This was actually scaring her more, that Lewis wasn't reacting to her moving close to her. At least not like he usually did. There was no return hand squeeze, no obvious smile in his eyes. No slightly pinkish glow to his cheeks. Her own color had seemingly drained from her face as she studied him for another moment. He wasn't going to let her see what was bothering him, was he?

Especially when him averting his eyes like he was. No fair, that was how she usually figured things out...

"Notes?" she asked, not really requiring an answer. Last time she had checked she had all her notes. She kept them sorted alphabetically and even had them color coded to a certain extend. Wait, maybe these were some notes that she had forgotten somewhere? Her memory had been spotty and then the whole freezing bit... Or maybe these were from when she had helped him study for his OWLs? But that was so long ago...

Reluctantly letting go of Lewis' hand, Kurumi slowly opened the envelope with shaking hands and reached in to pull out its contents. She only got as far as the top part of the parchments inside, the part where she saw the words 'Composed by Jonathan Kim' in her handwriting, and froze.

She felt as though her heart had just been ripped out of her chest, again. So Louisa had given him these for her...and he had returned them. He didn't care. Didn't even want to think about her anymore. He was rejecting her. Everything about her.

Kurumi couldn't help but whimper as she slowly removed the top sheet only from inside and set it down on her lap. She looked at it for a moment, her eyes stinging again with hot tears. Tears that she hated were showing right now. Tears that she was rather ashamed of to be entirely honest as she remembered the conversation she had had with Treyen during the holidays. She had been thinking about it, a lot, and still was...but now there was no way she couldn't tell Lewis.

Not when this had just happened.
