Theo hadn't heard of it but then he never dined out and had scant knowledge of any of the restaurants on the area. The cafe sounded good though, especially the privacy spells and the booths - he hated sitting in the middle of a room, especially when he couldn't have his back to a wall, even though the fact that he needed to sit in such a manner made him feel like he'd failed some universal test. "Six sounds perfect." he agreed, trying not to convince himself out of it already. It was just dinner and a chat and Ernie knew enough about him on the surface to not be scared off by him for the duration of one meal; he had picked him up off the floor after all, and if anything else was unearthed during dinner then at least they'd given it a fair go. It wasn't as though this was a marriage proposal, not that Theo thought it would get that far.
Ernie was kind. Theo felt safe with him, and Theo didn't even feel safe when he was on his own. Could he be blamed for wanting more of that? Yes, maybe it was selfish of him because there was no way Ernie would want anymore of his company after discovering what dark traps came with it, but then at least Ernie would be able to see that for himself and not be told by Theo and end up always wondering 'what if' - this was the better way for the both of them.
