Upon entry, Eria declined taking the fur coat. She was wearing a thermal henley and that was good enough. She wanted the cold, warming herself by wearing something that someone else's germs were likely all over seemed counter productive.
Pleased that she was alone, the tall brunette walked behind the sofa and laid down on the ice floor. If she was numb, she couldn't feel the pain...and then it didn't exist. Taking a breath she began to meditate, laying with her back on the icy floor.
Nathan needed an excuse to be out of the Slytherin common room so he wouldn't have to face his ex again. He couldn't deal with all the...complicated feelings whenever he sees her hanging out with her friends or in class. His chest tightened and his stomach in knots when she walked past him in the hallway earlier. She acted like she didn't see him which was expected. But it was still hard to look at her and not feel guilty.
What he wanted, was to have some space and distance. And what better way to escape, then to explore this creepy-looking ice structure in the outskirts of the Forbidden Forest. An igloo, they called it? Why in the world did they put an igloo here? Whatever. He was curious. Good thing Nathan brought his own coat or he had to resort himself wearing those unflattering fur coats provided by the school.
As he entered the place, he immediately took notice of a girl laying back on the cold, icy floor. Did she slip and fall on her back or something...and just didn't bother to get up? He stepped closer to inspect. Hmm... she seemed fine, alive and breathing.
"What are you doing on the floor? Aren't your back cold?" Nathan asked, his face contorted incredulously.
