Feeling his arms around her, Valerie smiled against their lips, genuinely surprised by all this. Actually, now that she was kissing him, Valerie was actually superbly happy that he had chosen to take them somewhere more private. This just wouldn't have worked in the common room. Absolutely not.
Valerie couldn't help but continue to bite her lip, she was smiling so incessantly. Did she want to look so excited? When Casey leaned in again, she allowed him to bridge the gap, her hands squeezing his own in anticipation and delight. "Who would have thought, seven years later." She giggled some more, too delighted to keep it in check. Letting one of his hands go, Valerie touched his face and his hair and booped his nose playfully.
"I don't want you to think that now there will be all sorts of expectations. Okay?" She looked around and frowned a little. "Did I ever tell you exactly how jealous I was about the IPods?! It would be so perfect now!"
