Quickest way to a man's heart

[counter_point]

[Allen has never been particularly known for brashness when it came to relationships. Other odds and ends, sure; but relationships he took nice and slow under the pressure of acting gentlemanly and proper. He's given leeway in recent months and weeks with Aqua here and there with a willingness to publicly display affection in minor ways. 

Still, he's hesitant to go further and thus far she's been accommodating to. So when the offer of dinner is made, he's on board drawn in by his stomach and politeness. The way to man's heart is through his stomach as they say and Allen is no different. If anything, it's a short trip given his love of food.

It's her place, him dressed somewhat casual with a limp long sleeve shirt and worn jeans. He's persistent keeping his left arm under wraps to not frighten people, its appearance unusual to say the least for his occupation as an exorcist. The scars about his body aren't as easily seen, but hidden none the less adding the pile of issues he has with getting more intimate.

With a gentle knock on her door, he waits curious and holding a half smile. Come to think of it, he never did ask her was was for dinner.]

[Aqua was in the kitchen, trying to cook up enough food for the two of them. She wanted tonight to be special for the two of them. Something to help bring the spice back into their relationship. Or, well, more spice. She loved Allen, really she did, but she wanted him to be a bit more....affectionate? More open? less reserved! That's what she wanted.

He was always holding himself with such high standards that it was hard for her to relax around him at times. Or get him to relax and enjoy the moment. Which was probably why she went a bit overboard with the food. She didn't just cook some of the food, she contacted a caterer to prepare a whole plethora of things. Even to where all the food took the entirety of her dinner table.

By the time Allen came to her door the scent of different treats were wafting through. Aqua came up to the door wearing a flowy little black dress and greeted him with a kind smile.]

Hello. Come in, I hope you're hungry.

[She opened the door further to show off the spread for the two of them.]
