A path is not simply for walking, its purpose lies in moving forward and improving oneself. “I can’t play any instrument either” he admitted. At least they had something in common now. But you know what they say right? Opposite attracts. “We had a piano had home and I got a couple of lessons before my tutor gave up on me” he sighed loudly but grinned. “Apparently I have no feeling for rhythm” he laughed. Yes, he had flaws. Not many if he said so himself. He was perfect!
He stopped taking care of the plants himself and simply watched Norah as she took care of them. She really loved these plants didn’t she? With the way she talked to them and took care. It was just adorable and he liked this caring side of hers. Resisting the urge to give her a back hug, because that would be too awkward he turned back to his own plants.
He hadn’t meant to shout of course. But his nerves got the best of him the more he waited. What were his sisters talking about ? telling him to wait till the perfect moment to ask her out? He didn’t even know when that was and the longer it took the more nervous he got. He heard the pruning shears fall down on the ground and the Gryffindor immediately stooped down to pick it up.
CPR?! “Uuuh…” he stared at her. Was it bad that he wanted to say that he DID wanted CPR? That was basically kissing…. But again he shook his head. “Ah, no…I just…” he scratched the back of his neck awkwardly . Wait, what? Lied? Noooooo! He hadn’t meant to say that! He didn’t even know why he said that! “Well, I didn’t really lie. Or maybe I did? I don’t know?” This was not how he had pictured how this would go.
In his mind. He had pictured him cool and confident. Asking her his question at the perfect timing and keeping it romantic. Apparently, he had a lot to learn… He took a deep breath to calm himself. “I lied about meeting you here to take care of the plants because i actually wanted to talk to you about something else” he said and was glad that his voice sounded a lot calmer this time. But that didn’t last long. “NOT that I didn’t want to do that! I mean, its fun hanging out with you and I’ve always wanted to cut off dead plants with you!” ………..What the, yoongi? He was talking at top speed, more like rambling and once he begun he couldn’t stop. “You’re funny and smart and not to mention pretty and so caring.... I could say hundreds of reasons why I think you’re incredible but that would take me forever and I like talking, you know that, but not for that long” He laughed nervously. Chill Yoongi, chiiiiill! “I’m sorry for rambling, I’m nervous. I just never asked someone if she wanted to be my girlfriend before and…….” O________________O THAT WAS NOT HOW HE WANTED TO ASK THAT!
His shoulders slumped and he cringed at his own stupidity. He had practiced the situation in front of the mirror but real life was so much harder. Could he obliviate her and try again?
