It wasn't a big deal; he just needed a different memory.
When she shook his arm he finally looked at her, forcing a small smile on his face. "You're right." Whether he was telling her that or telling himself that he didn't know. He took a deep breath and let it out slowly. "How about... how about you try again?" It would give him a chance to think of another memory.
He turned around swiftly, but another idea struck him and he looked back at her over his shoulder. "Actually..." his voice was suddenly shy. "Do you wanna try doing it together?" Of course he didn't know what good it would do... but it was worth a shot.
Louisa returned his smile and was glad that he didn't quit. When he asked to do it together, she got even more excited! "
Sure!" She stood by his side and pointed her wand forward. "
One.." She thought about the time her mother told her about her real wizard father, "
Two.." She thought about the last visit from her family, "
Three.." The feeling of the swing tire fall!
"
Expecto Patronum!" She muttered, hopefully as the same time as Dal, and the silver mist made it from the tip of her wand but was lost after two seconds. She was still too weak. But that wasn't what she cared about, she wanted Dal to make it. He should make it.
