Brooke had to bite her lower lip hard to keep from saying something to Mike herself, knowing full well he didn't have any card game traditions, although she had to admit that it sounded like fun.  Still, she couldn't help feeling a little angry and left out suddenly, with his attention so obviously focused on Kayla.  Brooke wasn't stupid, she could tell what Mike was playing at, and it irritated her that he could be moving so fast on the girl, especially considering what Dad had told everyone about taking things slowly.  She could just imagine the drama that would happen if Mike succeeded in his wish, and she just knew that the secret wouldn't have a chance of being kept for long, if everyone started vying for Kayla's attention.  She felt suddenly lonely, even sitting next to Alex, and she lowered her eyes, swallowing the sudden lump in her throat.  She'd always thought of herself as fairly pretty, although she wasn't stuck up about it.  Still, all the attention the boys were focusing on Kayla made her feel like she wasn't wanted just now, and suddenly she wasn't in such a festive mood.<br/><br/>She forced a smile as they pulled into the parking lot, lest Kayla notice, and flashed a smug grin back at the boys.  "That sounds like a fair plan to me, Dad," she said quickly, letting him know that at least one person agreed with him.  She moved into line behind Kayla as they went inside, although she wouldn't take a seat until she found out where Dad wanted to seat them all.<br/><br/>OOC:  Hope no one minds I put Brooke next to Alex, but that seemed to be the most logical place for him.  With Jacob and Ashley in the back and Mike and Kayla next, it would make sense to have Brooke and Alex in the next seat up, assuming there's only two people to a seat, that is.
