Albus' response was not as she expected. She wasn't sure what she had expected. When she had first begun living on her own, she would always rush visitors out the door. Then again, as she had said not moments before, people weren't her forte. Still, Albus has always been more antisocial and withdrawn than she, but it was he that made the more courteous host. Funny how those things worked out. But she was getting far too thoughtful on these matters she supposed she really knew nothing about.
She tried to think of a proper reason to leave. The only reason she had said it was that she figured she had overstayed her welcome. Now, however, she could not turn around and say otherwise, invite herself to stay longer than what she had already considered to be excessive. She opened her mouth, hoping the words would come, when Albus began to give her excuses for her. Yes, of course she should be busy, she was a Quidditch player and all. Right? Yes, she was sure she had something to be doing.
She smiled a bit, as he rambled on. The smile was one of surprise and confusion, but she played it off with a smile. Why should he, the ever eloquent Albus Potter, suddenly be stuttering over his words and rambling about.

She stood, rubbing her filth and approaching the door, placing a hand on the doorknob, looking back as he spoke. "You got it."
