[ She does feel guilty once all is said and done. It's not like he would accept an apology from her this late in the game, however, so her expression does not betray those feelings.
Leave it to Natalie to let her emotions get the better of her time and time again. She doesn't even want to to back to her tower this time - maybe there's somewhere she can go. Not the Astronomy tower, gross. A place for quiet so she can get a hold of herself and just not see him.
She picks up the speed, heels clicking ahead of him, her hand running along the wall until she turns the corner. ]
[ Standing there, he heaves a sigh and lets his head fall back, eyes closed.
He really doesn't want to go back to the tower. The common room is still going to have at least a handful of people around, and he doesn't want to be around much of anyone. Maybe he should sneak out through one of the passages and go to Hogsmeade instead.
...But the formal clothes rules that out. So, where?
The Muggle Studies classroom, he thinks suddenly. There's a bunch of tech in there that's broken, and hardly anyone here except the Muggle-borns even realize it, but it's been bothering him since he started taking classes. Might as well go fix that, he decides, starting forward again. ]
[ He still doesn't look at her, and doesn't slow down. He intends to leave, thank you very much, not stay and get into another fight that'll land him in detention again. ]
[ Natalie shakes her head at her own idiocy because -- well, snogging a boy aggressively in between cursing him isn't exactly healthy for anyone. Best she walks away. ]

Wh - Never mind.
[ Great. Those two words will probably set him off or something. Maybe she can find the Come and Go Room and play piano by herself. ]

Okay, whatever.

[ It's hasty and a little too quiet so Natalie takes off, up the stairs until she's out of sight. ]
