She thought for a moment to grab his hand to hold it, but she was fearful of it. She didn't know why, it wasn't the big of a deal to hold someones hand was it. She was usually so confident in things, but around him it was all butterflies.
"Yes it is big, it always surprises me when people say how far they travel to get to the other end of countries here." but then again for a person who never did muggle things, she didn't know if Ethan ever had to wait long to reach a place. Then his hands were on her hat, she blushed and giggled. "Well I'm glad, because I have a ton of them in my trunk. I have a fun badger one that I am hoping to wear at the next match." She giggled again and bit her lip looking into his green eyes. Oh he is just so cute and then that wink. Min felt the urge to just lean in and kiss his cheek or something, but...he was walking again. A small quiet sigh she walked with him smiling. This was fun, really fun..
Oh he stepped closer.. No she was very nervous to talk. As she explained she watched his reactions.. Oh this wasn't good, she should have kept her mouth shut. She heard the way it sounded coming out of her mouth and she just wanted to pull it back in.. No...no that isn't how I wanted to say it, she thought. "Yes..She did say that.." She looked up at him with puppy eyes, showing how hurtful it was to her. "I know she doesn't like me, but did she have to go that far." Kicking the ground a little, she felt the irritation come back. Then he said the words that bugged her the most. Stepping closer and giving a small smile she shook her head, "No..No.. It wasn't the only reason. I always think about it when your around, but I just don't usually have the nerve to do it.. not first anyway, let's just say she gave me the nerve I needed." She looked up at him trying to read his reaction to her words.
Ethan's eyes were on the ground as he thought about that day in the Three Broomsticks. How daring he thought she was.. how exciting that moment had been.. maybe it wasn't exactly what he thought, but it was still all those things, was it? Yes.. he thought so..
The boy looked up as Minerva moved closer. Listening to her words, he gave her a playful smirk.
"You always think about it?" he began, stepping even closer.
"Like.. right now?" He raised an eyebrow and his smirk turned into a grin, before he chuckled a bit and started walking again. Teasing a little, maybe.. but the anticipation made it even more fun.
"I think you freaked Mick out a little bit," he added, turning towards her a little. He chuckled a bit thinking how shocked they both were, maybe his friend a little more so. Ethan stopped and faced her fully, a tentative smile playing on his lips.
"So.. I have something for you," he started pulling the small box from his cloak pocket.
