Ray smiled at her, watching her cheeks turn pink. "Well, I think so, yeah. It's not as though you have to say anything now, though," he added quickly. "There's no rush."

That only made Desiree blush more. "But what if I want to?" She leaned over and kissed him sweetly for a few moment. "Because, well, I think I do."

Ray reddened, but shrugged modestly, although he was unable to keep a wide smile from spreading across his face. "Well, if you're really set on it, I won't stop you."

"Good." Desiree gave him a kiss and rested her head against his chest. "Because I do love you."

Ray set his arms around her and let out a contented sigh. "I was very much hoping you'd say that."

"Peter...help." Jess had taken out her Defense Against the Dark Arts assignment and was having herself a time trying to find out three supporting examples for her essay. Not that she wasn't into dark arts, she just didn't know how to defend against them, nor did she really care.

Peter, who was writing his potions' homework concentratedly, looked up in surprise. "What? With what?" He sat up and pushed himself off of the bed to walk over to Jess.

"This essay...it's stupid." Jess stuck her tongue out at it and started scratching parts out. "how am I supposed to know all these different types of remedies? They don't have a chart or anything in the book..."

"Oh. Well, er..." Peter read a few lines and leaned over the parchment, writing something just above Jess's cross-out. A few seconds later, he did the same thing with another portion of her essay. "Do you mind if I look over this? Revise it a bit?" he asked Jess, leaning over her to keep writing.

Jess sighed, pretending that she didn't want him to have to do her work even thoug that was the whole idea. "Sure, knock yourself out." She leaned back against him, closing her eyes tiredly and absentmindedly rubbing her stomach.

Peter nodded busily, taking the paper and 'revising,' a.k.a. rewritting the whole thing. "Now, I'm not helping you cheat. You'll be using these as notes later, and since you might miss class, this'll be helpful." These words were more to himself than they were to Jess, however.

Jess made a tired little agreeing sound, though she knew that whatever he wrote would be in her final draft verbatum. "Thanks, love."

Several minutes and seven inches later, Peter rose from the parchment, and handed it back to Jess, yawning. "It was a hard chapter; I agree. You did fairly well, actually. I only made some minor tweaks."

Jess knew for a fact that he was only being nice with his use of the word minor. She looked over the newly revised assignment with one of her grins and rolled it back up, dropping it in her bag and pulling the sheets up around her. "It's cold in here."

"Yeah. D'you need another blanket or something? There's some more tea in the kettle, too, actually." Peter was not trying to be overbearing, or overly worshipping. Everyone knew that Peter was not particularly friendly, and a gentleman more at heart than in his manner. But he was very, very different around Jess.
