Scratching the back of his neck, the Hufflepuff sat back down next to his counterpart. "Sorry," he sighed. "I shouldn't have gone off on you like that. But it's -- it's true Daisy. And my life may be completely screwed up but I should focus on what's good in my life. You and Astrid --" he glanced back over to where he was concealed, not even sure he could make him out, " -- the both of you are what's good in my life. And I am greatful for it."
Damien turned back to her for a moment before focussing his attention back to the pond. In the reeds where Astrid was still peeking out from behind. "You don't hate me that much, do you?" he asked the lizard. "You know Damien," Daisy was watching her feet as she wiggled her toes inside her shoes. "People who look on the brighter side of life, live longer...might not be a bad idea to try and think about the good things in your life." She paused. "And you have more positives in your life then you think." She looked up at him and smiled.
"Rawwkk.." The lizard poked his head up and then ducked down and turned a slightly darker shade of green-brown.
Daisy looked away from Damien and over to the lizard and laughed at Damien's question. "He can be bought for a link of licorice." At the sound of the candy, Astrid's head poked back up out of the grass.
