Time seemed to fly by pleasantly as the two chatted and cuddled together to kill time before making their way towards the cafe. Though when they entered together, one of the maids gave Kaito a dirty look, the magician just grinned "Yesterday was just a friend" It wasn't any of her business, but he'd rather enjoy his time here without getting dirty looks. The maid blushed a bit before leading them towards their table.

"I honestly thought that you could have been joking about it being a maid cafe" Saguru breathed once the two of them were seated. He glanced around, taking in the homey decor, deeming it to be quite comfortable.

Kaito smiled, indigos gleaming "I think the only difference between this place and a normal restaurant is the uniform" There was unfortunately none of the acting that's occasionally seen in some anime. He couldn't help the small laugh that escaped him at a new thought "Can you imagine Shinichi's face if they greeted him as 'Master'?"

Saguru snorted "We probably wouldn't be eating here since he would have found a different place to hide" He could just imagine the sleuth quickly backing away from the maids, the poor guy still wasn't that good with social situations when alone.

The magician picked up the menu, tempted to get the same thing as last time. He peered over it towards Saguru "I'm going to have to eat healthy food first won't I?" Chocolate was healthy, it had good protein and was made from milk. Sadly nobody he knew ever agreed with him on that topic.

"Yes" The blond smirked "You can fill up on junk food later, but you must eat healthy food first" He just knew that Kaito would be living off of unhealthy takeout once he left on his mission, it tended to happen whenever the other was around Shinichi for too long. The sleuth couldn't cook so he'd coerce Kaito to order takeout, then Kaito would end up getting lazy and would keep ordering food instead of cooking. It wasn't a guess, it was guaranteed.

Kaito gave a small pout, shoulders slumping dramatically "Fine, then I'm going to have the rice omelette..." He paused "And strawberry milk" Just to be defiant.

Saguru shook his head in exasperation as he called over a waitress to order their meals, except he replaced the strawberry milk with chocolate milk. Once the waitress left he gave his date a deadpan stare "I swear" He sighed "I'm in love with a child"

The magician just smiled innocently "I didn't do anything, strawberry milk is awesome too you know"

"I know" Gold stared into indigo "But I also know you and your addiction to chocolate" He himself was actually quite fond of strawberry milk, but usually preferred tea if it was available.

Kaito shrugged "It's not my fault that chocolate is amazing"

"It's probably what kept you functional when we were in high school" Wasn't chocolate high in caffeine?... With how much the other usually ate... Oh, so maybe Kaito hadn't been joking about withdrawal when he and Aoko had banned him from chocolate that one time... Why did he only just realize this now? Saguru grimaced at his thoughts "I think that you're actually addicted to the caffeine in chocolate"

"... I'm not cutting down on the chocolate" Indigos gleamed "If Shinichi is allowed to consume unhealthy amounts of coffee, then you can't take away my chocolate" He rested his chin on his palm "Besides chocolate is healthier than coffee, more nutrients" Their conversation was cut off by the arrival of their food, Kaito eyed Saguru's food curiously. The blond had ordered a fancy looking sandwich, the bread looked toasted and he could smell garlic "Is that made with garlic bread?" He inquired incredulously, wasn't Saguru just telling him to eat healthy?

"Indeed" The blond lifted the top to reveal that cheese had been melted onto the garlic bread "It's been a while since I've had it" His sandwich fillings consisted of unbreaded chicken and some lettuce.

Kaito's mouth was watering just looking at the sandwich, his own meal looked boring compared to Saguru's "I'll make my own version of that when I return from my trip" There was no way he was going to mention a mission inside of a cafe.

Gold softened "Yes, when you return" Because there was no other option other than returning. They both began to eat their respective meals, with Kaito offering Saguru a bit of his omelette in return for a bite of the garlic bread. Kaito of course finished first, so he went ahead and ordered himself a slice of chocolate and strawberry cheesecake so that he wasn't staring at Saguru to finish.

By the time Saguru finished his own meal, Kaito had finished his cheesecakes "... I suppose baked treats are more healthy than processed ones..." They called over a waitress to order another round of desserts. He may as well allow Kaito to fill up on the more nutrient filled treats rather than whatever they would smuggle into the theatre.

"Baked goods are so good" Kaito gushed "Why don't I bake more? I should really bake more" Then he'd have a limitless supply of baked goods.

"You don't have time to bake" Saguru replied as they waited for their dessert "We're lucky that we have time to actually cook good meals for ourselves" Kaito was known enough to be able to spend most of his time at the hospital if he really wanted to, thankfully the other preferred to spend time with others outside the hospital unlike some renowned doctors he's heard horrible family life stories about.

"... Maybe I'll have takeout once a week to give me time for baking" Kaito breathed moments before their dessert arrived. Kaito had gotten the white chocolate pudding cake, it was a fudge cake filled with vanilla pudding and melted white chocolate. The firmness of the fudge was what allowed the liquid to not make a mess.

"Very well" It could be worse he supposed, he glanced down at his own chocolate strawberry cake "So long as you clean up after yourself it should be fine" Kaito was an adult, he wouldn't control him.

Me: This was interesting to write~ It's also difficult to think up food ideas... *Eats the same foods all the time and rarely branches out*

Hope you enjoyed~
