Reid sits up a little straighter when he catches sight of T.J., shaking his head at the question once his friend as approached the table. "No, no, not long at all. I haven't even had time to make a dent in my coffee."
He leaves out the part about how he's so jittery as it is that he's pretty convinced the caffeine hit will only make it worse. Luke would probably have been firm in removing the coffee from his reach by now, but Luke isn't here and a vice is a vice so he pauses to take a quick sip.
"Thanks for meeting me," he continues with a grateful smile. "Luke and I promised each other we wouldn't have any meltdowns over the wedding planning, but I think I'll get dangerously close to panicking if I can't figure out this venue situation."
Reid beckons for T.J. to sit, pushing the menu toward him. "Anyway, I'm sure you want something, take your time. It's on me."
