"Really? That's how I used to be. I kept to myself, would read or sit out by the lake mostly but that's because I was wicked shy."
*Matty remembered those days, and they were not remembered fondly. He was always alone and he didn't notice how lonely he was until he finally got real friends. Mia was the one that pulled him out of his shell (kicking and screaming) but once he found friends he could never go back to being a loner.*
"Well if you don't want to be you don't have to be a Hufflepuff wall flower stalker whatever it was you just said. I was alone because I was shy, but that's not your problem... Do you have a fear of people or something?"
