It had been a few days since the dance, and Svetlana and Marvie hadn't spoken of the experience. Well, they hadn't spoken much anyways- beyond when they needed to during classes they shared, of course. But, despite the lack of contract between the Lovebirds, the young girl found herself thinking back to it quite often. To the point of losing focus in class bad enough to have her teachers snap at her to pay attention.
After another daydream session rudely interrupted by the History of Magic professor (though, why would she daydream when the boy was there in class with her-) she huffed and slung her bag over her shoulder to head back to Ravenclaw tower to begin on the homework that was weighing down on her good shoulder.

The brunet held the same feelings from the night in the room of requirement; it was starting to get to him. He wasn't playing pranks as often or disrupting class with a little bit of devious fun- he was actually calming down. Marvie's interactions with Svetlana seemed only limited during class since that day- but even so, he showed much more affection in public than they normally did.
Today was especially one of those days as he seemed to have gotten his energy back, climbing up the tower steps in a quick fashion. Eventually he found Svetlana and slowed down, giving a peck on her cheek before taking her bag and slinging it over his shoulder,"Hey Svettie,"

She felt soft lips on her cheek and the weight of her bag lifted from her shoulder, turning a little pink and smiling as she turned her head to look up at Marvie. "Hi~" she said affectionately as they continued their walk together. It might have just been a brief walk in the hallway until they reached the commons, but any time they had together was nice- now, especially.

Marvie shifted the bags into a more comfortable position, now having the energy he had once more from before the bludger incident. But he stayed by her side and started talking in a cheery tone,"So, how you doing so far Svettie? 'Marshblood really took a toll on you- you sleeping well?" Even thought they were apparently 'a thing' now, he still held the same obliviousness from before in certain aspects of their relationship.

"Huh? Oh- yes, I'm sleeping perfectly fine." Not any better or worse than she usually did. Her smile turned up a little at one side nervously. Even if they were 'a thing' she'd still be embarrassed to admit she'd been daydreaming about him. "Just a little unfocused recently. I'm fine."

He chuckled at her response as they stopped by the Ravenclaw door,"Well you should focus a bit more, I wouldn't want you to lose your way," He leaned in to give her a soft kiss before looking at the knocker and answering the usual riddle. Even though their classes were over, it wasn't the end of the day for Marvie; he still had to do some homework, run off to Quidditch practice, then come back to finish up the rest of his work. Right now he had maybe a few free minutes to spend with Svetlana.

The knocker accepted the answer and opened inward for them, Svetlana stepping in first, taking her bag back when Marvie followed. She nodded. "I know. Don't worry, I'll be fine. Just a bit more work on my studies and I'll be back on track." she smiled lightly.

Marvie followed in behind her and nodded,"Well you better..." Despite the little regard he had for his well being, Marvie always worried over others. He walked over to the couch and laid down, sliding one of his text books out to do some homework.

Svetlana shook her head lightly at his over concern. She set her bag down and sat in an armchair across from the couch Marvie had laid himself across. She leaned over and pulled a book out as well, setting it in her lap and staring at it momentarily before opening it.

The two seemed to have wander off into their own work, Marvie trying to finish as much Potions homework as he could while Svetlana was reading her book. There was a silent air between them until Marvie spoke up,"So...what do you wanna do after all this.."

"Hmm?" she looked up, brushing a piece of chocolate hair out of her face. "Oh... I don't know..." strange. They never really... Planned things before. Just sort of went with what came. Spontaneously, you know? Didn't he have quidditch after this until late?

Marvie closed his book for a second and swung his feet around to face her. It was a serious question- something he only briefly thought about since the last time he read a book. "Yeah, I know. But it's sorta gonna fly right by us. I mean, it's not like something's gonna get in the way that we're all gonna get an extra year to think 'bout it*..." Maybe Svetlana was having a good influence to Marvie- making him think rather than go with the flow. Although this was undoubtedly weird for him to show this.

Svetlana marked her page and closed her book as well. She rested her hands on top of it in her lap. "True... I've just never really thought about it... It's never seemed all that close...." she played with the pages of her textbook idly.

Marvie shrugged his shoulders, perhaps just thinking he was being too cautious,"Yeah, I guess you're right.." He leaned back into the couch before realizing the time. "Bloody hell- I gotta go!" The birdie darted up from his seat and ran to the boys dormitory, coming out with a bag that was presumably holding his Quidditch gear. The idiot was late for practice. He rushed out of the room without a word, leaving Svetlana alone.
Several seconds later though, he rushed back in and stopped by her, kissing her. He pulled away after a few seconds and rushed out, calling back to her,"Sorrygoingtobelateloveyoubye!!" Then once again he was out the door and racing onto the field.

Svetlana leaned back as well, sitting up abruptly as Marvie suddenly realized his lateness. He rushed around so quickly she barely had any time to realize what he was doing and where he was going. "Um... Bye..." she called after him as he finally departed.
Because everything they do is a date-*ahem*
