"Maybe. Didn't want to intrude." Harry chuckles nervously

"It's fine, honestly. You're good company." August smiles

"You sure?" Harry raises his eyebrow, looking out the window of the car.

"I'm sure." August shrugs, "and plus I feel bad you've eaten me so many times and I haven't done anything for you."

"No, it's fine. I've got my hand and hentai." Harry chuckles

August looks over at him, frowning in the most amused way.

"I'm joking, but no it's fine. I'm fine." Harry chuckles

"No, my treat."

"Maybe later."

"Well of course not right now!" August exclaims, laughing

"Duh." He mocks

"So, after the dinner. It's going to be really short, like I said. My friend booked this hall for her like... baby? He's turning like 6 and I need to get a present before we go." August explains

"Oh, nice." Harry smiles

"Yea, I'm a mess." August groans

When they arrive at the restaurant it's very short. Just time for a small coffee and mints, they leave to a nearby Target to pick up some gifts before heading to the hall.

When they arrive, Harry feels a pang of anxiety but August grips his hand which somewhat soothes her nerves.

"Should you be my date?" August stares at Harry's face.

"Wh-"

"You look roughly 20... so I think that's fine." August nods, mumbling a soft "Come on."

Harry walks through the hall, that smells of bleach. He notices that August let his hand go a while ago.

"How do I look?" August asks

"Really good." Harry nods, smiling

"Thank you." August sighs, pushing a piece of hair behind her ear.

Her wedges make a soft noise as she walks. He notices her toenails are painted a glossy white.

"Hello, hello!" A woman smiles, her belly bulging throughout her shirt.

"Hi, Marosyl." August smiles, kissing her cheek.

"And who's this?" Marosyl asks

"My date, hope you don't mind." August smiles

"Not at all." Marosyl smiles

"Come, come. We've got food, presents go over there and come meet my daughters." Marosyl smiles

"Can you please put the present on the table Harry?" August asks

Harry only nods, grabbing the large gift bag. He was too distracted by the texture of her dress in Target to even remember the items she got.

Once he's finished, his aching eyes that don't have their glasses begin to search for August. He tells himself to look for a pink dress.

"So, who is this one now?" Marosyl asks

"Names Harry, next door neighbor." August shrugs

"I did it." Harry says, from behind her she turns around giving him a small praise.

"This is, Maria, Magdelena, and Mati." Marosyl introduces

"Hello," They greet August warmly

"And this is her boyfriend- Harry."
