Bella hadn’t wanted to leave Apollo and Artemis at the Redferns, not trusting anyone but Ash, but she also knew she couldn’t take them on the non-date that Misha had planned. The location of the restaurant meant that there could possibly be muggles there which meant no magical creatures. So Bella ended up handing them over to Lyra to babysit which meant that the Ravenclaw was arriving late to the restaurant by about ten minutes.
Dressed nicely, Bella stepped out of the taxi after paying and spotting Misha right away. Her cheeks were flushed with worry and guilt as she moved over to him. “I’m so sorry that I’m late, Misha,” Bella said looking guilty, “I couldn’t leave Apollo and Artemis at the Redferns so I took them over to Lyra’s. I didn’t take in count the traffic. I’m so glad you waited.” She really was. Bella had become excited at the thought of having a non-date with Misha even if it really was a date.
