"Nothing"

I say and blush, picking up my silverware and cutting myself a piece of fish, looking back at her as I am chewing it, noticing that she is still looking at me. Then she smiles a mysterious little smile, shaking her head in a small motion, saying:

"Nothing."

She picks up her silverware, cuts a bit of fish, puts it in her mouth and chews it while looking at me with the same small smile, and we just sit there, eating in silence while looking at each other.

We finish our food, then Millie takes the plates into the kitchen and after about a minute returns with berries and ice cream for us both. It's absolutely delicious, so we eat together, again in silence, but in good silence, I don't feel awkward, and hopefully she does not either.

We finish desert and then Millie again takes the plates out to the kitchen, then walks past me saying:

"Let's watch a movie?"

I nod in reply, then she walks down the hall saying over her shoulder:

"You take your pick, let me just change into something more comfortable."

I go into the living room, turn on the TV, then look through Netflix for anything nice for us to watch, settling on a romantic comedy. As I finish getting this set-up, I hear Millie returning and look up. She has changed into a very short silk kimono and she looks amazing. She notices my reaction and asks:

"What?"
