“Do not hold back on my account,” Albus insisted. Honestly, the young Potter was curious as to what was on the other boy’s mind. Clearly he had something to say and he might as well get it off his chest while he still had a chance. Listening to him, Albus’s lips tightened as he started to get tense. “You mean the family that is all Gryffindors, while I am the only Slytherin? The family where I am the social outcast and hardly can find anything in common with any of them, I guess you are right. You know a lot more about me than I thought. I may have a large family, but do not mistake that with not having my own issues with it. You try and survive a holiday at Grandma Weasley’s house with everyone there.”
It appeared Dante was rather flustered by this whole line of conversation as was Albus. At what first started out as pleasant conversation took a turn into some deep things that Albus had no prepared himself for, especially when it came to Scorpius. “Not to sound rude or anything, but did it ever occur to you that it might be you that has the off-putting personality not Scorpius? Perhaps you did something to him originally which led to all these events?”
Dante sat back, listening to everything that spilled from the other boy’s lips, and nodded slowly. Dante could’t just assume things, well he did, but he supposed vocalizing his opinions was the wrong route altogether. He wasn’t about to argue with the boy. “Here.”he commented, segueing roughly over the conversation of his family, Slytherin’s and Scorpius, and pushing his notebook over to Albus. He wasn’t sure if Albus was really paying attention anymore, and he shouldn’t get behind on Dante’s account. “I’ve been multitasking.”he offered, trying to lighten the mood, and sniffing the air as he looked ahead.
“And if it makes you feel any better not having any family besides my mum and not having any friends does that to you.”he smirked sadly after a pregnant pause, he knew he was a cluster fuck of negativity, people telling him so wasn’t news. “You’re lucky to have them all.”
