Kind of perfect. Alec really liked the sound of those words, actually. But mainly the idea of this being 'perfect'. "Yeah? I'm really glad it does," GRIN. Except... "Erm... you didn't have any other plans today, did you?" Because he had sort of just asked her to come along without checking if it was okay with her first.

Alec reached up a hand to ruffle his hair absent-mindedly, his eyes still on the box on the table. ... Maybe he needed to stop doing that. The hair ruffling, that is. There really wasn't anything to be ner- "You okay?" he asked, tilting his head to the side, slightly. Because, when his eyes tore away from the gift to look up at her, it was only to notice that the girl was looking back at him.

Nodnod. "That distance thing over the summer wasn't... great," ... It sucked, actually. And it was weird not knowing whether he could go over to her house or not. Whereas here at Hogwarts, he knew that if he saw her in the common room, he was more than welcome to greet her. ... He was, right? ... Moving on... "Anytime!" GRIN. "Yeah, I really like it! And I'll wear it all the time!" And the quietness of her voice only made him want to kiss her even more... but... instead... he gently squeezed her hand back. And grinned some more.

She loved it! Like actually loved it! Which was different to just liking something, yeah? "I'm really glad you do! Erm... do you want me to put it on you?" Unless she didn't want to wear it, that is. That was cool too. "I love you too, Ells!" GRIN.

... Food! Right. Alec nodded and looked down at the menu, scanning the list quickly. This... was probably something he should have looked at before. Yeah. Especially since there were a lot of things on the menu and the girl wanted anything. "Well... do you want to go with something to do with ice cream or something else entirely?" ... And was that apple crumble on the list? GRIN.


Ella simply grinned at Alec as he laughed some more. So far so good, yeah? And no sign of Astrid which was promising.

...

Other plans? Ella tilted her head and eyed Alec curiously, wondering why he asked. Was he worried that she'd rather be somewhere else? Grabbing his hand, the blonde laced their fingers and shook her head. "Of course not. I wanted to spend today with you." Grin. "Can I tell you a secret?" And she stood on her tippy toes so that she could whisper in his ear. "You're sort of my favorite, y'know." But he shouldn't go around telling everyone. She didn't want to make the others feel bad.

The hair ruffling brought a small smile to Ella's face and she was itching to reach out and ruffle it too. His hair was just really lovely, Alec's was. Oh, and now she'd been caught. Caught staring at him with that goofy smile on her face. Well that was embarrassing. The sixteen year old's cheeks flushed and she nodded. "Me? Oh I'm um...good. Great, even. Why do you ask?"

"It was awful." The distance thing. Why couldn't they live closer? Every time Ella had complained about it her Gran had went on about how absence makes the heart grow fonder but Ella's heart was pretty fond as it was. No need for the separation bit. Anyway...on to happier things, yeah? "You will?" Something about seeing her Granddad's watch on Alec made Ella feel really really happy. And at home. That too. The blonde smiled at their hands again as he squeezed back, stifling the urge to get up and kiss him. ...Causeshereallywantedtodothat.

Put it on? Ella nodded and played with the necklace she already had on, unclasping it and placing it carefully on the table. "Yes please." And something about hearing him say those words made Ella's stomach fill with butterflies. Yup. They were flying all over the place in there.

Food. Hm. "Let's do something else this time." Grin. "How about...something pie-ish?" And could they have tea too? Tea sounded nice.
