Hello, you've reached Ema Skye! Sorry, I can't come to the phone right now but leave a message and I'll get back to you as soon as I can! Have a nice day.
[Ema laughs. A lot. It's cute, and she's really having a good time. But eventually food runs out, checks are paid, and they're on their way home. Once they reach the apartment steps, she stops and looks up at Merlin, grinning and rocking on her heels.]
[ It is a good time, even with experimenting with different sauces (he may have asked for ketchup to try with it too, along with a variety of other things sorry Ema) and potentially driving their waiter up the wall.
He's definitely the type of person to ensure she gets back safe too, and is glad she's just as pleased after all this too. ]
Thank you for introducing it to me. And... for the bill. Next time I'll cover it, we can take turns? [ Is that how friend dates work.............. ]
Come here-- [ He's laughing when he pulls her into a hug to say goodbye. ] I'll try and keep in touch on the... thing. [ There's some kind of motion there for texting. He's trying, okay... ]

For next time, then. [ Once she's inside he heads off, feeling a lot more upbeat for the evening. ]
