Owen very much wanted her to come sit with him. It was difficult for him to focus on his work. He needed the matter of their date settled first. Thoughts of her rattled around in his mind interfering with his ability to get into the state of deep thought he needed for tasks at hand.
He wasn’t much use for anything except copying over a draft of a piece he was working on to clean bar paper. He worked painstakingly in fine pencil drawing small music notes into the spaces on the paper, while he waited for her to grace him with her company.
And she came to him.
He found that very pleasing and quickly shed his headphones, letting them rest around his neck as she pulled up a chair. He blew at the dusting of graphite, resisting the urge to wipe at it with his hand. That would only smear it.
Owen moved his computer aside and playfully mirrored her pose. “Good. You should.” He joked before he reached across the table and lifted her chin with his index finger encouraging her to look at him and not shy away. He didn’t know of any reasons she would need to shy away from him. He thought she was just a timid girl. Maybe unused to attention. He liked that about her. The way she'd look downwards and her long eye lashes seemed to lay along the apple of her cheek.
“I live near to this kind of underground club. It’s a bit of a dive. But, there’s a good crew playing tonight.” He explained taking away his finger to fold his hands on the table. “You should come check it out with me. Let me buy you a glass of wine.”
Needless to say, Eden’s mouth was hanging open in abject shock. She couldn’t hear what the pair was discussing but she didn’t need to. That touch. She nudged Maeve in the ribs and jerked her head at the pair as if to ask : ARE YOU SEEING THIS?!
