Alex has been busy with a secret project the past couple of weeks, and she's just leaving an appointment when she gets Kate's text. She has the good luck of the diner being on her way home, but even if it hadn't been, she isn't going to ignore a text like that. A last minute invitation to dinner usually means something more, and when she finds Kate in the diner, Alex is quick to see what that more might be.

She crosses the diner quickly, her heels clicking quietly against the floor, and slides onto the booth bench opposite Kate. "Okay, spill," she invites, waving her hand in a gimme gesture. "Tell me everything. Let me see. You know, all that good kind of thing."
