When: Valentine's Day
What: A DATE!
Rating: Lowwww
Status: In progress
She had a date. Helga had, of course, had to ask Godric just what a date was. He hadn't seemed pleased that she was going to go off with some boy on a date, but Helga had put all of his worries at ease; she was going to go and she was going to have fun. That was all it was. Like meeting a new friend!
Once she had understood that part of it, Helga had been quite pleased. Lady Skeeter was a very peculiar woman who smelled sort of funny, as she recalled, and she liked to write things in her newspaper which were not very nice at all and might not even have been true, but she certainly had her redeeming qualities.
It never occurred to her that she might be paired up with someone scary. Like Fenrir Greyback the werewolf.
And so, she arrived at The Whizzer at six o'clock wearing one of the fancy dresses that Rowena had gifted her with for her birthday, and a pretty bow in her hair. Even her shoes were sparkly! Of course, her toes were almost frozen solid by the time she arrived at the restaurant, but that was okay, she decided. They would warm up.
There was a number 20 over one of the tables in the back, just like the number 20 on her card, and so Helga skipped on over to it. The restaurant wasn't very busy yet, but there were so many tables with numbers on top that she felt sure that it would be quite busy indeed in no time. Since there was no one at her table yet, Helga climbed up on to the chair and waited.
Maybe she should have brought a book.
