Too Much Hospitality

After a while the waitress brought their plates to them, the steaks were impressive, each one uniform, topped with a melting slice of parsley butter, running over the grilled lines of the steak, a portion of golden and crispy seasoned fries, crispy fried onions, a balsamic glazed tomato and their accompanying lettuce wedge and sauce.

As the waitress left them once more Ash couldn’t help but laugh, drawing Laura’s attention away from the plate to her date, “What?..”

“You’re looking at your steak like you look at me.” he grinned, hands reaching for his knife and fork.

She smirked broadly and shrugged in faux innocence, collecting her own cutlery and not waiting on any sort of ceremony before she tucked in, “Guilty as charged hun. You certainly know how to take care of a woman.”

He smiled, feeling pleased with his choice of restaurant and joined her in eating.

The conversation dwindled some as they enjoyed their meal, but the glances they shared were telling, the food, the conversation, enjoyable as they were, couldn’t drag their minds from what they were each imagining doing with the other.

“You um..” Ash bit his lip, close to finishing his meal as Laura waited patiently. He had eaten much more slowly and daintily compared to her, much to her amusement, and his now almost empty glass of wine had certainly gotten to him ever so slightly, “Think we’ll still have time for a movie?”

Laura tilted her head, a hand toying gently with a lock of her golden hair, they had been served rather fast, she had no doubt they’d have time for a film.

“Why? Did you have something else in mind?” she asked curiously.

He shrugged a little, looking at her with a highly feminine, come-hither look, a slight smirk on his expression.

“Oh. Oooh.. Mm. You know, I don't think we will. We’d be a bit rushed and the cinema would probably be full and cramped.. It would make more sense just to come back to mine.. I can put some porn on my widescreen mirror..”

Ash opened his mouth to say something, but paused, working out what she had said. “..You read that online didn’t you?”
