Sticking around, not imposing, he was there to watch after her. Hehe. or that is what she was telling herself.

When Ivan took her hand she first turned her gaze to his hand on her then slowly turned to look in his eyes. Her face crumpled as he confessed that he loved her. She listened to every word he said and let out a huge huff of air. "It's okay. I would have acted rashly and run away had the shoe been on the other foot." She knew she had feelings for him. She was sure of that. But, what was it with Salander? She needed to work that out. "I am very happy with you. You make me feel better than I have in a long time. I just... I don't know what happened there," she said truthfully. Did Ivan need to know that she had kissed Salander before? Nah. "I think... I don't know what I think. I know you make me happy. And so does," she stopped talking and looked down at their hands again. How did that sentence end? Salander made her happy too.
His eyes following Sabel as he went to read at a log he then turned to Lexi. He'd said what he'd originally thought up in the two seconds he'd had of thinking time before she showed up. Then she was talking and he was still running his fingers along her hand not really wanting to let go of it. She was just...happy with him. Talk about a low blow for his ego. What part of his stupid imagination had thought up the fact she would say she loved him too and they'd be all happy again. The fantasy part. Of course. He could finish that. That Slytherin did too.

Looking away from her and down at the ground he tried to think. He looked up from the ground to spot Sabel on the log again. Be honest. Right. Normally he didn't have a relationship so he didn't HAVE this problem. "I don't know what to tell you Lexi and I can't tell you what to do. You can either be with me or not but you can't have both. I just can't do that." And that was the protection of his heart. "Why don't you take some time and think about it? If you think that he can make you happy More than I can then...you know what to do." He swallowed hard at that one and looked down at her hand in his. He took a deep breath and sighed, "I never thought I'd be having this conversation with you." His face contorted slightly in a painful grimace. Especially since she had been the one to press his asking her out.
