"Erm... ookay." Mike found himself staring at the menu, one item in particular consuming his attention.
Hot... cinnamon... fnog.
"That... is just so wrong. On so many levels."
With that, he turns to the man behind the counter. "I'll take two."

"Howdy! You must be new 'round town. Too hot cinammon fnogs? That'll be $6! Care to try my special cheesecake? First slice is on the house!"
*- $6 from your account*
((*poofs back to me-me*))
Meanwhile, a bell was heard as Stephanie pushed the door open, motioning Aleu to follow her inside the heated room. So nice and toasty compared to the outside... She shook the snow off of her boots and peeled off her winter coat. "This is it, 'leu. The cafe. You should try something. The stuff they have here is really good..." Her gaze turned a certain someone at the counter. Naturally, she took a few steps towards him. "Mike..?"

"...Stephanie..?"
Two mugs of hot fnog find themselves alone and abandoned as their owner scoops Stephanie into his arms. In absolute, awestruck silence, he simply cuddles the surprised girl, unable to speak. As he finds his voice, the first few words escape his lips in an awestruck whisper: "...am I dreaming..?"

Stephanie squeaked as he wrapped his arms around her in a gentle squeeze. A soft laugh was heard as she leaned in close to embrace him. "Only if you want to be..." she whispered back, happy and content.
"Aleu!" she called, turning back to her companion. "Look at who we've found! It's f0n9!"

"Yep!" The one called Fnog literally scoops Stephanie up into his arms, holding her bridal style as he turns to greet his friend. "Hallo, 'leu. ...I'd shake your hand, but mine are kinda full," he adds sheepishly, giving the girl in his arms a soft squeeze before carrying her to the table and setting her gingerly in a chair.
"Erm... want some fnog?" he asks her, offering her the mugs of cinnamon he had abandoned. "My treat..."

Stephanie blushed softly as he set her down into the chair. This was new, but all the same, she was glad to have found her boyfriend. "Sure..! I'd love some..." She accepted the fnog. "Looks like they named a drink after you... don't you feel loved?"

"Hehe. I do... but I don't think it's because I have a drink named after me," he said with a smile. His fingers lingered on the cup as she took it, allowing his fingertips to brush against hers in passing.
"Either way, I hope you enjoy my namesake... I hear it's actually fairly good." If nothing else, the cinnamon drink certainly smelled good; in the excitement of the moment, Mike had never actually gotten to try his drink. After passing the mug to Stephanie, he quickly rectified the situation, eyes widening at just a sip of the... whatever-it-was.
"Well, whatever it is, it's certainly good... very cinnamony."

"Maybe that's why they call it Hot Cinnamon fnog," the girl replied teasingly, as she took a sip. "Yum... it is good." In all of the excitement, she realized that poor Aleu must be completely lost and left out. She waved him over. "Come here, 'leu!" Indicating the seat across from her, she said, "You have to try some of the cheesecake here. It's amazing. And try some of this too!" She waved the cup back and forth.
With a glance, her eyes focused on f0n9-Mike again. "Were you just stopping by here before heading towards the cottage?"

"Mmhmm! Well, I also had some shopping I wanted to do," he ventured, patting his 'pack. "Wanna get me a bigger bed... I'm tired of sleeping on twin beds, and this is my chance to change that." A playful smile spread across his face, slowly sobering as he thinks to himself.
"Hmm... need to hit the gift shop, for certain people who shall not be named..." he flashes a playful look in Stephanie's direction before continuing; "...wanna hit the grocery store, since I figure I'm going to be cooking... and I think I want to check in the breedery. Maybe I might get a puppy."

Aleu made a literal sweatdrop (right hand up, make the little curl, right hand dooowwnnn!) and sat down a couple tables away. "I'll give you both your privacy, ne?" he said. "Little lovebirds like you don't do well with company," he added jokingly.
"Okay, so. I'll have, uh, cheesecake, and, and, and... coffee. With milk, if you don't mind?"

Mike throws a wry smile in Aleu's direction. "Very funny, 'leu," he remarks dryly, before taking another sip of fnog. "Sure you're not gonna try the fnog? It's good..."

"I'd love to go with you... would you mind?" Stephanie asked Mike, giving him a pleading look. "I know that there's a really nice furniture store in town if you want to go there. ...I don't think you'll need to go to the grocery store. I just went shopping the day before and the fridge is packed. As for the puppies, I'd love to come!"
As she finished she mock-glared at Aleu. "We're not that embarrassing!"
*FoF mode*
"Here ya go, son," the man at the register replied, handing him a plate with a rather large slice of cheesecake. "It's on the house! Newcomers always get a free slice! And what did you say you want? A cup of coffee? I'll get it right now. That'd be $2, please."
*-$2 from account*

Aleu shivered. "I can take seventeen types of interpretations of that, and only one isn't sexual and/or horrendously wrong. I think I'll pass, at least until you're out of eyesight."
"Thanks," Mike said, taking the cup and plate from the (Texan, was he?) man. "I'll be hanging around the general store, and maybe the breeders, after this. Fong, remember, this is a PG-13 forum :3"

One eyelid begins to twitch as Mike rolls his eyes, sighing at Aleu. "You are an odd one, comrade of mine."
Turning his attention back to Ari, he gives her hand a gentle squeeze as he replies. "I'd be glad to have you with me, if you want to come. I'd never turn your company down."

"Thank you... I'm glad. Are you ready to head off right now?" She smiled at Mike, as she finished the last of her drink.
