Hearing Jane's chastisement made Jake shrink just a little in embarrassment, the man giving a crooked smile to them both.
"Sorry, Dirk. I just get curious because I'm not the most keen on surprises. Fight or flight responses prove damaging more times than not, I'll say. I do appreciate the concept of something to fight, though. Thank you!" he commented, allowing himself to explain a little bit of his personality. Really, Jake English was an open book. He didn't keep secrets about himself, but it took the right situation to show or say things.
Hearing both his companions mention what they want, he committed the order to memory. Then, Dirk handed him a handful of money which Jake just stared at before it clicked.
"Oh! There's no need, Dirk! I have plenty of money to treat us all. Please allow me to, especially since I pestered you about fisticuffs and since you're finding me something to battle on the regular! I insist! It's the least I can do." The man raised a hand in a gesture meant to show that the blond could keep his money and stood, grabbing the menus and making for the counter to place the order and pay.
