Disclaimer I don't own Harry Potter.
Severus and Hermione were inside a small, dinner in Downtown London. It was far better eating in the muggle world, then their world. The two could just sit down and eat in peace without being continuously swarmedby reporters and paparazzies. Merlin, some people just can't leave people alone. Severus, hated it deeply, he couldn't go one day in Diagon Alley without someone trying to make an advance on him or someone giving him death threats. Yes, death threats were normal, but they happened more offend now.
As the two sat down to ordered, Severus put his normal, and calm air together, but inside his head was a completely different story.
"She keeps looking at me. What does she see? Shit, is there something on my shirt. No, don't look down. Merlin, I knew I shouldn't have wore this. God, she is beautiful. Should I said she beautiful. Merlin should I pay for her meal to? Wait I'll look like I don't think she can support herself if I pay, but if I don't pay for her meal I'll look like an asshole. Stopping, eating bread sticks, you eat four already. Do you think she knows you're nervous. Does she knows that this is your first date? She is smiling, her smile is beautiful. Wait is this a good smile or a bad smile?"
"Where is that waiter with are food! He has been gone far to long This restaurant is horrible, should have picked a different restaurant. Quick, Severus, think of something to say to her. Engrave with conversations, she's looking at you. Say something. What should I say? I don't know, just say something."
"Hermione, have you ever eaten here?" Severus asked. "Have you ever eaten here? That's the best you could think of? Merlin, stupid, stupid!"
"No, I haven't. But it's a nice little restaurant." Hermione smiled.
"God, she can tell. She can see past all of this." Severus was panicking inside his head, he didn't know if saying she looks beautiful is going to fast. He didn't know if holding her was going to far. He was beginning to think why did she even agree to go out to eat with him. He was beginning to wondered if she thought this was a date or not.
"Severus..." Hermione said, she began a conversation about new recent discoverys in potions, and her recent trip to Australia. Severus entered the conversation about his recent trip to Nepal, as well as his studies.
They had a beautiful dinner, and everything went well, that they didn't even noticed the judgement looks from a few people in the restaurant. After they finished eating Severus' mind was racing again. He didn't know whether he should kiss her or not. He didn't have much time to think about it for too long as a set a lips pressed against his.
