She had been avoiding him for just this purpose. All of her careful planning flew out the window when he said those words to her just like she knew they would, that was why she was avoiding him. Now he had handed off all of the weight of their relationship to her, it was lady's choice. Sneaky little prat. She didn't know how to even begin to respond. All of the voices in her head were telling her different things and she was not sure which one was the appropriate response. But then one small voice was pushing through the crowd of voices screaming to be heard. It came not from her head, no, from much deeper...

"Okay," she said softly. So soft she herself had to think twice to check she really had just said what she thought she said. She cleared her throat and repeated a little louder, "Yes, alright. I wanna try this too... just..." she hitched her breath and continued, "just promise we will not change? I like you as you are right now and I'm sorry I avoided you. I was just scared; merlin, I'm still scared. This is all new for me."

There was a lot at stake and she had no idea where to even begin. She just knew that she had to listen to that little voice that was not in her head.
Her eyeing him wasn't helping his nerves at all and Gideon bit the inside of his cheek as his feet absently shuffled to pass the time. And however long it took Selina to finally speak, it was like it was taking forever and he guess he couldn't blame her. They had been hesitant to claim whatever was between them as anything. For one of them to admit it took guts, for the other to return the feeling, meant there was no going back. When he barely heard her quiet okay, Gideon let out a breathe he hadn't even known he had been holding.

Taking a hold of her hand, well both hands, much like she herself had taken one of his at the quiiditch match, he intertwined their hands for a moment before speaking. "I...Gideon Gavin Gert promise tae ensure 'at whatever happens we will always be friends." His accent was clearer then it had been when they first had started showing he was calmer now. That being said, Gideon lifted their connect hands and raised hers to his lips to grace a kiss upon them and then lowered them once more.

"I dunna want to lose that anymore then ye do Selina," he said as he finally get go of at least one hand. "And appology accepted. I'da be the same way, we just cunna both be else we'd be miserable."
