[windeity]

...oh? [Yeah well John stopped eating because now he's openly staring at Dave.]

[parodeity]

[ haha what if he focuses on eating instead ]

[windeity]

[Haha nooo?] Daaaave...

[parodeity]

After we're done eating!

[windeity]

[AN EXASPERATED SIGH.] You promise?

[parodeity]

I swear, in the car.

[windeity]

Alright, alright. [He seems pleased though and continues with his noodles.] Do you think they'd kill me if I asked them to box this to go?

[...still teasing.]

[parodeity]

Probably not since we're paying for it?

[windeity]

As much as I want to know what you're thinking, I can wait. [A glance down.] Do you want the last piece of steak?

[parodeity]

I'll take it since you'll be happy. [ huzzah ]

[windeity]

How about you don't call me out like that? [But yeah he's pretty pleased and finishes off the veggies instead.]

[parodeity]

It's no fun dating you if I can't give you a hard time?

[windeity]

You always gave me a hard time when we were still just friends, dummy. I'm not sure this is just a dating perk.

[parodeity]

You gonna try to take it from me?

[windeity]

Not on our anniversary. That would be very rude.

[parodeity]

So you're saving it for later?

[windeity]

Doubtful. I think I might like spoiling you a little too much.

[parodeity]

Is that you way of saying you're going to fight me for the bill?

[windeity]

Oh, I'm absolutely going to fight you for the bill, yes. [A gentle lift of his eyebrows.] Let me treat you, okay? You're making dinner for me on Saturday anyway.

[parodeity]

If we go anywhere else after this I'm paying.

[windeity]

What if the place I'm taking you to is free of charge?

[parodeity]

Then the next place we go that costs money. Deal?

[windeity]

Deal. [He pushes half of the remaining noodles to Dave.] Here, help me finish these until then. Do you have somewhere else in mind, or do you trust me for post-dinner adventures?

[parodeity]

We'll talk in the car? [ he spears a vegetable though ]

[windeity]

You're the worst. The worst! You are a terrible person and it is ridiculous. [But noodles occupy his mouth instead.]
