"I love muggles by the way!" She said suddenly and smiled. "I'm not muggle, but I am considered myself as one, as I had never learned magic before I came to Hogwarts." She giggled slightly whilst explaining to Nika. "My parents live like muggles as well. They don't use magic around the house." Alicia looked away for a while and turned back to Nika. "It's weird, I know." She laughed. "But yeah, muggle's stuffs are awesome! I like them." She said in her dreamy voice, thinking of her PS2. She wished that she could bring it to the castle, but apparently she wasn't allowed. "I know how you feel. But look at me." Alicia pointed her hand to herself. "I'm very bad at spells." She nodded to emphasize what she just said. "Even, I fail ACCIO horribly." She laughed, turned her silliness into a joke. "I have a friend who always helped me with spells. But I don't know where he is now. He's gone missing." Alicia confessed. Literally she missed Raven so much, her very first friend in this wizarding world. "So are you in Quidditch team this term?" Ally asked eagerly, still grabbing desserts from the table to eat.

There was no time to bite back the snort of repressed laughter. Grinning, he shook his head a little. "Only you can make excuses for yourself and get away with them just because you're cute. Rarely are they valid."

He offered a wink to let her know he was teasing before reaching over and stealing a small forkful of eggs from her plate. See? Control of distractions. He had them too.

Grinning, waved her fork full of eggs in front of her mouth. "They don't need to be valid if I can get away with them because I'm cute." She waved the fork at him before taking a bite of her food.

She playfully glared at him when he stole some of her eggs. Waving her fork in his direction again before nudging him playfully.

Chuckling, Sabel returned the nudge with his shoulder gently. Didn't want to knock the Hufflepuff off the bench. "I suppose we can give you that."

And he was about to give her another playful nudge when he realized what she was wearing. "Aren't...you cold?"

The nudge had her leaning to the side a bit before she straightened up, giggling.

Glancing down at her pajamas, she considered his question. "I guess....didn't think to grab the robe when coming over here." She'd barely made it out of the common room without flopping onto one of the couches and dozzing back off.

Now that she'd realized it, tank tops probably weren't the best thing to wear to the great hall. Especially in the morning. She grinned back up at him. "A little cold air won't kill me though."

"It won't...but it can't be comfortable." A small frown had his brow creased as he considered her. Personally, it didn't matter to him what she wore, as long as she was comfortable. And cold wasn't comfortable. So in this case it did matter.

Shifting back on the bench a little, he replaced his fork on the table and drew his sweater off. Turning the sleeves right-side-out, he gathered up the hem of the sweater and held it open towards Arya. "Arms out."

She'd went back to eating her eggs, watching him with a slightly perplexed expression as he removed his sweatshirt. Was he hot? She couldn't see how if so.

He was giving his sweatshirt to her? Awwww! She was beaming now, at how SWEET he was. Really, he was too sweet to her. Placing her fork down, she shifted on the bench so that she was facing him, arms out.

When Arya held her arms out, Sabel drew the sweater over her arms and head, working attentively to arrange it around her properly. With a grin, he moved back a little, tugging on some of the baggy fabric. "You are small. I think two of you could fit in there."

When the sweatshirt was properly on her, she wiggled her hands in the sleeves, grinning down at how different it looked on her as opposed to him. "And we'd both be comfortable." She shifted some of the fabric around to make the sweatshirt more comfortable before moving closer for hugs. "Thanks!"

Grinning, Sabel wrapped his arms around her and rubbed her back to try and warm up the sweater a little more for her. "Feel better?"

She snuggled up against him and let her back be rubbed. If allowed she could go back to sleep now. "Much better. Your not cold, are you?" She'd give him her his sweatshirt back if he was.

"Good. Keep it." Suddenly breakfast was forgotten. Snuggling with Arya was just the perfect start to the morning and negated anything he had considered doing. "And I'm good. Thank you."

He didn't have to tell her to keep it, she'd planned on doing so from the minute he'd put it on her. "Thanks." Her eyes sliding close, she rested her head on his chest. This was a very good morning.

"No problem at all." With a smile and a sigh, he rested his cheek on the top of her head, his eyes closing slightly.

It was only when they were nearly shut all the way that he remembered the little package tucked away in the pockets of his sweater. Blinking and drawing back a little, he glanced down at them, a slightly sheepish expression touching his face. "There's uhm...I forgot. Something in there for you." A slight point of his finger had him indicating the pockets just for clarification.

She would have gone back to sleep, would have stayed that way for as long as she possibly could. But it seemed that Sabel had other plans. Brown eyes fluttering open, she looked up at him for a moment, then down at the pockets he was referring to. A smile creeping onto her expression, she pulled a hand away from him and poked the pocket. "For me?" Poke poke.

Smiling, Sabel sat back a little. "Yes, for you." His hand guided hers to the other side of the pocket, where a small box was nestled in the folds of extra fabric.

There was no hiding her excitement now as she let her hand be guided into the pocket where it came in contact with a small box. Pulling it out of the pocket, she peeked up at Sabel briefly to see if she would get hints as to what it was before turning her bright eyes back on the box.

Bitting her bottom lip, she turned it in her hands once, the second time she began to anxiously and excitedly open the small box.

Nika giggled at Ally's sudden out burst of randomness. She couldn't imagine why anyone would love muggles. Even though Nika was pretty much a muggle before she considers them boring. "Me?Quidditch? Haha funny joke." Nika started to laugh lightly. "I can't fly on a broomstick for my life! You should have seen me at our first flying lesson. I was horrid!" Nika wasn't at all embarrassed to admit it either. "Flying looks like so much fun though! So I really want to learn how to fly well so then maybe I would be able to play Quidditch too! I like the sound of keeper. It's a lot like the goalie in football. And I love football!" Nika smiled at her friend. "So Ally, do you play Quidditch?"

He said nothing. Nor did he give any expression that might hint at what he had left in the pocket for her.

There was a nervous twist in his gut as she pulled out the box; an anticipation of fear whether she would like the gift or not.

Arya said nothing when she first opened the box. If it was possible, her expression brightened even more when she looked at her gift. Her smile widened and her brown eyes brightened. She took a moment to examine her gift, let her fingers brush over its surface before she peeked up at Sabel.

The smallest of squeals escaping her as she rose on the bench and wrapped her arms around his neck, being mindful of her gift. "I love it!" It came out as a whisper, but displayed held bit of emotion she was feeling.

A choke of air escaped him in surprise as Arya half glomp-tackled him, his hand snapping behind him onto the bench. Laughing, he wrapped his arms properly around her and gave her a big hug. "I'm glad you like it."

"I love it." She corrected him with a soft kiss. Her eyes drifted back to the box, grinning at her gift. "Its so pretty." Giggle. Who knew Sabel was so good at picking out jewlery... or anything girly. It was a total surprise to the young girl.

Well love was better than like. It was a relief that she liked it, or loved it, so much. Returning the kiss he gave her another squeeze before drawing back a little.

Was this the part where the man was supposed to offer to help put it on? Or was the woman supposed to ask for help? On the one hand asking seemed like he expected her to wear it right then and there, while not asking just seemed somewhat rude. Sometimes, it would be nice to have a one sided coin.

Undecided, he sat there, smiling at her. It seemed the best option for the moment.

Pulling back a bit when he did, she gently tapped the side of the box with her forefinger, considering whether she wanted to wear the necklace now or wait til latter to put it on. Hmmm.

"I think... I'll put this on after I get ready for the party." She looked from the necklace to Sabel with a soft smile. That way, everyone got to see the pretty necklace that he got her. Of course, if he wanted her to put it on now, she would.

"Hi 5 to that!" She flung her hand upwards to make a hi5 with Nika. "I have never played Quidditch myself." She giggled. "I had never thought that you can actually fly with a broomstick. You know, A BROOMSTICK! It's like just in the story books." She blurted out and then giggled again within a second. "Wish I could join Quidditch team next term though." She said, crossing her fingers in front of Nika. "Fingers Crossed!" Alicia grinned. "But then again, I can fly now. I've been attending flying class. It's wicked. Maybe we should play Quidditch sometime. Both of us. Maybe we can ask others too! to teach us how to play Quidditch!" She suggested.
