Gellert immediately embraced Krystal. This was the most touching thing he's ever heard. He really appreciated Krystal and this made him love her even more. If he could, he'd definitely kiss her but this wasn't something he was willing to risk as of now. Krystal stayed by his side until he fell asleep. Krystal made sure to leave a kiss on his forehead which made him smile in his sleep before heading back to her room to sleep. The next morning, Gellert woke up pretty late. He slept in that day due to being exhausted from last night. He laid in his bed, thinking back to last night. His mind went back to how Krystal was there for him, how she made him feel loved, how she left a kiss on his forehead. Its then that he realized what she was wearing. She was in her pyjamas when he hugged her without a shirt on. A mad blush appeared on his face when he noticed that she may not have been wearing anything under her pyjamas since it would be uncomfortable to sleep in. He got back up and looked in a drawer for something he had bought for Krystal. It was a stunning emerald ring that he was planning on giving to her for Christmas. He got dressed before heading down to the kitchen where he found Krystal in a beautiful outfit, baking with Queenie.

Gellert: Good morning.

Vinda: Good morning sir. Ms. Heisenberg told us that you'd probably sleep in.

Gellert: Thank you Krystal.

Krystal: Anytime.

Credence: *Runs in* Queenie, Vinda, Sir Dumbledore, Ms. McGonagall and Sir Snape are asking for your help. Abernathy, I need your help.

Queenie: Krystal, would you be alright to continue on your own?

Krystal: I should be good. Go to them.

Everyone leaves Krystal and Gellert alone in the kitchen. Gellert takes the chance to hug Krystal from behind, placing his head on her shoulder while Krystal was mixing the batter for a cake.

Krystal: How are you feeling?

Gellert: Much better thanks to you. *kisses Krystal's cheek*

Krystal blushes from the kiss, making Gellert chuckle. Krystal stopped stirring before turning to Gellert.

Krystal: Here, try this.

Krystal picked up the spoon with batter before pointing it at Gellert who used his finger to swipe a bit and put it in his mouth, sucking his finger to make sure he got it all. Krystal's eyes widen at that sight especially when he let out a moan of satisfaction from the taste. Krystal smiles when she notices a smudge of batter on his lip. She held his face before wiping his lip with her thumb, making Gellert freeze. His eyes darken at the sight of Krystal sucking the batter off her thumb. She was such a tease but he loved it. Before he could make a move, Albus walked in with Minerva by his side. The two of them could feel the tension between Krystal and Gellert which they knew was a good kind of tension. Gellert sat down at a stool at the island, watching Krystal bake and joke around with everyone when they all entered the kitchen. Gellert became their tester which made him keep in mind that he has to keep an eye on what he ate so that he doesn't gain too much weight since the food Krystal was making were incredibly delicious. Eventually, Krystal decided to take a break by taking a stroll around the outside of Nurmengard. Krystal grabbed her maroon coat before heading out.

Gellert joined Krystal as she decided to take a stroll in town. She had her arm linked with Gellert's as they made their way. Gellert decided to take her into the woods where he used to walk to when he was stressed. Gellert picked up a flower before placing it behind her ear. When they made it back to Nurmengard, Krystal placed the flower in her journal to preserve it. Time went on and night came. Everyone left to head to bed while Krystal sat in the hall by the fireplace. She had a book open to read when the door to the room opened. She turned her head to find Gellert standing there without his coat or vest. He quietly made his way towards Krystal before speaking up rather quietly.

Gellert: Krystal, what are you doing still up?

Krystal: I was reading. I didn't feel sleepy yet so I decided to do something in the meanwhile.

Gellert: May I? *gestures to couch*

Krystal: Please do.

Gellert takes a seat beside Krystal, conjuring up two cups of tea for before handing one to Krystal which she gladly accepted. She hesitantly rested her head on Gellert's shoulder which did make him tense up at first before he got comfortable. After Krystal placed her cup down, Gellert decided to catch Krystal off guard and do something very out of character. He leaned his back against the armrest with one leg on the couch before pulling Krystal by the waist to sit between his legs, leaning back against him. Krystal froze at the sudden change of position but calmed when Gellert wrapped his arms around her waist.

Gellert: What type of book are you reading?

Krystal: It's a mystery novel. I have the whole series.

Gellert: So, you like that kind of genre?

Krystal: Well, I like all types of books. Anything is intriguing to me.

Gellert: I see. There's something I'd like to ask but it may be hard to answer...

Krystal: Ask away.
