*(Y/N) POV*
I can't believe he actually apologized.
He's done it before, don't get me wrong, but this one just seemed more....Sincere?
He just had more to say except for "I'm sorry" for once.
It really is true when I say I've missed this, I've missed it all.
It feels a little awkward after we break away from our hug.
Neither of us talk, unsure of what to say as we look away from each other.
"Well um, I'm glad you've finally said something."
"Yeah.."
-His words quietly drift off as he speaks.
"Well..."
He clears his throat before speaking again.
"Are we just going to keep walking aimlessly in the forest or do you want to go somewhere?"
"Ummm."
-I pause as I think.
"Oh! Can we go to hogsmeade?"
"What for? Do you need something from there?"
-He asks.
"Not really, I do want to go to the bookstore there though."
"Alright."
-He agrees, walking along with me.
I'm glad that Tom's with me as I'm doing this, it definitely helps keep my mind off things.
I don't know how this would have gone if he didn't come with me.
He even bought a book of his own.
I got a few of my own as well.
"Just give it to me, I can hold it."
-He states , reaching his hand out as I hold tightly to my books.
"No, I can hold them fine by myself. I'm not a child."
-I mumble, still clutching my books, holding them away from Tom as we make our way out the bookstore.
"Just-"
-He rolls his eyes before finishing his sentence."
"Fine. Is there anywhere else you want to go?"
-He asks, still annoyed.
"Ummmm."
-I think for a moment.
"I don't think so..?"
-I answer slowly, completely sure that there isn't anywhere else I would want to visit.
"Are you hungry? Thirsty?"
-He asks.
"Oh, I guess I am kind of thirsty. I could go for a cafe?"
