LUCY NIELSEN
It was fortunate that she had found a way to work through the panic, because as soon as they arrived outside of the restaurant, her appetite had returned in full. The restaurant was stunning - new and fresh and bright - the first of its kind that she stepped into. She was accustomed to eating out, but never a place that carried with it so much reputation. She was glad, at the very least that she had dressed nice that morning.
Following Killian inside, she looked around, taking in the luxurious decor and charming appeal of the place. The hostess greeted them, before Killian even spoke, and she nodded when he looked to her for approval. Normally, she wasn't one to drink during the day - another rule - but after visiting the apartment and all the nerves bundled up, and reminding herself that sometimes change meant letting go a little, she decided it was worth bending.
At the bar, she sank onto a stool, and glancing to Killian, smiled faintly, "This is nice... Fanciest place I've ever been for lunch. Generally it's a Caesar from Salad Works... Or an extra cup of coffee." It was probably par for course with Killian, though. He didn't generally eat lunch at the house, and she couldn't see him slumming it through a drive thru often... unless absolutely desperate. Even then, it was an image she had a hard time bringing to mind's eye.
When the tender arrived, she ordered a glass of chardonnay. It wasn't whiskey... but after the night before, recalling her mortifying dart display, she wasn't quite ready for the hard stuff, again, "I meant to ask earlier... before... you know. Where is Maria going tomorrow?"
