“Yeah. She warned me about all that when we first started living together, but I still panicked when I saw the blood for the first time.”

"Yeah. I mean, it's scary."

“I guess so. I mean, I'm not squeamish but I do worry that Jade might be having an aneurism…” she sighed. “I’m sorry. I’m bringing the mood down.”

"it's fine. If she was feeling really bad she'd tell someone, I'm sure."

Sophie shrugged a little. “I hope so. As I'm sure you noticed, there are things she just won't talk about.”

"I did notice that, yes." She said with a smile.

“Yeah. It's like pulling teeth.” she said only half joking.

She laughed. "Yikes."

Sophie laughed and nodded a little as the waiter approached their table.

She looked up as the waiter came over, still smiling.

“Two gyros and two salads.” he smiled as he placed the meals in front of the girls.

“Thank you.” Sophie smiled politely back.

"Thank you." Raven echoed, giginv the waiter another polite smile before turning to her food.

“Enjoy your meal.” The waiter nodded before leaving the pair in peace.

Sophie smiled and turned back to Raven and their dinners.

Raven gave Sophie a soft smile. "Well, ready to eat?"

“Of course. I had a busy day at work today so I'm actually pretty hungry.” she nodded, unrolling her silverware.

"Mm, me too. Though not because I was busy."

Sophie giggled a little and nodded before taking a bite of the salad first.

She took a bite of her gyro, careful not to spill the messy thing all over.

Sophie smiled a little at the sight, knowing how hard it was to eat those. “So, where did you get your degree in architecture?”

She blinked, in the middle of chewing. She took a moment to finish, swallowed, then said, "I uh, I went to Oregon State." She replied.

“Sorry.” she apologized for the interruption, giving her time to answer. “Oregon? I bet that was nice. What's it like there?” she asked, more interested in learning more about her “date”.

"Oh, Oregon is great." She agreed. "The mountains and the beaches are great. The University itself is pretty big, but it wasn't bad. I really enjoyed it."

“That sounds beautiful.” she smiled. “I’ve never been there before… but I've been to Florida before. The university you went to sounds nice though.”

"Florida and Oregon are a little bit different." she replied, laughing. "It was great, yeah. What about you? I can't remember if you said whether or not you went to college?"

“Yeah, I know. There's no mountains in Florida.” she chuckled. “I… didn't say before but I did go to college. Nothing special though. It was just the local community college and I just got my gen ed degree.” she admitted. “They didn't really have much in the way of water classes there and I didn't have enough money at the time to go out of state.”
