James was sitting in a corder with a couple of other guys. They were busily talking over their various drinks. It was clear that he did not notice her arrival at first, but when he did, his blue eyes just brightened. He stood up and waved her over to the group he was sitting with.
Jaime waved back and smiled. She left Phoebe playing in the dog-rest near the shop entrance and walked the table obstacle course to the place where her brother and his friends sat.
A youngish waiter, who obviously had a thing for Jaime, instantly appeared at her side. "Your usual?" he asked just a bit too eagerly.
"Sure," she replied. "Double it, though."
The waiter nodded and hustled off, totally disregarding a couple of gesturing customers on his way.
Jaime laughed and straddled the table's last empty stool. "Hey," she said. "You guys are meeting kinda early, aren't you?"
James smiled glad to see his sister. One of the other men seated at the table sneered. It was clear that he was not the most comfortable with James' little sister as a tag-along. His name was Richard. The third person already at the table seem unphased by her arrival. It was not so much that he was not happy to see Jaime, but Jacob was a little more interested in his pastry at the moment.
"We decided to try something new," replied Richard curtly. "It seemed prudent," he added a bit cryptically. It was clear to everyone that he was not only stuffy, but also in charge.
James just nodded in response. "We are still waiting for Sarah and Chase, though." (Jaime?)
