"Of course," she replied happily, linking her arm in his as they began their walk toward Hogsmeade. Lily was glad to see him smiling; it was something she did not often see, and she noticed he mostly only did it with her.
"What do you want to do first? Get food? Butterbeer? Or we can go in the shops, if you'd like." She thought of Madam Puddifoot's, where most people went on their dates, but immediately shrugged it off. It just seemed too... cutesy. A place Severus probably would not like. And if anyone else they knew happened to be there, they might get stared at. Not that Lily minded - she was happy for anyone to see her with him. But she knew Severus, and she knew he would probably be uncomfortable with that. No, they were probably much better off going to The Three Broomsticks or something.
