"I just want pizza." Gage laughs and reaches across the table to take Sapphire's hands in his. "I don't care. Wait... no, I do. No olives." He grins. That was one thing he'd found he did not care for. "Otherwise, it's your pick."
Retreating to lean back in his seat, his eyes roam the inside of the restaurant, lingering a moment on the kitchen door. He was trying hard to get on with his life without baggage of the Agency, but sometimes he just couldn't shake it. How did someone like Carson manage to get out and get this far? Why was Gage struggling so?
"Anytime." Eli ruffles Ryan's hair again. "You can stay here for all I care. I'm comfortable. But you know since I'm sitting up that I'll snore, then you won't get any sleep at all."
He chuckles, sliding his feet off the coffee table. He knew well enough that she was probably missing Alec, whether she was sticking to her guns or not. And he felt badly. But there wasn't a whole lot more he could do.
Finally dropping his gaze, Pete picks up his fork and tries a bite of the cheesecake. "Mmm." He closes his eyes, savoring the taste. "Yep... it turned out alright. No wait." He glances to the rest of the cake, then Carol and Nikki. "It's horrible. You'll hate it. You might as well just give it to me so I can take it and eat it all myself."
