The world’s oldest scientific zoo is right within the imperceptible boundaries of our very city. Well… the city that is home to the matchmaker team, London. They house virtually every animal one could think of on the spot. Why not start with the first thing to cross your path, the aquarium. It contains three separate halls filled with Amazonian fish, a coral reef habitat, and fish for conservation projects respectively. The aquarium is right by the reptile house (where the legendary Harry Potter released a python- the muggles never did figure that one out), and the outback exhibit.
There’s lions and tigers and bears (oh my!) and even a meet the penguins exhibit for you to explore. Thank the matchmakers for snagging those tickets. Of course, if monkeys or bugs are your thing, then why not go meet them?
Two cafes are in the zoo for you and your date to stop and have a bite, or head to one of the vendors if stopping to sit isn’t an option. The gift shop is just out the exit full of exciting souvenirs for you to buy your date. Pick up a map, and have a good time!  | |

Pfft...of course she didn't hurt him. He was a man! A tough man! Well that's what he liked to tell himself anyway but it was actually the other way around.
And Marcus was just about to tell her so when Less moved her head onto his shoulder and he kinda forgot what he was going to say. She smelled really good. And then she started with the carressing and he chuckled ever so softly.
He moved his face closer to hers ever so slowly and stopped when their lips were almost touching. "Want to go see the lizards now?"
Oh how he loved to tease.

Evil... Evil man...
Coming so close and not giving her what she wanted.
She pulled up and bounced straight. "Yes!" She said excited. "Lets go see the reptiles."

Oh bugger!
That hadn't worked out the way he had been hoping. Apparently they were both gonna play games.
Well games were fun.
Marcus chuckled as they began to walk towards the reptile house. "So what do you do when you're not teaching?" And going on blind dates.

"Nothing really." She said, "I was thinking of going back into romance novel writing, but I think I needed to believe in romance and love again to do so." She told him.

Marcus refrained from pulling a face. Romance novels. What was it with women and those mushy books? Didn't they know everyday men were just not like that? Or was that just him?
"Is that why you're here today?"

"Well... a little I guess." She said blushing. "I mean I didn't come here to start my career back up, but I'm hoping to start believing in love again..." After Pepe proposed and then left, she stopped caring about love... she'd been hurt too bad.

"Things didn't work out with you and...ahh...Bontecou, huh?" Well that was a dumb question, wasn't it? If things had of worked out between them then she wouldn't be here today.
"You were too good for him anyway." That was always the right thing to say when a relationship didn't work out. Marcus, personally didn't have anything against the ex-headmaster.

"You're sweet." She said blushing. She couldn't very well say the same. Iliana was her best friend.
"Pepe... Bontecou, he'd proposed... and then... when he came back from being kidnapped... he... took it back." She wasn't going to cry. It wasn't even threatening to happen. She'd already cried. She had no more tears left. "So yeah... it didn't work out. And I'm glad or I wouldn't be here with you now."

Well he had something against the man now. What a jerk? That was a really crappy thing to do to someone. Not quite as bad as what Iliana had done to him but it was up there.
Marcus gave her a kiss on the cheek. "You're probably just saying that to make me feel good. But I'm glad that you're here today." And he was. He had been a little worried about the whole blind date thing. It wasn't something he had ever done before.
They entered the reptile house and he tightened his grip on her hand. "Now make sure you let me know if you're scared." So he could make her feel better.

"I'm glad you are here too." She said and smiled. Then she turned and saw a snake. "Oh Ewww..." she said and turned into him. "You know, whoever picked this place had no idea how much I don't like creatures..." which was ironic really, as she herself was one.

Women could be so confusing sometimes. Didn't she just get all excited about seeing the reptiles and now she seemed disgusted by the sight of them. Not that Axe minded at all, seeing how he got to get all cuddly with her again. "Same here. She matched US right but definitely not the place."
What was wrong with an amusement park? Or a movie and dinner? Now they would have been ideal places.
"Wanna go somewhere else?"

"I wouldn't mind going somewhere else... You want to go to dinner?" She wouldn't mind skipping straight to the pie though... Alessia had a such a sweet tooth. "Or were you thinking of some other place?"

"Dinner sounds good." Now that he thought about it, he was actually famished. "What do you feel like? Italian? Japenese? Spanish?" Marcus didn't care either way so long as they had lots of food. He could eat a Hippogriff.

"I eat Italian all the time..." She said and tried to pull him away from the reptile house. "Let's do Japanese." She said now in the mood to eat fish... maybe the aquarium wasn't such a good idea.

Marcus allowed her to pull him away from the reptile house. He was pretty much over the whole zoo thing anyway. "You gonna wear a Kimono?" he asked, tugging on her hand and pulling her back against him.

"I wasn't planning on it..." she said and her face turned mischievous. "However, if you wish, I could do a little transfiguring... and get something more appropriate to wear..."

"Maybe I should have suggested something else then." he said, waggling his eyebrows at her. Marcus wrapped his arm around her waist as they walked towards the exit of the zoo. "I know this great place that sells the best pies. We'll go there after dinner."

"Awww I was hoping for a home baked pie..." She said and dragged her finger down the length of his chest. "And maybe you may be up to that private performance?" She giggled and then added, "Unless you need your other bandmates..."

"You're too much of a distraction Alessia Lupa. Remember the last time?" He had almost burned down his kitchen. "But we can pick up one and take it back to my place." Where he could give her that private performance. "Nah, I don't need them. I'm the star anyway." he said with a grin and giving her a nudge with his hip.

"Oh stop..." She said and slapped his chest. "Fine, if we're buying, I want chocolate silk pie." She said and giggled. "I love chocolate."
She was excited now! Private performance from a rock star... She wanted to squeal! "So come on, Let's go."

"You can have anything you want." This was the best date that he had been on in ages so he would quite happily buy her a dozen chocolate silk pies. "I remember. You gave me some serious competition that day in Puddifoots." They must have tasted everything on the menu that day. But it had been so good.
Marcus couldm't help but laugh at her obvious excitement. "Okay, okay. Do you want to apparate? Or just walk there?"

"I like getting what I want." She said mischievously and blushed. She always acted so girlish, even if she was and older woman. "Would I sound too eager to say I let's apparate?"

"No. You would just sound lazy, like me." Marcus had been hoping she would want to apparate. He was not in the mood to do any more walking. Taking her hand, he pulled her behind one of the enclosures and making sure that no one was around, he turned them on the spot and disapparated.
Seconds later they appeared in an alley behind his favourite Japenese restaurant. "After you madame."

... and still no kiss.
This was going to drive her insane! He was sooo close, and hidden... so romantic. But there would be no romance if he didn't kiss her!!! *grumbles*
"Well..." She said walking out of the Alley, not showing any sign of her being upset. "This looks nice... I take it you've been here before?"

He walked along beside her and when they reached the front, he held open the door for her. "Yep. I come here at least once a week when I'm home in London." Which was a little more often lately. Marcus was starting to get tired of being on the road all the time.
"Do you come to London often?"
