Keeping her mask up while everyone was around Tessa just shook her head about needing anything from the store and just reached out a hand to stop Rex from getting up from the table when everyone except for Jim and Dani started clearing things away, the somewhat unexpected pairing heading for Jim's car. It was hard to read the undernotes of the group since she hadn't met them before and all she knew was what her husband had told her, mostly it was about how awesome they were and while she didn't doubt that Tessa wanted a little more.<br/><br/>Tessa's soft brown eyes followed the last figure inside and as soon as everyone was out of sight the woman groaned and sank back against Rex's chest with her eyes closed.<br/>"Oh lord, I'm so full right now... Just let me rest here for a little while..."<br/>While Tessa could eat almost unlimited amounts she usually didn't do it quite that fast and for now she felt worse than she thought she deserved but given that she knew it would be passing within minutes, perhaps it wasn't even remotely close to what she really had earned.<br/><br/>It was quite a while later, the patio was covered mostly in darkness with only the light from lamps within the house lighting up the area, when Tessa stepped inside, all dried up and wearing her sundress once again but seriously contemplating changing into something a bit more formal but instead she just sauntered up to where Grace and Terry were sharing a moment with a wine bottle. Again Tessa suspected that she had missed out on something but the lovely amount of wine in those glasses made her shake that idea.<br/>"Oh, pour me one of those, will you? I think I actually slipped into food coma for a bit outside."
