A quick glance to the clock hanging on the wall alerted Estella that she had taken far too long in getting ready for the evening. Standing in the dressing room of the en suite bathroom attached to her bedroom, she stared at her reflection in the mirror. With her hair loose around her shoulders and her bangs pushed to the side, she raked a hand through the dirty blond curls in an effort to give it a bit more oopmh. Once satisfied, she looked down to her make-up box and pulled out a lipstick. Once her lips gave a glistening pink shine in the mirror, she winked at herself playfully before making her way back toward her wardrobe.

She slipped on a long sleeved black dress before putting on her favorite pair of high heels. Although her friendship with Thomas had always been rather playful and flirtatious, she couldn't help but want to put in the extra effort. She had to admit, she was rather looking forward to this evening.

A final look at the clock on her wall and a knock on her door let her know that Thomas was waiting downstairs. She followed the little house elf out in the hallway, a slight spring in her step as she descended the stairs that led to the front hall.

"Oh hello there," she greeted once her eyes laid upon him.

As he leaned in closer toward her, she could feel a flush creeping up the back of her neck. It was mildly irritating for Estella. She was naturally very calm and comfortable in the presence of men, a trait she'd taken to exploiting in her work for the Death Eaters. She had not expected to find herself reacting in this way to Thomas. She smiled, though, another reaction she couldn't control when he described the place to her.

It fit her approval so far, of course. Cozy, cool places were just her thing, after all.

She nodded her head, her arm linked through his a bit tighter as she prepared herself to Apparate.

Thomas would not have been remotely surprised had he noticed the blush, of course. He was, after all, charming and quite confident of that fact. It was egotistical of him, but he didn't think there was a woman alive whom he couldn't charm.

He grinned at her smile, glad that so far he seemed to be impressing her. He expected that would only continue as they went through their evening.

Once she nodded her agreement, he apparated the both of them and a moment they were arriving with a crack outside the establishment they had mentioned. He kept her arm in his as he led her towards the door.

"What would you like to drink, my lady?" he asked her as they stepped inside.
