They appeared in front of a lush, rolling valley. A small building was in the distance, at the end of a very beautiful path. Lined with gold and ruby and crystal, Sophie felt like royalty.
"Beautiful, isn't it?" Fitz asked, taking her hand and leading her down the center of the path.
"Yeah, it's gorgeous. Where are we?" Sophie asked, looking around. The sky was a beautiful rainbow of colors and patterns, swirling together into the most beautiful sunset.
"This is Havet-Foot. And the restaurant we are going to will have no one else there but us, so you don't have to worry." Said Fitz.
"What's the restaurant called?"
"Cup-L's Keep. It's a play on the phrase 'Couple's Keep'. I've always wanted to come. Apparently it's a great first date spot." He said as he slowly let go of her hand.
Cup-L's Keep came closer and closer, and when they were at the door, Sophie noticed that it was one of the smallest buildings she had ever seen in the elvin world. Maybe the whole thing was the size of her bedroom.
"See, no one else here." Fitz said as he opened the door for her, allowing her to step in and look around.
Plates of food sat in the corner, still warm and steaming. Lavish cups sat waiting at one of three glittering tables, dressed with adorned tablecloths, impeccably folded napkins, and laced velvet chairs.
"This place really is designed for first dates." Sophie said as Fitz pulled out her chair for her, and motioned for her to sit.
"I told you so. This entire building is designed for couples to be alone, anonymous, and for them to be able to keep things private. Or at least, that's what I've heard and read."
"Thank you, Fitz. For everything."
"Thank you for coming. Now, do you want to get some food?"
He stood up as she nodded, pulled out her chair, and they walked to gather the plates of food. Hand in hand.
