(Hogsmeade) That Girl

[Bradyn Reed]

[ what a long overdue thread ]
Bradyn had finally bucked up the courage to ask Bry on an actual date. He didn't really know how to do it, and even though he had a few friends that were gay or girls, he couldn't give up his pride and ask for tips. Instead, he just asked her more indirectly to meet him by the fountain in Hogsmeade. So now, Bray stood leaning against a nearby shop with his hands in his pockets, watching the fountain. He would be sitting by it but he never enjoyed getting wet and spritz by the water. Just a cat thing, he guessed.

Bray sighed and checked the square's clock. It couldn't be too long now, it was about five minutes 'till 1, the time he said she should meet him. He had to admit, he was pretty excited even though he didn't really have anything planned. He'd probably just wing it, which usually ended up good for him. Made it seem like he had a big surprise planned, when he actually didn't really. For some reason, girls liked surprises on dates (at least, I do) and something told him today was going to be a fun day.

It was almost one o'clock as Brair made her way to Hogsmeade. She didn't want to be late meeting Bradyn but she had lost track of time while getting ready. She was estatic about their date and thought she'd look at least look semi-nice for him.

As she neared the fountain, she caught a glimpse of Bradyn leaning against a nearby shop. With a smile she walked up to him, hands in the pockets of her faded blue jeans. "Hey," she said leaning against the wall next to him. "So, what do you have planned?" she asked, tilting her head slightly to the side.

Bradyn watched the fountain rather boredly as he continued to wait, his hand reaching up to his hair to make sure it didn't curl back up. Like in most 'special occasions' he had straightened his hair, as he was always told that it looks loads better that way. Actually, Bray had done a lot of effort to look nice. Flicking his hair out of his face, he noticed Bry walking up. "Hey." He smiled, keeping his hands in his pockets.

Bray laughed a little. "Um.. you'll see." He said, covering up for his lack of plan. They could do the usual first date thing, hit the T hree Broomsticks, get a butterbeer and talk for a while. But that was pretty much the usual for them. And he wasn't going to let her drag him around and window shop, that's for sure. Bray was enough of a 'pansy', or so he's heard, already.

Briar twirled a strand of hair around her finger as she looked at Bradyn. She noticed that he had straightened his hair today. She felt a smile creep across her face as she looked at him. "By the way, you look great, Bray."

Briar laughed, "So, you really have something planned for us?" she asked him, "Where to first?" she questioned. She really wondered what he has planned for them, if he had something planned in the first place. Either way, she knew they'd have fun, they always did.

Bradyn grinned at her comment about him looking nice, and he was glad she noticed. "Thanks, you look amazing too, Bry. As always." He said, and chuckled a little.

"Yes, yes, of course, I have plans." He said, and cleared his throat a bit to cover up for the lie. Bray would have to think fast, and yet come up with a good plan now. This was going to be troublesome. "Well, I thought we could start with a drink.. but where is up to you. but I'd say Maddam Puddifoots is out." Bray said, laughing and winking a bit. "I won't go to that girlie place unless you drag me there."

Briar blushed when Bradyn complimented her in return. When he said that they could start with a drink, she had decided that they'd get some tea, until Bray said Madam Paddifoots is out. Bry made a slight pout and bit her lower lip in thought. She smiled and looked up at Bradyn, "I guess it's the Three Broomsticks then," she decided.

Bry would have pulled him into Madam Paddifoots, but she didn't want him to get angry, besides, she could get tea at the Three Broomsticks. Tea was Tea afterall. Bry stood there waiting for him to lead the way, after all, he was the guy.
