Two dorks going on a first date. Closed to Namine

[He did say they would go on a date and wile he had managed to decide what is going to go on, he was still rather nervous to say the least. Well on the bright side it's not like they were going to do anything they shouldn't, but still... a first date was still a big thing.

Leaving the Slytherin dorms after saying bye to Hikaru, he had started to make his way to the stairs to go up to the basement area. He had told her to wait for him close to the stairs to go to the main floor and he hoped that she was there right now.]

There is a rose tea featured. I think I'll try that.

[She agrees that it's a little too much. Namine preferred more subtle things.]

Rose tea has a very nice flavour and leaves a nice after taste too, so that was a rather good choice.

[If there was one thing Kaoru was good at, it was tea at least. That and playing pranks and jokes. Those had always been fun.]

I might go for the same and a slice of cake, but there are so many choices.

[Namine smiles at him before looking over at the cakes. She'd been so careful about her tea selection she hasn't really put a lot of thought into it. She loves tasting new foods though she doesn't want to cake to over power the taste of her tea.]

You don't have a favorite flavor?

Not in cake, no.

[he had a favourite food, but no one really needed to know what it was exactly. besides he was use to all kinds of cake.]

Sometimes chocolate is just the best to go for.

[Namine nods.]

With a rose tea I might just get vanilla cake. I think they'll go well together.

A plain cake, would make the tea stand out. I'm just hungry for a delicious cake rather than mixing the right combination.

[He smiled as the waitress had come on over and Kaoru ordered.]

[With the ordered place Namine relaxes some. It's still a heavily perfumed room and it isn't the sort of place for wandering eyes. She ends up watching Kaoru, her gaze tracing the curve of his cheek as if to memorize it.]

I don't think you'll be disappointed.

[Judging from the cakes here.]

We'll see.

[He had certain tastes after all. His eyes were trailing over each and every decoration. He was pretty sure he wouldn't come back here after this date, mostly because of the ridiculously overwhelming smell got to him.]

I once had a really nice cake when I was in France, but I don't know what cake it was.

Do you know what was on it or could you describe the taste?

[Her tone is soft but curious. Namine agrees that she doesn’t really want to come back to this place. It’s a little odd in its own way.]

It was one of those cakes that you just can't describe.

[It was the right kind of creamy, mixed with something else.]

[Namine nods, her lips tugging into a smile.]

Maybe you can take me to try it one day.

[She wants to travel and see the art all over the world. She wouldn't mind cake in the process of that.]

[A firm smile is still placed upon his lips.]

Maybe I will. Over the summer, maybe.

That sounds like fun.

[She'd look forward to that though that idea of spending the summer with Kaoru makes her flush brightly. She's now thankful for the dim lighting.

As they spoke the waitress brings a cart over with tea and cake placed on the surface. She slowly places the food and tea in front of each of them before excusing herself. Namine looks down at the tea with a warm smile, it smells amazing.]

[Kaoru had already picked up the fork in order to eat the cake, taking a bite and taking a bite.]

It's not bad. Not great, but good.

[Namine brings the steaming cup of tea to her mouth, her lips curling in a warm smile as the heat fills her nose. She looks up at Kaoru before taking a small tentative sip of the murky liquid.]

The tea is wonderful.

[She hasn't tried her cake yet but it looks adorable.]

[He had taken a sip of the tea, letting the flavours linger on the tongue for a moment.]

Try the cake and see if you like it. Or have both together sometimes it makes it taste better.

[Namine nods her head and lifts her fork. She takes a small corner of the cake, watching as the spongy mass contract and expand under the force of her utensil. She lips the piece to her lips with a smile before taking a bite of the sugar confection.

It's good though it is very sweet. After the first bite she takes another, this one is then followed with a small sip of tea. The texture is a little strange but it isn't bad.]

I think I like the combination.

If you say think, it means your unsure somewhere.

[Taking another bite he moved to take a sip of the drink. Trying to enjoy it would be easier if it weren't for the smell that was in the air.]

Well... I like them both.

[She laughs nervously.]

It's hard to saw which I like better with one bite.

[he nodded slightly, he'll leave it at that for that conversation at least, but now it left him with soemthing else. What to talk about next. It was much easier to talk to his brother than anyone else because he knew what his brother liked. He assumed they could talk about art, maybe? That would do.]

So..How is your drawings going?

[Art is a good place to start.]

I'm trying a lot of new things. I want to see if it can lead me into a career. I'd like to travel too and maybe see what I can find.

[She lifts her tea to her lips.]

Are you going to go into fashion like your family?

Ah, my family doesn't all do fashion. Just my mother. My grandmother...did something with enchanting plants and the like, which is why I do well in herbology.

Not sure what my father does.

[he forgets he is ever there sometimes, if he had to be honest.]

But...I might, but I have options.

What do you like best then?

[She hadn't known about his grandmother and the thought of Kaoru working with plants makes her smile.]

Since pranking people won't count as a career, unless I work in a joke shop or something, I guess what my mother does.

[Though working at a joke shop was tempting sometimes, but he was use to a certain life style.]

I really like the design of yours I’ve seen.

[She remarks with a bright smile, her fork piercing her cake and taking another bite. She eats the sweet slowly, savoring every piece of it.]
