"I do want to learn..." he admitted quietly, eyes cast down at his hands where he was fidgeting. At that moment he also realised how close the two of them were, and almost moved away from her, but that was when she began speaking again.
Oh no.
He forgot that he didn't have a choice.
There were flying lessons for first years.
He wouldn't have time to relax himself into his. His green eyes shot to the girl at his side. "I think I'd rather you teach me," he blurted out. "I mean, you know how to fly! Like, you play quidditch so you should know. And I know the teacher will also know, but I don't know her. And they've probably grown up flying and won't understand! And I trust you and-"
He cut his babbling off, realising that he just gave away exactly how terrified he was of flying.
Covering his eyes in embarrassment he leaned forward, not even registering how she had apologised.
He still didn't realise she had been touching him.
Azura nodded as Jasper spoke and she looked down at him, concern in her purple eyes as she watched him. He was leaning forward a bit.. not really looking at her.
Was this what it meant by "in his own head? She wondered to herself as she watched him.
"I know it's scary.. but." She didn't get the rest out, as suddenly his eyes shot to hers and for a moment she forgot how to breathe! But in a second she composed herself and nodded as he started to blurt out his feelings!
Ohhh.. He trusted her! A small smile came over her face and she tried to hide it, because warm flutters were not super appropriate when the person who gave her said flutters was.. panicking!
"Okay, I'll teach you.. and don't worry, we will go slow and everything will be just fine.. I promise." She said as she looked over at him.
Upside.. he didn't seem to notice she had rubbed his arms, so no neck itching.. though he did seem to be a bit embarrassed from telling her that he was scared.
"Hey Jazzy.." She said softly as she leaned towards him a bit..
"You wanna know a secret?" She asked him.
"I was terrified when I first started flying.. I thought I was going to die too." She admitted to him with a smile.
