[ Sitting there, in that booth, across from Carlos was simply magical, listeners, like a scene straight out of a dream! Now, I know it's far too early to consider that a date, but oh! How I wish it was one!Sitting there, looking at Carlos, my heart would not stop pounding in my chest. Like the pounding of drums, like the pounding of fists against the pavement as we all curse gravity for keeping us trapped on the cold, hard ground...
Oh, Carlos doesn't have to worry about anyone finding his lack of points and sharp edges to be strange in any way. No one ever has their teeth and nails when they first come to Desert Bluffs. It's when they've given in to the city's influence and made a home in the Bluffs that they acquire them. Some don't fully get them until they've been here for years, for others it's only a matter of hours. Carlos might even be able to find someone else who's relatively blunt if he looks hard enough.
And they're probably not all looking at him. Probably. Kevin's eyes are too focused on Carlos to notice if anyone else is looking at them, but if anyone is making Carlos uncomfortable, Kevin would be more than happy to take care of that. He'd hate for this perfect visitor of theirs to be made uncomfortable! That would just make him want to leave and they can't have that! But Kevin doesn't say so. That would be much too forward of him. Instead, he continues to smile at Carlos, shaking his head at the protest. ]
Don't think anything of it! I am more than happy to pay for you! I am the one who brought you here, after all. What do you think you're going to get? Personally, the lasagna is my favorite. Oh, but the potato gnocchi are almost magical they're so good!
[ But, really, it doesn't matter what Carlos gets. Everything on the menu is simply wonderful! He's never met a person who has disliked the food here. In fact, many people made the decision to stay in Desert Bluffs just based on the food! Maybe it's something in the sauce. The sauce is truly one of the best things about it. The sauce is different from any other sauce. Oh, it's not blood, of course! Not all of the sauce is even red! The Alfredo sauce certainly isn't red. That would be unsanitary, unhealthy! But there is something off about the sauce, completely unnoticeable if you aren't looking for it. ]
