He was graduating at the end of the term after all and the more that thought had came up in his thoughts, the more it made him sad since it meant that he didn't get to see Stella whenever he wanted to. Then again, he had been curious about what was in store for him after graduating with travelling for a year at least. "It's actually really nice, I mean obviously it's different if you haven't experienced it before. But pretty much every Christmas, I'll be out on the beach. Unless it's raining, then it isn't much fun." It wasn't that he didn't like the rain, it was more like the whole cold that came with it; but other plus to the rain was that it had made some awesome waves. As soon as she offered to help him skate, he smiled softly; it truly was a fair deal after all since he had been giving swing dancing lessons later on which were going to be ridiculously fun. "Makes sense, I'm looking forward to this now since it should be interesting. Well that isn't exactly the word I was looking for but it works all the same." He already knew that there was going to be a lot of falling and laughing but that wasn't a bad thing, no it was going to make a really good memory that he'd carry with him throughout the next year.

"Yeah they could have called it a ball, but I think that they're trying to make it more of a mystery for us. Either way, it's going to be a good time and I'm happy that I'm still at the school for it." If it had been next term, well there wasn't much that he could have done about it. But the whole fact that if it was actually a ball, it meant that he got the chance to dance with her again which was awesome; hopefully they weren't going to be using the waltz lessons from the previous term since he hadn't been too fussed with dancing something that was just so formal. When she asked about OWLs again, he just thought about it for a second before just deciding to speak. "That was it, but I knew that you were going to do well anyway and I was right. I really do appreciate the help with my NEWTs, I mean.. I think I'll do okay but there's nothing wrong with having help with studying." Especially if it meant that they could spend time together since between everything else going on at the school, they didn't exactly have much time to hang out. "You won't have to drop Runes, I'll make sure that you can get enough of a good grade on the exam this term to be able to take it for your NEWT year." He was determined to help her out, even if it had to happen while he was working on homework; that wasn't going to be a problem.
