None of his neighbors were around his age, and the last time he spoke to any girls his age he'd been nine years old. "I don't have many friends there." His tone was light, as if that fact didn't matter to him in the slightest. "My friends when I was a kid were muggles, and the got offended when I went of to boarding school and left them. Which leaves me batting zero for the girlfriend department."

Which didn't bother him. If he didn't know any girls in his area why should he be bothered that he didn't have a girlfriend? Besides, it wasn't like he'd never had one before. He'd had one, and it just didn't go well --

His eyes widened at the train of thought and he quickly stopped it in its tracks. If he let himself think of that, he'd get... well, it'd just be best to get his mind on something else.

And that was what he did. He sat up straight and leaned back at Louisa's sudden outburst, surprised. He smiled, though, as she kept talking. It was good to know that she felt that way... maybe it was only his ~~parents~~ dad that felt like that. Of course, Dal didn't know what Louisa meant by 'cliched,' but that didn't matter. She was being very enthusiastic about the fact that he wasn't odd, he was 'unique.' Which was pretty much just another way of saying odd, from the way Dal looked at it.

"Thanks," he said, smirking a bit. "I don't really care, anyway. I am the way I am and I will be, no matter what people think about me." He shrugged. He quite liked the way he was, if he was honest.

Never gonna happen? She kept her smile on and tried hard not to jump on him in a tight hug! Louisa didn't know why she cared so much about the people he hung out with in Florida, but somehow she felt that during the summer he might forget how close they were in Hogwarts, how much fun they had together ~~assuming he did have as much fun as her~~ and going back home his old friends would start showing up and make her lose her adventures buddy. With his answer, all those assumptions were out the window, "Well, you have your Hogwartian friends. You don't need Floridans," making both words up for the necessity of the announcement.

She nodded approvingly, "You're right." The girl thought that Dal's fantastic trait was the fact that he was himself at all times; relaxed, funny, and everything good in a boy! Yep, that was her fair judgment on him.

"So..umm.." She started slowly, rocking her body back and forth while lifting her knees to her chest, ".. you don't have a girlfriend at home nor at Hogwarts?" She tried so hard to say it casually, just like a get-to-know-you way, "..I mean you're almost seventeen and you're really c.."ute, "..funny. Why not?" Hmm? Maybe he had some personal criteria? She should know that about him. Close friend and all.
