"Mmhmm," Nyssa said noticing the change in his voice. "So tell me about your family." she said reaching to hold his hand.

"Whatever you feel like telling me," Nyssa said fidgeting with their hands.

"Hmmm, I've told you my mom was in Gryffindor and my dad in Ravenclaw. She stays at home and he works at the Ministry. I don't know either of my grandparents. One set died from dragon pox and the other sort of disowned my mother." Jake said.

"Up to you," Nyssa said. "I'm not going to force you into telling me anything about your family." She could feel herself being lulled to sleep by a soothing quality to his voice. It was also partially because she felt so relax around him and was used to being asleep much earlier than this on the farm.

"I don't want to bore you to sleep," Jake said looking down at her.

"You won't," Nyssa said not entirely convincingly because she had to stifle a small yawn once she had finished her phrase.

"I don't believe you," Jake laughed. He took her hand lacing their fingers. "Sleep if you need to."

Nyssa nodded before sitting up. "I suppose I should. I need to check on Thalia as well."

Jake smiled. "Alright, night Nyssa."

Nyssa stood up then leaned down to kiss him on the cheek. "G'night, Jake." With this she turned to leave the great hall.

Jake watched her go and then made his way back to his own common room.
