Ezekiel leaned back against seat at the cafe his eyes drifting down to his watch for the second time in 10 minutes. He’d been looking forward to this get together, a chance to get out for the day and relax. It was fire season, so he was constantly on call in case of forest fires and this was just a chance to see someone other than his crew. As if on cue his phone chimed, the nail in the coffin. Sorry can’t make it. Raincheck. Cursing softly, he motions to someone hear by holding up a coffee cup.

“Hey want a free cup of coffee? I haven’t touched it, I just preemptively got it for a coffee date who bailed on me”

Laurel feigned a gasp in flattery, holding a hand over her heart. “You’re asking moi? Don’t mind if I do. Can’t have enough coffee,” she said gesturing the latte in her own hands before taking a seat across from Zeke. “Damn--what’d you do to be stood up this time, Z? Gave them a preview of the goods before they paid for the show?” Laurel teased, clicking her tongue against the roof of her mouth before taking a sip of the free beverage, neglecting the one she had already purchased. Free things had a better taste on her tongue.
