Isabel slowly walked up, sniffing appreciatively at the smell of barbaque. "Smells yummy," she said.

He glanced up from the grill. "Isabel. Want something to eat?" Because that was easier than saying goodbye, again. He really wasn't used to leaving.

"If you've got some extra, sure," she smiled. "It'll be a change. Usually I'm the one that's cooking."

"For you? Always," he studied her, "I have no idea what you want. Drinks are easy by now, but meat?" He shrugged.

"I'd be perfectly content with a burger," Isabel told him. "One that still moos a bit when you bite it. No charred hockey pucks for me."

"One slightly singed hamburger coming up," he grinned, then showed off by twirling the spatula.

More grinning. "Guilty as charged."

Isabel snickered. "Is there anything I can do to help?" Because it was much easier to pretend that this was just a normal dinner with friends then yet another good-bye.

"If you wanted to get a couple of glasses of lemonade and some plates with buns from the kitchen," Jarod suggested, just as happy to pretend about this as Isabel.

"I think I can handle that," she smiled, heading off to do just that. Returning a few minutes later, she set everything out on the totally modded OMG don't turn me in to the admins please table. "This is food service I can handle. In our workshop the other day? I had to pretend I worked in a sandwich shop. I wound up spraying mayo on one of the guys."

"On purpose or by accident?" Jarod asked, smirking slightly.

"Oh totally on purpose," Isabel said proudly. "It was my workshop called Dealing with Stupid People. Johnny tried his hardest to be a real pain in the ass. Eventually I had to just squirt him with mayo. Then I told him that while I was a food service worker, I could move on to bigger and better things. He'd always be an ass."

"Well said," Jarod said, laughing as he checked the burgers, "Yours is about done. Where's your plate?"

"Right here," she replied, bringing it over to the grill. "I should add that Johnny's actually a pretty nice guy. If you can ignore the continual flirting and attempts to get a date. He actually reminds me of Jack. Just not quite as smooth."

"There are very few people who are as smooth as Jack," he said, sliding the patty onto the bun with the ease of long experience. "Is he making a nuisance of himself?"
