Who: Becca and Howard
What: Date #2
Where: Howard's place
When: Pre-dated to Friday
Warnings: TBD
Becca was definitely caught off guard by the news that Howard had a granddaughter--which also meant he had a child out there somewhere. She later learned that this was a son. She knew the odds of meeting Howard at home were unlikely--he was a celebrity there and she'd been surprised to find that Bucky actually knew him. Maybe, given that, she shouldn't be all that surprised he had a future without her. And they'd only been on one date--this was their second--so there was honestly no telling if they had a future here or not either. She realized it was silly to worry about the 'what ifs' this early, but the concerns were still there. If they kept seeing each other and she fell for him, would they be doomed? Should she just have fun, but keep her heart guarded? Or should she still give it a real chance and see what happened?
When Howard asked her on a second date, she was wary, but she still wanted to go. She'd enjoyed the first one and they had been talking about a second even before the revelation. He had decided to wait for the weekend for this one, bit picked Friday over Saturday. With the last date, he had seemed more interested in having it sooner. She tried not to think about that either.
He had sent a car for her again, but this time told her to come in if he didn't come out to greet her. When she arrived, she didn't see Howard, so she just went in. "Howard?" she asked, recalling that he preferred she call him that over 'Mr. Stark'.
