“So,” Sam says with a teasing tone to her voice. “Do you always take your dates out to places like this?” She nods around the shabby interior of a room that barely passes as a restaurant. Her eyes glint in amusement.

Cam, sitting across the table from her, shrugs sheepishly. “Only for the first date,” he jokes. “If they’re still interested after that, I know then that they like me and not just my money.”

“Pretty good system if you ask me,” Sam smiles. “Of course there is another reason why they might stick around.” She takes a mouthful of cheeseburger and chews it thoughtfully.

“And what’s that?” Cam asks once she’s had time to swallow.

“They like fast food,” Sam grins. She pokes him playfully in the shoulder and proceeds to snatch a handful of fries from his plate when she pulls her hand back.

Cam fakes a pout. “Hey! That’s not fair!”

“Using the ‘not fair’ card on the first date,” Sam says. “That’s playing a little dangerously, isn’t it?” Her eyes meet Cam’s in a silent challenge, a game of wits.

Cam smirks. “What can I say? I love living on the edge.”

“It is a good place to live,” Sam agrees. “Sometimes.”

“Yeah. Sometimes.”

They fall silent and work on the rest of their meals while sneaking glances at each other. Though they’d faced life or death situations together plenty of times, neither had felt so alive and so very vulnerable. It was an addictive sensation – one Sam knew she could get used to and one Cam had been yearning for, for years.

“Well. That was really nice,” Sam finally says. “Thank you, Cam.”

Cam can’t stop the grin from spreading over his face and so ducks his head slightly, happily. “It was nice,” he confirms. “I’ve had a really great time with you tonight.”

“Better than great.”

“A lot better.” His cheeks tinge red. “Actually, I was hoping you’d like to go out for dinner again sometime. Next Tuesday maybe?”

Sam’s face matches his own. “Definitely.”

“Can’t wait,” Cam replies. “Until then, are you ready for the next stage of our date?”

“Oh? There’s more?”

They both stand up and Cam nods. “I was thinking we’d take a walk down the beach. It’s romantic and we also get to work off some of the fast food. Take my hand?”

Sam takes his hand in hers without a moment’s hesitation. “Let’s go.”

Adorable. You just made my day. :)

If you're looking for concrit, that interim paragraph of narrative feels just a touch out of sync with the rest of the piece. It's not enough to detract from the rest of it, though--your characters are spot-on, as always!
