Cade laughed nervously. "This isn't a date. They are friends of a man I'm looking for." He said with a smile. He didn't mean he couldn't or wouldn't, just that it wasn't. He shrugged. "Hopefully there isn't anything on there you didn't save. If you turn it off now, it might not burn up. Let it dry out." That's what IT always told him when mishaps like this happened. Or at least that's what all the IT nerds told him when shit happened the day before finals.
"I'm Cade. This is Anna. Her friend is Elyse, she's in the restroom." He supposed that's where Elyse had disappeared off too. "Let me buy you another coffee and maybe you can find someone to take the laptop to get it looked at. I'm sure there is a directory somewhere."
He sat back down and offered Ness a seat at their table. "Anna was just offering to make contact with the man I'm looking for." He grinned at Anna. "I'd love it if you could arrange anything, at least give him my number." He took a pen from his briefcase and jotted down his wallet's number and pushed it across to Anna. "Don't tell him I'm claiming to be his brother, just say some guy is looking for you." He chuckled. "I know it's not any better, but it'll go with the assumption that I had been looking for him because he was my type, that was made at your club." He hadn't gotten the runaround at the club, they had told him straight he wasn't there and hadn't been for months. But unlike Anna, they didn't offer to make contact. Must be some sort of policy or something.
