Owen’s face lit up with genuine amusement, a flash of white teeth, a glint in his grey eyes. He couldn’t stifle a near cackle of a laugh at Sairus’ full body jolt. “Alright there?” He asked and made as if to assist Sai in adjusting his tie. When the lynx was settled, Owen locked eyes with Holland and raised his eyebrows jerking his head towards the other blonde. A kind of ‘whaddya think gesture.’ Holland gave Owen a skeptical look, squinting one eye, and wobbled his hand in the air. A kind of ‘it’s iffy’ gesture. The tension had fallen away from the two best friends and apparently they’d taken to talking in their own code. The translation:
He one of us?
Not feeling it yet.
Whether Sai took anything away from this interaction seemed to be of no mind to neither Owen or Holland who, apparently, would re-bond at Sai’s expense if need be.
The boys settled down to hear what ‘Dite had to say about Julianna.
Owen’s mood dropped considerably. Noticeably. The amusement over Sai was easily forgotten.
He stared at Aphrodite darkly over the beer bottle as she named off the bar. He blinked slowly and put away several large gulps of beer. “Well then.” He let the beer bottle slide through his fingers back onto the table, clearly he was at a loss for words. Clearly not ready to hear about his wife, even in the sheltered way Aphrodite went about the subject. “So I suppose she still frequents this ‘One Night Stand’?” He said the name of the establishment with a hint of disgust. Though not a prude, Owen wasn’t keen on the idea of his wife attending bars named after casual sexual encounters, for obvious reasons.
Running his finger around the rim of the beer bottle, Owen shrugged at Aphrodite’s apology. “It’s Julianna.” As if that were synonymous with complications. “So, she’s - okay, then? Did she seem alright?” He asked the question tentatively, not sure he wanted the truth.
Depended what the truth was.
