closed starter for @milesofasher at adelina's italian restaurant

"I really, really appreciate you meeting me," Clementine says as soon as Miles sits down across from her at the table, the waiter setting down another glass of water for him. She's been here almost fifteen minutes -- well before they'd agreed to meet -- nervously playing with the cloth napkin in her lap and going back and forth between being determined this is a good idea, and fearful that it's a terrible one. "You've been so helpful these last few months, I swear, I don't know how me and Gem would've gotten through it if you hadn't been such a rock for us, especially with my mom being...well, you know." Her face reddens a little, and she hurries to say, with a small laugh, "Sorry, you've barely even sat down and I'm rambling."
