So with this in mind, and with the desire to do something nice for his girlfriend, Zeke staked out a claim in Professor Myers' garden for their date.
He chose the spot with great care, too, because not just any spot would do. No. Surrounded by flowers of various colours and scents, close enough to shade but open enough to enjoy the warmth of the suns rays, the Gryffindor unfurled a white and red checkered picnic blanket over the plush grass and set to work unpacking the basket he had put together.
Extending his arm into the magically-extended inside of the basket, Zeke first pulled out a couple of soft pink and white cushions and a throw rug to match, before extracting the foods. Of course, he was usually advised not to plan food dates but felt confident enough with the fruit platter he'd requested from the elves. If he'd had the foresight he might have asked for two... it was almost a shame that he'd have to wait before diving in. Zeke also unpacked from the basket a chilled jug of lemon and mint infused water along with two glasses, setting them to the side of the plate and out of legs-reach should he decide that now was the time to lay down. There was only one last finishing touch to his plans, and that was flowers for his lady. He looked briefly at the ones that Professor Myers grew, but knew better than to pick them... conjuring flowers would suffice. With a well thought out and correctly executed Orchideous, Zeke produced a modest posy and set it beside one of the cushions, at the same time as taking the liberty of laying down on the other.
Now all he had to do was wait. Maggie had dressed up for this occasion. Naturally. It was a DATE after all. Plus, it was probably one of the last few days she would be able to wear a dress without either warm tights or a heating spell. The latter of the two was of course useful in theory but she usually avoided it seeing as wearing short dresses just didn't GO with cold weather anyway.
So, naturally, she had taken this opportunity to wear this dress one last time.
She had ALSO straightened her hair which she only did on very special occasions. So consider yourself lucky, Zeke. Speaking of whom, Maggie had finally made it down to the Herbology professor's garden. Not only that, but she had also found the boyfriend. Clearing her throat to announce her presence, Maggie waited for him to get up and greet her, a grin playing around her lips.
He had totally made an effort there, she could tell. |
