He just came across my compartment and was polite enough to greet me."

When she stopped, she realized how agitated she was- breathing hard, too. She folded her arms and glared at one or two of the students who gave them confused looks, and they scattered away quickly. Back to Vashti, "Leaving Hogwarts didn't make him him as bad tempered as today when we talked about it few days ago." She met her friends' eyes, "Don't try to justify him, Vashti. He's hurt-" her throat went suddenly stuck and she had to hem a bit before continuing, "-me. And I..." Another lump that caught in her throat and this time she didn't bother completing her sentence.

Distance herself from Dallin? Louisa seemed surprised at this. It was simple.. too simple, actually, that she was frightened. They were going to stay apart for almost three months before the next term. He said he wasn't going home and that meant even if Louisa decided to call him, afterall, she wouldn't be able to. Whether she liked it or not, Louisa was actually not seeing him or have anything to do with him for a very long time. Distance herself from him, in other words. Her face went pale quickly, "yeah." She mumbled to agree with Vashti but she was scared- she did not want not to see him for that long! Even when he shouted at her and said that he had a girlfriend and all! She still wanted him to be around. Whenever she looked for him, she must find him. That was what seemed right to her.
"I..." But before Vashti could even speak, Louisa practically blew up, rapidly listing what all had happened earlier with Dallin, and Vashti could only stand there and listen and try to stay calm. It wasn't that she didn't believe Louisa or that she thought she was a liar or anything like that - she just didn't think her friend had a very objective view on the situation. Which was okay, she wasn't really expecting her too. Louisa had a crush on a guy and it hadn't worked out so far. Vashti didn't expect her to just shrug it off, but she thought what Louisa needed was someone (i.e. Vashti) to give an objective view on the situation. Was she wrong?

Maybe?

She'd never gone through this sort of thing herself, so how would she know? How was it that Louisa, who was younger than her, was experiencing this sort of thing before her?

Merlin's beard.

Talking about it a few days ago didn't upset him? Vashti was going to reply with something about the difference between talking about something and experiencing something and how a person might be more upset by one over the other - but Louisa once again spoke before she could. "I'm not trying to justify him," she said, frowning. And then - well, Merlin, what could she possibly say to that? Dallin had hurt Louisa, even if he hadn't intended to, there was no way to disagree with that. So what was there to say?

Nothing.

So remaining silent, Vashti moved to stand beside Louisa and put an arm around the girl's shoulders in an effort to comfort her. Words couldn't do that now.
