“I’ll try that too.” Belle smiled at him. “It has to be good, or it wouldn’t be a special” She reasoned, more for her own benefit than his. She could tell he had been very hungry so she didn’t want to take too long in ordering. Besides, if he was getting it then he didn’t mind the price.

“Yes, I’m ready.” She responded. She closed her menu to show that she really was ready. When the waitress came over, they put in their orders. Belle decided to get water, because that was the safest thing she could get. She knew she’d like that. She looked around at the various pictures on the wall.

“It’s interesting in here” She comments. She was never really good at small talk, but she hoped it might help him take his mind off of his hunger and whatever else was bothering him. “I wonder if there’s a library nearby. There has to be one here somewhere.” There she was talking about books again. So she changed the subject. “Do you think there's a reason we’re in this Paixao place?” It was something to talk about, not to mention something they definitely had in common. They were both there, and quite randomly.
