A/N: There might have been a slight confusion with my last story. This is a series. There will be a lot of more parts.

"Sarah, its five past four where is he?"
"Hazel Hun, take a chill pill. He's probably just running a little late."
"Do you think he stood me up, I mean maybe he found someone else…"
"Hazel please be quiet, I'm trying to write something."
Hazel was thinking furiously. He couldn't have found out about me could he? I haven't told anyone, I haven't even looked at my wand in six years. I gave that stuff up. But he's from England. No I've changed my name and Hairstyle. And anyways how would he know. Hazel finally decided that she was just freaking out because she hadn't been on a date since she broke up with Viktor Crum.
"Hazel? Earth to Hazel?" Hazel was snapped back to reality by the sound of Andy's voice.
"Is about time you got hear." Sarah said irritably, "Hazel hasn't shut up about you."
"Shall we go Hazel?"
"Ok." She absolutely loved listening to that English accent. She hadn't heard it is six years. "So where are we going?" She asked as the walked out of the dentist office.
"I found the cutest little place in Marblehead. Starbucks. Perhaps you've been there?"
"No I don't get out much."
"Well its very nice. It's not to far so I thought we'd walk. Its such a nice day out." I knew perfectly well that Marblehead was at least two miles from here, but I didn't say anything. He probably didn't have a car.
"How long are you going to be in town?"
"As long as my work requires." They walked on, sometimes chatting about England or work or sometimes walking in silence. Finally after an hours walk they reached it.
"This looks nice." She said as they walked in.
"May I help you?" Said a man behind the counter.
"Yes, I'll have a hot Chocolate with whipped cream."
"I'll have a cappuccino."
"Separate or together?"
"Separate" Hazel said, just as Andy said "Together." The man just looked at us.
"Hazel let me get this." He paid for Hazel's Cappuccino and his hot chocolate.
"Lets get these seats by the window. They're my favorite. You can watch all the people go by."
"Do you come here often?"
"I've been here a couple times, but by myself."
By the time that Hazel had finished her cappuccino she was certain about something. She had fallen in love with the beautiful stranger.

"I'd like to see you again soon Hazel." Andy said as he walked her back to her apartment. He must get a lot of exercise, she thought. All this walking.
"I'd like that too."
"How about Saturday. We can go for a proper dinner. I'll pick you up at seven. Ok?"
"That's fine. Oh this is it." They had come to her apartment.
"Goodbye Hazel." He lifted her hand and kissed it.
"Bye Andy."

"I'm afraid to ask how it went. You might say 'he might have been cute, but he's a jerk so I told him to get a life, then I walked home by myself.'"
"Well, Sarah, if you're expecting it you're going to be gravely disappointed."
"You actually survived through coffee with a stranger, and still like him?"
"Yup, and on Saturday we are going out to dinner."
"Yes Hazel!" Screamed Sarah and gave her a high five. "Now on Saturday you'll have to let me do your hair, and you'll need a new dress, and make up…"
* * *
"Hazel don't you think that it might be time to start getting ready?"
"Sarah, Its four. He won't be here for three hours."
"Well you don't want to be rushed. Now go take a shower and don't dry your hair. I need to work with wet hair."
By 6:30 Hazel was almost ready, she had her hair done in a messy bun with pieces hanging by her face. Sarah had done her make up well. It didn't look like she was wearing any, but at the same time made her eyes and lips stand out more.
"Now," Sarah announced, "All you need is the dress. I'll let you borrow this one." Sarah held up a black spaghetti strap dress that fell to just above the knees. "It will look perfect on you. Not to fancy, and yet not to casual."
When Hazel put it on she had to admit that it did look good. It seemed to me made for her. It hugged and fell loosely in all the right places.
"Oh god." Hazel moaned as the doorbell rang. That him, who am I fooling, he will never like me.
Sarah took the liberty of letting him in. "Wow Hazel, you look, great."
She gave him what she hoped was a flattering smile. "Thanks."
"Bye Hazel have a good time, and don't get back to late."
"Thanks Mother Sarah."
Dinner was wonderful. Andy took her to The Landing a nice restaurant right on Marblehead harbor. They walked there of course. Hazel figured that in a relationship with Andy there would be a lot of walking. Hazel got lobster and it was delicious. She had had lobster a few times before, but this place made it excellent.
"How do you find all these great places to eat?" Hazel asked as they stood looking out over Marblehead Harbor. "It seems like you take women out every night to fancy dinners."
"Nope you're the first. At least while I have been in America." She smiled at him, and was happy to see him blush.
"Do you think we could do this again?" Hazel asked.
"I'd really like to. Do you want me to walk you back to your place?"
"Sure, if it's not out of your way."
"It isn't. Can I have your phone number?" His bright blue eyes stared into hers. Something about those eyes…
