When Tony struggled, Claire didn't hop up and run to his side, but she was concerned. What the hell was wrong with him anyway? She doubted he'd explain, assuming he even knew. So she didn't bother asking.
"Fine, fine. Let the little woman get it. I see how you are."
She dragged herself to the door and dealt with the take out guy. Her stomach rumbled when the scent hit her; it smelled like the perfect kind of gourmet, grease slathered, carbohydrate laden, alcohol absorbing sack of food you can only find at all-night diner joints.
She slammed the door with a kick of her foot, after giving the kid a hefty tip. Since Tony was paying after all.
"You sit tight, grandpa. I'll bring your food over. So get your teeth put in."
She poured their orders into a couple of bowls, and since she couldn't find chopsticks, opted for regular cutlery to pair. She had a pair of drinks and two bowls to carry, and the urge to make one trip.
Lips twisted, she gripped the crystal shard dangling against her chest and silently chanted the levitation spell. It was one of the first spells June taught her and was always the easiest.
Words continually whispering in her mind, she carried the glasses by hand while the two bowls followed alongside her shoulder. A victorious grin detangled her lips when she plucked them from mid air and placed Tony's before him.
Settled in, legs crossed, she slurped down the first noodle and asked another nosy question between bites. "Did you have a wife or kids? Anything like that?"
