A few moments passed, and he realized he was still looking at her and quickly dropped his gaze, silently berating himself for acting creepy.

"I... uh..." he stammered, but his voice trailed off before he could get any real words out; he decided it was probably better to hear what she had to say first before attempting small talk. He took a step back and accidentally bumped the branch the owl was sitting on. It flew up and gave a loud disgruntled WHOO! "Sorry, sorry..." he whispered, stroking the bird's feathers as he fed it a few more treats. Merlin, why did he always have to be so clumsy around Rosalyn?!

"Yes, of course." His smile faded a little at her next words, and there was a slight tinge of sadness in his eyes. He would wait a lifetime if she asked, but he couldn't help but wonder if he'd been wrong to hope she'd give him a chance after the term ended. "I-I just hoped-" he stammered, running a hand through his black hair. "M-maybe over the s-summer holiday you might..." Merlin, this was going nowhere!

Rosalyn smiled at Gaston, but the hooting of owls momentarily distracted her. Right. She needed to find one to use so that she could send off her letter. Times like this she wondered why she didn't own one, but then she had never really had a pet of her own. Instead she had used the school owls and visited the creatures that were kept in the barn. Maybe she could buy herself a cat since they seemed to be easier to look after than a dog and she could actually take it to the school with her...

A moment later she was brought out of her thoughts by the loud hoot of an owl. Her eyes widened as she looked back to a rather unsettled Gaston. "Everything okay?" The owl hadn't scratched him, had it? She was worried until she saw that he seemed to be perfectly okay. Thank Merlin. If he had been hurt she wouldn't know what to do! Well, she'd have definitely taken him to see Joy, but she would have been very upset.

They finally had the chance to continue the conversation from Hogsmeade and she had been sure that he hadn't forgotten though a small part of her had worried that maybe he did. Rosalyn knew that she was being ridiculous but she couldn't help it. She kept smiling as Gaston spoke, encouraging him though he was stammering a lot and couldn't even finish the thought. "Of course I would," she said a moment later.
