[One raised eyebrow greeted John's answer, and Greg replied with a very serious tone.]

Well fancy that, I didn't know you, err, played for the other team as well John. Nothing wrong with it, of course, but I didn't expect that from you.

[3houseswatson]

Ha ha, Greg, you're a riot.

Remind me again: of the two of us, which one has actually had girlfriends?

[di_intraining]

[He couldn't help but laugh, before he shook his head.]

Relax John, I was just joking. I know there's nothing going on between you two.

It's funny though; he might actually complete the set for you, if it's a Ravenclaw you haven't date yet.

[3houseswatson]

Right. Just remember that.

And hah, that'll show you. I've already dated a Ravencl- oh my God, Jeanette was a Slytherin, wasn't she.

[di_intraining]

That she was.

[A clap on the back for John.]

Chin up John, and shoulders straight! After all, you've got to date them all.

[3houseswatson]

[Two can play at this, Greg...]

You're right. I should get out there and really start dating again, and why not start with the one house I haven't had a girlfriend from?

But where to start? I guess by going after the first Ravenclaw girl I can think of. Now, what was her name? Victoria, was it...?

[di_intraining]

[That does get a reaction out of him, but...possibly not the one John was aiming for.]

Victoria? Are you serious? She and I are just friends! I've never even thought of her that way before.

[3houseswatson]

Well, someone is springing to denials awfully fast.

[di_intraining]

That's because it's simply not true. We're really just friends. I mean, I do spend quite a lot of time with her but that's because she's helping me with homework.

[3houseswatson]

But we don't have anatomy class here, Greg.

[Now he's just being cheeky.]

[di_intraining]

[A fierce blush spreads across Greg's face.]

I don't think of her that way! I don't even look at her, well, her body!!

[Payback is painful.]

[3houseswatson]

[Vengeance is indeed sweet. But as funny as it is to watch Greg squirm, John can't find it in him to keep it up.]

Relax, Greg, I'm just teasing. I know you're too good a bloke to look at her like an object.

Don't know if I can believe you about the whole "just a friend" thing, though.

[di_intraining]

[John's explanation still leaves Greg slightly grumpy.]

Sod off. There's really nothing going on with us. We're just friends. Good friends. I don't feel anything close to whatever you're suggesting, and besides Arthur will have my head if I start dating his cousin.

[3houseswatson]

That's a shame. I was willing to give you a few tips and pointers, but if you don't feel that way, well...

[di_intraining]

Look. If, and that's a very, very, very big if, I start feeling that way about a girl, I'll be sure to let you be the first to know.

Even if I do fall for Victoria, it's not going to work out anyway. She's, well, she's a lady. A real princess sometimes, with all her manners and whatnot. I'm too rough for her.
