So he had three choices. One, he could cast a warming charm on her. Two, he could give in and move over. Three, he could give up. Well, he wasn't in the mood for giving up, and he was willing to give a little to get a little. Her hand touching the fabric of the couch made it ever so more inviting. "I can deliver warmth too." He kept smiling as he got up shifted over and attempted to encircle the lovely young woman with he heavily lined leather jacket.

Pleased that he took her hint and brought himself to her Kat rewarded him by curling in to his warm coat and there for him. "Hmmmm" she purred against him tipping her head back so she could see his face. "Thank you" she said reaching up and just brushing a bit of the hair from his face "You are very ho...Warm" she told him coyly.

It wasn't just talk or a ploy to get him to come over. She was very cold and he could feel his warmth entering her body...her well proportioned and shaped...he had to get some semblance of control over the situation, or his mind would be coasting in the gutter pretty soon. "Is that better?" he gave her a gentle squeeze. Not only was she good looking, but he hair had such a pleasant scent. He couldn't place it, but it was lovely. "I hope you're comfortable?"

Kat stiffened as he gave her a squeeze suddenly realizing just where she had gotten herself. Wrapped in some boy she had known for less then an hours coat. Now she wasn't sure this was such a bad place to be but she also wasn't really sure what Mr. Suave would think his intentions could be. Deciding that since he hadn't walked anything further then she wanted or really even as far as she might want that she might as well keep playing along with the game.
Leaning just a little away from him so that if he wanted her back that close he would have to pull her there she raised a perfect eyebrow and spoke "Well I have been less comfortable" she said lowering the brow "but then who's to say I haven't been more comfortable" she finished with a wink, not really taking in all the connotation the last statement might hold to the more experienced listener.

He felt her slight recoil at his attempt to squeeze her close. He didn't want to drive her away, so he thought that maybe she just needed a little space.
He listened in wrapped attention as she parted her lovely lips to impart a message for him, but was befuddled as to the exact meaning of her paradoxical statement. So was he the middle ground in comfort or up toward the top of her comfort-a-meter? His confusion couldn't grace his face, or his weakness would be reveiled...wait a second. He didn't have any weakness for girls. Well, except for their natural charms, but I digress.
"Where are you from Kat?" That seemed calm enough of a question.

Kat relaxed a little as he asked the next question this was one she could field easily and still keep her cool, something she was worried she was losing. "Fabulous London" she answered in a slightly saucy tone "You?" she returned as she flicked her hair over her shoulder in a perfected move known to make most boys follow her like lost dogs, or at least look at her a little longer then needed.

Maybe his question was not so easily answered by himself. He'd try to talk her up and not over talk his nearly 'nomadic' upbringing. "I've lived in a lot of places around the world, but my family's from Northumberland. London, I love London. So many people, so many things to do, sences to explore..." he started to day dream of the two of them taking over London and making it their own. They would be fierce.

"So many stores" Kat carried on as she twirled a loose strand of her brown hair mindlessly "But alas we are not in longer in London are we?" she told him deciding this subject was a little boring and she decided that they should move back to better ones...like Fabulous her. "Tell me something interesting" she told him stopping her little twirls and sliding her fingers from her hair slowly letting the hand fall so that just the tips of her fingers were brushing his leg.

He had trouble thinking of something interesting to tell Kat, because the contact of her fingers with his leg was interrupting the electrical waves in his brain. "Something interesting...I know how to ride a flying carpet...I rode a giant scorpion...oh that stuff is all boring. I met this gorgeous girl once and her name was Kat. She was very beautiful, but very mysterious." He hoped that the bait he'd laid in his comment would bring her out of her shell and get her talking. He had to know if he had a chance with this girl or not, but he didn't mind the company...not one little bit.

Oh now he was talking her language Kat thought to herself as he listed her as his something interesting. She was bored and young and now seemed like a good time to let the this little flirtation free for a bit. Putting her haughtily little display aside she decided it would be good to play kitten for a while. She knew the ice queen thing couldn't be used all the time and bait and switch was just the way to keep them interested.
Looking up a him through her long lashes in that manner girls have that grants them untold power over most boys she let a slow smile spread over her face "Now I find that very very interesting" she purred "But she isn't so mysterious is she?" she teased raising one eyebrow and letting it down again. All the while gently ticking her finger tips across his leg.

Her nature did seem fairly transparent to him, but her end goal and origin were still a mystery to him. However, he wouldn't let on. "She seems to be quite the mystery, but one that is definitely worth investigating. But tell me Kat, how long have you known that you're beautiful?" He brought her close again and gently took her tickling hand in his. Her bravado could only be matched with bravado, otherwise he'd end up out on the patio to cool off after she left.

Kat rolled her eyes at his next coment but alowed him to pull her close and to take her hand "Since I was 3 and the man at the candy store gave me free gummy bears" she told him mater of factly "How long have you been trying to be Charming?" she tossed back giving his hand an oh so slight squeeze as she did so.

"Well to be completely honest with you princess," He stole a glance at his watch and continued, "for the last four minutes or so." The light of his countenance became more somber, "You see Kat, I'm really not that accustomed to talking with girls, but your beauty inspires a sense of courage with in me that must be expressed." He teased her hair "There's something special about you Kat. Your radiance is only matched by your wit." Feeling that his accolades were far from over he decided to give her some room to talk.

Good thing Acama couldn't cook worth a damn and decided to skip lunch, otherwise he would have hurled all over the floor. Romance was not one of his strong suits, but even he knew the garbage spewing out the kid's mouth wasn't going to get him anywhere.
There's something special about you cat. Your radiance is only matched by your wit.
"Your cheesiness is only matched by your inability to pick up on social cues.." he stated callously. "She doesn't seem that into you, my friend. Maybe you should try moving on to some other Slytherin. They're chock full of bimbos.." he yawned from his seat not too far from them, and flipped through the pages of a book he borrowed from a friend.

Jacob's first impression was to give the intruder a hex worth at least a week of his peasant rations. He tried to excuse himself to Kat, but the boy's comments weren't worth standing for. "Pardon me Kat, It pains me that you should suffer such affronts from uncouth speech."
He redirected his speech to the intruder (Acama) and spoke with a calm yet subtly sarcastic tone, "Well, well I didn't know that someone could be that infectiously dimwitted and jealous while injecting their miss guided yet highly subjective comments into someone else's business. Miss Katerina has indeed left several social cues, though you may not have been sufficiently perceptive to distinguish their true intent. She is extremely confident that she's beautiful, but she also enjoys hearing it. The coolness that your unobservant eyes detect is her desire to be in control of the situation. So not only is she beautiful but she enjoys being in command of the situation, but doesn't want someone to simply walk on. Perhaps she does desire some resistance to her overwhelming charms. And as for your comment regarding the moral disposition of the ladies in Slytherin...well that is not only false but rude." He let his confidence exude while his statements steep.
