Silvador walked through BonBon with his head held high. Istor, as usual, hung by his side on his belt. A warm breeze blew around him, blowing his long hair behind.

As he approached his destination, his eyes fell on the shop sign that read "La Musique et la Rose". When the panther reached the door, he stepped in, making the bell jingle above the door, and glanced around in search of his lunch date.

Aria hummed softly as she rearranged a few things on the wrack that held the dresses for women. Her tail swayed softly behind her as she did this. The store was quiet, so she figured to do something to keep herself busy for a little.

In hearing the bell above the door, she looked over and grinned as she saw who it was. Placing the dress she had in her hand back on the wrack, she smoothed out her own dress a little and made her way towards the front of her store to greet the panther.

"Bonjour Silvador," she said as she stopped before him.

Silvador bowed his head for a moment then looked up, letting his gaze take in her beauty for a couple of seconds before replying.

"Hello. Are you ready to go to lunch?"

Aria had a few loose strands of hair that rested against her cheeks, the rest had been pulled back into a slight bun. She nodded though to his question.

"Of course. I've been looking forward to it since this morning."

Silvador held out his arm and waited for Aria to take it. His eyes continued to linger on her face, she was a vision from a dream.

Aria smiled and placed a sign in the window, saying she was out to lunch, then wrapped her arm around his offered one. It was better to dine with company than to dine alone...better way to hold conversations with someone else than yourself.

Silvador supressed a shiver of pleasure as she touch his arm with hers. Leading her into the street, and looked her in the eyes and asked "Anywhere you'd like to go for lunch?"

Rank: Super Veteran Joined: 25 Nov 2009 Posts: 1640

Aria shut the door behind her as they left the store, a very soft shiver running down her own back. Head tilted slightly with question of where to go. "Anywhere would be fine to be honest. I'm not too picky."

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 20 Oct 2009 Posts: 12351

"Alright," Silvador said. Glancing down the street a moment, he pointed the other way then started walking, saying at the same time, "There's a nice little diner this way."

Rank: Super Veteran Joined: 25 Nov 2009 Posts: 1640

Aria allowed him to lead the way, though kept pace with him. "Sounds nice."

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 20 Oct 2009 Posts: 12351

Silvador walked casually. He kept his pace easy so he didn't rush the feline next to him.

The diner wasn't very busy at the moment, it usually picked up business in half an hour. Outside were small tables with two or three seats around them. Waitresses moved about the tables, serving customers and cleaning table tops.

"Inside or outside?" Silvador asked Aria as they approached the small diner.

Aria continued her pace, softly resting her head against his shoulder as they continued their stroll to the diner. As they approached, she noticed how quiet it was, but it didn't matter to her.

"Outside would be fine. It's a nice day to sit out and enjoy the fresh air."

Silvador pulled out a chair for Aria and waited for her to sit down. When she was seated, the panther went to the other side of the tbale and sat down.

"How is the shop workign out?" He asked as he waited for someoen to serve them.

Rank: Super Veteran Joined: 25 Nov 2009 Posts: 1640

Aria took a seat as the chair was pulled out for her, a nod of thanks given to him. "The shop is doing well. I've had a few customers already," she grinned and rest her hands in her lap.

A few minutes after they were seated, a waitress came over. The bunny placed a couple of menus before them and took out a pad and pencil. "Anything to drink while you look over the menus loves?"

"A lemonade for myself please." Aria said and glanced to Silv as the bunny wrote down her drink order.

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 20 Oct 2009 Posts: 12351

"Same for me," Silvador said as he picked up the menu and looked over it.

Rank: Super Veteran Joined: 25 Nov 2009 Posts: 1640

The bunny nodded and head off to get the drinks. Aria smiled softly and looked to the menu before her, wondering what to have. Every now and then, she glanced up from the menu to look at Silv, but did so in a casual way, so her head wouldn't move. Looking back to the menu, she came upon the salads and sandwiches.

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 20 Oct 2009 Posts: 12351

The panther found what he liked and set the menu down. He watched Aria as he waited for the waitress to return.

Aria looked over the menu for a few more seconds, debating on what to have as it all looked so good. The waitress came back and set the two glasses of lemonade before them and once more took out her pad and pencil.

"Ready to order?" she asked as she looked between the two.

"Oui," Aria said as she finally figured what she was going to have. "I'd like the chicken salad please with honey mustard dressing."

"Oooo...that's a good one," the bunny said as she wrote it down, then looked to Silv. "And for you sir?"

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 20 Oct 2009 Posts: 12351

Silvador looked to the waitress and gave his order, "I'd like the Fried Rice with Roast Chicken Pieces, please."

Rank: Super Veteran Joined: 25 Nov 2009 Posts: 1640

The bunny nodded as she wrote down his order, then tucked the pencil back into the front pocket of the small apron she wore. "I'll put these orders in and they should be out shortly." With that she turned and walked inside.

"What you ordered sounds good," Aria said as she shifted a little in her seat. "It's funny, this is the first i've eaten here since arriving in BonBon."

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 20 Oct 2009 Posts: 12351

"I come here a couple of times a week. You should try their Tomatoe Soup on Saturdays," Silvador said.

Rank: Super Veteran Joined: 25 Nov 2009 Posts: 1640

"I bet it's wonderful. I'll have to remember that and try it." Aria said wit ha purr.

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 20 Oct 2009 Posts: 12351

"How are you liking BonBon?" the panther inquired.

Rank: Super Veteran Joined: 25 Nov 2009 Posts: 1640

"I'm enjoying it. I can actually let my thoughts wander a little more freely around here," she said, giving a bit of a wink. "I'm glad I came."

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 20 Oct 2009 Posts: 12351

Silvador just smiled.

Rank: Super Veteran Joined: 25 Nov 2009 Posts: 1640

A soft purr came from Aria as she watched him. She let the silence fall over them for the time being, sometimes words weren't always needed. Soon the waitress returned with a tray in hand and placed the meals before them. "Enjoy your lunches," she said and gave a wink to both before moving off to another table. Aria placed her napkin in her lap and picked up the fork that was there. "Looks good."

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 20 Oct 2009 Posts: 12351

"It does," Silvador said, looking over the pile of food on his plate. He picked up his fork and began eating, taking his time to enjoy the strong flavours.

Rank: Super Veteran Joined: 25 Nov 2009 Posts: 1640

Aria took a forkful of the salad, being sure to get some of the chicken with the vegetables. As she wate it, she got the flavors that it held. "Mmmmm..." was all that came from her as she enjoyed it.

Royal Member of BonBon Joined: 20 Oct 2009 Posts: 12351

Silvador ate, but he soon forgot the taste of his food. He watched Aria and his mind was captivated by her beauty. Soon, she seemed the only thing in existence.

Aria continued to eat her own meal, now and then taking a sip of her lemonade. She could feel Silv's gaze on her and it brought a smile to her lips. Her tail flicked softly beside her, though she was thankful of the long table cloth on the table. Her right foot shifted slowly till it was near his. Gently, she ran her foot up along his leg.
