He tried to escape the arrangement, but it would seem that fate really had its way with the two of them. He didn't have any regrets, however. Albert loved her more than anything, and he was settled for life when his two children were born.

Albert stopped in front of Aramis, still considering the words in his head. "Are you afraid of the what ifs?" the man tilted his head to the side, and took the opportunity to remember every detail of this conversation. Of course, he would have to tell his mother about this. She would hex him in his sleep if he didn't. "What answers are you looking for?" Albert, of course, had an inkling but he thought it best that Aramis think things through. Clearly, this girl knocked his son out of his orbit, and is now desperate to get back on track. "I am quite certain that things will come out easily when you know exactly what you want." Aramis after all, is a Slytherin like him.

The man caught sight of the lady shopkeeper, and gave her a shallow nod of acknowledgement. Of all places to have a conversation with his old man, Aramis had to choose an odd one. "And I would assume that your lady friend is among this crowd?" Albert added as he turned a full 360, and grimaced at the noise. It was as bad as the bloody British rain. "I'm afraid to say Aramis, that this is a wasted opportunity for you. Could've asked her out for tea already, at the very least." he said turning around again to look at his son. "But I am chuffed that you came to me first for advice." Because it made him feel all the more important.
Aramis ran a hand through his hair as he watched his Father pace, it seemed like he has surprised him. But he really was the only person he could turn too about this. Of course his mother would probably find out eventually. But this was a time where a son needed his Father.

Shocked or not.

Aramis stood his ground, not taking his dark green eyes from his father as he finally turned towards him. "Of course I'm afraid of the what if's. What if she doesn't like me? What if she does? " Would he be a good boyfriend? He had never had a girlfriend before, and the last thing he wanted to do was hurt Dylan. So far everything had been in a holding pattern.. Nothing had been said, so right now, no one as hurt. But if he told her he liked her and asked her out and she said no..

Another hand was raked through his hair. "I want her to be my girlfriend. " He said finally, his eyes on the ground at his feet. "But what do I do so I don't break if she doesn't? " The sixteen year old had no idea how to navigate this.. he just needed advice.

"Well she isn't here.. but yes she is probably in Hogsmeade. " He said as his dad looked around and he sighed a bit.. "We've had tea, I made it for her already. " But again, just as friends.

"I knew you wouldn't laugh at me Dad. And would take me seriously.. Do I.. just need to go for it and see where the chips fall? " Did he need to be Gryffindor about this?
