SPOILER!!: oh my feels

Derf was mostly just staring a random spot on the parchment and trying not to let his thoughts wander too far from the task at hand. But it was such a simple task that that was kinda proving to be impossible. He had sorta been banking on Astronomy being a complicated mess tonight so he could put all his efforts in trying to understand what the hay was going on. But collecting a piece of parchment and writing their names on it? The third year did not feel all that hopeful at the moment.

His thoughts were drawn from the coming spiral when he felt an arm loop through his and then his posture went a bit rigid for just a second when someone's head was on his shoulder. It took him an embarrassingly long second to recall that he had been sitting next to Natalie and that familiar scent was the shampoo she used on her hair. Natalie's arm and Natalie's head. Right.

Turning his own head slightly, the Hufflepuff looked down at the top of hers while she added her name to the parchment. "What is this for?" Because, er, they only ever really sat like this...um...well...Derf couldn't really think of a time they had sat like this actually. It felt different from other snuggling sitting times...hence him asking.

Bad things that had happened a few days ago in the Room of Requirement when everyone was at rehearsal. All she could think about since then was how Derf had been trying to help and protect HER and HE was the one that had been at the rehearsal and had seen it all. Natalie still didn't know all the details, but rumors had been flying, as they do at Hogwarts. Derf's appearance made her feel worse. But it was a deep, heavy concern that sat on her chest and made her sad and worried and SAD. She knew Derf was not himself. His eyes weren't as blue and his hair wasn't as fluffy. He wasn't Derf. Natalie nodded at him just as he got up to get the parchment. She stood up quickly to... to what? Hug him? Protect him? What if the parchment was cursed? .... But then she just sat down again, her eyes sad. What was she supposed to do? Her best friend was all.. broken. And she didn't know how to fix him. She watched him return with the parchment and sit down, watched him write his name and pass it over to her. She watched him for a moment longer, ignoring the parchment between them for the time being. She wanted to TALK to him, but they were in class and it just wasn't the right time. She also wasn't sure he even wanted to talk to her about it. Merlin, shouldn't he be in the hospital wing? Getting care? Like, emotional support? With a little sigh, Natalie scooted closer to Derf and tightly looped her arm through his and hugged it, leaning her head against his shoulder. Then she finally picked up the quill and wrote her name, quiet the whole time.
