The Whomping Willow.

How could she have been so careless?! Of course she hadn't ever had an experience with the tree before, but she knew enough about the castle to know that it existed somewhere on the grounds. Evidently she hadn't ever stumbled upon it until now.

Her eyes grew big in, at first, shock before shifting to a look of absolute gratefulness. "Józef, you saved my life?" It came out as more of a statement rather than a question. "How can I ever repay you?" Words she didn't often put out into the universe as they often begged for unwanted favors. Her whole body trembled at the thought that something could have happened if she had stepped any further towards the tree.
Those big eyes were very beautiful, Józef had time to admit to himself as he was making sure that they were far enough away from the tree to be safe. And, as soon as he was focusing back on Nina, she was telling him he'd.. saved her life?

Well, if she really believed that, then who was he to deny it? It was true, as well - she was tiny and that beast of a tree would have ripped her to pieces. The thought made him shudder.

Puffing his chest out a little, and trying to act a little more bashful than he felt (without realising, of course, that the too actions were completely juxtaposed), Jó smiled at her. "Yeah, I guess I did." Looking over her, to make sure she was okay, he thought on her question for a moment. "Oh, you don't need to..."
