Harry put on that goofy smile of his for a moment and was about to say something when the timer went off.

"Oh, sounds like dinner's ready."

He flicked his wand and silverware, napkins, and other table stuffs set themselves. Then he crossed to the table and pulled Mandy's usual seat out for her.

"Have a seat," he said, offering her the chair.

"So formal, Harry," Mandy said, taking her seat. She was rather impressed at all this: clean house, homecooked meal, being seated. It seemed like a lot of trouble to go through just to get her to go to a party. Maybe there was more to it than that. Maybe Harry was inspired to be more proactive. That would be simply wonderful. "There isn't some horrible secret you're waiting to tell me until after you've fed me, is there?"

Well, he did have a secret, but he certainly couldn't tell her that he'd joined the Order. Or what the Order was.

"No," he said, shrugging his shoulders and guiding her chair forward as she sat. "I'm just in a good mood, I suppose."

Harry went to the kitchen and put dinner on to plates. He carried the plates and spelled the wine bottle and a glass for himself to follow.

"Voila," he said as he set the plate in front of her. He took his own seat.
