Tess was pondering a bevvy of drink options when she realized that the cake was lined with strawberries on the inside. That could certainly be paired with champagne. She finished chewing on the small bite of cake in her mouth, appreciating the fresh fruit inside, as she regarded Luke in time to see him raise his hand at a waitress.<br/><br/>She chuckled at his comment and waved a fork in the air, above her cake slice. “I think champagne would work just fine.” Soon enough, the waitress who Luke flagged down popped into view and asked what she could get them. He ordered something and she asked for a glass of champagne. Before the waitress could walk off, Luke asked her to make that a bottle.<br/><br/>“Oh, wow, that’s so generous of you.” She observed aloud, smiling at him appreciatively. She shook her head at his concerns about being too presumptuous. “It is very nice.” She assured him. “And on my big day!” Tess glanced down at her sash and laughed softly. “Well,” she said after another moment, “if I can’t convince you to eat a piece of cake with me, can I talk you into taking a seat?”<br/><br/>She referenced the comfortable looking seats and lowered herself onto one, folding one leg over the other, her long dress concealing far too much. Astrid led Annie to the bathroom, practically steering her there the whole way. What was going on in the ladies room would remain a mystery to all onlookers, though. Tess hadn’t even noticed her friends heading for the restrooms. Not that she wanted to break away from Luke so soon, even if she had.
