"You're my kind of girl," Jake grinned as he followed her inside. "Do you want a snack too? They have..." He looked at today's selection. "Cakes and buns and stuff."
"The spy teacher?" Jake asked, a little confused. "Yeah, those are chocolate chip and caramell and... Well, you can see for yourself," he finished vaguely, and turned to the barista. "A weetiny latte and a hazelnut mocha, please."
"Aly's my friend 'cause we shared cookies," Aiden said with a solemn nod. Cookies are a life bond. "Chocolate," she said pointing through the glass. "...please?"
Jake nodded. He imagined that it was probably akin to sharing coffee for weetiny girls. "Since you asked nicely, yes." He turned to the barista. "A chocolate chip cookie and chocolate croissant as well, thanks."
It only took a moment before Jake was attempting to balance two plates and two cups of coffee. "Where do you want to sit?"
Jake was just happy it was close by. He walked over, put the food and drinks down and then sat down himself to divide everything. He pushed the cookie and the latte towards Aiden. "Those are yours. The latte has lots of milk and-- Oh!" He jumped up, went back to the counter and came back with several packets of sugar. "And sugar!"
"You're welcome." Jake unfortunately knew nothing about the effects of sugar and caffeine on little people so he smiled to her and sipped his mocha. "Have you been a detective for long?"
"You're totally set then," Jake grinned. He sipped his mocha. "If I even need a detective, I'm definitely coming to you. I can tell you'd be able to find anything."
"Anything," Aiden agreed. She lowered her voice. "Chad said I should investigate Parker," she said. "I don' think she's done anything naughty that I need t' investigate."
Jake choked on his coffee. After coughing a little, he shook his head. "No, no, definitely not. I don't think you should investigate Parker at all! You could investigate... Rory! I bet she has lots of secrets." And was less likely to kill either Aiden or Chad.
