"I thought a devil like me didn't deserve you.

But when I saw the monsters surround you.

I knew I had to engulf you."

                 ......

They sit on a street restaurant in silence, her eyes taking in the food placed in front, while his fixed at her.

Not remembering the last time she looked so excited.

Food?

Food made her so happy? Well that was easy. Even though, he hated eating street food and he could rarely digest it simply. He came here for her.

She dives in the food. Almost moaning in its flavours.
Making him remember how she moaned when he used to shower her with kisses, and taking her after it . How her curves would feel-

Shi*!

He curse in his mind. Stopping himself.

How can she so innocently make him feel like this?

So ignorant of the thoughts going on in his mind.

"You are not going to eat?"

She asks, and he just shows her his hand. Looking at the sea food she offers him.

"No. I am fine."

She shrugs her shoulder. Stopping in between.

"You still don't eat street food. Do you?"

"No."

She gives him a dissapointed look. Continuing with eating.

"You are really missing something in your life Ethan. Here try one bite atleast."

He looks at the fork extended towards her,to stare back at her face.

"Fine. Don't eat. Your loss."

Rolling her eyes, she was going to put it in her mouth when he stops her. Placing his hand on her wrist.

Her eyes widen as he moves the fork closer to his mouth.
Taking the bite while staring at her.

She was shocked would be an understatement.
Ethan Lockwood never eats street food...like never!
She remembers forcing him to have it all those years back but he never once agreed.

Untill today.

She waited for his reaction to see an emotionless look plastered on his face.
Gulping the bite he barely nods.

Not meeting her excited eyes.

"So how was it?"

She asks to have him nod.

"Fine. It was fine."

He was lying. She could tell he loved it but he didn't show it. Plus his stomach was grumbling telling he was starving.

"Umm I don't feel like eating anymore. Let's go."

She says getting up when he looks at her surprised.

"You haven't even eaten half of it. First complete it."

"I don't want to. Stop forcing me Ethan!"

"But it's good Vivian. We should not waste it."

"If you are so concerned. Why don't you eat it?"

He shakes his head at her, unable to see the hidden smirk on her lips. Pulling her plate , starting to eat it.

This is what she wanted.
He would never agree if she offered and his stomach announced that he was starving.

So ,she had to play this trick.
