Who: Bruce Banner and Jean Grey
What: A Date
When: Friday Evening
Where: London
Rating: TBD

Bruce stepped from the London Portkey a few minutes before six on Friday, and looked around instinctively, eyes scanning the area. He was an old hand at this, eyes noting the smallest things about those around him. When he was satisfied that no supers, no cops, and no uniforms of any kind, were nearby, he relaxed. He had been hoping he could trust Jean, but there was a small part of him, the Hulk part, that never let go of paranoia. Now, he relaxed a little, and settled on a bench near the key, smiling as he waited.

He still watched the crowd, dressed up in an evening suit and clean-shaven, he felt bouncy and nervous. Here he was on his first date in... ever. Jean was... amazing. Beautiful, honest, strong, thoughtful, kind... and she knew what it was like to deal with a powerful entity sharing her body. He had never dated Betty, and nothing else had come close to stirring this much hope and nervousness in him. So he waited, and hoped.

Jean tried hard to remember the last 'date' she had been on. It had to have been years ago. What with being dead and betrayed and everything. Eh, why dwell on the past.

She actually had done her hair and was wearing a black dress; the classic sort that made it look like you weren't even trying to look that freakin' fabulous, even though you had to obviously. Movies never quite got that part right.

Tottering up on dark red heels that she already regretted (they just made her legs look so darn good), Jean waved a touch nervously. Come to think of it, when was the last time she had even been nervous?

"Hey."

	When he saw her, she took his breath away, and he almost stopped literally breathing for a moment, eyes wide. "Hello, beautiful..." He blushed and bowed to her, grinning. "Ah, nice to you see you, Jean. You look amazing." Plain desire added itself to the admiration and respect and like he had for her, all of it making him feel giddy. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jean felt her own cheeks flame, and she looked down at her shoes. She'd have said something about overdoing it, but he looked so nice she didn't want to spoil it. She was doing it again. Worrying about what to say. Geez, did you ever outgrow that? But he looked... wow. Maybe you didn't outgrow those butterflies in the stomach either. "You too." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He smiled, nervous, but gave her that grin and nodded. "Thank you. Ah, shall we go?" He waved a hand at a nearby taxi. "Your chariot awaits, milady." He swept her a bow, with a wink. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She laughed a little, sliding into the seat. "How New York of you, Dr. Banner." Jean forced herself to her ease, and found it easy. It wasn't as if this was a stranger. It was Bruce, and it was just a simple date. Right? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He chuckled and slid in next to her, finding himself right up against her in the cramped cab. He swallowed and gave directions to the cabbie, who drove on. "So, ah, how are you?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She turned to him, and she couldn't help it. Jean laughed. "We're as nervous as a bunch of teenagers, aren't we?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He chuckled too. "Yeah. I am, I know. I've never actually managed a date before, so this is kind of utterly terrifying, and cool, all at once." He grinned at her. "Especially with you." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She nudged him with her elbow. "It's cute on you. So don't worry." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh my. There was something almost adorable about how nervous he was. It was coming off Bruce's body in near waves, and Jean had to admit she was as well. How long had it been? "... we'll see where the night takes us." Her voice was infused with seduction and need. It had been too long. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He nodded, breathing that in, then nodded at the food. "For now, I believe they have given us enough to feed an army. Shall we eat?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Jean smiled, reaching down to dip a point of bread in a steaming tray, then put the food to his lips. "Good idea." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
