Who: Su and Daniel
What: Their first meeting
Rating: TBD, but I'm sure it will be low

Out of nerves, Su had closed her section of the shop early and walked down the street to the Leaky Cauldron. She couldn't believe what was happening, and the cards were proving to be a spectacular lack of help. All they were telling her was that big changes were ahead and that she needed to remain calm and collected.

Her voice shook as she ordered a drink and sat down at a table in the corner. It allowed her to see everyone in the place, and spot Daniel when he arrived. A quick glance around the pub showed that she was the only Asian in the place, so she was sure that he wouldn't have a hard time spotting her.

The barkeep brought her drink over with a small smile and a familiar greeting, but quickly left after noticing how out of sorts Su was. Instead of taking a sip of the beer that she had ordered, Su ran her finger around the rim of it, waiting for Daniel to arrive.

"I'm sure they would," he nodded. Daniel smiled at her. "Dad's an old softy with a penchant for muggle things. He'd probably find it romantic." He shook his head smiling fondly. He really did take after his dad more, though he had his mother's thirst for knowledge.

"Actually I kind of like the idea of both." He looked down, a blush rising on his cheeks. "It's like you take two different things and join them to make one beautiful thing. It sort of makes me think of how marriage is supposed to be." Maybe it was a little dorky and romantic and he hoped he didn't scare her talking that way, but that was just how he felt.

Su listened to Daniel talk, and realized with a small shock that she really enjoyed spending time with him. When he got the soft look and tone in his voice, it made Su want to keep spending time with him. And keep making him act like that.

It made her heart feel light and flighty in her chest, a feeling that she was slowly getting adjusted to. "Sounds like something we should go look into, then," Su said with a small smile, "I know a couple of jewelry stores. We'll see what they have?"

	"Sure, that'd be nice," he smiled at her. "I want it to be something you'll like too." He went to take a drink of his beer and realized he'd finished it. Daniel looked over to Su and nodded towards her glass. "Did you want something else or maybe eat something?" Now that he was more at ease with her, he was a little hungry.

"I wouldn't mind eating something," Su nodded, realizing that she hadn't had anything to eat since the night before. She wasn't a huge breakfast person, and didn't have anything this morning with the shape that her nerves had been. She couldn't stomach anything. But now, she was actually quite comfortable.

Su looked around, trying to make eye contact with the waiter so he would come over and take their order. "Do you know what you want?"

	Daniel raised his hand part way to catch a passing waiter's attention. "We'd like to order some food, please," he smiled pleasantly. The waiter nodded. "Did you need menus or do you know what you'd like?" "Um, I'll have a club sandwich and some chips. Oh and another butter beer, please." He looked over at Su. "And whatever she'd like."

"I'll have the same," Su said softly, deciding that Daniel's order actually sounded quite good. Usually she got the fish and chips, but today she had a craving for something that wasn't greasy and fried.

She sat back in her chair and smiled to herself, thinking that this wasn't going to be as bad as she had possibly thought.

[OOC: Do we want to close this one? We need to have them get married. Or we can just say that thread occured. Up to you.]

The waiter took their order and left them alone once again.

"So do you have a lot of things to move?" He smiled embarrassed. "I'm sorry that came out a bit rude. I'm just trying to get an idea of how big a place we might need to find." Daniel ran a hand through his hair and laughed softly.

OOC: yeah I think that's a good idea, just close this. We can say the marriage occured, say on Saturday, July 5th at Regents Park in London. Only his parents came and a few friends from his Uni. Maybe the next thread could be them moving in? What do you think?
