Vanessa noticed that Kiri had noticed that she was looking at them. Oh dear. She hoped it didn't look like she was thinking about them like that. Because she really wasn't. Even though they were both really cute. She did know that Kiri would be perfect For Raiden. They go along so nice, just like she and Miles did.
She smiled at her, trying to make the girl feel less uncomfortable, or however she was feeling really.
"So...are you two looking forward to this year?" She asked, to keep conversation going, and to make it less awkward. The age gap probably didn't help things at all, as they hadn't taken any exams yet, and she was going to be taking the most important exams during this year. At least they could ask her about them. Vanessa giggled, at what he said. It was true that she liked Miles. She liked Miles very much so. "He is a good guy." and that was one of the reasons why she loved him so much. "I don't like mean people or bad people?" Vannie giggled, well she wasn't too sure about that. But if Raiden thought it....it must have been a bit true. "Aww Rai...stop it." Vanessa felt her cheeks blush, and she smiled at him. She wished that this wasn't her last year. | Peeking out from under his arm, Raiden smiled at Vannie Corbette before hiding his eyes from the glaring light again. Looking forward to this year? He always looked forward to going back to Hogwarts. He missed his family, for sure, but he loved being around his friends, and he loved learning new stuff, and everything like that. Plus...
"I can't wait to get back," he sighed, lowering his arm. It was too warm to keep it over his face anymore. He just kept his eyes closed instead; while it didn't keep all the light out, it helped enough. "I missed being around everyone. With Shiro in Japan... the summer was a little boring." Quote:

Raiden's head was heavier than Kiri had expected, but not uncomfortably so. Not at all, in fact.
He was odd to look at from this position - his face this close to hers again. The lively eyes, the black hair... Or maybe it just appeared that way because she'd never actually had a boy use her lap as a pillow. She smiled lightly as he brought up his hand, and part of his face disappeared under it. He really had to be awfully sleepy! "I'll tell you," she said quietly, thinking privately that that was an unlikely event to take place.
Soon, his breathing slowed down. It looked like he might actually fall asleep soon. With no small amount of fascination, Kiri watched his chest move up and down, hoping she wasn't too obvious. Depending on how she moved her head, his breath brushed her cheek.
There was just one problem: What should she do with her own arms? Especially the one on Raiden's side, she had to hold a little awkwardly. Could she just put it on his stomach? No, no, impossible!
She settled for letting it cross her stomach, mimicking Raiden's posture. It came to rest against his cheek, sending shivery sparks up her arm.
Kiri looked up again. She nodded. "Oh yes, I am," she told Vanessa. Just how much of that had to do with the actual school, she didn't know, but she suspected (well, knew) that last year, her response had been less enthusiastic. Part of the reason for that was resting on her lap this very moment! (The rest of it stretching out on the seats next to her.)
"What about you?" | Opening one eye slightly, he looked at Kiri. It already looked like he'd made her uncomfortable. Her arms were all awkward. Taking one of her hands, he moved her arm from its position of oddness and set it across his chest.
"I'm already making you uncomfortable," he said pitifully. "Don't sit all awkward. Put your arms wherever you like, it won't bother me. I'm the one laying on you, after all." He smiled up at her and closed his eye, a breath leaving him in a sigh. "If you're uncomfortable, tell me, Kiri."
He suddenly wasn't quite as sleepy as he had been before... which was odd, because he'd been about to fall asleep just a moment ago. |
