"I don't like it too much," Rin admitted with an irritable scowl. She felt like he was calling her incompetent.
She eyed the offered piece, now was her chance to make a point. She leaned in and bit the fork, hard, almost taking it with the piece. She withdrew with her prized chocolate in tow. At least she got to have more.

Her wasn't trying to call her stupid, just sort of cute in that never-done sorta way. He always considered Rin more sexual and more experienced than he was due to her ability to be more free and less restricted in the bedroom. To find out there was something she hadn't done, or at least not often, just came off as endearing to him.
The bite to the fork was noted, and Melvin slowly crossed his legs at he felt a bit of empathy for the fork. "Okay. I get it. No talking about that then." He also guessed he wouldn't be looking forward to that anytime soon. Not without some reassurance that he wouldn't be treated like that fork.
He took another piece off the cake and offered it to her again. "Then something else?" He looked to her. The conversation ball was in her court. He was trying not to ask too much, and considering he just asked something that upset her, he'd adopt the tactic of letting her speak more.

Rin looked quite satisfied as Melvin's body shifted just a bit, giving away his crossing of the legs. "Thank you," she replied with a s**t-eating smirk. It's lovely when the pets learn their place.
She leaned in, chin resting on both hands, then took the next piece with more care. Not that she was implying anything anymore. She swallowed the cake down hard and coughed a little to clear her throat.
"So. Do you have any hobbies? Other than cleaning I mean," she reached for her drink to wash the crumbs down. We can discuss more of that later.

He cut another piece for her and held it out once more. "Well, I like listening to music. I used to go to concerts and a few underground basement parties before coming here. I also liked swimming and, on occasion, fishing. My dad is really into fishing and started teaching me and my brother at a young age. I still enjoy it. I miss it since coming to the island since it's too dangerous."
He tilted the fork a bit to keep a bit of the chocolate from falling off, but when it continued to slide down the fork, he just let it.

Rin listened curiously. Some of it was expected, but most came as a surprise to her. She let this slice linger, just a bit.
"I like swimming too. Even on the island." She leaned in conspiratorially, "where are we going after dinner?"
It was then she finally leaned in tongue first to steal the contents of his fork.

This is where his plan got a little fuzzy. "Well, it's up to you. We can take a walk through the park or we can go to a dance downtown." He informed her. He wasn't sure how up for either it was. It had been rather hard just booking a lot of the things he wanted. By the time he set up the agenda, he wasn't sure what else to add on.

Rin cracked a devious little smirk, "I think I've got something even better." She suddenly grabbed her glass and tossed back her remaining drink. "Are there any nearby bodies of water?"

He wasn't sure what she was getting at, but if she wanted to go somewhere, he was up to check it out. "There is the Thames that cuts through London. I don't know of any other places. I haven't been to London expect for this."

"Are you up for possibly getting arrested?" Rin asked while giving Melvin an even look. She gently sat her glass back down, contents completely drained.

He thought of the expensive, luxurious hotel room waiting for them. He thought of how comfortable that bed would be and the long night of activity he felt guaranteed to get. He thought of champagne, fresh linens, and room service and the rose petals he ordered. Then he thought of a cell with a stiff, overused cot where drug addicts and hobos who never saw antibacterial hand soap in years slept.
"Sounds fun." He managed weakly.

Rin reached out to place her hand gently on the back of his. "I was hoping you would say that," she then relinquished her touch to grab her napkin. She gently dabbed the crumbs from the corner of her mouth and placed the soiled cloth upon her plate. A signal she was certain would advise that she was done and ready to leave.

Melvin took a finger, wiped a little corner of chocolate drizzle that hadn't been touched, licked it, and had his sweet tooth fed. Wiping his own lips, as if that was even necessary, he set it down and rose, offering his hand to her.
"Bill is already paid in full. Come. Lead the way to your crazy, potentially-illegal idea." He just hoped it didn't ruin her dress. He wanted to see her in it again sometime.
In a odd turn of events, Melvin's planned evening now went to a uncertain schedule and was in Rin's hands.

Rin took his offered hand and rose up with him. "But my dear, you are the one who knows where the river is located." She smiled at him, calm and unreadable. A smile was good nonetheless, right?

"I think I'll leave that to our driver." He was still new to London after all, but he had seen the river a few times and wondered if it even had an access point for swimmers. He wasn't sure.
Taking her hand, he left the room of soft classical music, dim lights, and romantic mutterings from other couples and stepped into the elevator. After a moment, the rental picked them up and he asked the driver to take them to the Thames.

Rin joined him in the taxi. The smile continuing the entire way. It was almost poetic; even in the world of normalcy, chaos was chosen over perfection. Always. She would not have it any other way.
Her gaze shifted back to Melvin as they settled at each others side in the back of the vehicle. He was willing to give that much up for her. Without question. How things have changed...
The wheels began to turn, carrying them onward to a new adventure.
