Who: Lily and Shawn
Where/When: Dating! 50's Diner!
Why: So Shawn can pretend he's the Fonze. Lily has red hair, she'll be Pinky Tuscadero. Don't jump the shark, Shawn!
Warning: WIP. 50's rock n roll.

Lily smoothed her skirt over her legs, the cotton soft under her fingers. She hadn't been sure what to wear, it seemed like California was not as formal as Hogwarts, and had to borrow a sundress from Victoria, her host family's daughter. Victoria was much more busty and Lily felt a little lost in the clothing. She was sitting on the stairs up to the house's porch, soaking up the sun and waiting for Shawn.

Shawn seemed really nice and witty, it would be fun to mock Johnny English and maybe heckle the dancers. Lily was also looking forward to seeing the jukebox, hoped the place they were going would have one. She kinda wished she had a poodle skirt, and that Shawn would show up with a pack of cigarettes rolled up into his sleeve.

"Probably the Mash Potato. Sounds fitting to me." He winked again. Ugh. He was going to have to stop doing that. More than once strayed into either 'creepy pedo' territory or 'head injury.'

He almost slammed on the breaks at her mention of sex. Not that he's a prude, but it's not something he expected to hear about before they even got to dinner. "I can promise you, there is a lot more to American than Bruce Willis. Don't forget, we also have Brad Pitt AND George Clooney."

He got quiet at the mention of Tess though. "Besides Bruce and explody sex, what else did you want to know about America? Specifically California as in that instance I can be pretty much declared an expert."

Lily giggled. "Explody sex? Sounds messy." She knew she was bright red but sometimes certain opportunities arose and one had to take them. Despite manners and things that should not be mentioned. She cleared her throat again. "Okay, things I want to know about California. Is Disney Land as horrible as it sounds? Do you really have an actor as a governor? And..." She tapped her lips thoughtfully. "Is it always 72 degrees and sunny?"

Shawn was slowing, and Lily looked to her right to see a white building coming up, awash in neon stars and blue moons and light. Really, America seemed to love to light things up. Hogwarts was all about fire light and flickering candles. After the brightness and color of American, Lily wasn't sure which she preferred.

"Only on holidays, yes, but that really shouldn't be too crazy since we've already had an actor for President and not during an El Nino. Covered everything?"

He smirked at her blushing as he parked the car and hopped out. Rushing around to the other side, he opened the door and helped her down, as any true gentleman should.

"Enough with the questions. Let's go twist and shout!"

The place was done in bright red leather seats and flecked white formica. Lily was pleased to see a huge jukebox reigning supreme on one wall; digging in her purse she found several quarters and approached it. Picked a few songs, mostly from knowing the title, and rejoined Shawn as the first song started to play. Surfing USA. Lily thought is was appropriate, given where they were.

"Hey, Shawn? Can we get malteds? Do they have malteds here?" After they took their seats Lily grabbed up a menu, giggling over the names. "Look. Moons over My Hammy. Get it? Like Miami? That's droll." She glanced around at the other patrons, who weren't nearly as enthusiastic as Lily thought they should be. "When does the dancing start?"
