One of the many things Harry has learned of in Darrow that he finds he enjoys very much is the concept of a date night. It isn't that he needs an excuse to take Zoe out, but there's something terribly charming about making a particular show of it all, planning the evening, arriving to pick her up and arranging for a movie to be followed by a late night stop at a dessert bar.
And movies are still fascinating for Harry, so he sits in the film, as utterly transfixed as he had been the first few times, occasionally reaching over to take Zoe's hand at particularly tense parts. When they leave, he finds he can't stop talking about it, the plot and the performances and even the beauty of each individual shot. They talk almost all the way to the dessert bar and then he smiles as he leads her inside.
"I hope this is something you'll be interested in," he says as he opens the door and then finds them a table. "People often suggest going out for drinks, but I thought... well, this seemed like a fine idea."
There are other ideas he has, too. While he is in no rush and has no interest in pushing Zoe somewhere she may not yet be willing to go, Harry thinks he might be ready for things he's kept rather off the table. They've kissed plenty and he's grown more confident in touching her, too, but he has more on his mind now and he's rather excited about it.
"And then... maybe you would like to come back to my place," he suggests with a gentle smile.
