Minerva smiled, really he didn't think she could take a slytherine. Was she that weak in front of him. The she thought about it, yes, she had cried a few hundred times about Damon, got nailed by a tree, and whatever else he had saved her from lately. So he probably did think she was weaker then she really was. "Oh I think I can handle her. It's not like I'm trying to take you from her. I want you to spend time with her and be there for her when she needs you. That's what friends do. I don't expect you to be with me all the time, so don't hesitate to go and hang out with her." She wanted to make sure he understood that.
