... Oh, right! Of course. Good one, pretty boy. "What do you want? Food? A book? Socks? Kisses?" The last one was a joke, obviously. But, yes. She definitely could give him a present. Whatever he wanted.. as long as it was reasonable.
Darn. These cookies were just SO GOOD. "You can have one too, Lou." Lou! Cool nickname, yeah? She liked it.
Louis watched as Delilah grabbed a cookie and suggested he get her flowers. “Alright, that’s fair,” the boy agreed with a nod. “What kind of flowers do you like?” Roses? Tulips? Lilies? The options were endless.
Louis listened as the Hufflepuff then began to suggest a list of things she could present to him as gifts.
Food? Well that wouldn't be very exciting. They were surrounded by food right now! Books? Louis enjoyed a good read, sure. Socks? A boy can never have too many socks. Kisses? ... Wait, did she say kisses? Louis's large blue eyes lit up. Welllllll!
That’s one gift idea he could get behind.
The Gryffindor grabbed a cookie as Delilah informed him they weren’t off-limits, then going on to grant him a new nickname. Lou, huh? He liked it. Most of his friends back at home called him that. It was nice to hear it in this new environment too… SO ANYWAY. Back to the
presents!
“I don’t know, Delilah, all the options are so tempting. I mean,
socks or kisses? How am I supposed to choose?” said Louis with mock concern before laughing lightly. “But since you offered, I think I can’t reject a free kiss. Here, perhaps?” He turned his face slightly sideways, indicating for Delilah to place a kiss on his exposed cheek.
Yeah, maybe transferring from the all-boys’ school hadn’t been a bad idea at all.
