“Mice are definitely where I draw the line.” Brianna replied, laughing. “A deer or a cute little bird, fine. They’re welcome to empty a dishwasher whenever they want. But a mice? No way, no how.” And they were disgusting, as Mason already mentioned.
Brianna could say cheers to that, though she normally had a glass of wine - or two practically every night after her work was finished, though it rarely seemed like it ever was. She sat up a little straighter as he complimented her cooking, thankful that he wasn’t just flattering her. Bri took her own forkful and chewed carefully, her expression reflecting her surprise. “It looked questionable going in but it really settled out there and got all melted together. She gestured to her plate with her fork, holding a thumbs up. “You sure could’ve mentioned it yourself.” Bri snorted, shaking her head at him. “Fair enough. Okay, 50 questions it is. It’s like I’m back in high school already. You have any siblings?”

“ Alright, give me a second here to make sure I get this right...” Mason said, obviously teasing her now, “ So, deer and birds are okay, mice are definitely a no.” he stated, like he was trying to make a mental note of her preferences, he tapped his right temple, “ I think I got it now.” he said to her playfully.
Mason watched as she took a bite of food and chuckled when he saw the surprised look on her face, “ See, I told you it was good, didn’t I.” he said to her, he was glad that she was happy with the results, “ You had nothing to worry about.” he added, he continued to eat the meal sitting in front on him. He looked up at her, “ I’m sure you would’ve found out eventually.” he replied, “ If you want, I can cook something for you one night?” he offered, she had cooked for him after all, it was the least he could do for her. Mason laughed and nodded, “ Well, it is a good way to get to know each other, so why not?” he shrugged his shoulders. Mason cleared his throat and took a drink of his wine before he shook his head at her question, “ No, no siblings, I was an only child, I always wanted to have siblings though.” he answered, “ What about you? Do you have any brothers or sisters?” he asked in return.
