"Even though I pretty much had to FORCE you to use your favor on me." She teased, looking down at her menu again with a smirk.

Maggie giggled lightly at his next words and rolled her eyes at him. "I just invited you to LA. That's the point where you say 'gosh, Maggie thanks, I'd love to, you're the best'." She gave his leg a playful nudge with her shoe under the table. Seriously though. It would be cool no? She'd had people over before, maybe they could all visit her at the same time even. Hmm.

Carrot cake? Maggie tried to find it on the menu. Seriously, she didn't know what half of these things were. "Okay I'll take that then. And green tea." He would order for her right?


He had it won, until you brought that up, and really, he had little way of explaining it away. SHE had persuaded him to use it on her. But then, what did that mean exactly? Shaking his head lightly gave her a amused look. "Well just because I didn't want to use my favour didn't mean I didn't want you." Never mind that cooties were still a moderate influence on his pre-Maggie kissing experience, of which was nil. But he didn't much mind being the one to be persuaded, she was welcome to continue persuading him too.

...

Had he said the wrong thing?

It wasn't bad, despite the eye-rolling, which was USUALLY bad, but then, he couldn't help but grin. "Gosh Maggie, thanks, I'd love to, you're the best," he parroted for her benefit. "But really, I would love to. And if you want to..." was now the time? "... you could visit me in France." There was no doubt in his mind that her company would be appreciated, and he was sure that she and Avery would get along, Ashely too he imagined. But then, the whole prospect of the 'meet the parents' thing was... terrifying. He was scared for Maggie already.

Laying his 'fears' to rest so that he might be able to focus on food things, he nodded as Maggie conveyed her wishes. Zeke nodded before repeating her order - a habit he'd developed after years of ordering experience, "Carrot cake and green tea, coming right up." He pushed himself away from the table to approach the counter where he relayed their order of carrot cake, green tea, tea creams and a chelsea bun. After completing the transaction, Zeke returned to their table, shoving his coin pouch back into his pocket.
