Some ridiculously expensive restaurant [Georgetown, Sunday night]

[sith_happened]

Anakin smiled at Rory across the candlelit table before picking up his wine glass and holding it up. "Happy Valentine's Day," he said. "You look beautiful." His smile widened. "As usual."

After almost a week snowed in with Juliet, he wasn't sure if he was allowed to feel almost giddy with excitement about having time alone with his wife, but he was anyway. And he didn't even mind wearing a suit out to get that time alone.

I've no interest in repeating that Henry and Sarah movie scene, he assured her, taking a sip of wine himself and then giving her a little smile. Just in getting dragged into a bathroom stall.

You don't think they'd notice? she wondered.

[sith_happened]

Jedi, he replied a little smugly. They won't notice.

Interesting.

Rory shot him a smile, trying to appear demure. She could hold out longer, thank you.

[sith_happened]

Well, if this was going to turn into a battle of stubbornness, things would get very interesting.

He curled his toes a bit and then smiled at her. "Roll?" he asked innocently.

Rory, in turn, did something new. She reached a hand down and neatly tugged the bodice of her cute Valentine's-date dress down another inch.

"Sure."

Anakin swallowed hard. "That's cheating."

Not that he really cared.

"What?" Rory asked, biting her lower lip.

[sith_happened]

"You know exactly what," Anakin replied, moving his foot again.

Rory leaned a little more forward, this time offering a look at the teensy bit of red lace that was peeking up out of her top, now.

[sith_happened]

Anakin's breath hitched, and he reached into the Force and cheated right back.

Rory let out a very small squeak, her eyes going wide, and pressed her foot against him in return.

Anakin bit his lip to stop making noise, instead choosing to start taking apart a roll for something to do with his hands.

Rory smirked triumphantly, just before -- oh no -- spilling some water on her dress.

"Oh dear," she said, dabbing at it. And 'dabbing' was really a nice way to say 'rubbing and thus moving her cleavage around' here.

I am this close to just disappearing under the table and making you whimper, he replied, turning his roll into tiny, frustrated crumbs.

"I have to go powder my nose," Rory declared suddenly, as people totally do, normally. "In the ladies' room. Where there will be a bathroom attendant who I hope will suddenly find she needs to be somewhere else in a moment."

"She will," Anakin said, giving her a smile and taking a few minutes to, well, be able to stand up without being stared at before heading in the same general direction as Rory had headed.
