"Incarcerous?" she murmured to herself, eyes widening slightly. Merlin couldn't this feast be a quiet one where she didn't have to use her badge for something or someone was trying to blow something up or --- "DAICHI?!"
Kurumi's eyes both widened and softened instantly when she saw what the fifth year had done and did so even more when she heard what he had to say. "Daichi..." she half laughed as her eyes sort of began to water. She wasn't even going to bother telling him that she could just use a Severing Charm and then they wouldn't be tied together. That wasn't the point. Instead she just pulled him in for a tight hug and rested her chin on top of his head. Sort of an awkward scene since Daichi was SO much taller than her. "I'm going to miss you....so much Daichi..." she whispered, feeling her words somewhat catch in her throat..
At first, Daichi thought that Kurumi would try and break free from him when he had wrapped the rope around her arm and he now clinged on the Prefect. But when she didn't and even grabbed him in a tight hug Daichi knew he was going to cry.
NO! he was a MAN! Men don't cry! They only cry in their hearts not on the outside! The Slytherin's lower lip wibbled as he tried to keep the tears from falling.
Their hugging position felt awkward concidering how much taller Daichi is than Kurumi and he realized that his hands were clutching on to her clothes. Not wanting to let go. Her words stung him because he knew that this was their last real goodbye and he blinked his eyes rapidly for he still did not want to cry. Remember Daichi, you're a MAN!
"If..." he said with a croaked voice and sighed.
"Then if you're going to miss me...stay, please!"
While his arm was still tied to Kurumi's arm, Daichi's other hand went in to his pocket and grabbed out something silver.
"I, i asked my big brother to-to buy this..." he said in almost a whisper as his cheeks flushed a deep shade of red. What a questions he had gotten from him? Oooh is it for your girlfriend~? little Dai Dai?! ooooh! Yeah it hadn't been exactly ...fun.
Shaking his head, the Slytherin held up the
goodbye present.
"If you don't like it you can return it..." Quote:

The Slytherin's comment took her by surprise, but it manage to bring a genuine smile to her face. "Oh, thank yo Daichi... I figured it might serve to lighten the mood." Considering the events of the past month.
Still standing beside Kurumi, both of their arms tied together since the Gryffindor had not cut free, Daichi turned to face the Professor again and realized that she was odd looking. It was like he was looking at her from underwater and it took a few seconds for Daichi to realize that....he was crying.
Unnoticed, silent tears had formed in his eyes and he quickly used the back of his free arm sleeve to wipe them away.
"Y-yeah, lighten the mood" he repeated and smiled a little. Aww man! he had promised himself not to cry!
"P-professor Bentley? Can...can you lock Kurumi in the Greenhouses? That way she can't leave!"
