The smell really *was* delicious. Carefully - Moving with an almost dainty grace! - Arisa sipped at her soup...Her eyes widening, ever-so-slightly. "Good," she murmured - the taste lingering on the palate, strong but not cloying! Her stomach growled, reminding her that she hadn't eaten much the whole day...Which was why she swallowed, hard, at the sight of the steak!<br/><br/>She was so, so tempted to just dig in...But no, she<em>made</em>herself savor the meal, the delicious - tangy, perfectly seared - flavor of the meat, the crisp vegetables, the rich meaty taste of the mushrooms...She'd focus on the taste, too: Even when her appetite was sated, it was hard not to want more!<br/><br/>With a spread like that before her, any comments the redhead would've made would have been obvious at best - But it was a fine meal. She couldn't remember tasting better. Somehow, with all the time she spent with the other girls, patrolling the city, she hadn't had the chance to just let her hair down...And<em>enjoy</em>herself.<br/><br/>It'd be later - Much later - when all the plates had been cleared away, when Arisa was delicately dabbing at her mouth with a clean white napkin, that she'd *really* hear his next question!<br/><br/><em>S, something to show me...?</em>Despite herself, she blushed - Her pulse coming faster, faster, as she fidgeted with the tablecloth...Smoothening down her skirt, remembering what Melissa had been teasing her about! "I - I'd love to," she offered, her lips curving in a sweet smile...Her hands folded, oh-so-demurely, on her lap!<br/><br/>After a meal like that - Given the way the night had gone so far - how could she<em>possibly</em>refuse?
