Blake was lucky Aria was busy with the fries for now so he continued pulling. The plan was pretty simple, get the tomato out of the burger and stay on top of it, once she noticed the tomato was outside she would spot him. After that there was no plan, but Blake trusted in Aria's kind nature that nothing bad would happen. Maybe she would make the obvious question and after telling her how he didn't know what to do Aria would invite him to his place where they could bond, learn more from each other and start a relationship, hopefully.

 

While he kept pulling Blake thought for an instant about the spirit's advice of just talking with her because she was there by herself, alone and seemingly available to chat with anyone who approached, but he shook his head and focused again on the plan, what was done was done.

 

However, what he didn't expect was Aria grabbing the burger in such a way that it made his job a lot easier, the rest of the tomato just slid from the burger and fell on top of him as Aria raised the meal towards her mouth.

 

"Wha, no!" The action took Blake by surprise and because he couldn't compete with Aria's strength, the tomato was raised a bit before sliding back to the tray, falling on top of him and covering him with a mix of juices from the tomato itself and the adjacent ingredients in the burger. He knew the thing tasted delicious but from so close it felt quite disgusting. The worst part was that the way he fell he didn't have any leverage to grab and move the tomato away from him, and because he was being crushed by it he wasn't in a position to make any helpful spell either.

 

"Come on Aria" Blake said to himself waiting for the second step of his plan to materialize, Aria noticing the tomato and eventually noticing him, but it wasn't happening. All he could feel around was the tray moving slightly as Aria kept taking bites of the burger, but for some reason she didn't notice or didn't care about the ingredient that was putting him in so much trouble

 

"Dammit, ARIA!!" he tried to shoud and kept struggling without success when a dark thought crossed his mind. What if she just doesn't eat it and throws the tomato to the trash? It was all the motivation Blake needed to keep trying to find a way to get out of there.

 

What happens next?
