Felix's POV : 

"Book are better than movies! You'll never convince me otherwise." I laugh giving Isaac a playful glare before scooping more alfredo into my mouth.

"Books are too time consuming. I don't really have a lot of free time to sit down and bury my head in a six-hundred page novel. Watching a hour and a half long movie is much more convenient." He countered making me shake my head.

"Books are so much better though! You get so much more out of them. I can see your point of view with not having the time but I still think books are better. What's your favorite movie?" I ask curiously.

"You know, I'm not really sure. I haven't had time to sit down and enjoy a movie for a while. Between all of my responsibilities I just don't have the time to take much time for my self." He admits and shakes his head, "But that's going to have to change now."

"Oh, why's that? I'm sure you're a very busy man." I comment, wondering what could have changed his thinking.

He smiled gently at me and replied, "I'd like to have more time to spend with you, Felix. I can't really get to know you if I'm busy running around like a chicken with it's head cut off."

"With me?" I asked, feeling unsure of my self, "You want to spend more time with me?"

"Of course I do. I don't plan on this being our first and only date." Isaac smiled and winked at me causing my face to flush.

It just seemed so difficult to grasp that he could have any feelings for me. I found my self constantly comparing my self to him, wondering how someone that looks like that could ever want someone that looks like me. Someone scarred and damaged beyond repair. 

I felt my self frown and I tried to mentally shake those thoughts away. Isaac had seen me at my worst and still pursued me, even knowing how messed up I am.  He's done nothing but show me he cares so there's no way I'm letting my insecurities ruin this.

"If you keep frowning like that I'm going to assume you're not having a good time." Isaac laughs, trying to joke but I can hear the seriousness in his tone.

"No, I'd like that, if we had more dates I mean. This has been very nice and I like spending time with you." I admit, giving him a small smile.

"I'm glad. I'm enjoying my time with you too." He says before finishing up his last bite of food.

He takes both of our plates and stets them in the cart before pulling out another dish. I have no idea how he expects me to eat more but then he uncovers the dish and I feel my self practically drool. On the platter is the most delicious looking chocolate cake I've ever seen. My already full stomach protests but I can help it.

"That looks great!" I sigh, rubbing my tummy.

"If you're full we can always save this for later." He suggests but I shake my head.

"No that looks too good to pass up. Maybe I'll just have a few bites though, I don't want to push it too much." I answer and reach for the plate.

He hands over a slice of cake and I set it down in front of my self before digging in with an appreciative groan. I have to tap out half way through though because my stomach heaves and I start to feel a little sick.

"I'm done! I can't possibly eat another bite." I moan, leaning back in my chair.

"I told you so." Isaac smirks at me and I stick my tongue out at him.

"Hush you! It looked so good." I huff and rub my belly.

"So for future reference chocolate cake is a yes?" Isaac asks as he clears the table of our plates.
