"Yes, she did enjoy it. And you're not, sorry, but I'm hoping you last longer than the other girl did," Archer said, his smile dropping slightly before he caught himself and beamed charmingly at Addie.

Addie noticed the momentary lapse, but she pretended not to notice. “I hope so, too.” She hoped her thoughts of (guy whose name i have not thought of yet) weren’t written all over her face.
group
They weren't, but Archer noticed nonetheless. He didn't say anything, though, just smiled and searched the menu.
“What are you going to get?” Addie asked him, looking up from her own menu.
group
"The escargot," Archer said, trying to keep a straight face.
“Interesting,” Addie said, also trying to keep a straight face, but for different reasons. “I am not getting that.”
group
Archer scrunched his nose up.
"Yeah… Neither am I… You know what you're ordering?" he asked.
//googles menu
“Um… maybe the bouillabaisse?” Addie said hesitantly. She honestly had no clue what all the French names meant, especially the mildly unpronounceable ones like ‘bouillabaisse’.
group
As the author has no idea what the heck that is, Archer smiled.
"Good choice. I think I'll get the same."
Addie smiled. “Okey dokey, sounds good.” She looked around the busy restaurant. “Do the waiters come to us, or….?”

"Yes, they do," Archer chuckled. "But it's very busy here, so we will probably have to wait awhile."
//#same tho
“Okay,” Addie said happily, leaning back in her chair. “So how’s life?”
group
(I literally almost cried because I thought something was literal instead of figurative in my English assignment. It's nit even that big if a deal, but…)
"Life is great, at the moment. I'm sitting across from someone very lovely," Archer stated with a smile.
//aww. I’m here if I can help with anything
Addie blushed. “Well, I could say the same thing… Except for replace ‘lovely’ with ‘handsome’.” She smiled shyly.
group
(I'm better now.)
"Well, thank you," Archer said with a smile.
//that’s good.
“You’re welcome,” Addie smiled back.
group
A waiter finally walked up and took their order, then told them that it would be about an hour.
"Thank you," Archer said as the waiter walked away.
//do they have a window seat? If not I can change this
Addie leaned towards the window, holding her hair back from falling into her face with one hand. “Everything looks so tiny,” she said, amazed.
group
(Sure. Lol. I hadn't thought about that, tbh.)
"It does, doesn't it? Makes you think about how important we really are in this giant world of many people," Archer mused.
“We’re all insignificant, really,” Addie agreed. “Each of us, a fleeting blip on Histoy’s radar.”
group
"Unless you somehow manage to become important," Archer agreed with a nod.
“Even so, your imprint is eventually stepped on, erased from the history books,” Addie said thoughtfully, absentmindedly drumming her fingers on the table. “I wrote something about that, once….”
group
"True… Why don't we move onto less deep of a topic?" Archer chuckled. His writer can't handle much more deep stuff, due to the fact that one of her other RPs is kinda sad but very exciting.
//XD
Addie laughed, much like her writer did when she read that comment. “Sure. Puppies.”

"I had a dog when I was younger. Shep. He was pretty old," Archer said.
Addie’s face fell. “Ah, bad subject. Umm…. ice cream…?”
group
Archer frowned a bit when Addie's face fell, and he hoped he hadn't said something wrong.
"Um… Oh, I like rocky road. What about you? What's your favorite?" he asked.
“That’s so hard!” Addie exclaimed. She hoped she hadn’t made things awkward by trying to avoid talking about Archer’s former dog. “Umm… yeah, probably rocky road for me, too.”
group
(Never actually had rocky road before. Lol. But I've had something called Moose Tracks. It's so good.)
"Really? That's cool!" Archer said.
A waiter came over with their food and set it in front of them. Archer thanked him before he walked away.
