Nononono. She wasn't supposed to say things like that. There was a script ; she had to tell him about Sirius.
He watched her face carefully, the lines on his face furrowing slightly. He wondered just how far she would go with this.
"None? I admit it sort of took me by surprise. And I uh, yeah I do,"
He focused on a knot on the table before meeting her eyes, his gaze hovering slightly on a spot above her lips before moving to just above her left ear. One thing he had learned from Sirius Black was the art of flirting. Or how to sort of flirt. Either she would get it or think he had some sort of insect in his eye. A charming choice.
"Its one of the reasons I asked you. I want to..I was wondering..Would you let me?" There, his ace was sitting on the table and he swallowed hard and carefully composed her face.
He waited for the expected line of 'I'm sorry but I am snogging Sirius on a full time basis and yes, we should have told you. Here, have a chocolate bar and our profuse apologies for keeping this from you.' Scripts were nice. Scrips made everything better.
