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.

"Very true," Dallin replied with a real, happy smile. He was perfectly happy with his Hogwartian friends, as Louisa called them. Even though he couldn't see them during summer he could still be around them for most of the year. So he could be fine for those two months away from Hogwarts.

He couldn't help but laugh at Louisa's approval. It was sort of funny how personally she had seemed to take the fact that people - mostly his had - had called him odd. It was like she was more offended by it than he was. That meant that she was a good friend though, so Dal didn't comment on that. He wouldn't want to make her feel embarrassed or anything.

Actually, though, it was his time to feel embarrassed when he couldn't answer her question right away. Why was she even asking if he had a girlfriend? Did it even matter to her, or was she just making conversation and getting to know him? Either way, he felt bad about not answering quickly. But this was one of those questions that made him think. Of course, the answer was no, he didn't have a girlfriend. Anywhere. His problem was trying to decide if he should give her a reason.

In the end, he decided that he'd keep it short and sweet. No need to really think about it, or he'd get emotional. And that would be hard to cover up. So he forced a laugh and said, "No girlfriend, here or otherwise." As to why that was... "I dunno, you'll have to ask the girls that won't date me." He made a sarcastic face at her to show that how should he know why he didn't have a girlfriend? "I'm certainly attractive enough. Maybe they're scared off by my good looks."

Oh, good old Dallin. Hiding insecurities and emotion behind sarcasm and an ego.
