His question hadn't meant to be loaded, but then he'd done and shifted right into Arthur and now he was all too aware of the way the he was being stared at. His pinks were still pink, but his focus was less on being embarrassed and now on the way Arthur was licking his lip. His pants had already felt a little tight when he was coming up the stairs, but now it was becoming uncomfortable, and he didn't have enough experience with situations like this to know how to manage his own bodily reactions.
(He'd, on more than one occasion, gotten a boner while watching Wright change in the dormitory, but he'd been able to pretend he was interested in his books or a new wand movement he'd been practicing, or anything, but this was... too close for him to pretend like he was doing something else.)
His eyes stayed fixated on Arthur's lips until the silence became uncomfortable. He found Arthur's eyes again, and his heart did a flip; nobody had ever looked at him like that before. Not someone he'd been paying attention to, at least, and not from this close.
"I want to know," he said, a shiver running down his spine.
