With that last shout Blake saw, from underneath the tomato, Aria's gaze snapped down to him! Blake's eyes widened, and he beamed at his success!

"Haha, yes! Aria, down here! Under the tomato." Blake would shout out again. Blake would see Aria have a confused expression on her face as she reached for the tomato. He was so happy he was finally seen by his crush.

"How did this happen?" Aria would say softly. Blake chuckled.

"It's kind of a silly story, I ... kind of made a deal with spirits to try to ... win your heart" Blake would blush and smile up at Aria. "And I-

"Oh well, it should still be fine." Wait... what? 

Aria grabbed the tomato slice, her finger sliding effortlessly under it and pinching Blake's arm to the tomato. Aria hoisted the tomato quickly into the air and brought it right in front of her face. Blake groaned as his arm ached. He felt just how powerful Aria's hand was compared to him. Due to how the tomato fell on top of him, Blake was entirely covered by the core of the slice but was still able to see from behind the slick membrane. And what he saw made his blood run cold. Aria tilted her head back and opened her mouth, ready to accept the missing slice. Blake tried to move his body. He kicked his legs to try and pull his arm free from Aria's pinch but it was in vain as both he and the tomato were lowered into Aria's awaiting mouth.

The slice slid against Aria's wet tongue, the flavor caused her cheeks to pull back into a smile. Then, Aria's teeth came down and bit the lower half of the slice in twain, just narrowly missing Blake's foot. Blake squeaked in surprise and tried to pull his legs away. Aria lifted the slice back up as she chewed her bite quickly. Over and over her jaw rolled. Aria's head bobbed slightly as she swallowed the mouthful. Her lips smacked open, once again revealing her maw which was now slightly stained with bits of chewed tomato and scant traces of the burger prior. The warm acrid air blew from the back of her mouth as Blake was once again lowered into his crush's mouth.

No no NO! This can't be happening, Blake thought to himself. He still had to get her attention, but the fear of the situation that had befallen him had scared him so! He and the slice re-entered the carnivorous cavern. As more of the slice entered Aria's mouth, Blake's legs finally made contact with the slick muscle. It set to work, scooping him and the rest of the tomato deeper into her mouth. As Aria felt everything was in place she let go, freeing the slice and Blake. As the fingers left Blake, he turned over on the slick muscle, once again pinned under the fruit. He saw the corners of Aria's mouth close in as her mouth shut. 

In the humid and wet darkness, Blake felt something sticky splash upon his face. He coughed and sputtered as the liquid got into his mouth. His face flushed deeply as he realized it was Aria's spit! The mouth he was in had begun salivating, and already the membrane of the tomato began to dissolve and break down from the slightly sticky substance. Blake tried to push himself forward towards Aria's lips, when Aria's tongue dived down, then tossed Blake and the tomato to the left. Straight towards her teeth! Blake could see it all happening as if it was in slow motion. 

Thinking quickly Blake tucked himself tight and felt himself hit Aria's lower teeth and then rolled under her tongue as she began to chew the rest of the slice. Loud clacks and booms would ring out in his ears as he got coated in spit and masticated tomato. Blake whined and tried to stay still as the mouth of his crush moved around him.

Aria had picked up and then started to eat a slice of tomato that had somehow slid out of her burger. The ones made here always were put together pretty sloppily. As she ate she detected a small piece that had slid under her tongue. It wasn't too big and was probably just the core of the tomato so Aria thought nothing of it. Aria would scoop it out from under her tongue and with the rest of her bite, go to swallow it.

Blake thought he was safe until he felt the giant muscle on top of him move over then nudge him out from his hiding spot. Aria had rolled him out and into the center of her tongue with the rest of her bite. It didn't take years of studying the magic sciences to realize what was about to happen next. Covered in sticky tomato bits Blake tried to crawl forward to avoid his fate. Aria's head and tongue lifted, Blake and the food sliding towards the back of her mouth. Blake looked behind him and saw Aria's uvula hanging over the entrance to her digestive system. The deep inky blackness of her throat pulsed, ready to accept him. Blake whimpered and continued to try and crawl over the center of her tongue, still fighting...
