He hadn't seemed THAT upset after she had told him, he had even hugged her, gave her words of encouragement. Tried to make her not feel like her small world had just come to an end.
Just like Jonathan was doing now...
"I miss him," she said softly. "And n-n-not in the way I expected I would. I miss him as a friend." She sighed softly and leaned her head against Jonathan's shoulder.
Something...something must have happened between the time they had spoken in the Trophy Room and the end of the term feast. Whatever it was, she needed to figure it out.
"I...I hope so..." she said shyly. "We are prefects together and I would hate for the group's dynamics to be ruined because of me."
Her hands flew to her mouth and her eyes widened.
Merlin. She had said it out loud. Selina was going to beat her with a Beater's bat now. Jonathan knows how that feels like. After confessing and getting mad and not talking to each other for months, that's the worse. But of course, he's not going to tell her that. She needs encouraging words not phrases that will trauma her for life. She going to a fourth year this year and she'll be much stronger than she was. "Yeah... you'll learn how to miss him as a friend" Jonathan sigh. For that was the worse thing that could ever happen to a relationship with a friend. Missing the way you two used to be. The things you would laugh about and the things that make you dislike someone. It'll be sad when you're alone and not being able to talk to anyone.
Jonathan felt Kurumi's hand on his shoulder. He can feel the sadness in her voice. The yearning to make up for Treyen. As tempting as the obliviate spell be, this was no laughing matter. Jonathan can't just joke nor tease about this. So he put his arm around her, trying to comfort her...
...But then she uttered out something that stiffened Jonathan. His eyes beaming and looking at her. "You're the new prefect of Gryffindor?" he smiled. "Bloody hell, this is awesome news, Kurumi" Jonathan hugged her. Despite of their topic earlier, which they can just go back, this one just calls for a celebration. SHE SHOULDN'T BE SAD AT ALL.
