... help me," Diego said.

"I'd be happy to," Zach said and leaned over so he could go over what some of their best dishes were, and give his opinion of the ones he'd tried before. The filet was to die for and her beef bourguignon was like being transported to France. "Order whatever you like. Or if you can't choose, we can ask for a bunch of sampling courses. It gives us a little of all of their best dishes here."

Diego's eyes lit up at that. "Let's do that one!" He said excitedly.

Zach smiled and once the waitress came over to get their order, he asked her for the sampling menu and a glass of a good red wine. They ended up sampling about seven courses, each one with nowhere near enough food to satisfy, but all together it did. Everything was delicious and their conversation was easy and felt natural. Between courses, they brought out some raspberry sorbet as a palette cleanser, and then the meal ended with a small trio of their most famous cakes in smaller form for the two of them to share.

"This one," Zach said as he took a spoonful of the limon cake and brought it up to Diego to let him try it, "is my favorite cake here. She uses fresh lemon juice and the zest."

Diego tried it and closed his eyes and moaned in delight. "Oh my god, that's delicious!" he exclaimed.

When Vivien spoke, it was with a light French accent that sounded like it had slowly been going away over time. "Why, Zach, I never thought I'd see the day you'd have an actual date here! I hope you enjoyed the food, Diego!"

Diego smiled brightly as he stood up and shook her hand warmly, "Oh, I'm not his date. I'm a paid actor to help flesh out his social image within Society." Diego leaned in conspiratorially and asked, "How am I doing?"

"Ah, oui? That makes plus de sens," she replied with a laugh while Zach shook his head at them. "You are doing perfectly! You had me quite fooled! Don't let this imbécile out of your sight though, or he'll get you into trouble!"

"I just hope he pays up at the end of the night!" Diego said. "He promised me 'an experience I would never forget'."

"Ah, that is code for the sex," Vivien laughed.

"Like you would know," Zach commented with an incredulous look and Vivien grinned at him. "It was all wonderful, Vivi. Merci, mon amie. J'apprécie tout cela."

"De rien," she replied. "Without you, the restaurant would not look so beau."

"Nah, you had a vision and you made it reality," Zach said with a shrug, like ...
