Did Jimmy know she was putting on a show for him and this woman? Absolutely. Did he care? Not in the slightest. It was very clear to everyone now that Sachiko had one ~~Maurice~~ James Gladin wrapped around her delicate little finger, and today was no exception. He grinned at her and leaned back in the booth, crossing his arms and pretending to look like he was pondering over the matter.

"Hmmm. I probably have a few better places in mind," he told her. Better meaning more expensive too. What was the point of being a big shot Head Healer if you didn't make the big bucks? Big bucks that you could turn around and spend on your gal?

Speaking of better places, he wanted to tell her about the surprise trip he'd planned for her for her upcoming birthday. However, despite his every instinct telling him to just blurt it out - he had no patience when it came to surprises - he had to remember Sachiko had people trailing her most of the time. Looking for candid photos or gossip they could publish, and the last thing he wanted to do was blurt out where they'd be spending her birthday weekend.

Which brought him to the other matter at hand...

As for the actual answer to Sachiko's question... Well, Florrie wasn't going to admit that she was here hoping that people like Sachiko turned up. The fame and fortune of the magic community all passed through, at one point or another. It wasn't often that they stayed for lunch, but when they did it was usually a very different type of individual that the woman she was currently watching. It almost sounded like she was bitter about where she was born, and Florrie filed that mentally away, too.

When the man slid into the booth next to the model, Florrie's eyebrow ended up somewhere near her hairline. If she'd know he'd mistaken her for a waitress she would have been appalled. Not that their was anything wrong with being waitstaff, of course - Oli was working in a restaurant somewhere, and her little brother was probably wonderful at it. But, her? Really? Though, if waitstaff wore Burberry trench coats, maybe she was in the wrong career. His nod wasn't returned as her eyebrow settled back into its place, and she almost retched at the display Sachiko put on. Covering it with a fake cough and pressing a napkin to her mouth, Florrie added this display to her mental file. Sachiko's simpering over a man was something she could definitely publish, after all.

Especially because this guy, aside from being hot, seemed to be a nobody.

He noticed the cough, and he glanced at the woman again. Whoever she was, she was apparently important enough to garner Sachiko's attention, but he had a feeling that little cough wasn't just because she was feeling under the weather. No matter. Jimmy was used to people being jealous of him, and even more jealous of the attention he got from Sachiko. So, he flashed the woman a smile, putting the Veela charm into overdrive as he grinned at her as if she were an old friend. Despite his broad grin, he might as well have been flashing fangs at the woman.

"Can I help you?" he asked sweetly. Too sweetly. "Maybe provide you a cough drop?"
