Pre-Curfew Explorations
The Gryffindor boy was a little unsure as well. It was the first time he approached a girl with those kinds of feelings and not to only make friends.
Darius had never been the kind of child who rejected girls, nor he disgusted them, unlike most boys of his age. Usually, boys used to play sports with other boys, but he didn't.
When he attended muggle elementary school he would have loved to play with girls, but unfortunately, most of them didn't even want to talk with him. They just left him alone to play with dolls by himself.
That's where his insecurity of girls was born. He was just afraid they would have rejected him and that was definitely the case.
He wasn't a complete idiot, he understood the girls were in a high discomfort around him and his smile slowly turned into a desolate frown. He sighed deeply and those dreamy feelings were soon gone. He realized that maybe he just messed things up, as usual. He just couldn't help but listen to his heart instead of his mind most of the time, that often got him in trouble.
"Uhm... Yes, sure, it's okay. I'll leave you alone now," He said in a low voice, definitely not cheerful nor anxious "I'm sorry... Goodnight, girls" He finally said, smiling one last time before turning around and leaving those two Slytherins by themselves.
As his steps got farther and farther, his feelings for the black haired girl slowly vanished. He was usually a really determined boy, who would have fought for his desires and dreams, but that time he just decided to give up. Come on, he couldn't lose time with girls! Maybe he finally decided to listen to his head, once and for all.
Or maybe he knew, deep inside, that his heart was already taken by someone else. Who knows.
He stared at the end of the empty corridor, realizing just now he forgot to ask where the bathroom was.

Pre-Curfew Explorations
Nadea nodded along while Luella spoke, folding her arms as she as she was now becoming very defensive and not backing up Luella's stuttering with a little more strength. All of this subconsciously. Near the end, Nadea closed her eyes and nodded her head, the words Luella was speaking sounded like music to her ears.
Yet, she was surprised. The boy who wandered towards them in the night like a bug towards a lumos charm, had simply decided to say goodnight and walk away. She watched him go, not even questioning her own actions. Why should she? Nadea did the right thing. If it weren't for her, Luella might even be drooling by now. She had known that bringing up the curfew was manipulating Luella, but she too was beginning to worry about the curfew too. It wouldn't be long now before teachers would be patrolling the corridors.
"Goodnight," she nearly whispered as he parted, then turned and lowered her gaze to her feet. "Let's go back to our room, Luella," Nadea smiled, hugging herself from the chill that ran through the corridors. She was hoping her bed would be nice and cosy, it looked like it was. She looked at her friend, then humbly, tiredly smiled.

Pre-Curfew Explorations
Luella said little on their way back to the dorm, which wasn't actually all that hard considering they'd only managed to make it like 30 feet away. She was a bit bummed about that, but figured she could always look around later. They would, after all, be there for the entire term. Luella clung to Nadea's arm on the way back without even realizing. She wasn't even really scared, unless you counted the possibility that they were breaking curfew. Luella highly doubted this, though, figuring that that conversation with Darius was definitely not that long.
Luella said nothing of how rude she thought Nadea had been back there, largely because she didn't want that treatmant herself, and suspected Nadea may just be the evil Slytherin stereotype that she was so paranoid about. She couldn't actually blame her anyway, as she was a bit weirded out herself, but at least she wasn't rude. Luella dreaded returning to her Common Room, half hoping Nadea would forget the password and they could just sleep in the halls or something. Of course then they'd be breaking rules, so Luella shoved those thoughts away. She hoped that, at the very least, Marcus was asleep by now. She had a very deep and probably undeserved hatred of him, for one reason or another.
