"Where are we going?" Zacharias Smith asked Susan Bones as she pulled him away from the Hufflepuff common room. "Please tell me that you're not dragging me to the Room of Requirement," he said suggestively, winking at her.

"No," Susan replied, a smile dancing on her lips. "I have something I want to show you." She tightened her grip on his fingers and took him to the grounds. "Did you bring the blanket like I told you to?"

Zacharias nodded silently, pulling it from his bag that he had brought. Susan smiled, let go of his hand and ducked behind a wall. "Sue?" Zacharias called nervously, shuffling his feet. What are you doing?"

"You'll see!" she called from behind the wall, her voice slightly muffled.

Zacharias didn't say a word back, he just wrung his hands together and twitched from one foot to the other. He didn't like to be alone. Especially not on the Hogwarts grounds. That was just one thing that he could not stand.

"All right. I hope you're hungry." Zacharias looked over and saw Susan emerge with a massive picnic basket. "Don't look so flabbergasted. This is supposed to be cute."

Zacharias laughed as she rummaged through it. He laid out the blanket and beckoned for her to sit on it. "So why are we outside? Inside not romantic enough for you?"

"No. I wanted to show you this," she whispered, pointing to the sun that was turning the sky into a deep red.

"The sunset," Zacharias said quietly, his eyes wide.

"Our first one together," Susan clarified, turning his face towards her. She kissed him on the lips just as the sun was going down. It was a picture perfect moment and they wouldn't have it any other way.
