The waitress finally appeared but she did nothing to ease the tension Julianna felt. It was self-inflicted, she was leaning to hard away from trying to have a pleasant interaction with Owen. Silver ears dropped to the side of her head as she watched Owen talk to the server. She was convinced that this man could not be the grumpy general she had come to know. Was he smiling? Flirting? She was having a difficult time adjusting to this new attitude.
She ordered an egg white omelet without thinking about it because she realized she had never actually looked at the menu. "Do you come here often," she heard herself asking. He was right in front of her but she couldn't picture him frequenting the chic cafe.
Renton stopped touching her and she knew it was because they were talking about him. She glanced at him. The bottom half of his face was hidden by the coffee mug, but she could tell he was perturbed. Her eyes didn't linger because she didn't want to be obvious about the surreptitious game they had been playing under the table. If not for Owen, she would have reached across the table for his hand, but she hesitated in the general's company, even though she was sure he had been making comments about their personal relationship earlier.
"Oh absolutely not." Her ears popped to attention. "I would make a terrible field agent." She laughed, it sounded nervous. Her tail fell out of her lap barely brushing Owen's leg as it dropped towards the ground to sway idly. "I don't think I could handle the pressure. I am much better in an office."
She smiled at Renton because for a moment he looked pouting. She wanted him to know that she wasn't going to leave him.
"I have an older brother in the military," she offered as an explanation for her surprise punch. "He wanted me to know how to defend myself and so on. I humored him, mostly. I've never really imagined myself getting into any kind of danger, but it's useful I guess." She grinned at Owen, since the punch had been so effective for shutting him up.
Her gaze once again bounced to Renton. "Maybe next time you can throw Renton around a little bit," she said, teasing them both.

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
