Rebecca felt her heart thundering in her chest as she waited for the man in front of her to say something. Anything that could make that moment less awkward. After such a long silence, anything at all would be better than this. When Tom spoke, Rebecca smiled, grateful that the silence was at least broken. Hopefully, the man who looked way too much like Ash not to be him would say something now and end this torture.<br/><br/>When Ash finally talked, Rebecca relaxed. "Yeah... it has", she finally replied, relieved to see a familiar face. She didn't even know why she was so relieved to see him. But it was good anyway, and she was very happy to see an old friend, who could have been something else had they had more time.<br/><br/>Hearing Tom ask if she was an old flame made Rebecca blush as well, which was to say a lot for a pub waitress.<br/><br/>When Ash introduced her to Tom, she showed the man a friendly smile. "It's a pleasure, Tom". When the man told her how they had met, Rebecca's eyes went wide in shock. "Oh, my God", she murmured, looking at both men. "Thank goodness you're both safe", she stated sincerely, her heart shrinking a little when she thought about what could have happened.<br/><br/>"I know him well enough to know that it's pointless to argue", she joked when Tom told her not to listen to anything Ash said. "Thanks, I appreciate it", she said when the man told her to put 20 percent down as a tip.<br/><br/>When Ash finally ordered, she made a note and smiled when he told her they needed to get a coffee. "I get off at 3 in the morning, Ash", Rebecca replied with a grin. "But don't think I'm saying no to that cup of coffee. We can get it at my place. Deal?". While she waited for the answer, the girl turned to Tom. "What are you having, Moneybags?", she joked, clearly teasing Ash's coworker.
