The Broomsticks was never going to be a romantic date-night destination--not if you were an adult. It was a reasonable enough pub, and students might flock here on weekends but when it came to a drink and a bite to eat they had few choices. Still, they had redecorated slightly in effort to capitalize on Valentine's day. Little flames flickered in jars on the red tablecloths, a few other odds and ends which really didn't interest Alex very much, as he flicked his gaze around the room without pausing to really take in the surroundings, because at that moment Elle walked in.
The auror stood immediately, unable to take his eyes off his date. She was small and dainty, but anyone who mistook that for fragile was in for a rude awakening. She looked gorgeous, he knew he probably looked like a loon, staring at her, but he couldn't believe his luck sometimes. As she finally reached their table Alex reached out to take her hand, leaning down to give her a brief kiss before pulling her chair out, seating first Elle and then himself.
"Hey, y-you look- look great."
