"Oh, you noticed that. Yeah, well, that's when it's hard to hide it." she blushed a little when he smiled. She watched him check to see if anyone was coming. When he was sure of it, he took off his cloak. Then he proceeded to remove his tie and vest. Whoa! she thought this is a little too fast. Then she saw what he was talking about when she faced him. Her hand found her open mouth as she gasped. "Oh dear." She was not sure how she could help him. She wanted to so bad, but was not sure. "I won't tell anyone, but you must promise you'll get some help. This could be bad and I wouldn't want something bad to happen to you." She was really concerned for him.
"Are you sure you want to tell them?" She already knew how they felt about muggleborns, she wasn't sure how they'd take this. She held her breath as he leaned in to kiss her. Totally unexpected, she thought, yet nice. She smiled back at him. Secrets were what they had to share. He grabbed her hand and seemed to be trying to get her away from something. As he turned to leave for his common room, Jaina still had his hand. She didn't know his name and she hadn't told him hers. "It's Jaina, in case you were wondering. Jaina Maloney." She leaned in and gave him a huge hug. "It'll be ok. I promise you. We'll figure this out." The strength of the promise could be heard in the words she spoke.
