"Well of course," Jane said matter-of-factly. "Why wouldn't it? Time doesn't care about humans like us, or anything at all for that matter."

"Time is older than everything. What even is time? How did it come to be?..." Riley continued to ramble.

"Okay, I think that's enough," Jane said in an almost motherly way, though it had a teasing undertone. She patted Riley's arm lightly. "Now you're just babbling."

Riley stopped talking, looking at her with affection. Suddenly, he tensed slightly. "I just realised... I turn seventeen in a few months. Not long. Is that... does it matter..."

"Riley, I turn sixteen before you turn seventeen. And you're only a year ahead of me. I don't think it matters that much," she said, fairly nonchalant.

"Yeah... you're probably right." Riley groaned, flopping down onto his back. "Maybe it's just that I don't want it. Can you imagine me, considered an adult? Me."

"Not at all," Jane replied with relative seriousness. "But adult or not, you'll still be a huge dork," she deadpanned.

"I knowwww." Riley covered his face with his hands. "Imagine me in business attire and all that crud. Can you see me do that? I can't."

Jane laughed, pulling Riley's hands down away from his face. "I think you'd look good in a suit," she told him thoughtfully.

Riley gave her a small smile. "Thanks. So would you. I mean, uh, you'd look good in anything. Even like... a potato sack. Wait, um..." Riley's cheeks got progressively pinker as he tried to explain.

"Gee, thanks, Riley." Jane rolled her eyes good-naturedly, chuckling. "You're not very good at this, are you? But it's cute."

"I'm usually, like, so smooth. Like butter. Except, sometimes it's like the butter has gone hard in the winter, so it's a little more difficult to spread," Riley said thoughtfully. "But I make it work. Like now. It ended up being 'cute', yeah?"

"Riley, you're a mess," she said with a shake of her head, ruffling his hair gently. "But yeah. Cute."

Jane sat at a table in a corner of the library, dozing with her face planted in an open book. She'd stayed up all night revising and reading through her textbooks, which may've done more harm than help.

Riley walked past her table, not noticing at first but then having to do a double-take. "Jane?" he asked, sounding slightly concerned.

The Ravenclaw jerked awake, the book page sticking to her cheek for a moment as she raised her head suddenly. "Mm... What?" she mumbled groggily, rubbing at her eyes. "Is that you, Riley?"

"Yeah, it's me," he replied, pulling out a seat and sitting down next to her. "How long have you been in here, Janey?"

"Don't call me 'Janey', please. And I don't know... Since last night I guess. I've been cramming for the OWLs." Jane stretched and rubbed her sore neck. She must've fallen asleep at an awkward angle.

"Sorry," Riley replied quickly. "But you need a break. C'mon. Let's get out of here."

"Are you sure?" she asked warily, glancing at her notes and textbooks that were strewn all across the tabletop. "I dunno... Where would we even go?" Riley was just lucky, not having any major tests to study for.
