"I forgive you...and hope you will forgive me for putting you in a precarious situation that made you overreact in the first place." She almost said that she would forgive him on the condition that he also forgave her, but forgiveness wasn't meant to be conditional and if he was still upset about it then he was entitled to that...but she had a good hunch that he forgave her too. It was all written into his body language.
Unraveling her arms from her best boy space friend, Anna placed her hands on either side of her and folded her fingers over the edge of the bench while she listened and a smile slowly crept back across her face. "Sage," she repeated, though she was likely to continue referring to her as the pretty Slytherin girl because nicknames stuck for a while with Anna. "That's really...great...sweet, Solomon," she smiled, her words sincere despite feeling an uncomfortable lurch in her stomach that she would be ignoring indefinitely. "Have you told her that you really like her? I think you should and I really did not get a good look BUT is sure looks like she really likes you too." Saying that aloud made her feel loads better about the staircase of thoughts she was spiraling down earlier. There was a reason that Solomon had wanted to do the thing that had been interrupted and that set the whole world right in the moment.
Well, those words now meant that the Hufflepuffle's arms were back around the Slytherin's for a quick squeeze. "There is no way that you having a girlfriend would mean that I don't like you...and I am sure Aurora is the same too," she nodded seriously - yes, she had heard him declare that she was not that BUT, well, it was really just a slip of the tongue - as her arms unraveled again. "But...I am not so sure that she likes us very much...she sure seemed cross that we interrupted." But it was all just a misunderstanding and that could be easily fixed! "Hey," she whispered with a gentle nudge. "I'm happy for you, Solomon. It...it really...must be amazing and special to have someone you like...like you back..." She hadn't meant for a hint of bitterness to slip into her tone, and things were complicated and truly the last of the things she ought to be worrying about at the moment, but it couldn't be helped. There was a confused sort of longing that was manifesting more profoundly than ever before within her and summer had really intensified it. "Can you...introduce me sometime? Me and Aurora? Together or one of us at a time? We can still all laugh together...maybe we can all even laugh about the train!"
