Owen disciplined himself to not look back at the bunny as they parted ways. He kept his eyes focused on his sister and her display.
"I'll take it," he said of the bracelet with similar expert discipline, Owen ignored Maeve's snappy comments. He particularly ignored the hint at his wife's taste in jewlrey.
"Close up. It's time to eat." He ordered as she boxed up the bracelet and put it in a bag with unnecessary tissue paper.
Carrying the bag with him, Owen took led Maeve through the convention hall and out into the hotel lobby. They walked past the indoor fountain and under the chandeliers to the restaurant on the other side of the hotel.
"Hart." He said to the pretty hostess who gave him a stunning smile. She seated Owen and Maeve at his usual table which he paid to keep open during the conference for any impromptu meetings or meals that popped up as he networked with others in the biz.
Owen politely pulled Maeve's chair out for her playing the gentlemanly brother. He used the opportunity to seat her so that his chair would face where he spotted that charming bunny was sitting in the restaurant. Once Maeve was settled,, he then sat himself having just the view he wanted.
They ordered drinks and an appetizer of calamari which was always very fresh at the restaurant. After ordering Owen excused himself from the table under the guise of using the restroom. He, in fact, stopped a waiter to have a cocktail and a dessert sent to Piper's table. The drink he picked was a risk. Something herbal made with gin. It was really more a digestivo but it was refreshing enough to drink with a meal.. The waiter was under strict instructions to inform Piper that the items were on the house.
Owen returned to the table, snapped his napkin out and set it over his lap. "So Maeve, what's new?" As they talked, he would keep a subtle eye on the rabbit and see how she liked the drink.
