Of the little that he knew Vashti after helping Louisa and her through their problems last term, Vashti didn't strike him as the type that would do something like that. Although perhaps Dallin had just completely taken the girl by such surprise that she wasn't really sure how to react. "Well...how did Vashti respond?" Adam asked, wondering if she instantly regretted the action, or was too surprised to really have a proper response at the time...
Seeing that Louisa had laid back on the ground to look up at the sky, Adam joined her, listening as she expressed her thoughts about commitment. "I have often asked the same questions of my parents...well...parent now I suppose," Adam replied softly. "Fear really is a powerful thing," Adam said, keeping his eye on a cloud that was drifting above them. "In some ways I think it might be one of the most powerful forces in the world."
Louisa actually chuckled at his 'wow' response. It
was indeed wow-y. It was pretty daring to kiss the Head Girl, too. "
I know. Well, I didn't talk to Vashti about it. I think it's too awkward for her to discuss it." A naughty giggle followed that, Louisa tried to drown it with a fake cough. "
But if I really know the girl, then I say she must've ran away." Blushing, breathless and the like. Hehe. Ahem.
Her features quickly softened at his 'parent' correction. She slid her arm closer to his and placed her hand over it. "
They loved each other, though. Your parents. No one abandoned the other." Even if they were quite obnoxious to their only son. Gazing up at the sky again, she pondered his opinion about fear. It made sense. "
It is powerful in a bad way." Pause. "
What are you most afraid of, Adam?" Totally random, but as a Gryffindor about to become an Auror, she wanted to know.
