That doesn't sound promising....

No one had ever made an appointment with her. When Angelo had asked if she could meet him downstairs in the garden at 3, of course she'd agreed...though she didn't know why he couldn't just walk up to her and ask her instead of *calling* her . She hadn't seen him since Halloween...she had to assume he was avoiding her, that she'd crossed some major line and he was finally going to tell her that waht she'd done was inappropriate...and he had the right...but hell, it wasn't like she was a trogladite.

She headed down to the garden at 5 to 3, to wait.

	Angelo has been there for ten minutes already, a rectangular box with a pink ribbon tied around it tucked under one arm, sitting on a bench. As soon as he sees her, he stands up and smiles. "Charlotte, thank you for meeting me. I promise this shouldn't take long." He knew very well she wasn't busy, but it was still important to be polite. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	She shifted a little nervously before heading over. "Look..I'm sorry, okay? Just..dont be pissed, you were just being so nice...I thought we were having a moment and if I messed that up..I'm sorry..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He raises a hand. "Please. You didn't do anything wrong. I was a bundle of nerves the entire evening." He hands the box to her. "These are for you." Inside are half a dozen long-stemmed roses, three peach colored, three orange. "Charlotte, would you like to go out on a date?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She stared at them, for a long moment, then at him for an equally long moment. "...you're asking me out?? All this to ask me out? Angelo, I could just kill you, I thought you hated me!" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	His eyes widen, and he pales slightly. "I'm... very very sorry. I thought 'all this' was being polite." Well, she hasn't said 'no'... "I think you're very nice, Charlotte. You are sensitive, kind, intelligent, and very determined." A pause. "You're also very pretty. I would be honored to take you out." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Okay.." really...it was that easy...she brought up the flowers to smell thim. "These are beautiful.." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Angelo starts to smile. "So is it safe to assume you can tolerate my... 18th century sensibilities?" He watches her smell the roses with satisfaction. "Would a picnic lunch followed by a matinee be acceptable?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"If we can eat inside somewhere..." it was november and she was from a tropical island...she was still cold from halloween. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I... am sure we can figure something out." Angelo replies. "So... I'll let you know when I have something scheduled." This was all much more painless than he expected. It was disarming. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"...we could just stay in..? Watch netflix..?" The poor guy couldn't have a lot of money...not after dinner the night before. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Angelo tries to hide his relief. "That.. that would be nice I suppose." He fidgets. "I really would be happy to take you out though, I don't want you to think otherwise." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"We're 17...I'm not expecting Tavern on the Green and a Braodway show...a date is about spending time *together*..now about how much you can get a guy to spend, that's just not right..it's not the kind of girl I want to be. Netflix...is *perfect*, they just put this BBC miniseries of Sherlock Holmes up...I don't know how someone that asexual can still have so many women after him."

	Once he's done marveling at how sweet Charlotte is, Angelo's interest picks up at the recommendation. "Holmes? I'd like that." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Great.." And the things he could do having a full kitchen on hand..? "I'm looking forward to it.." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Oh that advantage isn't lost on him either. "So... when would you like to? Not having to make reservations makes it a bit more accessible." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Tonight would be fine." He smiles and nods. "I'll need to do some shopping to make dinner. Seven o'clock?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lottelensherre 2011-11-05 07:06 pm UTC (link)
	"Or we could just start now and I could go with you...? Id love to know more about what you love..the only thing I've ever gone shopping for is cheetos..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Angelo stops briefly to look absolutely horrified. "Oh Charlotte.... yes, that would be fine." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Great...give me a few minutes to put this in water and grab a coat..? Ill be five minutes..?" She smiled before turning, heading inside with her flowers. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He smiles, taking her hand and kissing it. "I will be waiting." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Hmm..hand fetish? She jogged upstairs to put the flowers in water and find a sweater and jacket before throwing on lip gloss and rushing back down. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	not_adorable 2011-11-05 11:21 pm UTC (link)
	It's not a hand fetish! He's just being chaste. He'll still be grinning like a fool by the time she gets back. He offers her his arm. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She held up a finger before she took his arm and straightend it before taking his hand with a smile. "This is how we do it in the 21st century, Gallahad." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Angelo blushes pink. "I find myself unable to argue. Are you ready?" He tenses the part of his brain for his power. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
