Yes. It was necessary. Apparently. Zeke nodded along to acknowledge that he heard and understood, NOT that he agreed.
In his opinion detention was as good as a life sentence to Azkaban. It'd be on his record... and his mum would know about it. At least, if there were kisses involved he'd hope it was from Maggie and not a dementor. Not that that was likely, what with Mr. KissingIsIllegalInMySpaceOfInquiry ... yeah, yeah. Rubbish.
As for happiness being an illogical emotion, it really wasn't, if he could avoid detention and do anything else... ANYTHING ELSE, he would be happy. VERY happy. He returned Maggie's hand squeeze, content with her moving closer. Maybe there was a chance they could salvage what was left of their night, there was still time... wasn't there?
Why Maggie bothered drawing out their departure was beyond him. Professor Airey said to exit, and so he would. With a quick salute and a casual-despite-the-awkwardness "See you, Sir", he pulled Maggie along. They had to laugh about this, because that's all one could do. Laugh.
