"Honestly, Lukas, he probably runs more behind the scenes than you will as mayor. Would, that is, if you win the election." She smiled shyly at him.

"Oh, but I do so hate stooping to that kind of level..."

"I suppose I'll just have to be very persuasive."
He grinned.

"Yes, Lukas? Oh- Starbucks-"
She smiled back at him as she led him into the café, which was crowded, but not overcrowded, as though everyone wanted to come off the wintry streets and warm themselves with a hot drink.

The line already reached nearly to the door, so they waited in it, Teja finally releasing his hand in order to take her gloves off and tuck them into a coat pocket.
"What'll you be having? I'm thinking a pumpkin spice chai latte and a couple of egg salad sandwich wraps for me," she said, taking her wallet out. Her fingers were a little numb and she wasn't sure she could wait until she had her drink to warm them up, but she wasn't sure that she was ready to hold hands without gloves on. It was a lot more intimate.

As it came their time to order, Teja went first since she knew exactly what she wanted. As she took out her debit card she glanced over her shoulder at him and asked, "Are you getting a coffee, Lukas?"
