"Just know," he sighed, hugging her even closer to him and kissing her warmly - grateful that she isn't upset - before continueing, "that it's just as hard on me."

"I know.. and I'm not angry nor do I love you any less. We have our entire lives ahead of us and we'll always be together, so there's plenty of time for us to go that next step and make love to one-another. I know that when you feel it's right between us, we'll take that step. Until then, I'm going to keep kissing you and loving you just as much, no matter what does or doesn't happen," Leane replied softly with a smile before kissing him tenderly, fully, and deeply.

Coming to a halt, Fynn slowly released her as they continued kissing, needing his arms to envelop her completely in a warm, tight, loving embrace. Breathing through his nose, he allowed the kiss to linger for quite a while before pulling back. "Thank you," he replied, his voice thick with emotion, "I feel the same way."

Leane smiled as she stood on her toes, her hands wrapped around Fynn's waist, caressing his bare skin as she spoke softly, "I know, and it's how I truly feel as well. But it still doesn't mean that I'll make it easy and let it drop just like that," she added teasingly with a wink before kissing him once more, "I love you Fynn, and all joking aside, I know I'm not making it any easier for you. But I promise, I don't expect anything more from you than your warm embrace and you sweet kisses. And the occasional night together in the room of requirements, of course," she added with a laugh.

Before he could respond, Leane placed a tender kiss upon his lips and whispered softly, "Only so I can sleep beside you. It's too lonely in my dorm, I like having you near now that I have you."

With a smile, he arched his neck down to place a series of kisses on her neck. As he looked back up, he rested his palm against her cheek, his thumb caressing her lower lip before placing a kiss on it. "The first thing I want to see when I wake up is your face." A warm blush colours the bridge of his nose as he admits, "I know it sounds dorky, but, it's always been that way. It still is."

Leane smiled and placed a gentle kiss upon his blushing nose, "It may be dorky, but it's one of the reasons I first fell in love with you. Besides, if thinking things such as that makes you dorky, then I must be dorky too because I feel the exact same way when it comes to you."

Letting out a quiet laugh, Fynn wrapped his arms tighter around her, hugging Leane to his chest, with her chin automatically being pressed against his shoulder. "Then we're a couple of dorks. Now, you should go in."

Giving Fynn one last hug and a kiss on the cheek, Leane pulled away from the embrace and placed a kiss upon his lips. "I'll be right back, make sure the goblets are ready for me 'cause we'll have to be quick. If we aren't they'll confiscate it from me and I'll be forced to buy more from Diagon Alley, which will completely dip into my Muggle-book-fund," Leane whispered softly as she buttoned Fynn's shirt.

Finishing his shirt, Leane moved her hair over her shoulder, turned around, and lifted her shirt, revealing her slender cream back and an unhooked bra. "But before I go into the common room, fix my bra for me. You can unhook it again later, but for now it might look suspicious," Leane teased as she looked up at him over her shoulder and winked.

Giving her a mock-glare, he reached out to her back to close the clasps again, caressing over her spine with the back of his fingers before doing so. "I could just buy it instead, though. I don't have any Muggle money, but I've got plenty of our money."

Leane shook her head as she fixed her shirt and turned around to face Fynn, "I would never let you pay for my potions! Besides, I have almost half the amount left from my allowance this month anyway, so I could always just borrow the remaining half from Josh and pay him back next month. It'd be as shame to waist all that money though.. I've been itching to get the Greek Mythology book they have on Persephone and Hades.. Ah well, better to put that book off for a month than to have my parents down my and Josh's throats! I'd hate to have to explain my being engaged before I even turn 16 when they're furious with one of us over some prank we pulled," Leane rambled as she wrapped her arms around Fynn's waist.

Pulling him close, she placed a tender kiss upon his lips and mumured "I'll be right back" softly before slipping down the hall and into the common room.

Josh, who had come in only moments before, being with Kalli the entire time, laughed as he saw Leane slink in, "Staying here tonight?"

Leane rolled her eyes, "Of course, you dolt. I'm just picking up a few things, I'll be back later though."

Josh laughed as Leane darted past him, catching her arm before she got far, "Hey, I've given things a lot of thought. You needn't worry, Lee, I'll give Fynn a chance - a real chance. But only one, he messes up once and I won't forgive him again, alright?"

Leane nodded as she hugged him tight, "Thanks Josh.. I really appreciate it."

Smiling, Leane hurried to her dormitory while Josh headed off to his.

Quietly slipping through the dark, Leane quickly found her trunk and dug through her belongings, finding the vial of Amortentia hidden in the back corner. Removing it from her trunk and slipping it into her cloak pocket, Leane closed her trunk and darted quietly out of the dormitory and through the common room. Slipping out the door Leane grinned at Fynn and produced the Vial, "Goblets ready, dearest?"

As Leane spoke with her brother, Fynn had calmly strolled back the way they had come, to pick up the goblets that Leane had dropped earlier. So when Leane came out again, Fynn was still a couple of feet away, smiling broadly at the sight of her. "Ready," he nodded, coming to a halt in front of her and holding out the two goblets that had already been resupplied with pumpkin juice.

Leane took the vial from her pocket and placed a couple drops into each glass, "Stir them until the liquid mixes together and no trace is shown, I'll go put this away."

In moments she was gone and the vial was safely back into her trunk. Emerging from the common room shortly after, Leane bit her lower lip as it finally dawned on her that they'd have to go to Madam Pomfrey shortly after giving the goblets to Professor Snape.

"Fynn.. you don't think Pomfrey would be able to tell if we've actually had the potion.. would she? I mean... if she could... we'd..." Leane began with a blush.

"I don't think so," Fynns' reassuring smile had a hint of dissapointment in them as he was still stirring the liquid in the goblets while using his wand. "Amortentia is a rather elaborate potion that isn't easy to detect, from what I remember. It only tastes somewhat sweetly, which is why they put it in things like liquor or juice that have a natural sweet taste."

Leane sighed with relief, "Good.. I'd hate to think what we would have done had we been forced to actually drink it.. We'd most likely end up going to.." she began, but let the sentence taper off as a blush crept into her cheeks.

"Snape should be in his office, let's bring them there and then head to Pomfrey's," Leane added hurriedly.

He couldn't help but laugh as Leane blushed, and with an affectionate chuckle he offered one of the goblets to her. "I wouldn't recommend it, but we could always try it for the sake of knowledge." Fynn sniffed the juice for a moment, making a face as he added, "Though sweet things aren't really to my liking. C'mon."

Leane's blush deepened as she poked him in the chest and stammered, "F-Fynn MacMillan, you know v-very well if we drank this we'd end up i-in the Room of Requirements before we even g-got to Professor Snape's Office!"

Grinning, Leane teased as she brought the goblet to her lips, but not taking a drink quite yet, "Unless that's your intention, my dear Fynn."

Though smiling, Fynn's hand immediatly covered up the goblets opening, creating a barricade between the liquid and Leane's mouth. "I was just teasing, Lee. Besides," he added with a wicked grin, "I really doubt if we could even make it to the Room of Requirements. I don't think we'd even manage to summon it."

Leane laughed as she placed a tender kiss upon his hand before lowering the cup from her lips, "I think you might be right. We'd best wait until we're closer," she teased with a grin before moving the goblet to her other hand and slipping her now freed hand around Fynn's neck, her hand slipping into his hair as she stood on her toes to place a deep, tender kiss upon his lips.

"We'd better get going," she whispered softly against his lips before kissing him once more. Leaning back onto the flat of her foot, Leane smiled at Fynn before slipping her hand into his, "Ready to face Snape and Pomfrey?"

Squeezing her hand as he gave her conspiratorial smile, he nodded, taking the time to lean in for another kiss. "As ready as I'll ever be." He kissed her again, this time taking her lower lip between his lips for a moment as he pulled away. "You do the talking, I'll just smile and nod."

Leane laughed as she gently squeezed his hand and teased, "It's a good thing you have me, dearest, because you're absolutely useless in the Getting Out of Predicaments Department!"

After placing a tender kiss upon his lips, she grinned and murmured softly against them, "I can't say I mind getting us out of our little predicaments, however, since they're such fun to get into."

"I love you," she whispered softly before beginning to kiss him again, deepening each kiss as she stood on her toes and leaned against him.

"Might I add, though," he smiled as he answered her kisses, following up with some of his own, the hand that was holding hers now resting on her hip to help balance her. He continued only after giving her three more kisses, "That I wouldn't be in any predicament if it wasn't because of you? But I'm glad you don't mind."

Leane chuckled softly as she looped her arm around his neck, pulling herself closer as she teased, "Mmm, that may be, but are you really against it Fynn?" After murmuring his name softly, Leane placed a long, tender kiss upon his lips - her tongue slipping between his lips briefly as she tilted her head slightly to deepen the kiss.

"However," Leane began as she pulled back and broke away from his grasp, and walking away casually as she peeked over her shoulder and continued with a teasing smirk, "If you really are that against it, I suppose we'd better go our separate ways now, hm?"

"Idiot," he mutters, following right behind her as she walked away. "You know better then that." The tip of his thumb softly runs over her lower lip as he adds, "Even if it was difficult for me, I'd just grow to accept it."

His lips follow his thumbs in a gentle kiss, his open lips hovering lightly over her lips before closing on them. "Now let's go," he smiles - the left corner of his lip rising in a crooked grin - after breaking away from the kiss. "I'd be a bad boyfriend if I brought you 'home' after curfew."

Leane laughed as she wrapped her free hand around his neck and placed a tender kiss upon his lips, "Curfew? We've already kicked that rule to the curb, haven't we? Besides, personally? I'd rather you take me home much after curfew," she teased with a wicked grin as she took his hand and led him back down the hallway, heading towards Professor Snape's Office.

"And get into another mess with your brother?" Fynn grinned at her, lowering his voice as they neared the professors' office. "I'd rather not."
