Ben is still trying to melt down into the seats. He only ducks his head out from behind the menu when he thinks it's safe, glaring at Klaus even though it's not like this is the worst thing he's ever done. Embarrassing Ben usually only happens without an audience, is all, so this is new.
"Shut up," he hisses at him. There are a few things he's very much not dealing with. One involves his powers, which he hasn't even attempted and is trying desperately to ignore. The other is that he's a thirty-two year old virgin through no fault of his own, only now it's super awkward and he doesn't know how to talk to girls.
"The last girl I tried to flirt with, she wound up telling me all about your tantric cult group love, it kind of ruined the mood," he says, crossing his arms petulantly as he thinks about his crush on Jill and how badly that went.
Diego showing up didn't even ruin it. Ben had done that all for himself.
