Shane steps into the shop, slipping off her brown and beige cabbie's cap and stuffing it into the pocket of her burgundy velvet blazer before shrugging it off and hanging it up. Underneath, she wears a faded black t-shirt with a white long-sleeve underneath it, the letters T - R - O - Y spelled out along one sleeve in old english-style script, a pair of blue jeans and her sneakers.

"Hey, Deb," she says. "How's it going?"

Draco walks into the restaurant and points over to a table in the corner. He looks over at Lily.

"This ok for you?" he says

Alanna blinked at the last item on the board and decided not to risk it. "I'll have the Beef and the beef. And coffee."

"Perfect."

"You got it," Shane murmurs with a smile as she fills out a ticket for Alanna and puts in her order. Once that's done, she fills her a styrofoam take-out cup with coffee and lids it, placing it on the counter for her while she figures out her ticket. "That'll be $12.90, Alanna," she says, barely catching the cash drawer with her thumb as it pops out of the register.

"Thanks." Alanna hands over the appropriate money. "Still didn't get it fixed?" She asks sympathetically.

Draco goes over to the table and like the little pureblood gentleman he is, he pulls out Lily's chair for her.

"I like corner tables. Gives us more privacy." he says

[shane-mcc.livejournal.com]

"No," Shane says with a faintly strained smile as she takes the money. "Mechanical stuff really isn't my thing. The cashier guy can do it... sorta, I guess, and he told me he fixed it, but... looks like it changed its mind." She places the money in the drawer and closes it, eyeing it warily for a moment.

Deb looks very tired but quite happy. "Perfect." She beams. "Just perfect. How about you, baby?"

[http://users.livejournal.com/___lily_evans_/]

"Why thank you, good sir," Lily says playfully, smiling at Draco. She sits and begins looking at the menu. "I haven't been here in a while, but this place is just as quaint as ever."

Shane approaches the table, pad and pen in hand. "Hi," she says, offering them both a welcoming smile. "I'm Shane and I'm your waitress tonight, so... what can I get you two?"

[shane-mcc.livejournal.com]

"I'm doing good," Shane says, smiling. After a moment, she gives Deb a concerned look. "Are you sure you're doing all right?"

[pure-blooddraco.livejournal.com]

"Um...I'll take the salad and coffee." He looks over to Lily and says "I swear I didn't even know what coffee tasted like before I came here. Now I'm a bloody addict."

[pure-blooddraco.livejournal.com]

"This is my first time. It's...cute." he laughs for a second "Sorry, I think that might have been the first time I have ever said the word cute outloud."

[http://users.livejournal.com/___lily_evans_/]

"I'll have the salad also, please. And lemonade, if you have it."

To Draco, Lily says, "Thankfully I've managed to avoid it thus far, with the hope of continuing to do so." She smiles, thinking he looked very cute saying 'bloody addict' like that.

[http://users.livejournal.com/___lily_evans_/]

Lily laughs with him. "No, it doesn't quite suit you, with your noble and elegant air," she says.

Nodding, Shane writes down the blond guy's order, smiling. It seems like practically everyone she's met has been a total coffee fiend. Glancing over at Lily, she remembers her from her very first day at work, when she'd met Geoff.

Geoff, I miss you... come back soon, man...

"Sure. We can do that. Hey, how's it going?" She says to Lily, smiling as she glances up in the middle of writing down her order. "Haven't seen you in here in a while." She finishes up writing their order. "All right, guys, I'll go get your drinks and put this in and it should be out in a few minutes."

[pure-blooddraco.livejournal.com]

"Yes, you should stay away from it. Dangerous thing, coffee. You think it's a good idea at first and then once you get in you can't stop." Draco wasn't too sure if he was talking about coffee anymore.

[http://users.livejournal.com/___lily_evans_/]

Lily is surprised that Shane remembers her. "Everything's going well - school gets busy quickly." She smiles.

[shane-mcc.livejournal.com]

"Good to hear. I'll be right there with you soon enough, I guess," Shane says with a grin. She holds up her order pad as she heads to the counter. "I'll be right back with your drinks, guys."

[http://users.livejournal.com/___lily_evans_/]

"There's that uneasy feeling again," Lily thinks, trying to decide whether to push or change course.

"A lot of things seem that way," she says, looking at him very seriously. Deciding to back off, she changes the subject. "Oh! I'm sorry about the election results, by the way. You ran a good campaign."

[pflag-mom-deb.livejournal.com]

Deb's smile gets bigger. She says softly, "I'm fine." The wink that follows this is filthy. Carl is even looking pretty cheerful tonight, glancing from his coffee to watch the patrons, and stealing sidelong looks at his lady.

[shane-mcc.livejournal.com]

The concerned look is soon replaced by a broad, knowing grin. "You guys..." she murmurs, shaking her head as she lets out a chuckle. "Well, good for you."

[pure-blooddraco.livejournal.com]

"Thanks. I'm really not too upset about it. I know Phoebe could probably do a better job so I'm glad she won. And she's a witch so that's a plus. To tell you the truth, I was kind of worried about Angel's reaction. He's a nice guy but I'd hate to see his temper. But he's taking it well too."

[http://users.livejournal.com/___lily_evans_/]

"Yes, he was in a fine mood yesterday. I'd call it 'chipper' but he doesn't really seem like the kind of guy to whom that term would normally apply." Lily pauses. "He was worried about you, though. Well, we both were. I'm glad you're happy with the results." She winks at Draco. "Besides, now you'll have more time for... relaxing."
