“So, Fairbanks, what’s the plan?”

Dana leant over the table, mirroring Alice’s actions, “Not telling.”

Alice ran her foot further up Dana’s leg under the table, “Come on, tell.”

Dana looked away, “Nope, not telling.”

Alice’s foot moved further up the inside of Dana’s leg, “Pleeeease?”

Dana flinched slightly as Alice’s foot reached the inside of her knee, she fixed Alice with a resilient stare, “No.”

Alice leant back, crossing her arms and pouting, “Not fair.”

Dana smiled at Alice’s childishness, “If I tell you then it won’t be a surprise,” she slipped her shoe off under the table and began to trace it up Alice’s leg, “and I know how you love surprises.”

As Dana’s foot came to rest over her crotch, Alice tensed, then smiled, “You’re right,” Dana’s foot began to move causing her to bite her lip, “I do love surprises.”

The two lovers stared intensely at one another as Dana’s foot worked magic under the table. Alice bit her bottom lip harder, trying to control her need to cry out-

“Hey guys.”

Dana had never moved so quickly; in one swift movement her foot was back in her shoe, causing Alice to jump slightly in her chair. They both looked up, slightly flushed.

“Hi Jenny.”

They spoke in unison, looking at Jenny, then each other, then at their coffees, which had long since gone cold.

Jenny looked from Dana to Alice, frowning slightly. “Can I sit with you?” She looked around the room, “It’s so busy in here this morning.”

Alice looked up from her coffee, “Sure, please, sit down.” she looked over at Dana, who had just begun to turn from a flushed red back to her normal colour. Dana returned her glance, then looked up at Jenny, “Sure,” she shrugged, “Sit down.” She looked back at Alice who was biting her lip again, this time to stop herself from laughing. Dana turned away quickly, trying to avoid giggling, “So, Jenny, you here by yourself?”

Jenny sat down between the two of them, “No, Shane and Carmen are over there,” she looked back over her shoulder, Alice and Dana followed her gaze just in time to see Shane and Carmen walking over to the table.

“Morning.” Shane placed a tray of coffee and muffins down in the middle of the table then slouched down into a chair with an espresso.
