"I'll jus' try not te go through a hoop meself again." he said wryly making a face.
Laughing at her question he nodded "I think so, but I've had a few people say thet te me te. It's got a different taste me thinks. Mixed better then just stirred. Not tried making it thet way yet though." Taking another sip he put rested the mug on the arm of the chair next to them so he was sure he'd not spill it on her if he spilled accidentally.
"Have ye thought more about Christmas?" he asked casually, curious if she'd made her decision or not. If they were to stay at the school he wanted to make it memorable, and get to planning!
He'd watched her reaction carefully. He wanted to make sure that he wasn't reading anything wrong. But with what she'd said he couldn't figure he would read it wrong, but you never knew. He'd been surprised at many things she'd said or other girls had in the past. A smile appeared at her words though, "I was gonna wait til Christmas but..." Why should he, was it really the timing that mattered? No, he didn't think waiting would change his mind in anyway "I love ye Amelia Serenity Pendragon." he said softly before kissing the top of her head that was partially buried into his chest.
"I'll try not to jump, but I make no promises about not falling off of it," because saying she wouldn't would probably just tempt fate and make it more likely that she would take a tumble due to being hit by a bludger or losing her grip or something due to the wintery weather. Although she was glad that it was obvious he'd been worried about her that last time once he realized what she'd done she didn't want to worry him unnecessarily again. Especially during a game where they'd all need to concentrate on their own roles. "Good. Because I'm sure that wasn't fun. But at least this time I'm sure the team will try to make sure that doesn't happen."
Amelia simply nodded at his words, more taken in by the words that followed than anything else. Since those words were more important than a reference that was probably muggle in origin. And even though from the way the conversation had been going she was sure that he was going to say those three important words hearing them from him made her feel... Well it made her feel more than she thought that she would. She felt safer and warmer than ever and she just wanted to say them back to him, but something stopped her from repeating them. So she simply moved to hug him tighter and whispered, "Me too," hoping that he wouldn't be offended that she hadn't said that she loved him, because she did, and she would tell him that soon, just not at this very moment since they were stuck in her throat.
"I think I'd like to meet your parents if you want me too," she whispered. She hadn't been planning on saying that, not really because she didn't want to impose but he loved her, and that suddenly made it much less awkward in her mind. Although she did hope that they could still spend some time alone together over the holiday because she just really wanted to be close to him.
