Sophie smiled back, opening the bar door wide for Raven to walk through first.

Raven went in, looking over at te other woman.

Sophie smiled back as she let the door close behind her and guided Raven over to a couple of open seats at the bar. “What do you like?”

Raven shrugged. "Surprise me."

“Alright. Just give me a hint so I can make it a good one.” she smiled. “Gin, rum, or tequila?”

"Mm…rum." she said, smiling back.

“Alright.” she smiled back, flagging the bartender over. “Two strawberry mojitos.”

She stretched quietly.

The bartender nodded and started making the drinks.
Sophie smiled as she leaned back in her seat. “You know, this has been a great first date. Never knew Jade was a matchmaker.” she chuckled.

"Yeah, it has." she agreed, smiling at Sophie.

“How long did you and Jade know each other again?” she asked even though she was sure that she already had.

"Ah…I'm not sure."

“A while then, at least?” she supplied.

"Yeah, a while."

Sophie nodded, accepting the simple explanation. It didn't really matter anyway. Jade wouldn't set them up if they didn't know and trust each other. Besides, things were going well.

Raven smiled at hre again.

Sophie smiled back at her as the bartender brought over their drinks.

She drummed her fingers for just a moment, taking her drink.

“Cheers.” Sophie smiled as she accepted her own glass.

"cheers." she echoed.

“You wanna leave your tab open or close out?” the bartender asked.

“Leave it open for now, Bud.” Sophie nodded, pulling out her wallet.

Raven looked at Sophie, then the bartender.

“Alright. No trouble now.” Bud warned with a hint of playful teasing.

Sophie chuckled and shook her head. “I don't plan on it.”

Raven laughed a little. "We'll stay out of trouble."

Bud raised a brow at Raven but gave a small nod at her assurance. “I’m gonna hold you both to that.” he smiled before heading over to take care of another customer.

Sophie waited a moment before playfully sticking her tongue out at his back. “I don't get into that much trouble when I come here.” she told Raven.

Raven laughed at her. "You sure?"

“Yeah.” she nodded. “I mean, I may have gotten into a few small… instances but nothing serious.” Sophie shrugged.

She raised her eyebrows, letting out another soft laugh. "I see, I see."

Sophie smirked a little and took a sip of her drink.

She took a small sip of her own as well.
