When he held out the bag that he had been holding, she smiled and reached out for it "Thank you." She then peered over the top of the bag and grinned at the sight of the bear "Thank you!" The woman said enthusiastically as she beamed up at Benjy "I love teddy bears!"
She then closed the bag once more placed the straps through her arm, holding it like a bag "So, who's playing?" She asked as she glanced towards the Quidditch pitch, even from where she was standing she could already see a few kids zooming around on their brooms, probably having the time of their lives.
Benjy smiled as he watched Lyra turn pink, but didn't say anything trying not to embarrass her. "
Is Benjy not a common name, or Lyra?" He asked with a smile, trying to determine which she was referring to. "
Though I think neither is very common."
As Lyra took the present, Benjy managed to find the tickets in his pocket and pulled them out as she saw what was in the bag. "
You are very welcome. That way if this goes well, every time you see the bear, you will think of me." Now it was Benjy's turn to turn a slight shade of pink. He was never good at picking out gifts for dates, and it didn't help that his buddies who usually helped him were who knows where. But this time he had picked correctly. What girl didn't like teddy bears?
As Lyra closed up the bag, Benjy held out his arm so that if she wanted, they could interlock their arms as they walked towards the entrance. "
I think it's the Pygmy Puffs vs. the Moon Frogs." He replied glancing at the tickets as they approached the gate. Handing the attendant the tickets, Benjy motioned to let his date go through the turnstile first.
Once they had entered the stadium, Benjamin noticed the little kids flying around getting ready for their match. "
Have you ever played?" He asked glancing between the flying kids and Lyra. The redhead glanced around looking for both seats and food, in case his date wanted anything. Once he spotted the food, he smiled before turning back towards the young woman. "
Did you want anything to eat or drink now while we're still up?" He figured that he would get something if she wanted something. Otherwise they could go get settled in their seats as they waited for the match to begin.
