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.

Natalie set the quill down when her name was at the top of the paper, neatly scrawled underneath Derf's less-neatly scrawled name. Honestly, she couldn't remember if the professor had asked them to do anything else because all of her attention was on Derf and what she could do to make him feel better.

She moved her hand now free of a quill to hug his arm, too and then peered her baby blue eyes up at him after he questioned her. She paused... because he had never questioned their hugs and snuggle-sitting before. But rather than deterring her, it just reassured her thoughts that Derf was certainly broken.

"Because you're sad and I don't know what else to do," she replied in a whisper, her cheek now resting on his shoulder. She had a feeling they might not get much out of this lesson.
