Who: Astoria and Draco
When: After his journal post
Where: Draco's place
What: Draco's promised to cook

Tori stopped in front of the mirror for a long moment before heading out of her flat. She was worried about how she looked. It was a bit strange; more than the normal vanity. She wanted to look good for Draco. Normally she wanted to look good simply because she wanted to look good.

When she was satisfied that she looked amazing, she headed out her front door and apparated to Draco's front step. After she got her bearings, she knocked on his door.

	He forced a smile. "Sounds peachy," he said, with a little too much fake enthusiasm. He busied himself with his wine glass to avoid further shoving his foot in his mouth. "Shall we eat?" He stood now, done with the conversation as it was definitely taking a turn for the worse. Food always made things better. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Tori paused at his all-too enthusastic response. She was going to say something else, but then he invited her to wat. "That sounds lovely." She said, deciding a change of subject would be good. She pulled herself up off the sofa and started into the kitchen with him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	shall we fast forward through the eating? woundedpuppy 2009-10-05 03:06 am UTC (link)
	The table was already set, a candle was lit, and the food was still steaming hot and waiting for them. He pulled a chair out for Astoria. It wouldn't do for her to have to pull it out herself. Draco was a gentleman, after all. "M'lady." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sounds good to me. :) fireandlife 2009-10-05 03:12 am UTC (link)
	Tori beamed as she slipped into the chair. She gave him a "thank you" and put her napkin on her lap. The food was delicious. With a full tummy and another glass of wine, Tori was feeling very happy and very sleepy by the meal's end. She set her glass down and smiled over to Draco. "I never knew you were such an amazing chef." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"There's a lot of things I prefer to keep to myself," he said, holding his glass up before finishing it off. He was feeling better since their little awkward exchange in the living room. Eating definitely made him comfortable. He leaned back and surveyed Astoria. "I never knew you were so appreciative." He was joking, of course. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Tori gave a little laugh. "I'm always appreciative!" She said, grinning. "You just never notice." She added, raising an eyebrow. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'll tag the other trhead when we finish this one up or ill get confused. hving trouble multitasking woundedpuppy 2009-10-07 02:49 am UTC (link)
	"That's true, I s'pose," he replied, giving her a little nudge. "I'll tell ya, though. I'm right full. Could do with a nap." He was tired, but he didn't want the night to end. Astoria was a beautiful girl who happened to enjoy his company. There weren't many of those as of late, and Draco wasn't about to push one out the door. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	No problem. :) Didn't want to forget about it, and I needed something to post for her. xD fireandlife 2009-10-07 03:09 am UTC (link)
	"Should I let you sleep, then?" She asked, giving him a soft, slightly flirtatious smile. "I'm fairly full myself, I can tell I'm going to have a good night's sleep." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I didn't mean it like that." Draco sat up quickly, nearly knocking over his glass in the process. Once it was steadied, he cleared his throat and tried again. "I mean. I'm not going to stop you if you want to go, but I wasn't trying to usher you out or anythin'," he said, hoping this got his point across better. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"It's all right." Tori said, smiling softly. She was flattered that he wanted her to stay. "I figure I'll stay and finish my wine." She said, swirling her glass once so he could see. She had about half a glass left. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That sounded like a plan. He smiled and nodded, watching her swirl her wine. "Have you been really busy during work?" He wasn't sure if he'd asked her already, but suddenly he was drawing a blank of what to talk about that didn't include the name Adrian. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"As busy as you've been, I suppose." Tori said, lifting her glass for a sip. "Trying to figure out about these random poisonings." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Ah right. I should have known." He hung his head for a moment in thought. Was he nervous? Why was it this hard to talk to someone? He didn't normally get flustered like he was getting now. It was odd. "Don't work too hard," he said, bringing his gaze up to meet hers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Tori blushed a little when his eyes met hers. He was so very handsome. She was so very smitten. She nodded once, leaving her eyes looking into his. "I never do." A little smirk crossed her features. (Reply to this) (Parent)
