James put down the paper when a familar voice interrupted his reading. " Hey!" HE smiled and nodded towards the chair. " course you can." he folded the paper and placed it on the table in front of him. He reachd and slightly loosened the tie he had on. making a mental note to never bother with the thing again.

Jocelyn smiled as she took a set beside him. After taking a sip of her drink she asked, "I noticed you wearing that tie today." She watched as James loosen it, "Are you dressing up for me?" She chuckled slightly at her own comment before taking another sip of her drink while looking at the front cover of the newspaper that had been placed on table.

" well you know never hurts dressing like you work in an office." he said blushing a little. " You love lovely today." he replied

James got up to get himself a cup of coffee. He passed a a lady that looked familar although he couldn't quite place her. " Hello" he greeted politely as the passed.

Jocelyn smiled as James explained his reason for the tie, “Aww- I see- yet he really don’t like being in the office, huh.” She giggled slightly as she excused James as he went to get himself some coffee. When he arrived back to the area they occupied she smiled up to him. “Well thank you,” she replied to his complement he had given prior to getting up.

Your quite welcome" he grinned as he reached the table. Would you like a cup?" he asked he had meant to ask before he got up

Smiling Jocelyn picked up her drink, feeling that the glass was still half full, "No thank you." She glanced away from James and back down to the paper still laying on the table. Humm, she thought as she took another sip of her drink. She looked back up to James, "So James anything exciting going on in our department that you heard?"

James sighed and shok his head " not really I been hoping it would pick up some but it hasn't seemed to this week." he took a drink of his coffee. " maybe it will pick up some soon."

Nodding her head Jocelyn shrugged her shoulders, "Yeah maybe." She glanced around the break area taking in the other people occupying the room. As she done so she was overcome by a daze feeling that was short lived, "Huh." She looked at James again wondering to herself if she heard him say anything or not.

James who seemed to have tripped and fallen into a downward spiral for thoughts for about 5 seconds and looked at jocelyn with a confused expression as his thoughts returned to the reality. " Huh, wha.. no did you say something?"James shook his head slightly and laughed his distraction off. " I think I need a day out of the office.... So... about this Lunch... what did you have in mind?"

Jocelyn shock her head, "Nah." She quickly gained a wide smile, "So-yes- lunch time. Well." She glanced up to the clock, "It is a little early, but I think I could use some fresh air. I thought we could go to this deli and then enjoy our lunch in the park about a block from here." She glanced down and then back up to James awaiting his response.

" The park huh sounds great to me I could use the fresh air myself. He answered with a grin.

"Shall we then," Jocelyn asked pulling herself up out of her chair. She smiled at James as he stood along side her and they headed toward the door together. Once reaching the door Jocelyn paused and waited because she knew James would open the door for her. Smiling as he done so she thanked him with a slight nod, which when they reach outside the departments break room she held her arm out toward him. She stood in the hall waiting for him to wrap his arm in hers and be on their way to lunch.

James laughed lightly when she paused at the door. He smirked and pulled the door open allowing her to exit first. Once in the hallway he took her arm in his. " Three days.. didn't take you long to get spoiled to gentlemanly behavior." He grinned down at her. as they approached the lifts. He pushed the button and waited. " You don't mind if we ride to the park do you? My brother and his girlfriend dropped by unannounced this morning and I had to use muggle transportation." He explained. even though it wasn't that he didn't enjoy riding his motorcycle in fact he loved it. But it had always been more convenient to use magical methods to get to and from work.

When James took Jocelyn’s arm she smiled, “Well of course. A lady can get use to treatment like that rather quickly.” She laughed slightly as they walked toward the lift together. As James mention riding to the park Jocelyn gave him a sideways glance. “Ride,” she repeated in a questionable tone. “Muggle transportation,” she continued. “Just what is it we are riding in a car?”

ooc- next post in the lift?

AJ stopped just outside the breakroom door to post the following announcement:

Level 4 Employees:
You are all hereby summoned to a meeting to discuss the classification and proper way to deal with a highly dangerous cross bred creature. Meet in the Multiple Division Conference room, we need to get this figured out ASAP.
~Your head,
AJS.

Violet looked out the door and saw that a new message had been posted on the bulletin board. Quietly, she got up to read it:

"Uh-oh. This is not good," Violet said to herself. She drained the last of her coffee quickly and then went straight to the Multiple Division Conference Room.

Corvus walked into the room and quickley sat down on one of the couches "Arrgh!" she grunted "Some bloody punk decided to take care of a pest that I was sent to deal with" she sighed "When will they learn that there is a pest division for a reason!" she yawned and rolled her eyes "Some people, ugh"
