Just as he mustered the courage to talk to the Fat Lady herself a couple of floating pink butterflies entered his vision. Aww man was he?... no he was pretty sure he wasnt, he hasnt touched that thing for over a year. He followed the butterfly trail to where it was coming from, and lo and behold--

"Lexi!" Salander squeaked. Errr yeah them nerves, unpredictable arent they? He cleared his throat and smiled sheepishly. "Uh... I got your letter and uhm...." he dallied, not really knowing what to say afterwards. Instead he thrust the gift box to her "Uhm, this is for you."

Text Cut: the Gift
Lexi stood against the wall, wand held aloft conjuring still more butterflies. She giggled uncontrollably as they floated around her head and one alighted on her nose.

Hearing Salander's voice she smiled brightly and conjured a MANLY green butterfly for him as she turned to see him. "Hey, Salander... You did? It is?" she asked dully as she moved forward, her butterflies trailing along with her. "Salander... you got me a gift? You shouldn't have," she said as she reached for it.

Biting her lip for a moment she looked up at him and blinked her big brown eyes. "I wish I would have gotten you a gift now..." she said as she tore the paper off greedily. As she opened it her eyes got a bit misty. Taking the beautiful necklace from the box she turned it over in her hand and smiled softly. "Oh Salander... it's beautiful!" she said as she threw herself at him. She threw her arms around his neck and hugged him tightly as she caught herself crying slightly. "Does this mean you aren't mad at me anymore? I am so sorry... I never meant to hurt you... I was such an idiot..." she said in rapid fire.
