"Yah, well I dinna want a lecture on self-entitlement from the lass who canna even show 'er face once in a while!" Dougie shot back. "I mean, what'm I s'posed to think when ye're avoidin' me at every turn?"
Was she messing around on him, Dougie wondered? It wasn't impossible. Easy enough to get away with, living all the way in Gryffindor Tower with the likes of Black and Potter around. It would explain a lot, if she were avoiding him because she was feeling guilty.
