Wesley took out a few galleons and left them on the counter to pay for his drink, then stepped down from the barstool. "All right, then, let's go," he said. He headed toward the door and quickly opened it for her.

Evangeline smiled at him as he opened the door. "Thank you," she said simply and started to walk slowly so that Wesley could catch up.

Tristan walked toward the Three Broomsticks and stopped as he saw Evangeline coming out, with another man behind her. He ducked around the corner and peeked out to see that she was with Wesley. So he really was alive... Tristan stayed where he was and tried to listen to their conversation.

Wesley caught up to her and shyly took her hand. "So tell me, Evangeline, where do you think you'd like to go on Friday? Any ideas?"

She smiled at him when she took her hand. "Well, the Hot Panini is pretty good," she said. "And I think that would be a good place to go, unless you want to come back to the Three Broomsticks and eat. I don't know of anywhere else that's good."

Wesley thought for a moment. "I haven't been to the Hot Panini yet, actually. But Natalie told me she liked it. So I think that would be a good place to go. I guess I'll pick you up at your house and we can go there for dinner. How does that sound?"

"That sounds good," said Evangeline. She smiled again. "I've been there three times before. They have good service too. The waitresses are really nice. Cass and I have been there twice during our lunch break."

"All right, then," Wesley said, smiling. "That's what we'll do." He felt his cheeks grow warm and felt about as awkward and shy as he had when he was at Hogwarts. "Well, I guess... let's walk to your house now..." he said.

Tristan ducked the rest of the way down the alleyway, rolling his eyes in disgust. Wes hadn't changed a bit. He was still the same shy, nerdy kid he had gone to school with. How he'd managed to get married to a girl like Olivia and have two children was completely beyond him. And now, after all this time, he was finally getting his chance with Evangeline. A wicked thought crossed his mind, and he broke into a smile. Maybe, just maybe, he'd pay a visit to the Hot Panini on Friday night...

Evangeline gave him another smile as they started walking to her house. The last time someone walked her home was the time that she met Tristan. She shook the memory from her head. That was something she didn't really want to be remembering at the moment. Finally the reached her house and she slowed down even more once they got to the door. She turned and faced Wesley. "Thanks for walking me home," she said with a smile.

"It was my pleasure," Wesley said, smiling back at her. He was feeling a bit nervous again, and it was actually getting a bit embarassing. He was a grown man with two daughters and yet, she still made him feel like a 13 year old. He took her hand and pressed it to his lips in a light kiss. "It was good seeing you again. I already can't wait until Friday."

Evangeline flushed as he kissed her hand. She had to be admit that she was feeling shy again, but she couldn't let that show through. "It was good seeing you again. I can't wait to finally meet Natalie, and I'm really excited about Friday night," she said with a smile.

"I'm excited about it, too," Wesley said. "And it's been a long time since I've had anything to be excited about. I'll pick you up at seven, then." He hesitated, not really wanting to leave yet. "I, uh... I guess I'll see you then." He gave her another smile, then turned to leave.

She gave him another smile. "Hey Wes," said Evangeline as he turned around to leave. "Um, you can come in if you want to. I have some cookies that I made yesterday night, and to be honest, I don't think I can eat them all myself."

Wesley grinned. "Why, yes, thank you. That would be lovely. I can't turn down home made cookies."

Evangeline smiled and unlocked her door and waiting until Wesley entered to close the door. She flipped on a light. "I was in the mood for cooking last night, and I cooked more than I should had," she said with a laugh. "Just make yourself at home. I have some Earl Grey tea left, milk, and water. What would you like to drink?"

Wesley walked over and sat down on the couch. "Some tea would be nice, thank you," he said warmly. "You have a lovely place here," he remarked, looking around.

"Now that it's clean," she said with a smile. Evangeline disappeared into the kitchen and put some water on the stove as she pulled out the cookies. Soon, the water was ready and she finished the tea and put everything on a tray and carefully carried it into the living room. She sat it down on the coffee table and she took a seat on the couch.

Wesley smiled and took a cookie. "It's been a while since I had a good cookie," he commented, taking a bite. "Mmmmm, these are really good!" He laughed. "So, what else has been going on? Have you seen any of the other people we knew back in school? I'm afraid I lost touch with most of them."

"Thanks," said Evangeline. "Well, unfortunately, I've only seen Tristan. He's the only one from school, well other than Cassidy. Tristan is a doctor at St. Mungo's."
