Everyone exchanged hellos and Fin nodded at the other couple. "We'd love to join you, that'd be great," Fin agreed. According to Tamara these were the best burgers. Liam suggested they order while he and Tamara find a seat and Fin smiled at him, "thanks mate, we'll see you guys in a moment." He took Jess's hand and led her toward the counter. "You order something for me, whatever you think is best," he suggested. He glanced back to see Liam waving from the booth they chose and he gave him a short nod to show that he'd seen him. "Those two... how long have they been dating?" he asked Jess.

Jess was delighted when Fin agreed to eat dinner with Tamara and Liam. She didn't know Liam so well, but she had known Tamara in school so she was excited to get to know them a little better. He didn't seem annoyed either, which was nice. Not that she thought Fin would be annoyed, but they'd never really gone out with anyone else before, so this was something new. She grinned at Fin when he thanked Liam before leading her over to the counter, telling her to order. She looked at the menu before ordering two different burgers and glancing over to Fin. "That sound good?" she teased, sure that he would get that. She shrugged at his question. "I think they started dating right before they graduated ... or right after. I'm not sure," she told him. Jess glanced back to the other couple. "I think ... we should go and join them now that we've ordered. It looks like they bring the food to us," she mentioned to Fin before making her way towards Tamara and Liam.

[googlefont="Open Sans Condensed:300"] I POUR MY HEART INTO YOUR HANDS [attr="class","next"] Tamara was always a friendly girl, and inviting the two to join them had been an instinct. She was worried for a second that Liam wouldn’t say anything, he was always a little awkward around other people. But as she turned to glance at him, to see if he was okay with them joining, he spoke up and offered to get them all a table while they ordered, she smiled quite proudly at that. Liam took her hand, and the two of them started around the place until he gestured towards a booth and questioned if she thought here was good, she nodded her head, “Yes—it’s perfect,” she said with a smile as she slipped inside first, knowing full well he liked the outside better. “I hope me inviting them was okay—I should have asked first,” she said as he sat down next to her and she watched him wave towards the other two, showing them where they sat. Not long after, the two started making their way towards them, and Tamara smiled, grabbing Liam’s hand and giving it a gentle squeeze, one that was meant to be a sign of her love and reassurance.

Liam smiled when Tamara agreed to the booth he chose and looked up until he saw Finley nodding that he saw where they were. Good. He sat down, feeling a little nervous, but pretty okay about this. It was good! He was branching out and talking to new people, even if that was only because Tamara was here. It wasn't that Liam didn't like talking to people, he often just couldn't figure out what to say, but he was going to make an effort now. For Tamara, but also for him. He smiled over at his girlfriend, "Of course it's okay. I want to get to know your friends. You don't have to ask permission." He looked up to see Finley and Jess headed their way and glanced back to Tamara. "You've got to help start the conversation," Liam told her seriously. If a conversation was going, he could probably join it, but if he had to start one ... he knew it would be hard going.

Once they ordered, Jess answered his question and suggested they head over to the table. He just nodded, contemplating. He remembered how close those two were to Ethan, who Elaine had killed. Fin wasn't sure what to do about that. Well, obviously nothing, but emotionally it was hard to picture a world where he was just sitting, eating burgers with people who had been so hurt by his closest friend.
Then again, he dealt with that every day.
They arrived at the table and he moved aside, gesturing for Jess to slide in first, "you first?' he suggested. He turned to the other two, "I hope we're not interrupting a special occasion."

Fin seemed a little quieter than normal. Jess wasn't sure if there was a particular reason for that or not. She hoped he wasn't annoyed at her and Tamara wanting them to all eat together, but he'd seemed happy to do it at first. She smiled up at him, nodding to answer his question before she slid into the booth. Once he was seated beside her, she took his hand and squeezed it.
He was already talking to Tamara and Liam, saying he hoped they weren't interrupting anything important. She made a face, "Yeah ... but if you guys spend your special occasions at a burger place, I might feel the need to intervene," Jess teased, laughing softly. Of course, she wouldn't dare to mess with Tamara and her boyfriend and how they spent their time, she was just jumping into the conversation.

You’ve got to help start the conversation,’ she nodded with a smile and grabbed his hand to give it a quick squeeze, pulling back just as the two lovebirds arrived at the table. Finley was the first to speak, offering the first moment to sit down to Jess before turning to Liam and Tamara, she shook her head. “Oh no—you aren’t interrupting anything. Just some after work fuel,” she said with a smile, laughing at what Jess said next. “I don’t doubt that Jess,” she said with a smile at her friend, she knew her friend, oh too well. “So, what were you two up to before you ran into us?” she questioned curiously as she looked between the two. She hoped that she wasn’t intervening in whatever they were doing by inviting them to join.

Liam liked being with Tamara, and he didn't necessarily mind people either, but he honestly never knew what to say in social situations. He always felt like he said the wrong thing, or like he didn't know what to say. It was just confusing. Much easier to talk to people one-on-one, which was why he'd asked his girlfriend to start the conversation. Liam wasn't entirely sure how to join in though. He shook his head when Finley mentioned hoping that he wasn't interrupting anything, but Tamara answered before Liam could say anything, which he was fine with. He chuckled at Jess' teasing and his girlfriend's response, feeling the awkwardness come on. He looked down to his hands for a second, taking a deep breath and trying to think of something to say, but then Tamara was asking a question of the other pair and he looked up with interest. Maybe he'd be able to respond to their answer or something. Man, he was such a loser.

Tamara said they were just there for some after work fuel, and Fin couldn't help but chuckle very quietly about Jess's comment to intervene. Tamara asked what they'd been up to and he shrugged, "the same. Mostly just working, trying to find somewhere to eat," he explained. Generally he'd let Jess do the talking, so he turned away from Tamara and looked to Liam. He nodded at the guy, but wasn't entirely sure what to say to him. He didn't know Liam that well, but the guy had always kept to himself. Though, they both did work at the Ministry so he had seen him around, even if they'd never spoken. "I hope work is well?" he asked Liam in a bit of a hushed tone, in case the girls wanted to continue their own conversation.

Jess laughed when Tamara believed her comment about intervening if needed, appreciating that her friend could take it as a joke. Some people were too easily offended, but it was a good thing that Tamara wasn't. She nodded when Fin answered Tamara's question, smiling up at him for a second. Merlin, she loved being with him. No matter where they were, he always had a way of making her feel calm and happy. She loved it. She noticed Fin turn a little toward Liam, so she decided to just talk with Tamara a bit. "So how's work going with you?" Jess asked with interest, not even hearing Fin ask a similar question to Liam. "We haven't talked for a while."
