"Hmmmmm," Neptune pretended to think, tapping her chin thoughtfully with an exceedingly well manicured forefinger. "Suppose you know the answer to that. We are sitting here, alone, in the library of Hogwarts and I feel quite content that are here with me." HERE. Here. Like.... she could reach out and touch him if she wanted HERE.
.... so she did. Neptune reached over and .... nudged his hand. Bold girl, obviously.
Jake simply watch Neptune for a moment and raised an eyebrow at her, before chuckling. "Well, yes... I suppose we are," he smiled. Neptune was so awesome... she made him feel WANTED, and was the only person in this big ol' castle who made him feel as such. Like... his presence was good.
And that was good.
When she nudged his hand, Jake looked down and after a moment, turned his hand so it was palm up.
Did she want to hold his hand?
The young man bit his lip eeeeeeeeever so slightly.
