Do you think you'll make some time for me? Or are you JUST telling me that you're in town for the sake of it?

I’ll see you there.

Of course he Googled the address to see what kind of place his brother wants to meet at. The secondary purpose? To see a menu, of course! He likes to be prepared, to at least have some idea of the fare before setting a toe in a place. It feels like a waste of time to pour over a menu when one could have done so ahead of time. Time is money. And, well, he doesn’t want to be rude to his own brother by spending the finite time they’ll have reading a menu. Who knows when one of them will fall prey to some mercurial mood and call their lunch over.

Jake keeps it as casual as he ever is in a simply pair of dark grey trousers and a black button down. He’s early by about five minutes, glancing in the window for any sign of Nate before positioning himself near the door to watch for his approach.
