It is what she always did when she was in a group or pair, splitting the work made it all that much easier. The height thing.....he was one of the ones that came when she and the others got spidernapped sooo.....he could be afraid of heights.
What model? "It is a Firebolt , Supreme." She smiled a little, it was an expensive professional grade broom yes, but she loved flying and her father liked spoiling her when it came to practical wants. "If you feel brave, maybe I will take you on a low flight later? She is a good broom, I fly alot." She loved flying and couldn't fathom someone not experiencing that joy. Everyone should be happy? That was sort of an opinionated thought wasn't it? Why did someone have to feel a certain way just because it was a holiday? "I have family stuff going on and....had a difference in opinion with a friend." Like arguing / talking to lawyers / pre-divorcing parents.......and her best friend who spurned her love confession......Not something she wanted to lay bare to be examined. She was a raw nerve. This was distraction, not therapy session as much as she appreciated the boys willingness to help and listen.
Ilia watched Yoongi get bright red and laugh nervously. What was that all about???? She looked up..........as an owl came crashing. That poor baby! Yoongi had it handled though and helped the adorable ball of feathers out. Poor little guy......Oh he got one of those santa letters....and seemed rather happy about it. Hmm...
At what Yoongi said, she blushed. Wait.......did Yoongi 'like' her????? She looked up again...oh Mistletoe.....she couldn't deny him a kiss supposedly. She thought about it, maybe she would, but....after her interaction with Henric, she wasn't exactly up to the task of being that form of affectionate. It was , in fact, in her culture and legends at least, more about friendliness than romance anyways. She swept up close in front of him and put her face close to him as if she were simply going to kiss him. She considered it. Should she? It was just a kiss right? Nothing more. If Henric didn't love her or want her affection, why should she deny herself? The simple fact was that it just hurt too much. Rejection wasn't something that she enjoyed and she did not want Yoongi to reject her after she kissed him too. Her face emotionless and right in front of his as she considered just kissing him. She then swiftly but gently slid her hand over his mouth and kissed the back of it. It was a way of friendship kissing in her family and she was too hurt and hung up over Henric to kiss another boy right now, even if Henric didn't love her. Pulling back, she straightened her clothes and tucked her hair back. "So lets get to decorating now then?"
So he had been right that it had meant bless you and that she hadn’t been cursing him. Good to know~
“Ah ok! Thanks then “ he laughed before he coughed again. And he just nodded his head as she encouraged him about his height training.
A firebolt supreme?
“ARE YOU RICH OR SOMETHING?!” He shouted , causing his throat to hurt and he rubbed his neck but he kept eyeing the broomstick.
“Huh what?” he looked back at Ilia and bit his lower lip. Should he do that?
“The last time I was on a broom I fell from a great height…” though that wasn’t how his fear started. He had been afraid of heights even before he sat on that broom. Luckily his father had helped him when he had fallen.
“Ok! Let’s do it” was he signing his death contract right now or?
“Ah…. Sorry I don’t think I can help when its about family stuff…” he didn’t want to come in between something like that but he didn’t like it that she looked so down.
“Well then, I can be a great distraction. I mean, not only am I good to look at but I’m also really funny” LOOOOL . He grinned at her and then…..she was….stepping closer. HAD SHE SEEN THE MISTLETOE?! Why was she getting closer…and closer…oh gosh he could see her eyelashes! THAT WAS REALLY CLOSE. His face reddened and he held his breath. Was she going to kiss him?! Here? NOW?!
What should he do? He hadn’t kissed before how did one even do that? Was he supposed to close his eyes? Open his mouth? WHAT?! As the Slytherin leaned in closer, Yoongi’s eyes widened and then….A hand was gently covered over his mouth and she kissed the back of it. And then she leaned away. Still staring at one point, the Gryffindor shook his head when he heard her voice again.
“d-decorating what?” he stuttered and looked at the tree.
“OH! Oh yeah..yeah let’s do that”
Wait, she had put his hand over his mouth but he was sick!
“Wait! Here!” he pulled out a sheet from his Undetectable Extension Charmed pockets and ripped them off before giving it to her
. “Its…actually a facial sheet mask but… you can clean your hands on it… because..you know…I’m sick and I don’t want you to get sick as well and…” He cleared his throat and turned to the tree with a bright blush on his face.
