She knew that she was horrible at it, something she should probably apologize for, and she didn't like that she had made his eyes frown just now. It was seriously one of the last things she wanted to do.

Lingering on his every word, Kurumi almost asked him what it was he had been thinking she had meant. What else could have happened on the train ride to Hogwarts that would have merited an apology from her? Cocking her head to the side in confusion for a moment, Kurumi decided just not to say anything regarding his unfinished sentence. Merlin did she wish that the two of them were able to finish sentences with each other all the time. It was probably one of the most frustrating things about their, er, relationship. "I'm...I'm sorry for confusing you," she whispered. Well, the confusion regarding this isolated situation about what happened on the ride here. The other confusion, the bits that she was sort of unaware of save her own, she was sorry about that too.

But things wouldn't be confusing for too much longer.

Kurumi's smile brightened again. "Lewis...there is a difference between have to and want to," she said softly, her cheeks aglow again as she ran her fingers through her ebony hair and twirled the ends around her fingers. "Luck or not, you still did a great service to me..." You kept my mother with me. Her brown eyes met his green ones again, smiling innocently at him as she ceased playing with her hair. She opened her mouth to suggest she bake him something, but that instantly brought up memories that caused her to blush even more furiously, her eyes to lower slightly, and for her to bite her lip.

Her hand tightened its grip on his robes, as if not wanting to let him go - which was selfishly true. Her eyes never left his and hardly even blinked while her heart raced at the realization of what the future was bringing her came crashing down around her. Tomorrow....tomorrow was when everything was going to change. Only everything had already changed. Hearing him whisper to her, her eyes refocused and she nodded her head. "...yes..." she said with a startling confidence, even to herself. Her eyes momentarily flicked towards the Slytherin table where they instantly fell on Jonathan. Her heart raced and her breath caught in her chest again while she brought her gaze back to meet Lewis'.

"Lewis..." she whispered again, her grip loosening around his robes and lowering slightly, her hand brushing against his for just a moment, sending a jolt of electricity through her body. "Meet me in the Owlerly day after tomorrow?" Her pinky finger found his for a brief moment, wrapping around it to make a pinky promise with him. "Please?"


And now she was apologizing again? But at least she hadn't asked him what HE had thought she was talking about. That would have been very awkward seeing as he'd encouraged her to do it. If only he'd been right. Not that her thinking he was encouraging her to pull him to the ground more often was any less awkward. "N-not entirely your fault." Lewis muttered while his hands had gone up to the bridge of his nose again, pinching it absently to try and sort out his thoughts...and emotions too. What HAD he been thinking? Of course she hadn't been serious.

So she did want to repay him in some way. He had learned that she took things like that very serious, even if he told her that she didn't have to give him anything. Like with the cake. And the kitchen. The way she was still looking at him, a smile playing around her lips, made him bite his lip a little. So she expected him to tell her how to repay him? Before he could stop himself - maybe it was partly because he'd thought about the kitchen, and maybe it was partly because of the whole situation - he swallowed again and whispered, "W-well, you know what I want." He allowed his eyes to rest on hers for just a moment longer before averting his gaze some place else.

Of course this was a very vague statement but hopefully she would get what he really meant.

Lewis tried to calm himself down a little by taking a couple of deep breaths but while he might have looked more or less calm on the outside, his heart was beating out of control, making it very hard to think straight. Especially when he followed her gaze to the Slytherin table and hence confirming his suspicions as to who the 'he' was she was talking about. She was going to tell him. She was going to tell him about what had happened. Was that all she was going to tell him? Maybe she had just felt the need to tell him since well, he deserved to know. Maybe that was all there was to it. Maybe she just had a bad conscience that was all.

Maybe this was just that and had nothing to do with choosing someone.

His eyes were back on hers, searching them, trying to find an answer to exactly this question. Why was she telling him? Lewis tried to suppress the feeling of panic threatening to overcome him when he thought about what Jonathan's reaction was going to be. Somehow he doubted it would be too good. But somehow that wasn't what bothered him the most. It was more the question about what Kurumi wanted to happen now. What she expected from her impending talk with Jonathan. Did she want him to...end this? Or was she going to?

He swallowed again when she said his name, quickly followed by a small shiver running up his arm and down his back when she touched his hand. The owlery? Lewis' eyes narrowed a little at this suggestion, trying to figure out if there was some kind of hidden meaning behind her words. Did she remember? Like...all of it? Or was she just...but he should stop thinking about all of this now. It was no use and he was going to find out soon enough. He just nodded in reply to her question before squeezing her pinky finger with his softly. Yes, the owlery it was then.

He wasn't sure he was ready for whatever she wanted to tell him but he was going to be there.
