Was he good now?.... Good.

But "personal reasons"? Really? "You could have warned me, you know. Like wayyyy ahead of time. I could have been prepared. I could have...gotten you something..." Yeah, she said it. So what. She LIKED him. Otherwise, she wouldn't have wasted all that time in that stuffy classroom up in the heavens of Hogwarts.

"Proooomise?" she asked. Though, she wouldn't believe him even then. No one could compare to him. The next professor would hate her. And you know what? GOOD. Cuz she'd probably hate them. Compared.

POUT.

Once back in her original spot, Lexi glanced from Nolan to Maya then back again. Both seemed to be deep in conversation with someone else, so she busied herself with eating a little something while she waited for a break in conversation. Her silence allowed her to think back on the previous school year and all it had brought to her life.

For the most part, this had been the single most non-dramatic year of her life, and for that, she was thankful. The school year had been pretty low key for the most part, which had allowed her to spend a lot of office time visiting with her students. Things had only gotten a bit dramatic at the very end, when Hecate had decided to assign that end-of-term puking assignment. Ew! Oh, and there was that article in Aparecium, but...it had all been made up anyway. In a way, she was thankful that things had been so non-dramatic for her. On the other hand, though, a summer vacation seemed far too long overdue. It'd be an interesting change in scenery.

Then suddenly, her brain decided to switch thoughts on her, and her focus moved from summer vacation to her Gryffindor cubs. Mama Lion sure was proud of them, and even though they hadn't won the house cup, they'd still given Slytherin a good race to the finish line. Her eyes flickered to the Gryffindor table, and she smiled at the entire lot of them.

All of her students had been wonderful, though! She smiled again as she remembered how so many of them had sacrificed Hecate's homework assignment just to stand in front of Lexi's office door and make sure no one puked on it. That had meant so much to her, and she was glad she'd discovered what they'd done, so that she could thank them all in person. Oh, and then there had been the Ravenclaw girl, Grayson, who'd even bought her a ferret for her birthday! On that note, her eyes traveled from table to table, and she glanced appreciatively at all she'd crossed paths with at some point and time.

With a soft sigh, she returned her focus to the immediate happenings, which drew her attention to Ellie Stone. The girl was encouraging Nolan not to die, which caused Lexi to glance back and forth between the Ravenclaw girl and the Divination professor. Was something the matter with Nolan? "Miss Stone, is something wrong?" she asked the girl.
