Cooper offered Charlie one more quick smile and cheerful wink before strolling, with haste because he was hungry, over to the stand and placing his order. A couple of minutes later, Cooper was arriving at the shady spot she had indicated earlier with a lemonade in each hand and a basket of fish and chips (extra chips and a little paper cup of ketchup and one cup with tartar sauce) balanced on his forearm. "Here you are," he said as he offered her one of the lemonades and then settled down himself, quite ready to tuck into his lunch.

Any rosiness to her features was not totally unnoticed but he did assume that the glow had come from being out in the sun for an extended period - hence her suggestion that they sit in the shade.

"Do you mind if I...mix all the ketchup in with the tartar sauce? Or would you like straight ketchup with your chips?"
Charlie had walked over to the table that was below a tree and plum in the middle of shade. She loved that there were places to sit out here during all of the different times of year. it was one of her favorite things about the Alley, the hustle and bustle when the Hogwarts kids were around was fun, but even when they were in school it was a busy place.

She watched as Cooper walked closer noticing his balancing skills, smiling she took the lemonade he was offering her, "Thank you." She leaned in a bit closer than necessary but it was Cooper and she was a liability when it came to him.

She shook her head at his first question but realized maybe she should actually answer him since he asked two questions, "I don't mind at all, by all means add the ketchup." She waited for him to do that before snagging a chip to dip. "How have things been for you? I feel like it's been quite a while since we were able to sit down and just chat." She made direct eye contact with him like that would let him in on all her secrets.
