The young Aldor would slowly walk around the campgrounds, just looking through the place as the wind moved the leaves from side to side.
''This is a nice place, isn't it?'' Aldor said outloud, not expecting to be noticed, his eyes were bright with determination, after all this time, he was finally here, yet, he doesn't seem quite happy with the idea of being alone.
He just kept walking, feeling the need to talk, so he just started to mumble to himself. After a while of just being stood and talking to himself, he finally sat down in silence.
He'd start to chew his nails, as he stared into the sky, letting his thoughts drown him in worry and impatience, yet, he refused to talk to anybody since he got into Hogwarts, and avoided as much people as he could, but deep inside he really just wants some friends.
His face would show his worry, as he kept chewing his nails away.
''Why is it so hard to be friendly?-'' His mind kept playing tricks on him, making him feel bad with himself, but somehow, he still holds on, just sitting in silence, with a smile on his face.
''Nothing but dust, and me-''

I head out of the castle onto the grounds. I try to tell myself its because I want to explire more, I haven't really had a chance to yet but I know another reason, a much more prominent reason I'm out here is because I couldn't get up the guts to talk to anyone in the commans room and felr so awkward and out of place that I decided to head outside instead.
I began walking around, it is pretty nice out here, theres a slight breezes and theres defiantly a nice view I think as I turn towards the campgrounds.
Then I hear someone talking, there voice is quiet and I can't quite hear what they say but my immediate instinct is to turn around. Your not turning around I tell myself, you need to talk to people make friends stop hiding from every social situation. Fine, I begrundingly agree and continue walking.
I keep walking and eventually see who else is here. Its a boy with ginger hair who looks about my age but I don't recognize him so I assume he must be from another house.
Maybe I should say hi? I don't know, maybe he wants to be alone. Oh, come on stop making so many excuses just try to start up a conversation, "Uh, hi." I say with a bit of a smile walking closer. "Mind if I sit here?" I ask awkwardly motioning towards tgehpinic table he's sitting at.

Aldor would turn his head slightly, shivering slightly, as he heard a voice, the boy seemed nervous but he'd try to hold eye contact.
''H-ey- He would fidget with his thumbs, as he thought of what to say, until she asked him, if she may sit with him.
''W-ell of course- I would not mind having some company- I-I am Aldor, and you are?- '' Aldor would force himself to keep holding eye contact, even though you could see how nervous he was, his hands were shaky, and his breath was slow and deep.
He seemed kind, but very fragile, he was smilling softly, but all his body showed how strange he felt right now, deep inside him.
He knew that the way he felt was not this lady's fault, it is just the fact that Aldor is not the type of kid who tries to be with people, but even with that, he does his best to be kind to others, to seem more talkative and charming.
Some people thought Aldor was charming for many reasons, but he has trouble finding what those reasons were, maybe finding new friends and company might give him an answer, or at least he hopes it does.

The ginger-haired kid turns towards me looking startled. I give him a sight smile.
''Hey¨ He said and I noticed that he fidgeted a with his thumbs a lot.
When I ask if I can sit with him, he says ''Well of course- I would not mind having some company- I-I am Aldor, and you are?'' Aldor seems to force out. He seems to be using all his will power not to stare at the ground.
I sit down and replied, ¨Violet.¨ I try to make my voice sound normal but it still comes out quite quiet.
He seems nice I think. But he doesn't seem to know how to start a conversation any more then I do and the silence is awkward. I did ask to sit here I finally tell myself so I guess I should give talking a try.
¨So, um what house are you in? I haven´t seen you before so you must not be in Ravenclaw, right? Unless I´m super unobservant. Ravenclaw is my house.¨ I stumble over my words as I ramble in an attempt to make this less strange though honestly, I´m not sure if I´m making this better or worse, so I stop to wait for his response.

He'd keep smilling softly, as he holds his hands togheter, trying not to fidget with his thumbs as much as he was doing before, since he knows this shows how nervous he is, then he heard her answer.
''W-ell uh- that is a really nice name-'' Aldor would take a deep breath, trying not to stutter, he'd look at her from head to toe, as she asked what house he was in.
''Oh- Um, yes you're right- I'm not a Ravenclaw, I was placed in Hufflepuff, so- yeah, heh-'' He'd let out an awkward chuckle, his voice was still shaky, and quiet, but he seems to be less nervous every second that goes by.
''D-o you come here often, miss Violet?-'' He'd remain quiet, waiting for an answer, the more he thought about what he just said, he felt worse with himself.
He thought, 'That was smooth, of course, Miss Violet- yeah that wasn't terribly awkward, calling her miss was the best way to keep this conversation going, great job Aldor-'.
His eyes would lock onto hers once more, he seems to have blushed slightly, yet, his hands are not shaking as much as before, maybe this will not go as bad as Aldor thought it would.

I smiled when he complimented my name. And he didn't seem annoyed at my rambling question. He stutters, ''Oh- Um, yes you're right- I'm not a Ravenclaw, I was placed in Hufflepuff, so- yeah, heh-'' He finshes with an nervous laugh and I can't help but giggle a bit at this he seems somehow even more anxious then me.
''D-o you come here often, miss Violet?" He asks with slightly less of a stutter. I find his question a bit odd no one has ever called me Miss Violet especially not someone the same age as me. Then again I didn't dislike the sound of it. Then as I was thinking up a good response he looked at me again with his dark green eyes, he didn't seem to be shaking as much as before and he seemed to bluch a bit.
"No," I say with a smile. "I haven't actually been to this spot before. I haven't had much time to just walk around the grounds since I got here. What about you. Come here often? Do Hufflepuffs secretly have way more free time to hang out out here? Or do you just have a way better since of direction then me and haven't wasted most of your time getting lost in the hallways?"

Aldor would let out a soft smile, as he thought his response.
''Well- I found my way through the halls easily- I guess I was lucky- and no, we do not have a way of going out more than our other classmates-'' Aldor would chuckle quietly as he kept holding eye contact.
''And- I do come here quite often, just for the sake of it, if I am not in class, or reading at the library, I am usually just exploring the grounds, It is quite peaceful, but my favorite place, apart of the library, might be the Lake, I always go there when I want to clear my mind-''
Aldor would be less shaky, but something about him just screams 'I have no clue of what to say next', he did not seem bothered by her, or anoyed, in fact, he is just really confused, he's not used to people just walking up to him and starting a conversation, of course, he will have to get used to it, but for now, he really is just struggling to keep going with this conversation.
''S-o, do you- have many friends? You seem like the kind of person that does-'' He'd pause for a moment, as he started to blush again. ''I-I mean, you just walked up to me and started talking and- I would never have the determination to do that-'' He would start fidgetting with his fingers again, aparently, there's no way that he can feel less scared of starting a conversation.

He smiled slightly as he thought of a response
''Well, I found my way through the halls easily," he said this made feel slightly more self conscious about my horrible sense of direction, "- I guess I was lucky- and no, we do not have a way of going out more than our other classmates-'' Aldor laughed a bit at this and that made me smile.
''And- I do come here quite often, just for the sake of it, if I'm not in class, or reading at the library, I am usually just exploring the grounds, It is quite peaceful, but my favorite place, apart from the library, might be the Lake, I always go there when I want to clear my mind.''
I hadn't been by the lake much yet but it was very pretty and seemed like a good place to just hang out. And his favorite place being the library? I could definatly relate to that probably one of the reasons I'd been sorted into Ravenclaw was because I was such an avid bookworm.
He looked slightly confused on what to say next, and right when I was considering trying to start up the conversation again
He said ''So, do you have many friends?" I blinked surpised at the question. Me? "You seem like the kind of person that does-'' He blushed again.
I mean I didn't have any enemy's but people I'd actually consider close friends of mine? Not really I never really talked to anyone enough for them to be more then some sort of friendly acquaintance. I was shocked he thought I did.
''I-I mean, you just walked up to me and started talking and- I would never have the determination to do that-'' I blushed a bit at this. I guess I had been a bit more confident then I usally was.
I laugh a little and shake my head, "No not really, I'm usally pretty shy I actually don't generally just walk up to someone and start a conversation." I wasn't quite sure what to say next.
"Uh, so do you have any hobbies? Or... I don't know. As you can tell I'm really bad at just conversations in general." I say sheepishly.

He'd smile softly, as he thought about her answers, and then she asked if he had any hobbies, he would think for a moment, nothing, really came to his mind at first.
"Well- I like to write songs but- I'm awful at it-" He'd pause for a bit, biting his lip.
"Actually- I am an expert at reading for hours- And- being terrible at talking, avoiding staying at the dorms because I don't know how to interact with my classmates, I guess it's normal-"
He would hold his own wrist, as he tried to control his shakiness, he seems to have lost his chill for a few moments, as his hands began shaking again and his breath became slower.
He really doesn't know what to say next, but he did his best to think of a way to keep the conversation going.
"I'm sorry if I am making the situation extremely awkward for you, I- am not good at talking and all that stuff, and- well I think I should stop there and let you do the talking- "
He seems quite troubled by everything but somehow he seems to keep holding his smile, it doesn't matter how scared and nervous he feels, he doesn't seem to break, and keeps going with the conversation.

He smiled softly at my answer and when I asked about hobbies he thought for a moment then replied,
"Well- I like to write songs but- I'm awful at it-" He said then bit his lip. I hadn't really expected him to be a song writer but noe I was curious if he was as awful as he thought he was. I considered asking him more about his songs but he continued.
"Actually- I am an expert at reading for hours- And- being terrible at talking, avoiding staying at the dorms because I don't know how to interact with my classmates, I guess it's normal-"
I smiled a bit I could unfortunatly relating to all of those. I noticed the he held his own wrist as he thought of what else to say and figured out he was trying to stop himself from shaking so much which I supposed was because of his nervousness.
"I'm sorry if I am making the situation extremely awkward for you, I- am not good at talking and all that stuff, and- well I think I should stop there and let you do the talking "He says.
He's still trying to give me a smile but I can very obviously tell he's uncomfortable. I'm not sure at first how to reply but then I say trying to come off as funny, "I'm not sure if me talking will be any better, honestly I could probably beat any record you have of avoiding people. Since I've been at Hogwarts I've probably spent more time hiding in a quiet corner of a Library reading then in my own commons room, and maybe thats not too bad untill people start forgetting your even their roomate your so invisable."
I try to think of what else to say then I remember his other hobbie, "Though one credential I definatly don't have is song writing. So maybe you could tell me about that? What kind of songs do you like to write?" I ask.
Though after saying that I sort of regret it. What if he thinks I'm annoying and prie too much, I mean he did already seem like he didn't really want to share what he wrote and I could definatly relate to that I rarely showed off my artwork but still curiosity got the best of me and I waited for a reply.
