Or not. Apparently, she was ruining it.
"I'm not meaning to ruin it." How was she ruining it? By.. not being overly enthusiastic like other girls would have been if he'd done it? Because she was talking about bugs? "I love it, you know. What you did. A lot." In case that wasn't clear. Was she making it evident? "I do. Just you do all these extra nice things for me and you don't have to. I already get a you, see? You're enough." It was like he thought he had to do more to make Alice happy when she was already happy.
"Not that it's a bad thing, 'cause it's an excellent thing, but you should give me time to process it all. And not sulk. You look nicer when you're not sulking." But also when he was.
"Yeah." ... of course. Of course he did. Like... it was night time. It was a date. Of course food was part of it.
He paused a little bit in his sulking when she actually said good stuff. So she
did like it? Well.... that helped a bit. Her saying that. A bit.
"I like doing stuff for you. I always want to do stuff for you. Even if you don't need me to, I like to on account of you're worth lots of nice things." Still a bit sulky k? K.
But he denied it when she actually said it.
"...........I'm not."
