Rachel smiled as he touched his hand. Rachel was enamored by him now and feeling more than glad to see him. She leaned forward a little to turn the touch into held hands and if it allowed him a better view of her cleavage, than so be it.
”Same old stuff - different day,” she laughed, squeezing his hand and letting go slowly with reluctance. She took her glass and clinked it with his before taking a sip and then catching him up in things since the wedding. It wasn’t mostly professors handing her more large tomes to read for her thesis and the constant pressure to keep working on it. She could bore him with psychological theory, but decided not to. He wouldn’t find it interesting. ”Oh and I’m thinking about getting my own place. Just seems like a good time.”
It really was. Now that Emily and Jared were married, she felt like it was time for her to step out. Also she was old enough to get some independence from her sisters now. Em would probably resist at first but would give in with time.
The waitress arrived with their food and Rachel first took a bite of the seafood salad and then tried a bite of her steak. It was perfect. ”This is amazing! Thanks for the recommendation!” she gave him a smile. ”And I’ve monopolized the entire conversation. How rude of me! What’s new in the life of Cruz Vega.”
((Ooc: same - don’t need to go into detail and she also hasn’t noticed the little spies nearby :-D))
