I'd imagine that it's also what Ed would prefer... [He muses aloud, aware of how warm he's feeling, prickling with sweat under his waistcoat.] So I guess that settles it!
[Easing his hand free when the waiter comes by, he catches Ed's eye before declining dessert and requesting the bill. There is such thing as too much of a good thing and he doesn't want to stuff himself silly when there's so much evening left, so much potential. Leaving a generous tip, he steps away from clinking glasses and hushed conversations and out into the night. Their ride is just around the corner but he's in no particular hurry to get there, hooking his little finger around Ed's while they head down the sidewalk.]
A lovely night, isn't it? [He says cheerily, breathless and buzzing with giddy-anxious energy. The air is bracing and everything feels alive - different, somehow.] ...Drink it all in, 'cause someday soon, all this you see around you will be ours... more or less.
Hope this works
