[oohhhoho, you won't be saying that when you meet-]
How about that cafe in Somni - the adorable one, where you can get anything you want? I can swing by your place and we can take our time getting over there, maybe.
[she manages a bright grin, blowing him a kiss before hanging up. She doesn't take long before she heads out - just a little bit of time to fluff her hair and add another swipe of lipgloss. Then she crosses the distance between their places easily, finally coming to rap at his door shortly thereafter.]
[Knowing she was well on her way, Remus was there to answer the door immediately at her knock before his various roommates could come out and interrupt them. Snaking an arm around her slender shoulder with his usual gentle smile, the teenager is quick to lead her away.]
Perfect timing, Isabelle. I was just thinking of asking you out for lunch today, but you beat me to it.
[his arm around her is almost enough to make her forget what she wants to talk to him about. She loops her own arm around his waist, leaning against him for a pleased moment.]
I've got to do it sometimes. I mean, I was starting to think that you'd be doing all the asking out. I've got to keep you on your toes, you know.
You keep me on my toes enough, I think. [Even though his friends prefer the adventurous and thrilling lives of a teenage wizard, Remus is a bit of an old man at heart. He really would love nothing more than to spend his unoccupied evenings curled up with a mug of hot cocoa (and perhaps a nice companion), where the only choice to be made is what title from his book collection he'd be delving into.]
So, [He happily guides Isabelle in the direction of their favorite cafe. Thankfully, it is just a quick walk. No magic needed today!] what was it you needed to talk about?
[nope. Just gives her time to enjoy his company before the inevitable drama that ensues. Sob.
[It doesn't take them that long to get to the cafe, making idle conversation and generally catching up.] Let's grab a corner booth, okay? Bit more private.
[she shoots him an appreciative grin, sliding into the booth and shifting the menus to one side so she can lightly drape one hand on the table, almost in invitation. She's been there enough that she knows what she wants anyway.]
Remus follows through, slipping into the opposite side before holding her hand over the table. Whatever may be plaguing her is a complete mystery to the wolfboy. He is grinning far too happily to suspect any trouble down the road.]
[Isabelle inhales sharply when she calls him, exhaling just before she speaks. She tries for cheerful, but she's not entirely sure if it works.]
Hey there, handsome. I was just- Did you want to do something? Meet for lunch? I just...wanted to talk to you.

[But...oh. He's bringing that back up. She laughs lightly.] I was thinking we'd eat first. If that's okay with you.
