Owen returned to the table carrying in either hand a flight of wine to taste. Little cups rested in holes cut out of what was essentially a paddle. He held them up high over the crow so as to not run into anyone with them. Between his lips and teeth he gripped a bowl filled with pistachios.
He set each flight of wine down on the table before relieving his mouth of the bowl and slid in next to her.
He kept sliding, pushing her over and over around the rounded booth until they both had a good place to see the band and crowd. He put his arm around her shoulders and leaned close. He tucked unruly curls behind the ear closest to him. “I’m glad you came out with me.” He said against her ear with a smile on his lips.
When he was close like that he could smell lingering the scent of coffee and baked goods in her hair. He leaned a little bit away to point at what he’d brought for them.
“That one is dessert wines. That one isssss…” he trailed off frowning as he tried to remember what he purchased, “uhm, well that one is, I guess, we will find out. Maybe it's red blends?”
He shrugged and picked up a pistachio and cracked it out of the thin white shell. He tossed the shells to the floor and popped tossed the green nut into his mouth. It joined a host of nut shells under the table. Apparently it was the custom there.
He chose a wine taster at seemingly random from the mystery flight. The dark red liquid sloshed inside as he presented it to her for a toast.
