Ruby grinned in delight and triumph, looking a little less tired. "Good! I think if we're going to do the rest thing, we should start tomorrow because I've still got a huge list of things on the agenda for today." She gave a little nod, looking at him in an almost expectant sort of way.

She was smiling, and that could only mean good things. Whale even found his lips moving into a matching smile, even if his wasn't nearly so bright.

"I don't want to keep you if you have plans." He folded up his napkin, dropping a few dollars as tip on the table. "I'll be going back to my condo, then."

"Why don't you help me? That way, I can get done quicker and then perhaps join you for a movie? Or...you know...that sleep thing I keep hearing so much about." She was in a joking mood again. The prospect of getting to spend some time with him had done wonders to lighten things up and make her feel a little less tired.

"How could I help?" Whale wondered. It was a legitimate question, since he already established he was a disaster in the kitchen.

"I have more than cooking to do. There's some last minute errands to run and a few more details to finalize." If Ruby had her way, she wouldn't be cooking tonight. Her legs and back ached too much from being on her feet and zipping from place to place today.

Whale nodded; errands he could manage. "I'll take care of that."

She smiled, relieved. "Thank you. I'll reward you for it, I promise. Somehow."

"There's no need for that." Whale waved her off carelessly. "It will be my pleasure to help you."
