Astoria listened closely to Calum's voice, having never taken the time to appreciate just how soothing it was to listen to him, and Astoria knew that she could never tire of hearing his words, her name only ever sounded right falling from his lips. When she processed his words, however, Astoria lifted her gaze to meet Calum's once more, her fingers still preoccupied with his hair, because dammit, she was privileged enough to be this close to him and she never wanted to let that opportunity go to waste. Feeling Calum's arm around her waist, Astoria's faint smile grew, almost bashfully, and she smiled to herself when she made her decision. She wanted Calum to call her his, and she wanted to call Calum hers, and if it's what they both wanted, there wasn't another moment to lose. Leaning in, Astoria's cheeks heat up slightly into a faint blush, and she pressed her lips to Calum's, the feeling alone enough to make Astoria feel like it was only them in the room, and when Astoria pulled away, her eyes met Calum's once more, and she smiled. "Does that give you your answer?"
Luke rolled his eyes playfully at Ember, pressing a kiss to her forehead. "Your eyes are enchanting, Ember." Luke murmured into her skin, his own eyes closing in content, because having her in his embrace like this meant so much, Luke wasn't sure how to tell her outright, how she made his heart leap. "The brightest field of sunflowers could never compare to you and your eyes." Luke grinned, knowing he was being slightly cheesy, but not caring, because he wanted her to know that he loved her, and everything that came with her. Watching Ember process his words, Luke's smile softened when he noticed her expression soften, and when Ember closed her eyes, Luke pressed a feather light kiss to her cheek, admiring how her eyelashes brushed against her skin. Ember opened her eyes once more, but Luke stayed in place, his forehead resting gently against her cheek. When Ember confirmed she'd be his, Luke grinned, pulling her closer and pressing another kiss to her lips as his happiness coursed through his veins, grinning. "Bloody hell, Ember, you just made me the happiest man alive."
Euphemia had never anticipated kissing someone to be so intoxicating, and yet, kissing Michael Clifford made Euphemia feel absolutely love drunk. Keeping her forehead rested against Michael's, Euphemia returned his grin, gently wrapping her arms around his neck so she didn't have to part from him yet. When Michael locked his eyes onto her own, Euphemia took a moment to appreciate the little things, such as how Michael's eyes weren't just a set green - she was sure they had flecks of gold too, a true reflection of Michael's heart and soul. "How in God's name did you become so perfect?" Euphemia asked with a smile, but when he spoke, Euphemia listened carefully, intently, the sound of his voice like the finest symphony to her ears. Blinking in surprise to his words, Euphemia toyed with her lower lip, quickly skimming through all of the trouble she could get into, but looking back to Michael, Euphemia squeezed around him gently, smiling as she nodded. "I'll gladly be yours, Michael." She told him, her eyes brightening with her words, because the happiness flooded through her with the knowledge: she had gotten the most beautiful boy in school.
"We best get back. Class will be ending soon." He bit his lip. "Where would you like to meet to brew the Armortentia?" Ashton paused though, as Rowan watched him, and under her gaze, he felt comfortable - he felt no need to shrink himself, or to hide his face or fear for his safety, like he would at home. Rowan had the complete opposite affect on him, and he loved it. His gaze met hers, and he reached to tuck a strand of hair behind her ear. admiring Rowan for the beauty she was, for the beauty she always had been. Ashton took Rowan's smile as an indication that she was happy to have this moment with him, because he was ecstatic to have this moment with her. When Rowan cupped his face, though, Ashton leaned into her touch, his eyes closing over as he just focused on the warmth of her skin against his. Listening carefully to her words, Ashton opened his eyes once more, studying Rowan's face, smiling weakly when he admired every little subtle thing he'd never appreciated before. He was determined to appreciate it now, and forever. When Rowan told him she believed in him, however, Ashton paused. It was the first time Ashton had heard that phrase, from anyone, and he blinked as he felt tears burn in the back of his eyes - was he worthy of her faith? Sniffling, Ashton ducked his head slightly. "Bloody hell, Rowan." He laughed, trying not to show he was crying again. "Thank you, just..." He exhaled a shuddered breath as his emotions got the better of him. "Thank you." He kissed the top of her head, before gently cupping her face to lift her gaze to his, pressing a sweet kiss to her lips. "I've often wondered," Ashton started. "What it would be like to call you mine. I'd love to find out, if you'd allow me." He bit his lip nervously. "If you'd be mine."
Professor Horace Slughorn looked up from the book he was reading, seeing the couples in the back of his classroom and tutting jokingly. "It seems we don't need to brew Armortentia. Love seems to be in the air already."
