Meeting Carrie

[ratboy_peter]

If Peter felt nervous about meeting his dad every few years, he felt doubly nervous about meeting Carrie, hisheart felt like a drum pounding hard and fast in his chest blocking out nervous feelings through pacing round the front of the Leaky Cauldron as though he was a man driven by insanity.

Carolyn was so excited! She got up bright and early to have a nice long bubble bath and then get herself all dolled up -not at all unusual- to meet Peter. She put gave her hair a nice bit of bounce and dressed in a baby pink summer dress which tied up behind her neck and back with lace. She was ready 5 minutes before she had to leave and decided to play a song on the grand piano to pass that time.

When the clock read 11 o'clock exactly, she smiled getting up and taking the portkey from the coffee table and getting herself to the Leaky Cauldron.

"Up what?" she asked from behind her boyfriend with a large smile on her soft features. He really was just too cute.

Peter nearly jumped out of his skin--and the blue suit jacket and jeans he'd been wearing. He turned to look at her and blushed.

"Oh, Carrie, I--I'm sorry, I forgot you were so good at being on time" he said, the boy had combed his hair, or rather tried, it was evident he'd tried to make an impression, his face clean, suit clean and ironed.

He smiled at her, scratching his head then smiled looking at her properly this time, "wow...you look so pretty in that dress--not that you're not always pretty I was just--"

His mind gave in, as his ramble reached it's limits and the blush became worse.:

I. Give. Up.

"Of course!" she smiled, so happy to see him, "Being fashionably late only happens when planned. Like for a ball or something and you want to make that final lasting impression. Otherwise there is a mass frenzy of paranoia and well, it can get messy." Where she got her information was not exactly clear but it did seem to make some sort of sense.

He said she looked pretty... Carolyn giggled lightly as he tried to correct himself and for no real reason. She leaned into him, placing a kiss on his cheek, "Thank-you Petey, you look rather handsome yourself."

Peter felt his heart swell, and he felt more confident in those moments he took her hand in responce and squeezed it feeling so much better already.

not that it showed, outwardly he was still in a fit of nerves. "Err...er..thanks...you really think so...? the suit was once my dads...both small...or rather he was small..." he smiled lightly, "so, where would you like to go?" he asked her kindly.
