A little Summer Fun

It had been a week since he school had been out and his father was able to find him a place to stay and of course he had a guardian that was living there too so his father was always aware of where he was at.

He was going a little crazy because he had not seen Blake since they parted at school and he had been so busy getting things around for his new place.

He decided to send Blake a OWL asking her to meet him near the riverfront. He wanted to take her someone special as a surprise, he just hoped she like it.

He was leaning against the railing near the boat dock where he told her to meet him and now he just had to wait.

When Blake got an owl to meet Ivano, she did just that. She left her home and walked to where he wanted her to meet him. When she finally arrived she saw him leaning against a railing near a boat dock. She walked over and when he spotted her she smiled.

"Well hello Mr. Raymono, I believe you sent me an owl to meet you here" Blake said. She gave him a peck on the lips before looking him in the eyes. She was glad that he transferred to Durmstrang permintley, just to be with her. It made her feel special inside, something she never felt for a while.

She looked around the place and instantly smelled salt water, most likely because of where they were.

Ivano smiled when he heard his name called, he turned to look at her and kissed her back when she kissed him.

"It has been pretty lonely without seeing you everyday and thought maybe you would like to have lunch with me." Ivano smiled

He offered her his arm so they could walk along the waterfront. It was actually a beautiful day, but nothing compared to her beauty he thought as he smiled at her.

"I believe you have gotten more beautiful since I last saw you." He said as he placed a strand of her hair behind her ear.

Blake was flattered. "That's sweet, but you do know that we do go to the same school now. Although I'm not complaining" Blake smiled. "I would love to have lunch with you" Blake nodded.

She accepted his arm when he offered it to her. Ivano was such a gentlemen with her.

Blake smiled. "Well I believe the same thing has happened to you, were you always this muscular" Blake grinned when he put a piece of hair behind her ear. That was a habit of his and she had to admit she liked it.

Ivano smile as he lead her down the waterfront, "Of course I know that, but with it being summer holiday's its not everyday." Ivano sighed and couldn't believe that he felt this strongly about her.

He had walked them to this little cafe that he knew about and opened the door for her, "Well I have been moving a lot of heavy boxes, that could be it." Ivano didn't think he was any different than before.

They were seated in a little booth in the back and he let her slide in first and then he sat next to her holding her hand in his lap. Not wanting to loose contact with her, almost like if he was to let go she would disappear.

"So what have you been doing, while I have been slaving away?"

He led her down to the waterfront and she nodded. "Yes I know that it's not like school and we won't see each other everyday but it's all good" Blake nodded. Blake felt a connection to him and it seemed powerful.

When Ivano opened the door for her she smiled at him. She stepped into the place and turned around and looked at him. "Wow, you must have a lot of stuff" Blake said.

When they sat at the booth, Ivano let her go in first and he slid in next to her. Ivano held her hand and she smiled. "Are you always this sweet with girls" Blake asked.

Blake shrugged. "Well I've been doing nothing important. Told my dad about you and he was relieved that I was opening up to someone other then him. I went swimming a few times in my pool, and had family over for a family dinner which was quite boring" Blake rolled her eyes at that night. "What about you? What did you do other then move boxes?".

Ivano smiled at Blake and shook his head, "Yeah having to move completely into a new place, so basically this is my own home to live in permanently so I had to get a lot of stuff."

Ivano like the idea that he did have a little freedom, it was like he was already an adult. "I mean don't get me wrong I still have staff that will report to my father, but basically I am on my own."

Ivano smiled a little and then kissed Blake's hand, "Well I was a jerk to Tabi and I choose not to make the same mistakes twice, it its too much let me know."

A waiter came over to their table before he had a chance to respond to her question and he ordered himself a Coke and waited for her to decide what she wanted.

"Well basically just the moving is all I have been doing. The house I got was a mess and I have been helping clean it up. I may have been raised with servants, but that doesn't mean I can't clean too."

Blake nodded in understanding. "What? Your parents aren't going to be moving out here with you then?" Blake asked. "But it is expected when you move into a new place and have nothing so you need to buy new things" Blake understood.

Blake smiled. "Well that is still amazing. Even though if you do something the staff will report you but never the less. You're free from being under the influence" Blake replied.

Blake smiled when he kissed her hand. "Tell me how you were like before you met me" Blake asked.

When the waiter came by she ordered a sprite and turned back to Ivano.

"Well thats good to know that you clean. I thought I was the only one" Blake teased but she smiled.

((I am so bad at posting here...please forgive me))

Ivano was looking over the menu and continued to glance over at Blake. He could not get over how beautiful she was and how lucky he was to have such a perfect girl.

The waiter had arrived with their drinks and he had still not decided what to eat so he told him to come back, then looked over to Blake.

"To be honest I am glad that my parents aren't going to be there. My father drives me crazy and my mother smothers me, so I am good." Ivano said with a laugh. "But I am sure they will pop in all the time, they are connected to the floo."

Ivano reached over the table to hold Blake's hand as he answered the question she had asked earlier.

"To be honest I cannot explain it, there is something about you that makes me want to be different. You act like my equal not better than me, not knowing your family intimately helps a lot too." Ivano sighed

Looking over the menu again, "Any idea what you would like to have, I think I am having chicken and shrimp."

(OOC: Ivano it's okay I understand)

Blake knew that he was looking over at her and she couldn't help the warm fuzzy feeling in her stomach. He looked at her like she was the only girl he saw.

Blake had to laugh at what he explained his parents to be like. "Well your mother loves you and your father cares" Blake explained. "But it would be annoying for you if they do that in front of company" Blake joked.

He grabbed her hand and she sent him a small smile. She nodded. "I know what you mean. With me you can be in an equal part of this relationship, not someone who is just there for entertainment" she understood what he mean't.

"Wow, chicken and shrimp. Nice" Blake teased. She looked over the menu and saw something she would want. "Cheese burger" she decided.

Ivano could not help but laugh, "Cheeseburger, I believe that is perfect. I don't think in all the times I have eaten out with Tabi she had ever had a Cheeseburger."

Ivano hated going out anywhere with Tabi to eat she was always picky about what she ate. Which of course he blamed on how she was raised. If it wasn't perfect she would complain and send it back and she always ordered the most expensive thing on the menu. This was just one more thing about Blake that made her perfect.

"I am a little worried what my parents will do to you. My mother will probably smother you with a million questions." Ivano smiled

When the waiter came back he ordered what he wanted and out of habit was about to order for her but he stopped so she could order her own food. He was not sure what she thought about that, but it was the way he was raised.

Blake nodded. "Yeah, I know it sounds odd to be eating that but I don't like to be all classy even though sometimes my father hoists fancy parties" Blake explained to him. She had a feeling that his ex-girlfriend didn't like the grease in burgers or fat food.

"What would your father do?" Blake asked.

Blake had to smile when he was about to order her food for her. She looked at the waiter and told her order and when the waiter walked away Blake looked to Ivano. "I wouldn't have minded".

Ivano smiled at Blake, "Oh no I don't find it odd at all. I find it a very refreshing change."

When she asked about his father, what would his father do? He was a very refined man and expected things a certain way and he was a pureblood all the way.

"To be honest, I try not to think of what my father will say. He has all these strict guidelines about this and that. But then I am getting to the point I don't care any more." Ivano sighed

He noticed the waiter came back with their drinks and he took a sip of his drink.

"I will remember that for the next time, it is just the way I was raised. I try to back out a little. A lot of woman don't like it when you take control over things."

Blake smiled back at him. "Well thats good to know".

She nodded, from the tone of his voice she could tell that he was serious. He didn't care what happened anymore. "How about we get off the parent talk right now and talk about something else?" Blake suggested. She didn't want to pressure Ivano to talk about something that he obviously didn't want to.

Blake laughed a little bit. "Well sometimes it could be annoying but seriously, I wouldn't mind you doing it every once and a while as long as it isn't a full time thing".

Ivano smiled and was glad about the subject change because his parents drove him crazy sometimes and he was glad to be away from them even for a little bit.

"Well what else to chat about, I have been trying to decide what we could do after we eat. I heard that there is a interesting ballet going on, is that something that you would be interested in." Ivano was very eclectic when it came to things, he had varied interests.

When he heard her talk about ordering he nodded, "I will try to remember that, if I step on your toes just make sure you say something. Please." The last thing Ivano wanted to do was upset her, she was really good to him.

Blake could see the relief in his expression when Blake decided to change the subject. She was glad that she could make him like that.

She looked at him a little confused. "Ballet? As in the dancing in a tutu and tights?" Blake wanted to make sure she knew he was talking about what she was thinking. Her father and her had a code word that was 'ballet' and she wanted to be sure.

"Oh I won't hold back" she joked but there was some seriousness in that sentence though.

Ivano could not help but laugh at the look on her face when he mentioned the ballet, "I guess I didn't realize there was another kind. But yes?"

Ivano knew he was a little different, but since he had moved here he had found them a little interesting. Like telling a story, plus most of the time he thought woman enjoyed that sort of thing.

"Ok, now you think I am weird." Ivano said with a nervous laugh and took a drink.

Blake gave a small smiled and shook her head. "No it's not that, it's just my father and I have a code word and it's ballet and it was just a little confusing but yeah" Blake explained. She didn't want to give up to much information on what it stood for so she left it like that.

Blake could tell by his expression on his face that he thought she liked that sort of thing. She didn't want to be mean.. Well meaner then she normally was so she spoke up. "I'd love to go see a ballet show with you".

Blake shook her head. "More like gorgeous, funny, smart, a hell of a kiss, just tell me when you want me to stop" Blake gave him a flirty smile.
