DDD: 24 - Log with Suze [First Date]

[quidditch_stag]

On the morning of Valentines, James was up and about earlier than he had been in a long time. He took ages getting ready before sneaking down to the kitchens. Once he'd gotten what he wanted from the elves and thanked them, he joined the group going down the Hogsmeade

Suze was still feeling very strange about her date with James. The possible consequences were a bit much, but she quietly shoved those out of her mind for the time being. Her grounding was over and she was glad for a break from school, family and ghosts.

After getting a worldhop from someone on the community, Suze spotted James waiting on the hill and laughed softly. Even from far off she could see his goofy little grin. That settled things for her. She wasn't going to worry about everything that could happen and just spend her time with James having fun.

Quietly, she crept up behind him until she was only a few inches away. "Boo!"

He jumped slightly and laughed before grabbing her hand and pulling her down to sit beside him. Grinning, he did a few good goldfish impressions, thinking about what to say first before finally just placing the basket between them.

"I brought a picnic." He was too nervous to think of anything else to say so food seemed like a good idea.

"I noticed," she said with a laugh as she took her seat on the blanket. She leans over and peers into the basket. "Anything good?"

He grins at her. "Everything." And it was. There was at least two of everything in the school kitchens and Honeydukes.

He opened up a bottle of butterbeer and handed it to her. "Try that."
