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!  | |

"Not as often as I'd like. The last time was when the fair was in town, which was fun." She's seen Pepe then. He'd looked very good, but Marcus was looking good now. And they were having a good time.

"Oh yeah, I'd heard about that. I think I was out of town then." To be honest he couldn't remember. Time went so fast these days and he just kept getting older even though he was doing his best to deny it.
They were seated at a table in the corner and with their drinks order placed, Marcus looked at Less and grinned. "You're still as gorgeous as ever."

She tapped her dress and it turned into a more... Japanese style dress, although it wasn't a kimono. "You are such a charmer Marcus... or would you rather I call you Axe?" Wasn't that what his band mates called him? And that infernal bunny woman??

"And you are...woah!" Was it getting hot in here or was it just him? Marcus couldn't help but stare at her. He was definitely liking the outfit. He gave himself a shake and lifted his gaze to her eyes. "Er...what?"

She smiled, pleased with the effect she had on Marcus. "I said, would you rather I call you Axe? I don't think I've ever used that nickname, but I am aware of it." She flipped her hair back behind her shoulder, showing off the sleeves of the dress.

"No Marcus is fine." His band mates called him Axe and Annie when she liked to annoy him. Besides he liked the way his name sounded when Alessia said it. He was just picking up the menu when she did that hair flip thing. She certainly knew how to distract a person.
"What would you like to order?"

She gave a quick glance to the menu. Marcus was fine, but she felt like maybe he didn't want her part of that world. Maybe she was overthinking this...
Maybe...
"I like anything Japanese..." She said meeting his eyes. Technically she enjoyed anything raw too... "Why don't you order for me, I assume you've been here before? I'm sure you know what they make best..." She smiled.

Marcus smiled back at her and signaled for the waiter and placed an order. When that was done, he turned his attention back to her. "Yeah I come here pretty often. When I'm in town." Which lately had not been a lot. He missed his apartment. He was getting too old to travel around all the time.
"Do you travel much?"

"I don't..." She said shrugging, "But I wouldn't mind if there was something... or someone to visit." She began playing with her chopstick nervously, and then pulled her hair up and set it with the sticks.

Was that a hint? Marcus didn't know but he didn't care either. "You could always come visit me, you know?" It would be nice to have someone he knew and liked out on the road with him. Even if it was just for a little while.
"I'll be in the States during the summer. Would you like to come with me?"

She thought about it. This summer she was just going to stay home and try to write a romance novel... but what better option than to actually go on a romantic summer holiday to the states! "Well let's see how our date goes, but I'd like that..." She said and winked.
Papa Valon would be furious with her for this.

"Oh you don't think the date is going to go well?" he asked with a grin. Personally he thought it was going great. And he knew that he and Less would have a great time over in the States.
"It'll beeeeeeeee fuuuuuuuuun."

"Well..." She said playing with a stray lock of hair and twirling it. "It's been nearly an hour now... and we've just gotten to dinner..." And I've gotten no kiss... she thought to herself.

Marcus raised his eyebrows. "And...? Apparently he had forgotten something. He chuckled quietly to himself. He remembered how Less was and he had a feeling he knew why she was a little miffed. But all good things came with time. And yeah he was having fun teasing her.
"Don't hold back Less. Do tell me what I am doing wrong."

And?
AND?!?
And just kiss me already! She thought to herself.
"And... well, most men would have shown me they were enjoying their date with me by now..." She leaned forward in her chair and batted her eyelashes at him... making it easier for him to kiss her... "are you enjoying your date so far Marcus?"

He gave her a look of mock confusion. "I don't understand Alessia. I'm enjoying the date very much. If I wasn't, I would have left by now." And probably with some lame excuse as well.
Another chuckle escaped his lips as he watched Less lean forward. Apparently he had teased her enough. Anymore and she was probably going to shove a chopstick up his nose. Marcus leaned forward also. "You're a very persuasive woman, Alessia Lupa." His lips brushed against hers giving her just a hint for later on.

"Tease..." She said with her eyes closed, feeling the brush of his lips. "You are the man my parents warned me about as a little girl..." Basically the same type of man she was strongly attracted to. The food arrived and she began digging in. This close to the full moon she was always hungrier.

"Don't you know it." he said with a grin as he pulled away. The comment about her parents had him giving her an innocent look. "Moi? Why would your parents not trust an upstanding citizen like myself? I used to be a Professor at one of the finest wizarding school's in the world." Albeit not a very good one but they didn't need to know that.

"Right..." She said smiling to him. Upstanding citizen...
She took a piece of Sushi and held it in front of his mouth. "So, your tour of the U.S., are you going to play some big cities?"

He leaned forward and took the sushi into his mouth. At her question he gave a shrug of his shoulders and grinned. "I have no idea. Our manager said we were going on tour and the band just agreed." Marcus had been doing the tour scene for so long that one city pretty much looked like all the others.
"Why? Is there some place in particular you want to go?"

"If I'm going..." She said playfully, though she'd already made up her mind to go... "Then yes... there are some places I'd like to see... Don't you? Or is this not your first time there?" She took the little bottle that was brought and poured the clear liquid in the little Japanese cup and drank it slowly. Her eyes then widened as if she the action of drinking something, made her remember.
"Marcus... I... wouldn't be able to come on tour with you." She said and her face had turned all puppy dog like... no pun intended. "I doubt your tour bus would be equipped to house... someone like me."

"I've been there before." He popped some more sushi into his mouth, chewed and swallowed before he continued on. "I like the cities that run twenty four/seven, you know? Cities that never sleep." Not that he stayed out all night like he used to but if he wanted to then he could.
Marcus was pleased that she was seriously thinking about coming with him. That was until she spoke and he frowned a little. "Less, I'm sure we can accommodate your...needs. I take it you've been away before. Tell me what we need to do and I'll arrange it."

"I have been away before, but it's a hastle and you'll be on a bus won't you? No place for my... Change." Maybe it'd be ok, her travel clearance took forever since she'd changed at Hogwarts. But she could still obtain it. "I could maybe stay in an inn for the days of the change. If you could live without me those three days a month." She smiled mischievously and popped another sushi roll piece into her mouth.

"I don't have to go on the bus with the others. So long as I be at each place on time." And quite frankly, Marcus was over travelling on the bus with his band mates. As much as he liked the fellow members of the band being on the road with them for months on end gets a little much.
Alessia would definitely be a breath of fresh air.
Marcus leaned across the table and smiled at her. "I don't want to miss one second with you Alessia Lupa. But if I have to..." He made a come here gesture with his finger. He wanted to kiss her again.

See... Now that was sweet.
She smiled as he motioned for her to come over, and she leaned forward to meet him. "if you have to...?" She waited for him to finish his sentence. He had always been quite the charmer. She didn't think Ily would have an issue with her seeing Marcus, but she would need to write and ask her blessing before agreeing to this trip. Girl code and all.
