Rule #2
Ria and Eli were dating. It was obvious the moment they stepped inside the Center, it was obvious. The air between them was different. Even if they didn't want to admit it. Of course, they broke Rule #2 soon after they broke Rule #1. Rule #2: Never date a coworker. It was classic Eli to tell her on a dinner "date" that he liked her and wanted to date her permanently. But Ria didn't tell him that.
Because in all seriousness, she knew he was going to tell her that.
