Leon stared at the cake in wonder, what was this? It was a chocolate something-or-other with fluffy stuff on top. Doing his best not to show his surprise of the pastry place in front of him, he followed suit with the goldfish and took a bite of the cake. His amber-golden eyes expanded in shock as he looked from his fork to his plate, whoa! This was delicious! Never in his long life had he had chocolate presented to him like this. Wow humans… good job. 

He finished his cake almost as eagerly as his date did but never lost his composure at the table. What was that?! The people at the table comment about how delicious the [i]chocolate cake[/i] was and he could only assume that’s what it was. Man, that was unexpectedly delicious for a goldfish food. As everyone was making their own exit, Leon leaned back comfortably in his chair and watched the group of people leave and go towards the silent auction and mingle with individuals they knew. 

Then his date began to pull on his arm and he followed her without hesitation. At first, he questioned her intentions as she took him by the hand down a small hallway but it wasn’t until they came into a large room that he realized exactly where they were, despite going from a darker lit room into a bright florescent light garage. Blinking a few times he followed her to the poolside and gaze down upon the manatees. His eyes flicked from the creature at her hand to her, her bubbly happiness was sweet and he found himself tilting his head as he watched her. She was so gentle and so kind, yet he felt like if he touched her wrong he would hurt her; despite his desperate desire not to do so. Yet she was here, she wasn’t afraid, she wasn’t running away and she didn’t want him for his power. She wanted him for him.

Bracing her back, he snuffed down at her. “Goldfish look tiny and insignificant from the heavens. Do not compare your humble creatures to the mere goldfish I deal with on a regular basis. For these are far superior as they are under your care.” He said with a firm nod before reaching his hand up and snapping his fingers. “I desire another dance.” With that a soft music began to fill the air and the ceiling above them faded into a see-through appearance opening up the skies above them to allow in the stars. “May I have this dance?”
