He chuckled quietly. "As you wish." Victor settled into the car and wrapped himself in his seat-belt. "And I would never do such a thing. Why you would even think that offends me."

Jared wrinkled his nose a little, and drove out of the driveway. "Mm. If you say so." He replied with a soft chuckle. He sighed softly, and turned to head into town.

He laughed into his hand before shaking his head and relaxing into his chair. "So. What do you think you'll get?" He asks curiously.

Jared shrugged. "What's the best?" He replied, raising his eyebrows and glancing over at Victor, then back at the road.

Victor chuckled. "This may be my very biased reply, but their pork cutlet is delicious." He glanced at the other when he felt Jared's eyes on him.

Jared chuckled. "Mm. Alright." He replied. Once they reached town, he looked at Victor. "So where do I go?" He asked.

"So you're going to turn left here, and then keep going forward about a half mile, then turn a right." He chuckles. "It'll be at the end of the street." Victor replies.

He nodded, following Victor's instructions. "Alright." He replied, eyes flicking over the road slightly. "You know that if anyone asks questions or says anything about being a reporter, that you can't say anything in return? Except for 'no comment'." He frowned a little.

Victor was quiet for a moment before replying quietly. "Yes… I'm aware." He mutters, his eyes darkening a little bit, as if he were swallowing an unpleasant memory. He glanced at the other. "Don't worry. It's a pretty quiet place." He says softly.

Jared nodded. "Sorry if I sounded…like I control freak or something, I don't know. I just…" he let out a breath. "Paparazzi sucks." he released a breathy chuckle. "But good. Maybe no one will see me, then."

He smiled gently before shaking his head. "Not as bad as some of the clients I've had. And yes, paparazzi sucks." He sighed softly. "Besides, the owners take privacy seriously. We can get a more private booth if you want."

Jared nodded. "Alright." he hesitated. "I…would rather not get a private booth. I…don't care where we sit, but…" he shrugged. He wasn't quite sure how to explain why he didn't want a public booth.

Victor nods at the other and smiles a little bit. "No private booth then." He shrugged before looking around. "Ah. Turn here." He says quietly, pointing to the right.

Jared nodded, and followed his instructions, turning. He continued following Victor's instructions until they reached the place. He parked, locking the doors once they were both out of the car.

Victor inhaled the sweet smell of the afternoon, a little sigh escaping his lips. He could smell the food cooking and it made his mouth water. "Well, shall we?" He asks, a smile on his lips.

Jared nodded, tucking the keys in his pocket. "Sure. Lead the way." he replied, gesturing to the building with a small smile.

He chuckled quietly before guiding the other into the restaurant. He holds the door open for Jared before walking to the booth, "Hello, Mrs. K, I'd like a table for two please?" He asks, smiling warmly. The woman gasped. "Victor! You're here! I haven't seen you in a while, I got worried." She walked around the booth and hugged him tightly. She was short about 5'2, in her riper ages. Her black hair was laced white but her green orbs were filled with happiness. "Please come in. Your usual table, dear?" He nods at the question. "Mrs. K, this is a friend of mine, Jared." She glances at him and smiles warmly. "Any one who is a friend of Victor is a friend of mine, dear. Please make yourself comfortable."

Jared gave her a small smile in return. "Nice to meet you, ma'am." he greeted politely, seeing what Victor meant about being a regular here, if this woman recognized him so easily.

Victor spoke some soft words to her, the woman laughing gently in response. She nods before leaving. "This way then." He says happily, walking them to a booth that was in the open, but also had enough privacy. "Please, sit." He says kindly before sitting opposite of Jared.

Jared sat down, and nodded. "You weren't kidding about being a regular." He commented with a laugh. He smiled at Victor a little.

Victor smiled a little at that. "Mrs. K and her wife are good people. They treat their customers like family." He shrugged. He smiled a little at Jared.

Jared smiled back, and nodded. "Mm. I can tell." He replied with a soft laugh. "So… you recommend the pork?" He asked.

Victor let a blissful expression cross over his face. "The prom cutlet. It's mouthwatering. Mrs. K makes the best." He gave a quiet chuckle.

"Mm, alright." Jared replied, chuckling a little at Victor's expression.

Victor returns to normal and looks around. "I've always enjoyed coming here. It was always peaceful."
