"...I guess." Was her only quiet response. She wouldn't deny that what he said was true, she
would do fine and probably have a great fifth year without him, but it didn't change the fact that she didn't want to have to go at Hogwarts on without him. It just wouldn't be the same.
The thought alone was enough to put tight knots in her stomach, and keep a smile from her face. She slipped an arm around his front and if possible snuggled closer to him.
"I'll miss you some kinda terrible though."
