Newt Scamander woke up around early morning to feed his creatures. Getting up from his bed the man walked over to where his suitcase was left lying on the ground in between the bed and desk. He opened it to reveal a set of stairs the led down towards his shed.
Once inside the shed Newt grabbed the food for all kinds of his creatures, starting from the Mooncalf and Occamy, to the Murtlaps and Nundus. Once he was done with his rounds he sat at his desk and wrote a letter.
Dear, Tina
Newt looked at his writing and shook his head. What was he doing? Writing a letter to Tina when she was only a few minutes away from his lodging. He could leave right now and apparate to her building in a second. So many ways and yet he continued writing.
Queenie told me you didn't have to work today. Such wonderful news honestly, so I was wondering if I could see you today for lunch. Say 12:30 PM. If you choose not to go please respond to this letter. I'll be watching for the letters thank you as always.
Yours always,
Newt Scamander.
He shook his head and whistled for his owl. As the golden brown owl flew in he picked up a treat and let the owl take the letter from his hands. The owl knew who it was for as soon as it took the letter so it flew out immediately without any thought and eventually came back with another letter short after. Most likely an hour or two after the original letter was sent out.
Dear, Mr. Scamander.
If you don't mind but don't you have plans today at all except I? Why take me out to lunch when your own a tight schedule these few weeks. All the less, I would be honored to have lunch with you. Apparate at my flat when you have the chance and I'll take you to a place that serves both tea and coffee, because I know how much you could use a cup of tea at the moment. Thank you for the offer.
Sincerely,
Tina Goldstein.
Grabbing his coat, suitcase and lastly his wand Newt Scamander apperated to her apartment building immediately excited to see the two sisters once again. With the Pickett in his pocket, his wand in his sleeve, suitcase in hand, he entered the apartment building very quietly to make sure Mrs. Esposito wouldn't hear him. Accidently Newt stepped upon a wooden step that creaked a little too loudly and he heard the door of Mrs. Esposito door open as she called out " Who's their? Tina? Queenie? Is that you? What about Jane? Who's in my apartment building?"
Racing up to Tina's door, he saw it fling open as Tina replied "It's just me Especito, I'm coming home from the Bakery as always."
"Oh deary sorry for intruding you know me when it comes to this place. Well have a nice day" and with that she shut the door and went on her merry way.
Newt looked at Tina and just stared at her. It was like he was falling in love with her all over again. Since the last time he saw her, she changed a little. For starters her eyes lit up with more excitement from getting her job back, along with her hair being cropped short in a bob like fashion. Speaking of her fashion choice, her clothing was entirely different now. Currently she was dressed in a white button up shirt, black slacks, accompiended with black dress shoes and a black clenched trench coat to complete the look. In Newt's eyes she seemed more beautiful than ever. Yet in her mind she was freaking out about how she looked. Considering her plain, unbeautiful and fit to be anyone's wife.
Queenie came out from the corner and smiled.
"Hello Mr. Scamander. So nice to see you again."
"Thank you Queenie. It's so nice of you guys to have me over, even if it's short lived. Are we still on for breakfast to talk about that No-Maj issue?" Newt asked tilting his head lower towards the ground staring at his feet.
"What do you mean breakfast? What issue for a No-Maj? Is there something you guys aren't telling me" Tina said looking at the two putting her hands on her hips.
"Nothing to worry about Teenie, Newt just informed me of something that I should know about that baker down the road. You know the one you you've been spying on lately." Queenie piped up giggling softly to herself as she blushed. "Don't worry Newt, my sister could never fall in love with a No-Maj, she prides herself into her work to much."
"I do not Queenie, and stop reading people's minds, they do not appreciate it and you know it." Sighing she grabbed Newt's arm and pulled him inside finally and out of the hallway. "You may be a Legilimens, but you can please try and stop it every once in a while."
"You know I try Teenie dear, I just can't help it, especially when one feels strong emotions" she wiggled her eyebrows at Newt before laughing. "Have fun on your date, I have a bakery to go to for some delicious Nifflers" and with that Queenie put on her pink coat and left with the door closing behind her.
Finally it was just Newt and Tina alone in the apartment. Looking up Tina stared into Newt's eyes and blushed. Looking away fast she never realized how much Newt has changed in the past year since he's been gone. He looked more confidant, strong in a way and his eyes were the most brightest she'd ever seen them. He was handsome in a very dorky way. Giggling to herself she brushed her hair behind her ear and asked "so when do you want to leave?"
"I have something for you first before we leave. Remember my book I promised you? It's published finally and I have it here. With me" and with that he pulled out a red hard covered book that read 'Fantastic Beast and Where to Find Them' by Newt Scamander. Handing it to her she realized that it was the first copy that was originally meant for him to keep.
"Newt, isn't this yours? Why are you giving it to me?"
"Well Tina, I promised you the book and I wanted to give you the first copy that was ever made, plus I have my own" and with that he pulled out a leather bound book that was falling apart. The one he always wrote in when he was down in his suitcase. "This has all the information I need for my creatures plus everything is up here" tapping his head he smiled. "Anyways shall we leave now?"
Nodding her head she sat the book down on the table next to the door and took his arm. With that they appeared to the nearest coffee/tea shop and ordered. And with that they finally got talking again. Talking like Newt never left America.
