"Milo, why don't you help me move this table over," he smiled at the hostess
who nodded at him.  Then, helped Milo carry the table over, moving his chair
so he was sitting beside Julia on the now longer side of the table.  Sam
took the chair on the end to his right and Milo and Marissa had room by
Ingrid.

Derek did sigh inwardly at the seating arrangement.

He wasn't the only one.  Julia mentally groaned and, under the table, she
debated digging her fingers into her leg as the waitress came by to take
their orders.

Ingrid looked at the two and gave her brother a look.  To the others it was
casual but to him it was 'well you did offer'.  Then she moved her gaze to
Julia before giving her own order and looking at the new arrivals.

"So," she said, folding her hands into her habit and looking at the one that
had almost jumped into the chair next to Derek "Sam is it? What do you do
for a living?"

Julia missed Ingrid's look and mouthed 'vegtible' to Kat.  If she didn't
hear the girl order one she'd order it for her.

Then she did sigh, a small sound she hoped didn't carry over but was ready
to lie to cover for if it did.  The waitress gathered their menus after the
orders were placed and promised to return with their drinks.
