hp_nextgen100's Prompt #351: "Dinner"
- - -
“Wait, you’re not going to be here, next week?” said Lily Luna Potter to her brother, as they tucked into their dad’s delicious pasta bake.
“Nope,” James Sirius Potter responded. “Zoe’s coming around the flat for… dinner.”
“You’re missing family dinner for that?” Lily sniffed.
“The advantages of having your own place,” James said, thinking his parents would like him to emphasis this. “You can have friends around whenever you like.”
“But… James you can’t cook.”
“Al can. It can’t be that difficult.”
Al arched an eyebrow.
“You’ll still help right?” James said. After Lily had departed.
Al remained silent.
That Friday, there was a ring at James’s door. He answered it and did a double-take; there stood Zoe, wearing a little black dress.
“Hi Zoe,” he said. “You look great!”
“Thanks! I’m looking forward to this dinner you’re cooking,” Zoe said.
At that very second, there was a loud bang from the kitchen. James and Zoe stared at each other in silence for a second. Then the smoke alarm started wailing.
“So how do you feel about take out?” James said smoothly. “Indian? Chinese?”
Zoe Chen stared at a moment than laughed.
“Whatever you like!” she said, coming inside.
