Shopping Interrupted
It was, all things considered, a pretty good day. No super-villain attacks, no mad Mandarins, no nothing. Which was why Toni and some of the other Young Avengers had gone into the city for shopping

It was probably too good to last.

"Okay gang," Toni said. "Lunch time is upon us. Suggestions?"

	Eliza giggles in amusement. "There is hope for you yet then James. You try lots of new things compared to most people I think." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Emily smiled and hooked her arm through Qamar's reassuringly, shuffling her shopping bag full of books into her other hand. "It's delicious." She promised. "You'll love it. Just be careful what you pick if you don't like too much spice." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I dunno," Toni said. "A little spice makes life exciting." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Or downright dangerous," Sammy murmured, eyeing Qamar and Emily. She dropped back a half stop behind the group and jammed her hands in her pockets. "How far is this place?" she asked in a louder voice. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Not far I hope. I'm starving." Despite having eaten two hot dogs just fifteen minutes ago. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Qamar looks at James. "There aren't exactly many Mexican restaurants in Cairo." He then turns to Emily. "And I can handle spicy food. Again, Cairo." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	emmysmash 2009-11-24 06:32 am UTC (link)
	"Cairo, of course." Emily flushes a little, glad to see the restaurant coming up a little down the road. "There it is. Hope they don't mind large parties dropping in on them." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm not really bad with spicy food," Eliza admits. She chuckles a little more loudly. "I actually love it personally. The right mix of cheeses and spices? Tasty." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Done right, it can be good," Sammy said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Qamar glances down as if suddenly noticing Emily's arm, and briefly twitches, startled. His brow furrows, and he glances back to Sammy. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Sammy was carefully looking at windows they passed, but her attempt at a bland expression was failing. She was a little hurt at the implied intimacy. Some notice that things had changed would've been nice. A text message even.

She caught Qamar's glance and gave a brief smile before looking back at the window displays. She could get angry at the stores for not waiting until after Thanksgiving to put up the Christmas decorations. It was safer.

	Huh. She's smiling. She must... be okay with Emily's arm. Which means that... she's... no longer interested in him. Not too surprising, really. After what happened... he can't be surprised that she's not interested in him anymore. Well, that's a lot to think about, certainly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

The look she got in return clinched the deal for her. She couldn't watch him and Emily. Her pride had taken a few too many hits lately to be okay with it.

She tapped the arm of the person closest to her. "James, I uh... forgot something. You all have a good time." Surely a sixteen year old kid obsessed with video games wouldn't notice she was upset. "I'll see everyone later."

	James wasn't that oblivious most of the time, only when he was playing video games. "I'll go with you," James said. With all that had happened lately he didn't want Sammy going off by herself when she was upset. "I know there's some leftover pot roast from last night. I'll see you guys later," he said to the others. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Eliza looks between everyone in the group. Was she missing anything? Probably. But she gave James mental brownie points for offering to go with Sammy. She'll pick him up something on the trip as a sort of thank you for him since he was being more thoughtful about things. He was a good friend for Sammy.

"Okay James. I'll see you latter," she smiles a little at her brother.

	Qamar blinks, surprised by the suddenness of Sammy's departure. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Well. This was... not good. She'd sensed things were awkward between Sammy and Qamar, but Toni definitely hadn't been expecting that. "Well," she said softly. (Reply to this)(Parent)
