His words only enforced the feelings she was having of two kids agreeing to some forbidden pact. She smiled as one of her hands slipped out of her cardigan, fingers twisting against her lips, "mums the word." She wouldn't tell anyone anything without permission, and she decided that having some secrets was worth it. Although if Silver asked, she wasn't sure where she stood there, she would probably tell him anything he wanted to know, but would he ask?

Dare gave Willow a conspiratorial wink, sure that she was just playing along. He didn't want Silver to know he'd be helping her with Muggle Studies, but he had no problem with Michael knowing. He had no intentions of doing anything inappropriate with her, but the joke amused him. Michael was really uptight about things like that, but then, he couldn't help thinking that Michael still thought he'd leave at the drop of a hat. At least, whenever it had come up that was what it had been.

Willow, "so, what should we do first?" She let her mind drift to the furthest ends of possibilities, the most outrageous things they could do, but probably wouldn't. "Scale the walls of the astronomy tower? Find a way to trap Peeves? Or toilet paper the library," she couldn't help the curl of her lips even as she tried to keep a straight face, there was no way that she was in any way defiling the library.

Dare grinned at Willow's suggestions. He'd been thinking of dancing or going somewhere, but that paled in comparison. "If you want to scale the Astronomy Tower, I am so in," he said. "I know a decent sticking charm, but we'd need a better one for something like that..." He was so much more serious than she'd probably realize, but then, he hadn't realized she was kidding.

Wait, seriously? He wanted to climb the tower? She turned her eyes toward him, looking at him and realizing that he was in fact serious. "I'm sure I could find a better charm someplace in the library." She ran a hand through her hair, imagining climbing the tower, knowing they would probably get in trouble for it, but not able to regret for a moment the thought, the planning, and if it happened the action, not when Silver's brother sat there his face so alight with excitement, contagious in it's desires.

Dare's grin widened. "Sweet," he said, thinking about the actuality of doing something like that. He'd certainly never had before. It was crazy, dangerous, and something highly visible. No less visible than the ceremony, no less dangerous than helping Adara and Emilian, and no less crazy than trying to kiss a guy he'd only just met. "So like, we'll look that up tomorrow or something?" he asked.

She didn't have anything better to do, Willow thought, "yeah. It sounds like a good plan. It'll at least keep my occupied until Silver gets back." There was that strange urge to stick her tongue out again in play, thinking no matter how crazy it sounded they were going to do it. And she was going to be the one to figure out the charming spell that would allow them to do it.

Dare looked out over the lake rather than at Willow, his grin tapering to a smile. He didn't keep track of the time anymore, not when it came to Silver. Not for a long time now. He wondered what his brother had told her, why he was gone. Homework? Illness? Personal issues? At least she hadn't asked. He was fairly sure that Dru had at one point. It was strange after so long to think that his boss had been his brother's girlfriend, if only for a week or two.
"So like, you two are hanging out a lot, or what?" Dare asked at last. If she had to keep occupied while Silver was gone, it sounded like it.

Yeah like a lot, she thought to herself, or something like that. Willow blushed, as she let her silver hair cover her face, curls of it slowly sliding down her arms, she wrapped her arms both around her legs as her gaze followed a direction out to the lake. "Kind of." The first few weeks she'd been here, she'd been lucky to see him in class and he must have been busy outside of class. "He asked me to be his girlfriend a couple of days ago." Right before he'd left.

"Oh, wow. Congratulations," Dare said, his brows rising again in surprise as he looked back from the lake to Willow. He really hadn't expected that, no matter how much he could see his brother going for her. She was a lot more outgoing than he'd have thought Silver would go for. Dru was friendly, but she seemed to like keeping people at a safe distance, too. Willow didn't. Maybe this would go better than that had. Dare certainly hoped so. It would be hard to joke around like this with his brother's ex. He suddenly realized how weird it should be joking around like this with Silver's girlfriend.

Willow raised an eyebrow over her eye as she looked back at Dare, "for what? Congratulations are for things like, birthdays, weddings and babies. " She couldn't help the curve of her lips at the thought that kissing Silver had been amazing, and might be something for congratulations, but she didn't want his brother congratulating them on that. "I'm not even sure what it means. He asked and then he said he had to go away for a week." She shook her head, her eyes dancing at the thought, "I promised him that I wouldn't cheat on him while he was gone though, so no seducing me." She did stick her tongue out at that, there was no way a happily married man would be seducing her.

Dare chuckled. "Are you kidding?" he asked, eyes glittering behind his fringe. "I'm working my ass off not to get you falling at my feet. This is as boring as I get." Had his brother really been stupid enough to ask a girl out before he took off a second time? Apparently all he'd gotten from Dru was that the Head Boy owned him.

Willow chuckled at that thought, "well for boring you're pretty exciting." She tucked a few strands of hair behind her ear. Dare was attractive, and she supposed if he wasn't married, and she didn't find his brother more attractive he might be hard to resist. She waved her hand in front of her face, "did you notice, the temperature just shot up." She shook her head, eyes dancing, her hand fluttering to her head, "it's so hot here."

Dare grinned again at Willow's tease. "It is," he agreed, making a show of tugging at the collar of his shirt. "It's so hot I'm thinking about taking off my coat." She really was an attractive girl, and he started thinking again about drawing her. Last time he'd thought about capturing her bookishness with a hint of this playfulness, but now he thought he'd like to capture the playfulness and the tease in her. His gaze shifted, taking her in from an artistic viewpoint, though his smile didn't fade.

A full bodied laugh escaped Willow's lips, wondering where this side of her was normally. She loved her books, could bury herself in them all day, but this, was fun too. Willow continued on her tease, even though she was to tickled to actually say anything at the moment. She shrugged out of her cardigan, a soft v neck white tee on underneath it. She tilted her head up so the breeze caught up strands of her hair, the breeze a bit chilling, but she had committed. If someone was looking they might have seen the soft lavender curve of her bra underneath the thin tee. Her lips twitched, "much better."
