He simply watched her, taking in every bit of her appearance as he could. "You'd look amazing no matter what you have on. I'm just so glad to get to see you.." And she certainly didn't need to wear a dress to impress him, especially if she would be uncomfortable in the process. Just the fact that she was sitting across from him within arm's reach was more than enough. He grinned then chuckled as she lightly ran a hand over his facial hair. "Yeah, I still have it.. as long as you still like it.." He had to admit he rather liked the look himself as long as he kept it trimmed and it didn't get to far out of hand.
He glanced up, catching a movement and expecting it to be one of the servers so they could order. But it was a different and familiar face - Wade. Maybe meeting his girlfriend.. he'd make sure to say hi later, having not seen him in a while either. He gave the boy a nod and casual wave back, then turned his attention back to his main focus.
Ethan gave a light chuckle as he looked down at their hands, then nodded in agreement before looking back up at her. "I know I would go crazy not only not being able to be around you for that long, but to not see your face and hear your voice.." He trailed off, not even wanting to think about what that would be like. This separation was hard enough. "Much better.." he grinned, running his thumb lightly over his fingers. Then he gave her an incredulous look at her words. "You aren't serious? Even to use the greenhouse just for a lesson?" That just didn't seem right. He had hated those turnstiles last term too, but thought they were done with that. And to force you to pay to go to something compulsory that should have already been covered by tuition.. And that would probably just turn people off of Herbology. He knew he'd end up going broke if he had to pay every time he wanted to use the greenhouse.
Ethan couldn't help but chuckle a bit at Min's words, though it soon faded as he realized she probably felt that more than she was joking. "Well, I don't know.. classes are pretty interesting, harder too. Did I tell you about the gillyweed I used to study the plants in the lake?" He got sick not long after that and had wondered if it was his poorly cast heating charm that contributed to that. "Semester is coming to an end so I have finals.. but next semester I'm taking a Charms class that has to do with using plants in cooking." It went right along with his Herbology course, but he thought she might find that interesting. "And what's been going on with you lately?" Other than what he didn't know from talking to her nearly daily. "How's the dance routine coming?"
Minerva smile grew as he said she looked good. So all her exercising and practicing was paying off in other ways then just getting better it seemed. She really had wished she dressed a little nicer for him now and figured she would be during winter break with the fundraising event they would be going to together. [b ] “You are just being sweet.. This is nothing special and you deserve special.”[/b] Especially after not seeing him for so long. She grinned at him,
“I love it actually. It looks really good on you.” She did really like the facial hair on him. It was a look she had to get use to seeing but it was a good look.
Minerva saw Ethan look in a direction and glanced the same way. She smiled as she saw Kitty come in. She wondered where Indy was but figured she was coming soon. Giving him a small wave and smile she turned back to Ethan.
“I really don’t know what I’d do without him and Indy around this term. They include me in everything. It’s really sweet. I feel bad at times because I have to be so annoying to them.” She frowned at the thought hating to be the third wheel which clearly she was.
But today she wasn’t she was back in her little bubble that she missed so much. She smiled when he agreed that he would go crazy not talking to her. She was glad she wasn’t the only one. She felt so clingy at times, but she just couldn’t help it. She nodded,
“I am very serious. You have to pay every time you go in.” She couldn’t help but smile though,
“Ethan I did well. I wasn’t anxious at all in class. Well okay someone brought up flesh eaters and I jumped, but all and all I was good.” She knew that would make him happy. So flowers were friends not burning, eating horror movies. She bit her lip,
“They are at the library too.” That did not make her happy at all which a sigh followed her words.
“It’s a bit annoying.” She really felt over certain things, but this wasn’t the time nor the place to be annoyed by anything.
Minerva smiled as he talked about his classes. He seemed so excited about them. Min couldn’t help but feel a little jealous of that feeling. She hadn’t been excited for a class yet and most were just not great. A few were good, but it just wasn’t her term. She kept the smile enjoying listening to him.
“No I don’t think you did. Was that fun? How did it go?” She wanted every detail about his life when she wasn’t around. Oh a charms class now that was interesting.
“I’ll have to take a look at your book.” He wouldn’t mind her looking.
“Maybe I’ll find some new things to use.” That could be good for everyone. She shrugged when he asked about her,
“There really isn’t anything exciting.” she shrugged.
“Classes are about the same as when you were there, quidditch has been alright. We have some great talent this term. I hope I can keep up my game. I’ve been studying a lot. That’s about it.” She wasn’t sure what else to really say, wow was she really boring anymore.
“I’ve been jogging every morning. That’s something new I guess.” Like he cared really, she didn’t know what else to talk about. She did smile when he asked about the dance.
“It’s coming.. I have a few places I’m struggling, but I think once we are able to practice together it will get better.” She was really looking forward to practicing with him.
