Cafe Fina, Sunday

[mistressofblack]

Lulu... wasn't one for Valentine's Day.

She was, however, one for the business opportunities offered by Valentine's Day. As such, she'd spent a bit of time before her shift today conscripting the dishes (and a few of her dolls) into setting up some subtle, tasteful Valentine's-themed decorations. Cafe Fina was, as always, the best casual-upscale

Price was very well aware of what day it was, and that the timing had led to the delay of their date.

That didn't mean he couldn't show up and catch a meal, right?

He stood by the inside of the entrance, dressed in a nice blue shirt and grey trousers with proper dress shoes and everything. Not a lick of his outfit actually looked military, for once.

But there he waited, hoping to be led to a table.

"Captain Price!" Lulu exclaimed. "I'd not expected to see you this evening."

She was totally checking him out; the outfit, she thought, was most distinctly flattering. "May I invite you to take a table?" she asked, moving around the counter.

"You may," Price said, smiling at her. "Otherwise I'd have to stand and be hungry at whoever walked past. That would be awful."

Lulu couldn't help but laugh. "Yes, I rather suppose it would," she agreed. "Please, this way," Lulu added, leading Price to a table by the window. "Can I start you with something to drink tonight?"

[stayingfrosty]

"You can," Price said. "Red wine, I think. Something not too fancy, but not chap, neither."

[mistressofblack]

"I have just the wine," Lulu said, smiling softly. "Just one moment, Captain, and I'll have it brought up for you."

"Perfect," Price said, taking his seat at the table. "I figured you'd know your wines better than I do."
