To avoid having to avoid eye contact any more, Jake decides to go pick up the bits of coffee mug she broke by letting it slide from her fingers like a total idiot. They're down to one cup, now, which means either they'll have to alternate who gets to have coffee, or she's going to have to learn to take it with less sugar so they can share.

She's still carefully picking up shards of porcelain when the door finally shuts behind the rest of her team, and by the time she gets to her feet, Cougar is standing and watching her with the sort of grin on his face that brings a blush to hers.

"I can't believe I did that in front of the team," she breathes, giggling a little despite herself. She does as she's told, though she does take a brief detour to dump the broken cup in the trash, but then she makes a beeline straight for Cougar. "They're never going to let it go. Never."
