Hakuba smiled, glad that the other was enjoying their food, “You are quite welcome.” He took another sip of his wine before taking another bite of his steak, mixing it a bit with the mashed potatoes, chewing slowly before taking his napkin and gently dabbing the sides of his mouth. “Desert will be a double layered cake made with milk and white chocolate.” Hakuba explained. “In between the two layers is a chocolate and white chocolate mousse, and each layer of cake has one of the chocolates for icing, and there are shaved pieces of both on top with some whipped cream.”
Hakuba knows the others fondness for chocolate, and so he made something that he knew would have the other drooling, in hopes that he’ll choose to behave and do well, rather then tease and push him. Not that he would do anything too invasive, he already knew what he wanted for the day, it was more the two rules he was worried about the other following. He hoped the cake would get the other to follow them more willingly.
“All invited guests are welcome.” Hakuba explains. “Sometimes when people show up out of the blue, it is a nice surprise as well, though of course it depends on time and reasoning for them showing up.” It was vague, but so was the situation honestly. He could be referring to Kaito or KID, or of someone else entirely, but he was sure the other would understand him without the need to explain.
…
He would have perfectly fine not knowing what the dessert was until it was time to have it. But nope. They’d only just started the meal, and he was already wanting to skip to the end. The idea of behaving badly had already been tossed aside when he’d come into the room, but the cake was definitely a good incentive to leave it discarded.
It took a while for him to notice he’d been staring at the other, mouth slightly open, another piece of meat already on the fork. When he did realise, he quickly took the bite, trying to get the chocolate thoughts out of his head as he chewed.
“Hmm… nice to know,” He commented, “And the dessert certainly does sound great.~”
A few more bites from the plate, another small sip of the wine, and he paused.
“Something like that sounds as though it would take some time to make…”
