Welcome to Gaia! ::

Jayden mistakenly looked down at an angle at her, meeting her gaze. He almost caught himself staring into the sparkling pools of blue once again, but he had used a passerby decoration to divert his attention. As he looked up at the painting he had chosen, he had grown slightly embarassed, a look of pure love in his eyes. He knew that he still liked her, but he couldn't just try again...just like that...with no time in between. It would not work like that. He would have to wait for awhile for another one of those chances. He really hoped it wasn't too long, for he honestly couldn't wait.

The only good thing that came from the kiss is that he now knew what the feeling that he couldn't explain was. It was everything, attraction and emotional connectivity at its finest. It was a tad surprising to him at first. He knew that he thought she was beautiful, and that she was definitely the best girl he would ever meet, but the thing he found surprising was the magitude of the feelings. It was huge, not some small attraction that would stop after a few months. It would last, and he honestly hoped it did, but honestly, he had nothing to worry about, because what he hoped will stay true.

"Ehh...just checking. I mean, it is me and all. Jayden, the kid who trips and falls...all the time. I swear, when I'm on a broom, I have very good balance, but when I'm off my broom, I'm about as balanced as a flamingo," he said, referencing his fall last year going up to the Astronomy tower. That was their first serious connection. Well, the train really was, but the stairs were the most enjoyable.

I think Quiddotch is going to be fun this year. I have gotten a lot better over the summer," he said, smiling at her, somewhat of a twinkle of happiness gleaming within his eyes. He walked with with her, not knowing what to say; that is, until she spoke up. Her words made Jayden laugh. She was so nervous and she honestly shouldn't be.

"You know Tristain, you think entirely too much. You are very good and any team would be luck to have you. You are agile, and quick, a characteristic that is hard to teach. You are fine," he said, sincerity marked in his facial features. She knew he was telling the truth, because he has told her that same fact many times before. It was just a matter of time before she actually believed him.

Jayden smiled at her, but he had met nothing but the back of her head, for she was looking out the window. There was still that feel of awkwardness between them, but it came nowhere near the magnitude that it had about 2 hours ago actually. It was, as a matter of fact, hardly even there, but nonetheless, it was. And it showed itself again whe she asked the second question. Jayden thought about doing something rash, but he wasn't too sure, for the last time, he messed everything up between them. He convinced himself he should give it a shot, but he was a tad indecisive about the subject.

"Uhm...yeah...about that, maybe you...nevermind," he said, convincing himself not to ask the question mid-sentence. He didn't want to ruin the relationship they just restored again. He didn't want to suffer another grueling three weeks without the girl he has really started to like. She was honestly one of the best things about this school. Seeing her sweet, inquisitive face morning, day, and night made the days at Hogwarts so much more...exceptional, enjoyable, and ethereal.

"Oh yes, it should be a lot of fun. We'll get to hang out with all of our friends, outside the class setting of course," he told her, putting his hands in his robe's side pockets.

Jayden looked at her, surprised that she asked him. He alway knew she was the bashful one of the two, but she definitely had confidence right about now. He respected that, and also loved that. He also loved that the question was the same that he was about to ask. He was most definitely going to say yes. He really liked her and was not going to ever say no.

"Of course...we wouldn't want to stick out like a sore thumb," he told her, concealing his real reason for saying yes. He felt like she was doing the same, but that was beyond hi. All he knew was that he wanted to go with her, and that was going to be fulfilled. He had a very Venetian like mask that as sent to him by his brother Josh. Josh had obtained it during his travels and one best believe that Jayden was going to use it.

"Besides, I believe it'll be a lot of fun," he admitted.
