Originally Posted by Chelliephone Jude need not worry, Evan had only glanced over to make sure his friend was okay when he'd realized how much of his time his cousins had been monopolize. Understandable, given the event and the fact Chinhae had asked them all to attend him, but he'd still tried to be conscious of it so Jude wouldn't get bored. Not that it was easy to be particularly bored around his family, or Mycelia's he'd soon found. Wynter. He'd had to think for a moment which one that was, before giving a small nod. "Her kids did seem pretty cute." He was hesitant to say much more about them though. Evan was... not much of a baby person. Younger kids, sure, but babies he had no idea what to do with. He snorted softly at the request to stay human, giving a small shrug. "I will if I can." Oh how nice it would be if he was able to control that. "You have a jumper. My alpaca side is not very discerning regarding food." One of his own school robes could attest to that.
It was quiet for a moment while it seemed like Jude was deciding how much he wanted to say; if anything. And Evan respected the silence for as long as it was needed, giving him ample time to decide what he wanted to say. The admission was... a surprise, because Evan hadn't expected him to be concerned about that. Evan had other friends, certainly, but outside of perhaps Ash and summers playing soccer with Blake, Jude was the only one who got a large portion of his time. But... that would change, just for the next year until they were both graduated. He paused while considering how to answer, before turning to look at the Hufflepuff. "Our friendship has already survived a lot of different hurdles. You're my best friend, and while there are always room for other friends in both of our lives, that doesn't mean it's ever going to change my regard for you. I'll miss you next year. But we'll keep in touch. And even if we both are spending time with different people, our friendship will also last and stay important." Wasn't that a lesson that Jude himself had taught Evan only a few years prior?
Jude, in fact, had not gotten bored at all at that wedding. The same could be said clearly about the entire trip. He had enjoyed every moment and would always be grateful that Evan had asked him along. “They are. All kids are, if you think of it.” A very good thing for him to say given the fact that someday he’d have an entire Quidditch team. Well, Evan needn’t worry if he spontaneously combusted into an alpaca; Jude’d be there to take care of him. Chuckling softly, the Hufflepuff quipped, “Fabric, paper and all that jazz are not good for your stomach, my sweet-loving friend.” It was why Jude purposely carried carrots and apples with him: he was worried about Evan consuming the other stuff he had just mentioned.
That was exactly Jude’s point: them being in each other’s company would change drastically in the next year. Who knew if Evan would find that he liked being Jude-free in that time? Indeed a lot can happen in about 365 days. The sixth year didn’t expect Evan to have an answer to his dilemma or even words of comfort but it felt better to have his worry out in the open. In a way, it reminded him of Reagan and the dread she felt when Koen was about to be married and in turn have more time away from his other three siblings. He almost laughed at the sheer coincidence of his and Rea’s insecurities. Almost. Jude finally looked around at Evan upon hearing him speak again. He was silent again, processing the words. Honestly, he was surprised that he hadn’t started to tear up, being the empath that he was. He supposed it was because he felt so worried and hollow at the moment, not a single tear would form.
Evan would miss him? That… that was a surprise to hear him say but only because Jude was still getting used to the new Evan, the one that talked more about his feelings. In any case, Jude would miss him too. And all the studying they did. Not to mention their other hangouts. “I don’t doubt all that you just said.” Especially since Evan sounded so confident. “I know I’m being stupid by thinking like this.” Jude forced another laugh. “I’m sorry for putting this on you. I think I’m worried because you’re so important to me.” Then something else occurred to him. “If I feel like this in the future… is it okay if I tell you? Do you think I’d annoy you if I did?’’ |
