HP: Hogwarts, but pro-generation

Chapter 139 Sleepless Night

Xia uttered "Ah" softly, turned her head, looked Sirius up and down, and raised her eyebrows slightly: "Really?"

Sirius, feeling a little embarrassed by Xia's gaze, touched the tip of his nose. His tone was not as natural as before. He said "hmm" as an answer to Xia's question.

"That's great!" Xia's attitude changed quickly, and she returned to her usual cheerful tone, "Thank you for answering my question."

Sirius raised the corners of his lips slightly, and originally wanted to tell Xia that she didn't have to say thank you to him at any time, but his voice still dissipated in the air, and the words he wanted to say were ultimately lost in the vast universe.

His grey pupils suddenly dilated and his whole body tensed up in an instant. He seemed to be nailed to the spot and lost all ability to move. Sirius felt as if he had lost the ability to perceive the outside world, but the gentle itch in his ears told him that this was not the case. The soft and delicate feeling made Sirius involuntarily want to tilt his head to one side. Sirius' heart skipped a beat and his breathing stopped for a moment. Shock and expectation appeared in his refocused eyes.

It’s too close, really too close!

Sirius screamed silently in his heart. He lowered his eyes, and all he could see was the soft silver-white hair, which almost filled his entire field of vision. Some of the hair fluttering in the wind swept across his collarbone. Now, he only needed to slightly tilt his head to easily kiss Xia's earlobe. The bright sky-blue eyes were mostly covered because of her close posture. When she leaned close to his ear to speak, Sirius could feel the warm breath on his neck. He could even feel the tip of Xia's nose rubbing against his earlobe.

This feeling was really terrible. Sirius smiled bitterly in his heart. He tried his best to control his slightly numb body and didn't dare to show any abnormality. But deep in his heart, there was still an impulse that was hard to ignore, rolling and boiling in his heart, driving Sirius to want more. He wanted to reach out and embrace the person in front of him, want to feel her temperature, want to touch her hair, want to kiss her eyes, and even want to...

Stop, stop now! Sirius, don't think about it anymore! Sirius alerted himself, he closed his eyes, and clenched his hands into fists at his sides, as if he wanted to calm his restless heart in this way, but the faint itching left in his ears and the clear voice that kept echoing in his mind prevented Sirius from doing so.

Boys of this age are taller than girls. In order to get close to Sirius's ear, Xia had to stand on tiptoe. There was no support point beside her to keep her body steady. Although she could reach out and grab Sirius' arm, Xia didn't do that. From a distance, it looked like she was bullying Sirius, and she put her hands behind her back, which made her look even more arrogant.

Only Xia knew that it was not easy for her to maintain balance. Sirius noticed that Xia's body was shaking slightly, and he laughed secretly in his heart. She didn't know to grab his arm even though she couldn't stand steadily. Sirius loosened his fist and stretched out his hands ready to catch Xia at any time. However, Xia seemed to have expected that she would lose her balance. She had already prepared for it. With a quick and light turn, Xia left Sirius' side and then stood firm.

Sirius stretched out his hand and immediately retracted it. He wanted to say something to Xia, wanted to ask her the meaning of her action of leaning closer to him just now. To be frank, he actually wanted to ask what Xia meant to him, but Xia did not give him the chance. She stood in the moonlight, smiled at Sirius, then turned and left the terrace.

Sirius, who was left alone on the terrace, felt uncomfortable. He had too many questions. Except for the words "See you tomorrow" that Xia whispered in his ear, Sirius wanted to know everything else. Why did she suddenly become so intimate? Did something happen? Did someone teach her something? Did she know what it meant to do this? If she knew, did it mean that she had the same feelings for him, just like he did for her?

Sirius felt his heart in a mess, he watched Xia's figure gradually disappearing, which meant he lost the opportunity to ask questions. Sirius slowly turned around and propped his elbows on the balcony railing. He covered his hot cheek with one hand and placed the other hand on Xia's earlobe. The remaining warmth on his ear told him that it was not an illusion.

That's too bad, Sylvia.

He thought to himself that everything happened too fast, leaving no room for reaction. He had not yet gotten out of the situation. He was immersed in the scene, and his mind was full of the bright smile of Xia when he was about to speak. Sirius could swear that from that moment on, his ears had turned red.

That's so unfair, Sylvia.

This was the nth time that Sirius had sighed silently in his heart. Silas stayed outside for a long time. The moon seemed to have risen a little. It had been a while since Xia left the terrace, but Sirius still hadn't calmed down. The moon, covered by clouds, slightly revealed a corner, as if trying to peek at the boy who was destined to have trouble sleeping.

That's too bad, Sylvia.

Sirius was not the only one who was shouting in his heart. Xia, who had left the terrace, was also feeling uncomfortable. She entered the room and leaned against the closed door. The scene just now kept playing in her mind, as if reminding her frame by frame what she had just done.

Xia slowly slid down to sit on the ground, buried her face between her bent legs, and her hands unconsciously tangled her falling hair. Her heart was also in a mess, Xia couldn't figure out why she suddenly... Well, Xia had to admit that she just wanted to see what Sirius looked like when he showed a panic expression.

But she didn't expect that she would actually run away. Thinking of her panicked steps when she quickly walked through the corridor, Xia could only secretly pray in her heart that Sirius didn't see it all. Hot air rushed to Xia's face. She was a little annoyed by her impulsiveness. The moment she got close to Sirius, she had the idea of ​​retreating. Fortunately, she finally gritted her teeth and finished everything, and didn't show her cowardice in front of Sirius. However, Xia realized at this moment that she didn't seem to appreciate Sirius's expression at that time, but that was her original purpose!

Xia exhaled quietly, thinking that maybe it was a good thing that she didn't see it. What if the development later couldn't be controlled? After all, if anyone saw a handsome face showing a panic expression in front of them, they would have some bad thoughts.

That would be a foul, Sylvia.

In her heart, Xia warned herself not to let her imagination run wild. She raised her head from between her legs and looked out through the window that was only covered with a layer of gauze. Xia realized that it was already late. She took a few deep breaths and tried to regulate her still violently beating heart. She climbed onto the bed and covered her head with the quilt, trying to isolate all her senses in this way. She silently said to herself that she had already done it, so what was there to regret? Xia kept convincing herself that she would definitely not be the one who performed the most embarrassingly! Soon, the sound of even breathing came from under the quilt.

And today is destined to be a sleepless night for one person.
