...thanks, Jasmine.

[Still smiling, but now with a hint of sadness in his eyes, he slips the necklace over his head.

Aaaand he's gotten a little distracted. He clears his throat.]

Ahem. Uh, I- I didn't think we'd need a dessert other than the pastries, so I guess that's... dinner...

[...and that sounded stupid. Man, he can't mess this up now.]

W-which means I'm open to suggestions for the rest of the evening.

[Nailed it.]

[callmeaprincess]

[She gently admires the necklace on his chest - it suits him perfectly. The ideal accessory.

When she senses the awkwardness, her teasing nature returns with another smirk.] Dessert, before dinner? How bold.

[For dramatics, she puts a finger on her cheek as if pondering her options.]

How long do we have before your roommates return?

[onejump]

[The tone of her voice definitely has him distracted again, and he swallows. Okay. Be cool. Be cool, Al-]

I- I think we have at least a couple more hours, why?

[...okay, so much for cool.]

1/not 7

[callmeaprincess]

Mmm, I think that's enough time for-

2/no really not 7

[callmeaprincess]

[For what, Jasmine?]

3/I promise

[callmeaprincess]

[Don't be scandalous, she wouldn't dare think-]

4/still not 7

[callmeaprincess]

[Two hours alone is plenty of time-]

5/not quite

[callmeaprincess]

[Jasmine, please, you don't even know if Aladdin-]

6/surprise it's more than 7

[callmeaprincess]

[He's absolutely thinking about it, look at him. He thought you'd be doing that the day he arrived, he's probably been wanting it more than even you-]

7/I cannot be stopped

[callmeaprincess]

[No, they can't. This isn't the way. They don't even know when they'll be married, let alone anything el-]

8/okay fine it's 9

[callmeaprincess]

[Jasmine, you've been sitting in silence for like ten minutes, say somethi-!]

9/9 I regret nothing

[callmeaprincess]

[About two minutes pass before she finally continues.]

F-for... a carpet ride over the lake. O-of course.

[What do you mean she was considering something else, why on earth would you insinuate such a thing.]

[onejump]

[... Oh, that's... a reaction. And a long pause And it's not hard to imagine why.

Or maybe it's just him.

He watches her face shift as she thinks about what she's going to say, and for a moment he's not even sure what he's hoping for her to say. Even when she finally finishes her sentence, he's not sure if he's relieved or-

Well, anyway.]

Oh! Of... of course.

[He awkwardly rubs at the back of his neck, smiling a little.]

Y'know, we don't, uh, need the house to ourselves for that, we won't even be here.

[callmeaprincess]

That's... true. [Wait, is he suggesting...?]

Does that mean you have something better in mind?

[There, nice and vague, he's free to make his own choicesters the ball is in his court.]

[onejump]

[It's been on his mind since you stepped into the house, Jasmi-]

N-no, no, that sounds great! The lake is always nice this time of night, and it's not as cold today.

Holy crap, is it finally time to wrap?! (That rhymed)

[callmeaprincess]

Oh... [Uh oh, that doesn't sound disappointed, does it...?]

W-well, wonderful! Gives me... a chance to see how these look in the moonlight...!

[She gestures to the newly-gifted earrings she's donning.]

Then, shall we get Carpet?

/WRAP!

[onejump]

Uh, yeah. Of course. Just let me clean this up...

[Clearing the dishes away should at least give him some time to calm down from whatever that was. He'll just go ahead and do that as quickly as possible, and then they can be off.]
