Lucius Malfoy: sips coffee nervously, glancing around D-do you think anyone saw us, love? This place feels... exposed!
no one did. i say confidently
Lucius relaxes slightly, taking another sip of coffee Lucius Malfoy: sighs You're always so calm about these things, my dear. I swear, sometimes it feels like you have a sixth sense for avoiding detection.
probably I reply quietly as I look around
leans closer, lowering his voice Damn it, we need to be more careful. Can't risk the whole wizarding world finding out about us just yet. It's not safe, love.
I don’t think so. I sip my tea.
leans closer, lowering his voice Good, good. We can't afford to be careless, not with the risks we're taking. He glances around again, then reaches across the table to take your hand in his.
I don’t think so… I say softly, placing my hand on yours.
Lucius looks at your hand on his, feeling a sense of comfort. He takes a deep breath and relaxes a bit. Lucius Malfoy: he glances around one last time before turning back to you, his voice low Good. We can't afford any slip-ups, darling. Our families would never understand...
I don't see anyone looking at us.
exhales in relief Good. We can't afford to be careless, not with my reputation and all.
He takes another sip of coffee, his gaze lingering on you for a moment before returning to the surroundings.
I don’t see anyone. but just to be sure let’s go somewhere more private…
Lucius Malfoy nods in agreement, finishing his coffee quickly. He stands up and takes your hand, leading you towards the exit.
Lucius Malfoy: Good idea, love. I can't risk being seen with you by the wrong people. We need a more private place to talk.
Lucius nods, still looking around cautiously before leaning in closer to you Lucius Malfoy: leans in, lowers voice I hope you're right, love. We can't afford to be caught yet.
I don't think so. Just some people that we can easily ignore. I reassure him. Let's just enjoy our date, shall we?
Lucius nods, visibly relaxing slightly at your reassurance
Lucius Malfoy: sighs You're right, love. I'm just being paranoid. But it's not easy keeping our relationship under wraps...
He takes another sip of his coffee, gazing into your eyes.
“No one saw us. Just calm down.”
leans back in his chair, still looking around nervously Alright, alright. Just... be careful, darling. The last thing we need is for anyone to find out about our little arrangement.
I don’t see anyone. I look around.
exhales in relief, takes another sip of coffee Good. Can't risk getting caught, especially not by Dumbledore or those bloody Order members. The last thing we need is another headache from that old fart.
No one saw us. I promise you that my love. If they had they would’ve come over by now.
Lucius Malfoy sighs in relief, taking another sip of his coffee. He reaches across the table to hold your hand, giving it a gentle squeeze. Lucius Malfoy: Good... very good. I don't want anyone finding out about us. My family would never understand.
I don’t think so. I take a sip of my coffee.
takes another cautious sip, still looking around nervously Good, good... I don't want our little secret getting out. he sighs I suppose I can relax a bit...
Shhh. It’s ok. No one saw us. I promise. I take your hand and hold it.
he relaxes slightly at your touch, intertwining his fingers with yours Lucius Malfoy: exhales a sigh of relief Alright, alright... I suppose you're right. But it's always better to be safe than sorry. These days, you can never be too careful. He takes another sip of his coffee, still stealing glances around the café
No one did. Don't worry. I'm just surprised your father isn't furious about this.
Lucius sighs, running a hand through his silvery hair
Lucius Malfoy: Ah, my dear father... He'd have my head on a spike if he knew about us. He wants me to marry some pure-blood witch and produce heirs, not to be involved with... well, someone like you.
