She could have just kept running her hand along his face or his hair if that was what Alisa wanted. It felt pleasant to be touched like that by the lovely heiress even when in Public like this.

"I couldn't agree more. You are clearly the highlight of this evening right now~" Getting to spend some time together with Alis ain a locale like this was making Rean's heart race.

Alisa's smile warmed tenfold at that, as she glanced back at him, "I'm glad you feel that way." It definitely won't be the same without him going forward. "The only way it could be even more perfect, is if we were dancing together." She smiled, resting her chin on her hand a little dreamily.

" A pity there is no Dance floor down here then. Though that doesn't mean we can't have our own little performance back at the penthouse. Just put on some music and let it sweep us both away~" He was offering her that option. All she had to do was seize it. Would she thoug? Rean certainly had no problem with being asked to dance with Alisa. It had been far too long since their dance around the bonfire. A simpler time that felt a lifetime away now.

She's a little surprised by Rean's suggestion - not that he made it, but that she didn't think about it herself. Although wouldn't getting swept away in the music and each other get them in trouble the last time? Still she'd be lying if she said she didn't want to dance with him again - the risk of getting swept up in each other was more than worth it. "... yeah, we could do that." She agreed with a soft smile, her thumb gently running over his hand.

It felt like the natural thing to suggest. At least that was how Rean felt on the matter and seeing Alisa accept that idea put an even warmer smile on his lips as the two quickly fell into that little world they tended to make for each other whenever together.

"Then that's another thing to look forward to~" And a perfect high point for their date before winding down for the night.

He'd be right, it was perfectly natural to suggest they dance back at the penthouse apartment. She smiled faintly, "There's so many things we have to look forward to," and one thing NOT to look forward to. But before she could fall onto that topic pitfall, she quicly changed the subject, "Oh - should we order a dessert? I mean, it's still some time yet since our dinner hasn't even been delivered yet, but still.."

Best not to linger on that really. They would have to face it whether they thought of it or not so why taint their already insanely limited time together with issues they had absolutely no control over.

"Oh you're right. I'll let you pick then~ Curious what your favorite is after all~"

Alisa laughed, "I wouldn't say I had a favorite, actually~! I already have a bit of a sweet tooth, so I'm pretty sure I would like everything. The cheesecake is really good, but it's really heavy too, I can't manage to eat more than one slice." And then she feels guilty for eating it.

"Oh really? Is that a confession of intent then or should we go for something a little lighter~?" Rean asked with a cheeky smirk after learning of this particulay weakness of hers that she had let slip so easily.

Alisa glanced at Rean in surprise, then blushes, "N-no! I was just..it was just a for instance!" Darn him and his cheekiness! "I think getting something lighter would be a better idea anyway.. especially if we're going to dance later." If she was full of cheesecake she wouldn't want to move at all.

Hmhm then he should get her cheesecake when he wants to just spend hte rest of the day cuddling it away next to Alisa. But if it was omething lghter then the menu would serve that purpose yet again.

"Hmmm then how about icecream~"

Oh goodness. That sounded like a delightful day she would not in the least be sorry for. "Oh! Ice cream sounds wonderful~!" Alisa agreed with a bright smile, completely oblivious to the soft 'ahem's from the waiter, who's probably been standing there for at least half a minute with their meals. At least he looked more amused than annoyed for having to wait.

Then he would have to make it happen next time he visited or had her over for a visit. For now though Rean couldn't help but notice the waiter finally and pulled back with a start.

"Oh! The food is here." Rean exclaimed with a bashful cough in his fist as he allowed Alisa to pull away since they would have to use both hands to eat after all.

She jumped a little when Rean caught sight of the waiter, and she gave the poor man an embarrassed smile. Reluctantly pulling away from Rean and clearing her throat. "Sorry about that...! Oh it looks great!" She smiled as the man placed the beef rice in front of Rean, and the salad in front of Alisa.

"It's no trouble," the waiter grinned, "You two were .. rather distracted after all." He noted, a little teasingly as Alisa's face turned a little pink.

Rean's blush was a little lighter but still noticeable since yeah getting called out like that was just a teensy bit embarassing.

"The food looks amazing even before the first bite~" Rean complimented the dishes set down on the table with a polite smile

The waiter grinned, "Glad you think so. If you need anything else, just whistle." Not literally though - he's not going to be far regardless.

Alisa smiled, "Well, let's dig in!" She picked up her fork, her attention turning to the dish before her, and taking her first bite. "Mmh!~ It's delicious. Here, Rean." She started to spear some salad on her fork to offer to him - realized that feeding him in her home was VERY different from feeding him in public and sort of -halted-.

"Thank you." He smiled before turning to his own delicious dish taking a quick bite and humming in delight before Alisa decided to try feeding him from her own salad. Rean hesitated only for a second though before leaning over to pluck the food from her fork.

Alisa blushed a little, quickly turning back to her plate, "S-so what do you think?" Ahem, no one else noticed that right? Although uh. It seems like the staff were watching the couple out of the corner of their eyes, hiding their smiles.

The bartender waved over the waiter for a second, the two talking quickly and quietly. Perhaps plotting to sneak photos to Sharon.

They were totally being watched but Rean didn't give them any mind. Far more important to enjoy his perfect meal together with Alisa. He chewed a bit before swallowing with a big satisfied smile.

"You were right! The salad really is amazing! Here why don't you try some of mine then~?" Yep he's going to do the same thing Alisa did for him. Hope everyone's dentist is free of appointments.

This was definitely on par with tooth rotting cuteness. In fact one of the patrons of the bar quietly excused himself because he couldn't take the cute scene any longer.

Alisa looked surprised when Rean meant to do the same for her, but she took him up on the offer, blushing lightly as she taste-tested some of the beef, "..Mmmm! It really is good!" Careful there Alisa, you almost spoke with your mouth full! She licked a bit of rice off of her lips before giggling a little, "I've never had that dish before."

Too bad the two of them seemed to already be trapped in their own little world all over again as Rean smiled softly seeing Alisa's adorably cute reaction.

"Isn't it? Master Ka Fai introduced me to this dish actually. Though the one he had me taste had a slightly stronger flavor to it. He never did tell me what the secret ingredient was." Probably something alcoholic.

Alisa's smile softened, "You've talked about your Master a lot in the time I've known you. I hope I can meet him one day. I'd love to meet someone who influenced you so much."

Master Ka Fai would probably back the relationship between the two of them too. In fact most of their friends would. Even Elise would - once she got over her jealousy.

"ahahaha well I hope I'll get the chance to introduce you to him. Though he does a lot of traveling and most of it without any kind of warning." A wandering sword hermit just as shis reputation says.

Oh he definitely would. Odds were he'd be even worse than Gwyn when it came to the commentary and support.

"Do you think you'd ever want to do that?" Alisa asked curiously, taking another bite of her salad, before offering him another bite as well. One for her, one for him! She..maybe have totally forgotten where she was, but the staff were getting plenty of photo opportunities here.

"Hm? Do you mean wander the land like him?" That was a sudden question to ask. But he didn't even have to think on that since Rean already had his answer.

"No I don't think that would suit my style. Especially not now." After all he wanted to spend so much more time with Alisa if he could.
