Status: Private (mature content)
Summary: Adrian's mother has conspired with a friend to set their children up on a date. Adrian is not amused.
Completion: Complete
If you were a Pureblood of the upper class, it was generally expected that you would marry another Pureblood of the upper class and have lovely little Pureblood babies to carry on the family name and such.
And if, by a certain age, you were not dating, at least, these lovely Pureblood witches...well, your mother would intervene and set you up. Adrian could not count the number of dates he had been on because of his mother, and none of them had ended well. And this one wouldn't either, he was sure of it.
His mother hadn't even told him who the bird was, he thought with a sullen frown, just what restaurant she had made the reservations at, when they were for, and to please Adrian Nicholas wear your best cufflinks.
Which, of course, he was. He did like looking his best, after all. And so here he was, sitting at the table and waiting for whichever Miss Merry Sunshine he had a date with this evening.
