"Welcome, would you like anything to drink?" The woman greets us with a customary smile, her eyes go from me to him. "Yes, a glass of wine for me and an orange juice for her." He smiles to me, instead of her, getting me to turn red. "Okay, anything for starters?" She keeps tapping her pen on the notepad, eyeing the floor.

"What do you want?" He rests back, gazing at me and i feel lost, "i- i'll take whatever you will." He smiles, "alright then, get two plates of sundae, please. A butterscotch for me and a chocolate with vanilla for the large o-."

I cut him, "a medium one." He just gives a glance to me but continues, "for the large one." He ignores my words like dirt and i frown, crossing my arms.

He sits down more lousily, but i understand why he did this so i keep my legs back, to not let him touch our knees. "Chocolates are good for lifting mood." He grins, once i see him in the eyes. "But it wouldn't have been ruined if you did what i told you to." I murmur while playing with my purse, not confident enough to say it loudly.

"What did you blah blah?" He pokes my leg with his shoe, forcing me eyes to widen because of that touch. I shoot my eyes to him and find him smiling at me. "I said that..." I lose confidence, his foot going up and brushing past my calf makes my spine wobbly.

I blink away once he takes back his foot, "you were saying something." He straightens up after messing my mind, while he rubs the bridge of his nose.

I swallow, shaking slightly but not because of him, or maybe it was him. "I did not say anything." He finally succeeds in shutting my mouth, his dominating presence over me laughs at my stupid embarrassment. 

"You're adorable, honey." He licks his lips but glances away from me, flustering me with his praises and teases too often now that i've figured out everything he was waiting to do.

"Here's your dessert, sir." She places the tempting glass of sundae in front of him as he peeks at it and then at her hands, "where's hers?" He does not give attention to the poor sweet treat but just asks for mine when i am full by just looking at his . "I'm coming with it quickly." She goes hurriedly inside the chef's kitchen while we exchange glances.

I know what just happened, but it's not anything new. "People can be so disgusting." He exhales some tensed breath, twisting the mini spoon inside the scoop of ice cream, feeling bitter as he observes everything.

I also swallow the slight disgust in my throat but try to ignore how she just came quick to serve him the desert while totally ignoring my presence.

"Here's yours." She keeps the huge delicious thing in front of me and rushes inside again. "This...it's too much, am i supposed to eat it all?" I suppress my satisfied grin but dig in it to have a small spoon of the hot brownie covered in chocolate syrup. "Yes, you are." He brings some joy in me but on the other hand, i'm guilty. I take a bite of the vanilla cream and raise my head, which i regret not so later after that.

"Here..." He hands me the tissue and i swallow the sweet but attempt to wipe the melted liquid off my collarbone in a discreet manner, when i know that he's seen it already. I pray that i don't blush like an imbecile now.

My whole life is against me today. "Be careful, baby." I don't look at him as he said that. "Here's your bill." The sound of the same lady enters my ears and i finally look up, holding the spoon to gulp it. He hands her the money and i see his glass already empty. Oh, it was small. That's why.

Once i think to look away, he sees me and smiles. I glance away, like a dumb girl. I saw nothing. "Do you want anything else?" The knuckle cracking noise attracts my eyes to him, "no. I'm good." I hurry to empty my part, not able to sit calmly when his eyes are stuck to me like glue. "Take it slow, we're not rushing tonight." His low voice fastens my blood rush, forcing me to look towards him.
