Who: Anastasia Summers and Terry Boot
When: Friday, around 6
Where: Out to eat at a Thai restaurant
What: First Date/Meeting/etc.
Rating: PG
Status: Closed/In Progress

As six got closer and close, Anastasia became more nervous. It wasn't often she got nervous. At first, this whole thing had been no big deal. Just a harmless date for the fun of it. And then the next day she had found out she was supposed to marry the guy and spend the rest of her life with him. That upped the intensity level for just just a little bit. She had spent the morning working at her muggle job, and then the rest of the afternoon at her new store. She had decided to go with Something Creative as the name, and there was now a sign hanging outside the shop that let everyone know what the name of the soon-to-open store was.

At ten to six, she stood in her flat, finishing getting ready. The restaurant she had chosen wasn't anything fancy, just a fun, casual place, so dressing up wasn't really needed. Her outfit was bright, simple, and trnedy in her opinion. No point in no being herself. Her pink and black hair was it's naturally curly self and pulled up, pieces framing her face. The thought that Terry might have a problem with pink highlights, or a nose ring never crossed her mind.

At nearly six, she arrived at the restaurant, having apparated close to it, and walked the rest of the way. She glanced at the little silver watch on her wrist, before entering the restaurant, trying to calm her nerves. Entering the cool restaurant, she stopped at the door to look around, brown eyes scanning the room. Maybe he was already here, and if not, she'd just get them a table, then wait.

"But it's not a show," said he. Terry's eyebrows could express just about any emotion flawlessly and now they were just plain confused. Or maybe somewhat concerned. Perhaps a bit frustrated? They furrowed to the point where a deep crease was made between the pair and all that anyone could muster from the look was that he was feeling something terribly significant. This was a wise observation on anyone's part.

"You don't think I'm just doing it so it seems real, do you?" He wasn't very keen on living life like a faker. He was always very honest, to the point where it hurt others with what he opted to do and say, or to the point where it scared others because he felt so deeply and strongly without having to process his feelings. He was a very black and white sort of man, so when he asked her it was because he meant it.

When he kissed her, he meant it. Sure it was because of Ministry it came to be at this moment, but he'd have surely opted for Azkaban if he didn't think Anastasia was absolute perfection. He knew she was it from the moment they started chatting within the journals! He couldn't deny such a connection, and his gut told him it was fate, not coincidence, that put them together.

"I wouldn't have asked if I didn't really care about it. About you. Is that mental?" Probably, but Terry never said he was sane.

She looked puzzled for a second, before shaking her head slightly. "That's not what I meant. I'm just saying I don't mind. I still wouldn't have made a fuss if we were alone." a slight blush probably rose to her face when she thought she really wouldn't mind if he did it again. Actually, she kind of hoped they would. Though maybe somewhere less public where people weren't watching.

It was her turn to frown, eyebrows knitting together, and head titling to the side ever so slightly. "Well, actually I was hoping it was because you cared. If I didn't like you, I don't think I would want it to seem real. But I want to wear this ring." she said, her face relaxing, wonder if he thought she was some kind of shallow girl who only wanted to put on a show. That wasn't the case, this wasn't a show. It was personal. "I really don't think I could have been any luckier when they put me with you, you know." some girls were ready to kill their match. Anastasia was actually very, very happy with hers.

"No, it's not." she said, most of the girls who got matched weren't getting purposed to, like it was supposed to be done, like most girls wanted it to be done. Didn't many girls want their dream wedding or and nice engagement? She was betting she was one of the few who actually got one. "I wouldn't have said yes if I didn't care about you." had it been someone else, he probably would have been putting on a show, and she would be angry then.
