Entente Cordial

"I've had a broken arm for months now, my needs are worse than yours, woman!" He snapped, before realizing he had snapped.

She glared.

"I need food, shelter, and clothing--your 'needs' are of no concern to me unless you make zem my concern."

Benji pouted, looking away.

"I'm sorry I snapped. And because I have to fire you."

She sighed.

"Why can't I just work for you during the day and date you at night when I am not working?! Zat was all I was suggesting--it's not as if I plan to give you lapdances on your time. I am no prostitute."

He opened his mouth to protest, then stopped.

"...really? That would work?"

She nodded slowly.

"...You mean you didn't know zat?"

"...Are you sure that's legal?" He asked, looking at her sternly.

She nodded, rolling her eyes.

He smiled.

"Wonderful! That works perfectly, then!"

She grinned.

"So, my hobbies include shopping and fine dining--when is our first date?"

"Tonight." He said, nodding.

She smiled.

"Where are you taking me?~"

"...I know just the place." He lied, smiling nervously.

She giggled, running a hand along his arm.

"Remember, I like shopping and expensive things~"

He nodded, swallowing nervously.

"Right."

Jacqueline smiled.

"You are so cute, Mister Datta...but in any case, it's time to get back to my job. What would you like for lunch?"

Benji adjusted his tie. He hadn't been in a suit in forever. It felt so strange...

It also felt strange to be going on a date with a woman. He had actually never dated a woman before.

Jacqueline sashayed into the room, tugging on her miniskirt slightly.

"Benji, I am ready~" she cooed, draping herself over his shoulders. "Where are you taking me?"

He smiled sheepishly.

"W-well...uhm. It's a surprise!"

She giggled.

"Oh, I love surprises~ Especially...big ones~"
