Could Be Good Love Started by: Luna-Lovegood on Jan 23, '17 16:05

January 23rd, 1928

It was a cool, rainy day in Downtown, LA. Luna was seated on the floor of her small one bedroom apartment. She was looking through her belongings when she found a journal that clearly belonged to her mother. Flipping slowly through the pages, she got to an entry from just a few hours before she passed away. It said:

"Dear Journal,

A young man tried to sweep me off my feet this morning. You know.. I think it might have worked. He is quite a bit younger than me but.. I'm considering calling him.. I really wish you could calm my nerves though, journal, but alas.. You're not real. If only the thing I poured my heart into daily could respond to me.. How freaky would that be though?

Anyways, that's it for now.. If I call him, I will write about it tomorrow. Promise!

Until then,

K."

Luna imagined the smile that would have been plastered on her mother's face as she wrote about this young man. She wondered who it could be when a small card fell out. In fancy cursive writing were the words "call me sometime" with a number at the end, signed @Reverse_Slash.

She smiled a bit as she read the card a few more times and decided she was going to call him. She got up off the floor and walked over to the phone, quickly dialing the number that was written on the card.

At the sound of a man's voice at the other end of the phone, Luna quickly hung up. Her nerves had gotten the best of her, and she calmed herself for a few minutes before dialing again. When he picked up a second time, she choked out, "Hello. Is this Reverse_Flash?"

She breathed a sigh of relief when he said yes and she said, "Well.. This is Luna-Lovegood. I do believe you knew my mother. This is very random, I know, but I was wondering if maybe you would like to go out for some drinks sometime? Maybe dinner?"

Reverse_Flash was sitting in his office in the back of his pizzeria. It had been a slow day so he left it up to his waiters/waitresses to run the front. Thinking about a lady he had met a while back, but sadly never heard from.  He looked down at the papers making sure his inventory matched his order.  He laughed to himself seeing how his staff did a good job keeping up on the inventory.

Suddenly the phone on his desk rang and he picked it up. “Hello?..” The line went dead. ‘Strange.’ The thought to himself as he was shocked at the fact someone hung up on him.

Then the phone rang yet again. “Hello..” The woman on the phone spoke this time. Listening to her closely he smiled. “Yes I think I may know who you’re talking about. I would love too! Are you free this evening? I don’t have much going on.

Luna listened to him talk and smiled as she twirled the cord in her fingers, eyeing her wand that was on the table just a few inches away from the phone. She had just realized she never told him who her mother was, but he said he knew so she shrugged that off. Then he suggested that they could meet up that evening and she said, "This evening actually would work out perfectly. I don't have anything going on either!"

She paused for a moment, thinking as she dropped the cord and picked up her wand, holding it firmly in her hands. When she was nervous, she always had to be doing something with her hands. It calmed her.

She said, "Wait.. Where do you live? I kind of forgot to ask. I live in Los Angeles but I am currently in Philly on some.. Business. I can take a short flight to wherever you might be right now."

Laughing a little to her excitement as he grabbed his calendar and realized he should be in Philly today! His hand slapped his forehead and smiling while she finished her quick questioning.



“Well good as it actually I should be in Philly this afternoon. As I have a quick meeting out there and then I am free after that. I actually live in Chicago down on the South Side. Since I am gonna be out that way I shall treat you to dinner. I actually will be leaving here shortly to head out to O’Hare to catch my flight.”



Again looking at his calendar and the dates where blotted out for the week that he was supposed to be there. Remembering he had to meet a friend to make a quick deal.

She nodded to herself as he spoke over the phone about how he was actually supposed to be in Philly.

She said, "Oh well that makes things quite a bit easier, huh? I will just stick around here in Philly. Not like I was leaving soon. I have awhile to wait before my departing flight so that's great. Dinner sounds awesome. Can't wait!"

She paused briefly before saying, "Hope your flight goes well and I shall see you soon then!! Goodbye 'til later. Just get a hold of me from the airport at this number when you land and I will give you my address!"

She relayed her phone number to him so he could write it down, and then hung up when he said bye.

After writing down her phone number he smiled. “Good bye I will see you soon.” The line went dead and he had to laugh. ‘Taking a plane? I am faster than that.’ His bodyguard approached him and spoke. “Sir your car is ready.” RF looked at him with a grin, “Really? You know I can make it there quick on my own.” The bodyguard laughed and left the room. He ran back to his house packing a bag.

Then turning towards the door and running as fast as he could. The yellow and red streaks of lightening following behind. Before he knew it he was at the Philly airport. He looked at his watch in his bag and rolled his eyes. ‘Damn that was too fast. ‘ He laughed to himself. Sitting there thinking to himself he decided to wait the 2 hours or so that a flight would have taken.

 

2 hours later..

 

He finally reaches up to the pay phone throwing some nickels and dimes in it to ring Luna. Smiling really big as he waited with anticipation for her to answer.

She was dancing around her house, cleaning here and there, when her phone rang. A smile spread across her face as she walked over, picking it up and saying in her sweet tone, "Hello, Luna speaking."

It was Reverse_Flash at the other end of the phone and she exclaimed, "Wow! The plane must have went a bit faster today! It normally takes me several hours to get to Philly when I'm in Chicago! Must be your lucky day or something."

She quickly gave him her address and said, "I can be ready in about twenty minutes! See you then."

When they got off the phone, she finished cleaning her apartment and then made sure she didn't look terrible by touching up her lipstick and fluffing her curly, blonde hair a bit, and then she made sure she had her wand in her small wand carrier on her hip. She took it literally everywhere with her.

She decided she was as ready as she could get and sat on the couch to wait for the knock at her door.

As they hung up the phone again he looked down at his watch.. ‘Twenty minutes huh…’ He thought to himself. He made his way over to a map making sure to map his route to her house. Deciding quickly he needed some flowers and chocolate he ran around picking them up. Looking at his watch again.. ‘Damn thirty seconds… Ugh.’ Again thinking to himself, he figured it be best not to startle the girl with his abilities just yet. So he hailed down a cab.



Sitting the back of the cab the driver turned and looked at him. “Where too kid?...Ah whats with the funny suit?” RF looked down and realized he was still in his RF suit. Handing the man the address on the piece of paper, he turned around and took off. He thought fast and turned the backseat into a lightening show as he changed out of his suit into something more normal like an actual suit! Trying to tie the tie he got annoyed ‘Screw it no tie.’ Leaving the button unbuttoned up top.



20 minutes later..



He had finally arrived at the house. Tipping the cab driver as he got, out with his briefcase in hand and flowers in the other.  Moving his hair around trying to get it just right, he shrugged and walked up to the door smiling. Reaching forward with the flowers in hand he knocked hard on the door.

Luna perked up at the sound of a car engine out front of her apartment. She watched out her window as Reverse_Flash got out of the car, laughing when he threw cash at the driver. She saw him flip his hair around trying to make it look appropriate and she giggled, thinking, Guess it's not just women that try to get everything just right!

She laughed again when she heard him knock on the front door of her apartment building, and she left her apartment, locking the door behind her. She quickly scaled down the stairs and she pushed open the door, saying, "Heyyy! Glad you made it here. You clean up very well! But.. This is an apartment. You didn't have to knock! But still. I was glad to get to watch you be a little nervous beforehand. My window is right up there. I got to watch the show of you fixing your hair and the deep breath you took before walking up to the door.."

Smiling sweetly, she accepted the flowers he gave her and said "So.. Where shall we eat tonight? Do you want to walk there, since you just sent your driver away?"

Laughing a little bit as he was still little nervous, “Well you see. I am nervous and I don’t know why I knocked at the apartment door.” His free hand was feeling little sweaty so he wiped it on his pant leg. “Yes I have never just met someone for dinner on a whim like this. So it’s a little nerve racking.” He started to blush a little.

Looking back up at her he smiled, “You are more beautiful than I had pictured when we spoke on the phone… But for dinner there is a little dinner actually down the street here. Just a couple blocks, I figured it was a nice night and we could enjoy the weather a little.” Extending his arm for her to escort her to the diner.

Luna giggled at his nervousness as he wiped his palm on his pants. She was feeling the nerves herself but she was trying her hardest not to show it. She looped her arm through his and said, "A diner sounds nice. It's such a nice evening for sure. Not too cold to where I need a coat, not too hot to where I would be sweating my butt off! What kind of food does this place serve? I hate to say it but I'm fairly picky."

She looked over at him as they walked and said, "And also.. You look rather nice as well! I was picturing different but I'm glad you look the way you do honestly. I had matched a face to the voice but.. Your face is much better."
