Okay, so this was definitely a terrible idea, but Christina was doing it anyway. She'd skipped the camping trip with her brother and Narcissa and now she was standing across the street from the restaurant and it was just after seven. She was going to go in and then she'd be on a maybe date with the Headmaster of her school who was technically old enough to be her father, if he's knocked someone up in high school.

Christina took a deep breath and crossed the street. She hadn't gotten dressed up for nothing. She could always just change her mind about volunteering in the office if this turned weird. Weirder. Christina stepped inside the restaurant, glancing around until she saw Tom, tucked away in a quiet corner of the place, and made her excuses to the hostess as she walked across the room to greet him. She definitely hadn't misunderstood the invitation, right? "This place is nice on a Saturday at seven," she said, stopping beside his table.

	"No. It's not complicated." Tom told her, shaking his head. "It's not complicated at all. It may be a bit complicated if you tell Narcissa. You run the risk of her telling her sister about it and Bellatrix would love nothing more than to ruin my life." He shrugged and glanced around. "As long as you're okay seeing someone like me. I'm fine with it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I won't tell Narcissa. She's too much of a gossip," Christina said, shaking her head. "And I don't want to be responsible for ruining your life. I like you too much." She raised an eyebrow at Tom. "Someone like you?" Christina repeated. "What's that? I think I'm fine with it, but clarify for me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"A Headmaster at an all girls academy. An orphan with no sense of a real family." Tom told her, looking her over as he took a drink of his water. "Someone who forgets to eat and sleeps in his office a lot of the time because he just doesn't feel like going home."

He gave her a faint smile. "An old man like me. If you can handle all of that, I think we're going to have fun together."

	Christina shook her head, smiling back at Tom. "You're not that old. The rest of it is just... facts about you. I can handle it. I want us to have fun together." She picked up her wine glass again. "We'll have lots of time to get to know each other in between you working me hard after school." (Reply to this)(Parent)
