"If you're trying to win me over with food, this is going to go really well for you. I promise," Eli says, as Michael places a scrumptious looking plate of spaghetti in front of him. He looks up at him with a smile. "Thank you. Everything's great." This is exactly what he hoped for tonight, and just a few minutes here, he's already forgotten most of the stresses of the week. He's looking forward instead to that dessert and, who knows, more since Michael is prepared to make breakfast. 

He picks up his fork swirling it through his pasta and takes a bite. "I like my eggs over easy," he offers with a smirk, as he swallows...and it's delicious.
