Why did you lie?

Harry took a deep breath as he walked out of his bathroom and squared his shoulders as he opened his bedroom door in preparation to face Jade. 

"I am not going anywhere!" Jade stated as soon as he opened the door.

"Why not?" Harry asked, and Jade shrugged.

"I already made it clear I flew down to Ludus to be here with you. So, do not let my effort go to waste," Jade said, and Harry sighed. 

"Jade, this is not a good time." 

"It's not a good time for what exactly?" Jade asked with a slightly raised brow as she folded both arms across her chest. 

"It's not a good time for whatever you are here for," Harry said, and Jade's brows arched even higher.

"And what exactly do you think I'm here for?" Jade asked, and Harry merely stared back at her for some seconds. 

"I don't know. You tell me," Harry said wearily, and Jade's lips twitched with amusement as she took a step towards him.
