When cotton saw the first snowflake on the window of her dorm, she prayed for more,
when pumpkin pie saw the first snowflake, she wished for less.
When cotton woke up and looked out of the window, she squealed with excitement. The white snow had covered everywhere, she looked outside of the window for a few minutes, it was the first time that she had seen snow since her father had sent her to the cookie Kingdom for her education and it was at the weekend, how lucky she was.
Pumpkin pie woke up as she heard the squeal from her roommate, at first she smiled because she liked her crush being happy but then she remembered to get out of bed to look into the window, this was the last thing she wanted.
Cotton turned around to look at pumpkin pie and smiled "it's a snowy day this reminds me of my homeland" she reminisce, just for a few seconds and then takes a hold of pumpkin pie's hands "let's go there's a lot of things to do"
Pumpkin pie was horrified at their excitement, she never liked snow, she actually hated winter, she always wanted to be autumn forever but she couldn't help but blush when cotton took a hold of her hand.
Cotton also blush realizing what she had done in her excitement, after letting go of her crush's hand she went to her wardrobe to get ready for the snow, she asked 'so what's your favorite winter activity??" while searching for something on her wardrobe.
Pumpkin pie looked at pom pom and stood there not being able to answer, her usual confidence aloofness disappears "I don't like …winter I don't enjoy the Cold I prefer autumn" she said.
Cotton stop searching and stood there "oh.., that's okay!" she said in a disappointed tone picking up a box from her wardrobe, she really want to share the winter joy with pumpkin, she then looked at the box.
Pumpkin pie stood there saying nothing for a few more seconds, she could understand the disappointment from Cotton's voice, she looked at pom pom for reassurance, pom pom gave her a look that she understood.
Cotton started to get ready to go out into the snow, it's okay if her crush doesn't want to think that she wants to hang out with her, she held the lantern then she opened the dorm door to get out.
"Wait!" pumpkin pie said as cotton looked at her, she was wearing her usual clothing with a scarf "let me come with you"
"Really?" Cotton said, "you know you don't have to.." "no! I want to because you're my friend after all" they both blushed a little bit and they both whispered and maybe more.
Cotton then smiled "thank you so much!" "no problem!" cotton reached their hands for pumpkin pie to take and she took it without hesitation as they both started running down the Halls of the dorm.
As they got out cotton had a big smile on her face, "it smells like my homeland.." as her sheep also came towards her, she patted her sheep for a little while.
pumpkin pie anxiously walked out into the snow shivering a little bit, she will get used to it anyway, she hugged pom pom tight.
"I have to do something before playing in the snow, would you like to accompany me?" "I would love to" pumpkin pie said.
They walk together to the cookiestmas tree, pumpkin pie hugged herself a little bit to keep herself warm as she slowly got used to the cold, when they finally arrived cotton opened up a box and hanged a lantern.
Pumpkin pie smiled "Is this a part of your cultural cookiestmas celebrations?" "No not exactly, it's more for a friend." she looked down.
Pumpkin pie pointed at a fresh patch of snow, "hey do you want to play there?" she said, cotton kind of cheered up "yeah", she handed the box to her sheep "take care of it okay?"
pumpkin pie put pom pom next to the sheep "sorry pom pom but I'm going to play without you for some time"
As cotton picked up some snow and threw it on top of her head with a happiest expression on her face, at that point all of Cotton's worries melted away and she picked up another snowball and threw it at pumpkin.
As she got hit, cotton made another snowball and threw it at pumpkin pie, hitting her square on the face.
They both picked up more snow and started to chase each other, pom pom looked at them while slowly petting the sheep, seasons come and pass quickly, they're happy that pumpkin pie found another friend.
