Plus the fact that she and Lex were kind of huddled, body heat radiating and it was good.

She was glad seeing that Lex had started arranging the candy. Was she even aware of her hands moving and putting candy away in piles? Either way it was a way of allowing the fourth-year to do something rather than sitting motionless.

Watching Lex's hands as they moved professionally, she felt herself getting restless despite the cold. It was so silent and the lights were dim. Her eyebrow lifted seeing the last move and she extended her arm and covered Lex's hand with her stopping it. "What's on your mind?" She whispered.

It was only meant to be one more piece idly organized but soon she found herself shoving aside the oranges, pulling the greens a bit closer. Were they all in colours now? Could she start the sorting by flavour? Texture? Availability? Preference? Price? She hadn't quite made up her mind yet but her hand was still moving...that is until Cassia stopped it with her own.

Lex glanced over at her, feeling her fingers twitch just a bit from their new found lack of activity. "There's lots on my mind. None of it good." She pulled her hand away, this time deliberately focusing on the sweets already in some form of order on the floor. The silence had been lovely but she knew, yes, she knew that that question would be the start of a conversation and the end of the comfortable silence they'd been sitting in just now. Funny...Cassia was out of chocolate frogs. Did she need her to get her some? It wouldn't be a problem, those were a necessity.

While she sorted, it occurred to her that she might very well have been keeping Cassia waiting. Her earlier answer wasn't exactly an answer afterall. Lex plopped another fizzing whizbee in the 'interesting' pile before giving her her full attention again. "Just very unexpectedly hurtful things I guess." There was a shrug added to that but she resisted the urge to move the pack of jelly beans over to the 'cheap' pile. No sorting right now.
