He grinned down at her, giving her hand a tight squeeze, almost as if he were trying to shake her from the brief somber mood that had fallen over her. "Whenever you need to get away, why don't you Owl me? We could sneak out together and make a good time of it."

He tilted his head so that he could see her better, and flashed her a brighter smile then before.
"Course, we could always sneak into each others Dorms."
