the tree. Humphry tends to want to destroy it each year anyway. Then we can do that together?” Fred proposed in a way that sounded like he really wanted to do that. It also sparked Lev's enthusiasm. "That would be great," he responded with a wide smile and an almost childlike sparkle in his eyes. He had never put up a Christmas tree before so it sure would be a special memory. "I want to put the top on," Lev grinned. Finally something his height was actually usefull for. It usually worked against him so that would make for a nice change.

There was nothing more he could ask from his dear friend than just his company. It would be a great advantage to have him around, especially when he wouldn’t have work this time to keep his mind occupied. The longer he could stay, the better. In return, he wanted to make it memorable for him as well. London was a big city after all. There would be tons of stuff to do to celebrate the holidays. That, and a fancy dinner, he was already hyped. Lev seemed more enthusiastic when he found a little task for him though. Putting up the christmas tree together, that would be fun, right? And it would give Humphry less time to destroy it before the big day arrived.

”Great! Then it is a deal”, Frederick grinned. He nodded heavily when the man suggested he’d put the top on. ”Unless I find a ridiculously tall tree, that would be the perfect job for you”, He retorted amused. A gigantic tree wouldn’t fit his living room though, so it was safe. ”Do they still put those enormous trees in the great hall here?” He then asked. Now the man who used to carry them inside was not available, he wondered who was given the duty to get those on their right spot.

Decorating a tree was something he had never done before but it had always seemed fun to him. The people who did nearly always enjoyed theirselves. ”Great! Then it is a deal”, Fred grinned in agreement. A smile appeared on Lev's face because of Fred's heavy nodding as response to him saying that he wanted to put the top on. ”Unless I find a ridiculously tall tree, that would be the perfect job for you”, the young man responed in an amused manner. A grin appeared on the professor's face. "Try me," Lev grinned. When you had magic on your side there were many ways to put a top on a way too high tree. He could just float it sidewards or fly to the top himself. ”Do they still put those enormous trees in the great hall here?” Fred continued to ask him. Lev gave a slight nod before he explained. "Yeah they still do, every year. And I have to say that I'll never get used to it," Lev grinned before Vasyl purred loudly in order to get their attention. After looking at the Russian blue for a few seconds Lev turned his face back to Fed. "Would Humphry mind if I take Vasyl with me?"
