She shook her head sadly, and a dark curl fell over her shoulder. She pushed it back. "You shouldn't be used to it though. You don't deserve it." That was an understatement. How many good, pure people were there in the world that received so much less than they deserved? Despite this, Samira was so proud of Levi for knowing what he wanted to do with his future. "I think that's a fantastic idea. Getting away, pursuing your dream, that shows you're above him." By 'him' she meant his father, but Samira was pretty sure he knew that. The Slytherin gave the smallest hint of a smile. "You know Levi, you're a really, really good person." She said sincerely. "And I mean it. I don't think there are many people as strong as you, and I'm really happy we're friends." It wasn't just the obvious facts. It was small things, like the fact that he would rescue a hurt bat, or share his comic books with her. The world needed more people like Levi Thomas.

It was nice to have somebody care about him for a change. Not that Levi didn't try to be supportive towards his other friends but he never got a chance to really spill about his home life to them. There was the time he had admitted to Cass that he was being abused but she didn't seem to worry too much about it. The more he thought about her, the more he wondered why he had developed a crush on the blonde in the first place. She was certainly attractive and she was talented, but aside from that, they didn't have too much in common. Even when she was at fault, she seemed to have a martyr complex and he could never understand where it came from. Not all Slytherins were snide by default. Samira was a perfect example of a nice one and she had proved to him that she had a big heart underneath it all.

"Aw, Samira, you're a terrific person and I'm glad that we're friends too..." Levi agreed softly, bestowing her with a sincere smile. "Whenever you need to talk to anybody, I'll always have your back." His dark eyes bore into hers and for a moment, he was tempted to kiss her, mainly out of fervency. He leaned in, hesitantly but he stopped himself before he came off too strong and gave her a hug instead, being mindful of Vlad. He wasn't about too drive her away by being too forward.
