Oh. Yum. Quiche. Nice guys apparently eat quiche, with leeks and goat cheese, no less. Let's not think about what real men eat.

Stop it, Buffy! Mark is a real man. A nice, normal, gainfully employed, quiche-eating man. With nice table manners.

"How's your quiche, Buffy?" Steak.

"It's nice." Insert flirtatious smile here. Bat the eyelashes. Tilt head to side. "How's yours?"

Prime rib. Beef tenderloin. Philly cheese steak sandwiches.

Oooh, cheese.

"It's good." Camembert, Brie, aged cheddar. Emmenthaler. Mozzarella.

"Did you like the movie?"

Deep-dish double pepperoni with extra extra extra mozza.

"Yeah, it was fun." Nice guy, nice movie. "Anything with John Cusack is automatically on my top ten list."

Evil Dead. Nightmare on Elm Street. Scream.

"Did you like it?" The Long Kiss Goodnight. Replacement Killers. 9 ½ Weeks. Stopping now.

"Absolutely." Focus on the nice guy. Nice man with nice arms, talking about a nice movie over a nice dinner.

". . . fruit plate?" Huh?

Oh. "Sure. That sounds good." Smile at the nice guy, B. "I like fruit."

Double fudge chocolate brownie chunk. Tiramisu. Key Lime Pie. Nutella. Cocoa with marshmallows and whipped cream. Lots and lots of whipped cream.

"So, uh, Buffy."

"Yes?" Nice Mark. Look deep into his nice brown eyes.

"We've been going out for a couple of weeks now, and I like you. A lot."

"I like you, too." Long eyelashes. Deep blue eyes. Silver rings around the pupils. Silver rings on pale hands. Long slender fingers. Ragged fingernails.

"I mean, I like you a whole lot, and I thought, if you're ready, maybe we could take our relationship to the next level." Oh he's nervous. How nice. And what a really sweet way of asking.

"I'd like that." Come outside. Let's fuck. You wanna dance? Let me in. Open wide. Make me pop like cheap champagne. That's my girl. "That would be nice."

Maybe next time I will bite you.

Nice man. Nice car, nice apartment. Nice, soft bed with clean white sheets.

"You're so beautiful, Buffy." You're an animal. "Does this feel good?"

That's my nasty bitch.

"Did you, uh? y' know?" Beg me for it, pet, scream my name. That's it, oh yeah, fuck, fuck yeah, come for me, luv, come hard, oh yeah, yeah, that it's, oh fuck! JesusfuckingChrist! Oh yeah.

"It was nice." I think you ripped my dick off, Slayer. Do it again. "It was really nice."
