💫 Winter Fling (Part 5) 💫
"Five... This isn't the Magic Kingdom Park!" (y/n) gasps loudly when she looks up at the giant branded banner for the park they are visiting.
Five chuckles softly seeing his roommate look absolutely gobsmacked while he held her hand and led them to where they needed to scan their tickets. "I know. It's Universal."
"I can fucking see that! What did you do!? How much were the tickets!?" she hisses and he just shrugs, enjoying how frustrated she was.
"You know, I don't remember."
"Five-"
"-relax darling. At least now you can buy whatever you want. Especially from Hogsmeade."
"Hogsmeade... You mean..."
"Yes (y/n), did you forget-"
"-THE HARRY POTTER AREA IS HERE!" the brunette watches with amusement as his roommate runs around him in excitement about seeing the castle and getting her own wand and robes. "Is this why you asked me to wear my green outfit!?"
"Yes, I know you're obsessed with that blonde character-"
"-you know it!"
"Don't forget that Diagon Alley is at the other park. This one is only Islands of Adventure."
"Please don't tell me you didn't get tickets for Universal Studios too!? Five!"
"I didn't."
He did.
He just loved seeing her so happy like this.
"Let's go, let's go, let's go!" she exclaimed, grabbing his hand and running through the city walk-while taking videos of the place-to get to the front where staff had to scan their tickets. They went through with a breeze and his roommate let out the biggest gasp when she saw the Avengers area first. There was a Fantastic Four cafe, rides for Hulk and Doctor Doom and even one for Spider-Man.
The couple went through all the shops, the experiences, shows and rides-well the ones (y/n) could go one since she was absolutely terrified of park rides-through the Marvel area before going through King Kong and Jurassic.
"Get ready. You'll see the Hogwarts castle really soon." Five says and (y/n) looks at him with wide eyes, both of them leaving Jurassic and walking across the bridge with trees and she gasps when she sees the snow-covered roofs of the shops at Hogsmeade. "Look to your left." The brunette smiles widely when his roommate turns around and stops, looking straight up at the castle that loomed beautifully on top of a mountain with the songs playing in the background.
"I'm here..." she says, her voice cracking and she tears up. "I'm actually here..." she slowly walks off, not realising her roommate was trailing behind her a bit to let her have this moment, recording everything for her while she walked beneath the sign for Hogsmeade and into the streets. "Oh my god..." she felt like she was there, looking at these stores as she walked down the streets before seeing a specific shop that she desperately needed to visit. "Olivanders is here!" she grabs her roommate's arm and drags him into the line and he chuckles.
"It's a group of 20 that goes in and one person gets picked out to get a wand." Five explains since he had been here before.
"Wait really!? Someone gets chosen like Harry!?" He loved how big (y/n)'s eyes were, just full of wonder and excitement and she started counting on her feet with giddy. Especially when they all were called to go in. "Oh my god, Oh my god!" Ollivander was there and the door closed for the show to begin. She was recording everything, from the moment he chose a young girl from the crowd to finding her the perfect wand and it lit up exactly how Harry's wand did with him. "I can get a wand!" she gasps as she walks through the door with the crowd after the show is done, seeing the vast amount of variety and her roommate laughs softly when she beelines straight for the Draco Malfoy wand. "Let's go, I got all I need." she grins, holding the box.
"Are you sure?" the brunette muses, nodding to another part of the store that had apparel and he smiles seeing his roommate's eyes go wide when she spots the robes.
"They have the robes..." she mumbles as she walks over straight to them, gently touching the fabric. It looked exactly like the ones in the movies.
"Try one on." Five coaxes and (y/n) takes out the size for her, admiring the green colour before she puts it on. She was so gentle with the robes, walking towards the mirror in the shop and standing in front of it. The theme song of Leaving Hogwarts started playing and she tears up as she looks at herself. There was so much happiness, so much joy it was just impossible to describe.
"I'm here..." she bursts out in tears, touching the sigil on the robe and she just cried. The brunette rushes over to dry her tears but they were never ending.
"I'm guessing we're buying it." he smiles, trying to lift her spirits and she sobs.
"Of course I am! Oh god, I don't want to ruin it!" she couldn't stop crying and her roommate pulled her into a hug.
21 years of her life and she had never been able to experience any of this before and she realised that she wouldn't be able to once she goes back home. She missed out on so much in her childhood, missed out on being able to see this place when she was younger but now it felt like the child in her was healing.
"I need to get a tie now!" she hiccups, drying her tears once she calms down and goes to get a Hufflepuff tie.
"Wait, that's a different colour?" Five was confused.
"I can get the normal uniform and wear the tie without the robe so I can be in Hufflepuff, and I can also wear the robe without the tie and pretend to be in Slytherin. Two houses without spending so much."
"That's actually brilliant!"
The couple buy their stuff-besides Five who already had a wand and a Slytherin robe that he bought on a previous visit to universal-and goes out wearing the entire getup to perform spells around the streets of Hogsmeade. (Y/n) was entirely new at this and was struggling to perform the spells, feeling dejected that even the younger kids were able to get it and not her but her roommate helped her.
"I know it breaks the magic but you need to point the wand at the sensor." He stands behind her and gently holds her hand as she holds her wand, lifting it up and waving it for the spell and a flower blooms in the window.
"Oh my god!" He grins at how excited she is, kissing her cheek and stepping back to let her try again and she does it on her own. "I did it!" She jumped onto him to give him a hug and he squeezed her tight happily. "Let's go do the other ones!" They went around and did every spell, stopping to get frozen butter beer which blew the brunette's roommate's mind, declaring that it was so much better than the one back home. They relax in the shade for a bit before heading out to watch the shows for the Frog choir, the fight performance from the Durmstrang boys and the dance performance from the Beauxbatons girls.
"Let's go to the castle." Five suggests, taking hold of (y/n)'s hand as she smiles up at him and lets him take her to the castle.
She looks up in awe and they both just stop for a minute. "Can we go inside?"
"Yeah. It's a ride but you can walk through the castle without going on the ride."
"For real!? Let's go!" The couple go through the gates and along the pathway up to the open doors of the castle. They walk in to pass statues of familiar characters and the Hogwarts house point counters, the door to Dumbledore's office and even outside to Sprout's greenhouse. The sorting hat was talking to people, and even Harry, Ron and Hermione were in the DADA class talking to them before walking through the Gryffindor common room. Sadly the walk had ended and the couple walked back outside. "Is the ride scary?"
"It's worse than the Avatar Flight of Passage." Five explains and (y/n) pales. She couldn't keep her eyes open for Flight of Passage, then there was no way she would be able to enjoy the Forbidden Journey ride.
"That's ok. I'm just glad we saw all of this."
"Wanna go around once more and get some butter beer before we leave?"
"Yeah, let's do that."
The couple go around once more, leaving Hogsmeade after drinking their soda butter beer. They walked slowly on the bridge and the brunette took pictures of his roommate as she looked up at the castle with so much longing. Maybe one day he could take her to the actual castle.
"Let's go." She smiled at him sadly as she held back her tears, holding his hand as he took them out to head to the other areas they hadn't visited yet. There was the Dr. Seuss land which was entirely on crack and he was glad to cheer up his roommate again when she was able to take pictures with The Grinch and the Cat in the Hat. They went around back to the Marvel area and went on the Spider-Man ride 4 more times together to cool off from the heat before leaving Universal for the last time and going out to explore City Walk.
"There's a really good Ice cream store called Coldstone we have to try." Five explains as he takes (y/n) to the store, explaining to her what they do as she looks at the different flavours. She got cheesecake and brownie pieces while he got cake batter and Kit Kat pieces.
"Oof, that is... they weren't kidding about the cheesecake. You can just taste cheese!" The brunette chuckles when his roommate makes a sour face at her ice cream.
"It's cheesecake. Does your cheesecake ice cream not taste the same?" He asks as he takes some of her ice cream.
"No! It tastes so much better! And our cheesecake does not taste like this either. You have to come to Australia and try Gelatissimo ice cream! They pack it in for a good price. I had this New York cheesecake ice cream with cheesecake pieces and oh my god, it was so good!"
"I'll keep that in mind to try your cheesecake." He muses, passing his cup to her. "Try the cake batter one." She tries it and he laughs when her face scrunches up.
"That just tastes like Play-Doh..." he freezes, realising she was right and pushes his cup away.
"You know what, you're right. This Coldstone is not great."
"Someone told me there's a branch near our village. We should try that one. Oh! There's also a strip of area that has all the American fast food places together so I definitely want to go and try them. Not all at once obviously."
"Obviously." Five chuckles. "I'll take you and we can go for a drive."
"Sounds good!"
The couple talk for a couple more hours as the night starts to set in, deciding to head back home but only after they take pictures at the Universal Ball.
The brunette leans down to kiss his roommate's cheek as the stranger takes pictures of them on his roommate's phone, smiling as she blushes when he holds her to his side. She looks up at him and he tilts her chin up to gently kiss her lips, feeling over the moon when he feels her smile against his lips before she pulls back.
"Thank you, for today..." she breathes out as she hugs him and he presses a kiss on top of her head, quietly thanking the person as they give his roommate's phone back to him.
"It was my pleasure (y/n). I'm glad you had fun."
The couple headed back out to the parking lot to head to the car, giggling together as they remembered the funny things that happened at the park. Like the animatronic pterodactyl scaring (y/n) and the staff managing to get the perfect picture of her screaming.
They get in the car and buckle up before Five drives out of the parking lot, the night a peaceful quiet with the radio playing a soft song from Taylor Swift's Folklore album. He looks over at his roommate as she looks out the open window, a soft smile on his face seeing the sweet smile on her face as she hummed with the music. He leans over to to gently place his hand on her knee, gaining her permission when she doesn't take his hand off and he rubs her thigh before just holding her.
She relaxed back against the car seat as she hung her arm out the window to feel the breeze, blushing as her roommate stroked her skin with his thumb while he drove them back home. She looks up at him to see him concentrated on the road, the lights making his eyes flash green as they sped past and she leans her head against his arm which makes him look at her in surprise.
The brunette's heart flips happily and shifts closer to her as much as possible to let her lay her head on his arm comfortably, turning his hand from her thigh to hold her hand before he entwined their fingers together and pulled their hands up to kiss the back of hers. He held their hands in his lap as they drove down the empty road and the quiet night.
