Landon just chortled at her remark, "Yeah, I guess they do." Maybe he was too cynical about Valentine's day. He had never really been all that sure. The Slytherin had never actually had feelings for someone that were deeper than a puppy love crush; maybe there as more to it then he could see. But for now, it all seemed really idiotic. He returned her quick hug before replying, "Of course. Did you ever expect I was anything less than the best?" he replied with fake confidence and a smile. After she reassured him that she was perfectly happy being single Landon smiled, "Good. I think you should stay that way for a while," he replied jokingly. He knew Sophia probably wouldn't stay single for long but a cousin could hope he wouldn't have to play the overprotective brother role anytime soon, couldn't he? At the comment about boys leaving girls and never talking to them again Landon gave her a 'you've got to be kidding me look.' "Ah, c'mon Sophia. You know I've never done that." But that was probably only true because he'd never actually done anything with a girl. He may be the only sixteen year old boy who had never been kissed.
Landon laughed at her comment. "Oh yeah. You know that's always my main goal in life. I just sit there and wonder what exactly would turn the ladies on," he joked. Honestly, even if Landon had felt strongly for a girl, it was unlikely he would ever act on it. He was generally impassive and lazy in that department. He had decided long ago that if a girl ever made him feel as though he needed to act on it, that was the girl for him. Until then, he'd focus on himself. Landon rolled his eyes when she claimed that she may need to be protective of him. "I can watch out for myself, thank you very much. You're the one who needs the protection from these boy who, what did you say? Dump a girl at the end of the night and never talk to them again?" he retorted, using her own argument against her. When this man named Andrian came up to them, Landon had to give him the look up and down, you know, just to see if he was good enough for a family member. He couldn't help but snort slightly when Andrian asked if he was Sophia's valentine. Just the idea of it was funny. He gave a nod in Andrian's direction, "Hey, nice to meet you."
