The waiter held back a chuckle, noticing the bright colored male blush brightly and hide behind his menu, "Well, if you like, I can start you two off with some drinks!" he offered.
Keme gulped as he willed his blush to go away and he looked up at the waiter, "I'll have some ice tea thank you."

"That sounds great." Looking a little sheepish for having made Keme blush without meaning to while at the same time thinking he was perfectly adorable for doing so, Relm somehow managed a carefree smile for their server. "I think I'd just like water tonight. With lemon, please. Thanks."
Relm waited for the waiter to go before sliding her hand across the table to touch Keme's with a gentle squeeze. "You all right, Hummer?"

Keme lowered his menu and squeezed Relm's hand gently, smiling, "Yea, I'm fine! Just don't want this date to go badly for you!" he confessed, blushing lightly.

The laugh she gave was one that spoke of released tension. "Keme... I'm with you! That alone makes it a wonderful time!"
Then she ducked her head shyly, showing her hand. "I want it to be good for you too..."

Keme smiled fondly at Relm, wagging his tail behind him, but whatever comment he was about to make was put off for now when the waiter returned with their drinks.
"Here you both go, an ice tea for the gentleman and a water with lemon for the pretty lady!" he commented, setting their drinks in front of them. He then took out his pad and a pen, "Can I start you two off with a salad or appeitizers tonight?"

The smile she gave Keme turned to open-mouthed wonder as their drinks arrived and Relm realized she had not even looked at the appetizers, pulling up her menu to quickly do so. "Ummm... no salad for me..." She looked at Keme. "Were you wanting an appetizer? I don't mind either way."

Keme shook his head, not in the mood for a salad or appetizer, "I'm not quite ready to order yet, are you Relm?" he asked.

Relm nibbled a bit on her lip. "Um... not really. I think I've got it down to three choices..." She flashed a bright smile at their server, saying in her cutest and most innocent guise. "Maybe a little more time?"

The waiter gave them a good natured smile and nodded, putting his pen and pad away, "Sure thing! I'll come back in a few minutes to see if your both ready!" he said, heading off to serve another table.
Keme smiled at how patient and nice their waiter was, but he focused back on Relm, "What are your three choices?" he asked, quite curious.

It was easy to let herself fall into the world that only consisted of Keme & herself, smiling into his sweet brown eyes. A part of her realized that love could be a very dangerous thing, shutting out the rest of the world like that. Right now Relm did not care. "Mmm. Just the three I mentioned before really. I've stopped letting myself look through the other choices or I'll just find something else I like too. Chicken sounds good tonight for some reason. Maybe the soup too... I can't decide." She giggled, and swung her legs a few times. "I can't quite figure out how hungry I am."
She tilted her head sideways at Keme, just enough that her beret did not shift. "What about you? Narrowed it down at all?"

Keme 'hmmmed' softly and looked back down at his menu, and then smiled lightly, "This Mama's Trio sounds good! Lasgana, Chicken Cannelloni and Chicken Parmesan!" he said.

"Everything sounds good." Her lips pursed as she returned to perusing her menu. "I think I'll get the Chicken Cannelloni. Then you can try some, and maybe make your selection easier to make." Relm winked playfully across the table at him.
"Maybe the soup... the chicken one." Relm loved to have soups with meals. Probably one of the reasons she enjoyed going to Ivan's so often. "If I get this Toscana Soup, would you like some?" She vaguely remembered Trelweny having said at some time that when eating out normally a bowl of soup was much larger than a cup of soup which never seemed to match well with the prices.

He nodded his head, glad they had made some good choices. He closed his menu and set it down and then looked about at the restaurant. There were a few familes there, probably having dinner together for the weekend, but he could see other couples having dinner there as well.

Was that a yes? Relm nibbled her lip and watched him, then followed his example and studied the others in the restaurant. Maybe they had missed the "rush" she had heard about for dining out on a Friday. This certainly did not seem so bad.
But she was not really interested in watching the other customers. Before she might have been, having grown up always looking for something to entertain her and other people usually were the best source for that. Relm found her attention wanting to focus on Keme and the thought alone of that enthralled her. She found it facinating, even when she was only watching how the shift of air when someone hurried by their table touched Keme's fur & made the ends move. It was one thing to be enraptured by such little things when they were alone, but that in continued for her when there were others to observe and learn from quite amazed the once busybody child who was always into everyone elses business.
Relm found the change of pace refreshing and smiled.

Keme finally turned his head and focussed his attention back on Relm. When he saw her staring, he blushed brightly and fiddled with his utensils, a shy smile on his face. He let out a breath when their waiter came back.
"You two ready to make your orders?" he asked.
