[ sanji grins and it's so infectious it coaxes a grin out of faye in turn. the door shuts gently behind her, representing the moment her anticipation around this night will heighten. it starts by merely looking at him: she watches sanji make his way around the counter and her eyes helplessly roam his figure. those strong and handsome features of hisโfaye is desperately attracted to him. is that why she feels nervous? she can play casual, of course she can; sauntering over to meet him at the threshold where the kitchen and living area meet, where she almost leans forward to kiss him but quickly plays it off with an awkward bow of her head instead.
casual! heh, right... ]
Great because I'm starving.
[ more than one implication there when she shoots him a wink and slips off her jacket, hanging it over the back of the chair that sits facing the kitchen. she takes a seat and watches him return to his craft. she might be a little disappointed she had to miss most of the cooking process, but who's to say there wasn't a next time? ]
I can't remember the last time I had curryโ [ she pauses, and then smiles invitingly. ] .. or the opportunity to enjoy it with such a gracious host.
np! i was at a con for most of last week and over the weekend anyway, but should be faster now.
Don't worry, I made plenty. You'll be able to eat your fill. [ there is a bit of awkwardnessโ from the both of them, reallyโ as they dance around the inevitable fact that they're about to cross the line from friends to something intimate, but haven't yet. he grins at her, eyes dipping down for a brief instant when she peels off her coat, taking all of her with an almost greedy eagerness. if it wasn't obvious that he wants her, then the look in his eye when sinks down into the chair sure makes it obvious.
the timer for the rice cooker starts to tick, which is an obvious sign that it's almost done, so he pulls out two shallow bowls and a couple of spoons and, of course, a couple of glasses as well. ] And I can't remember the last time I hosted such a beautiful guest. You want some sake or wine or something to drink? We've also got water. You might want to hydrate considering it's going to be a long night.
[ he winks at her, ignoring the slight feeling of butterflies in his stomach, and hearing the familiar ding of the timer go off, starts to assemble the meal. a generous layer of rice to one side, followed by a big ladle of the sweet but spicy curry to the other with chunks of potato and carrot and beef and onion. there's plenty left in the pot, too, just in case either of them wants seconds.
the table isn't far from the kitchen, so he carries over both bowls and sets one down in front of her, setting the other down opposite from her. flashing her another grin, he repeats his question. ] So... something to drink?
[ it's going to be a long nightโand her mind immediately wanders.
sanji turns to portion off the curry and faye becomes powerless against her daydreams: what if they said screw it to dinner and she proceeded to clear the table while he ripped her little booty shorts off and bent her over it? the images quickly become so explicit and arousing that she starts warming up, and a quiver ripples deep in her spine. she makes a subtle shift in her seat to play it down. by the time sanji is placing their bowls down, she's grounded her thoughts, hoping she isn't as red in the face as she feels, just barely catching his question the second time around. ]
Sake is good. Thank you.
[ faye smiles with affected coolness while mentally lassoing up all these dirty little thoughts that are fighting to bounce around in her head. her eyes flit from him to the pot with the remaining curry and she tells herself she will only have one bowl as the anticipation tightens up in her stomach. even with her mouth watering as she peers down at this delicious meal, she will wait for him to join before she starts digging in. coming from the likes of her, that says a lot. ]
Do you have a dish that's your favorite to prepare?
[ it isn't super obvious, but when he turns back to server her dinner and get her drink order, there's a flash of something in her dark eyes that makes the corners of his lips curl into a grin that's just a bit wider than before. sanji can't read minds, but he doesn't have to, not when there's a dusting of pink to her cheeks and that something lurking behind her gaze is familiar to him. he dips his head in a quick nod and turns back to the kitchen, reaching into the alcohol cabinet to pull out a bottle of sake and bring it back over to the table, pouring a glass for both of them.
now that dinner is served, he can let his mind wander. not that it hadn't been beforeโ even before she'd arrived, he'd vaguely been fantasizing about just tearing off every piece of clothing she had on, making her take a seat on the countertop, and burying his face between her thighs while he found out how many times he could make her come before she begged him to stop or for his cock, whichever came first. he takes a seat across from her and smiles at her question. it's one that he has an immediate answer to. ]
Anything with seafood in it. I grew up learning to cook at a sea restaurant, you know, so we were always preparing dishes with fish or muscles or shrimp or... well, you get the picture. [ while he's speaking, he gathers up a spoonful of rice and curry, still looking at her, still vaguely imagining what she looks like completely nude, and takes a bite as soon as he finishes, sighing with satisfaction. the critic in him thinks he could have simmered the brother a few minutes less and added a touch more apple to improve the flavor, but it's still a good dish. ] They're just comforting to make. And wherever you go, there's always different kinds of fish around, some I've never cooked with, so it's a bit of challenge, too.
[ while he's taking another bite of curry, followed up by a sip of the sake, his other hand slips under the table and rests his palm against her bare knee, fingers tapping softly on her thigh. ] What about you, Faye? Do you cook much? Or have any fun hobbies?
