Walking down the hallway, Swan was thankful that she'd been spared the clouds of cupids that seemed to be following some of her fellow students and even some of the teachers - much to their horror, it seemed. The blonde shifted her bag that was slung over her shoulder, the books in it weighing it down considerably, and her eyes scanned the parchment she had in her hand. There were notes scrawled on it, mostly pertaining to whatever homework it was that she needed to get done, but done of it had really sunk in. Other things, and people, were occupying her thoughts at present.

All that in mind, she wasn't really looking where she was going as she walked down the hallway, although she became absently aware of the sound of an acoustic guitar. Swan couldn't tell you a think about music or the styles of play, but she still had a pretty good idea who it was. Turning a corner, she leaned against the wall as she spotted Ren.

"Hi."

Swan was pretty sure the last time she'd kissed someone had been at some ill-advised party she'd attended during the summer break between Fifth and Sixth year. She was also fairly sure that if someone had asked her about this a couple of weeks ago the thought wouldn't have occurred to her. Still, as Quistis had said... sometimes things take you by surprise.

Breaking the kiss, Swan pulled back. "So, what exactly does going out with you entail?"

And she would definitely need to update Tifa and Quistis with this.

Swan pulling back from the kiss caused Ren to quirk an eyebrow at her action but began to laugh a bit at her question. “I don’t know myself half the time,” he admitted, “Whatever happens will happen and I’ll do my best to make sure that both of us enjoy it.”

He paused a bit to emphasise his point by trailing light kisses along the side of her neck, grinning slightly against her skin. “But if it’ll help, I can probably cut down on the smoking when I’m around you. Sounds good?”

He knew that Swan disliked the smoke and that she could probably taste it when he kissed her so, it was a small sacrifice to make. Ren could easily save the cigarettes for his time just hanging out with Genesis or when he was by himself.

Her lips quirked up in a smile. "Then I suppose we're on equal footing," Swan replied. "That sounds like a plan I can deal with."

She smiled as he kissed her neck, taking note that dating someone apparently had its perks. ... Perks that were making her late for class. "Uh, Ren? I need to go..." Taking a step back she smiled apologetically and picked up her bag. "Care to go to Potions?" Shouldering the bag, she tilted her head, indicating that she was going to head down the hall.

And there was the mood kill a la Swan. Ren pulled back to let Swan stand and grab her books and gave a small grin in return. It figures that Swan would still take class seriously which was fine with him. He wasn’t intending on making her sink to his level anyways.

It was really a ridiculous question to ask him. He only had his guitar and his cigarettes in his pocket, he didn’t carry with him any books, rolls of parchments or anything that he needed for said class. But that never stopped him before.

“Trying to turn me into a studious man already, are you?” he said with a small chuckle before grabbing a hold of his guitar case to pull the strap over his shoulders, the guitar resting securely on his back. “If you’re sure that me being there won’t distract you at all, I guess I can join you for class.”

Had she known his thought, Swan would have quite smartly retorted that she knew exactly how to have fun, but that there were some things that needed to be done. And, part of that involved going to Potions. She was fine with being in a relationship, but there were some things that she wouldn't let it get in the way of. Making sure she became an Auror was one of those things.

Swan was pretty well aware of Ren's lax attitude and preparation when it came to class - they had known each other for upward of six years, now. "You can borrow parchment from me if you need to," the blonde offered.

"I wouldn't dream of it," she replied, walking down the corridor. "I thought you might enjoy the chance to tease Professor Howl is all I meant."
