Josh couldn't help but chuckle at Andrew's rather humorous attempts to put on a smug face. If that was even his intention. He couldn't really tell and by the time he did it a second time he was far to distracted by Taylor's smile—and body—too care anymore.

He was further dumbfounded by the noticeable lack of distance between them as she sat down next to him. An electric spark jolted through his body at each point of contact. He mentally chastised himself for noticing such a tiny idiosyncrasy, but he couldn't help but not be himself when he was around Taylor. It was as if her presence sucked all the cool right out of him and left a socially awkward noodle in it's place. It was really a problem.

"Glad to have you." he managed, trying to lean back and play it cool. He naturally assumed he failed.

Thankfully, Oliva's words brought him back to reality.

"I ain't got anything better to do, let's make a day out of it." he shrugged, silently revealed at Oliva's willingness to have others tag along with her. Josh back at Taylor. "You wanna join the Mystery Gang? Olivia want's go searching for clues over by the lake. We have Scooby Snacks?" he emphasized the last part by nudging Taylor's arm with his elbow.

More electric shocks ran through him.

Joey smiled up at the twins, studying their body-language and demeanor for a moment before taking the time to actually acknowledge himself to them. No doubt they were newcomers, he certainly hadn't recognized them at first glance. Nevertheless, he felt oddly connected to them. It hadn't been so long since it was he who had been the kid that just moved into town. They would adjust soon enough, everyone did.

"Yo, what's up?" he greeted lightheartedly, attempting to make the twins feel more comfortable in first-impression kind of situation. They hadn't been doing to well to begin with.

A small vibration in the pocket of his jeans garnered his attention for a moment. In a single motion he slide the cellphone out of his pocket and scrutinized the screen.

His heart lurched once he read the name Taylor within the notification bubble. A grin formed on his face as he replied back, not wanting to keep the girl of his dreams waiting.

To: Taylor
"Hangin out at the Cafe with Liv and friends. U want in?"

Jojo paused a moment before hitting the send button, considering whether or not it would be appropriate of him to invite her the cafe like that. He didn't want to seem presumptuous and assume she wasn't busy or something. Nor did he want to come off as too interested in hanging out. He was ready for a lot of things, but messing up his friendship with Taylor wasn't one of them.

Fuck it, Taylor's cool. he asserted and it hit send resolutely.

He looked back up from his phone in time to hear Olivia turn down Andrew's offer to go shopping for her excursion to the lake. That brought Josh back to his earlier question.

"Speaking of lakes; you think going alone is a good idea? I mean, I don't doubt the ability of Miss Olivia Bad-ass, but safety in numbers, know what I'm saying?"

Jo-Vaughan followed Olivia's gaze to the aftermath of the Smith's girl's and the biker's little scuffle. Naturally, it had diffused, leaving bystanders either letting out a sigh of relief or a groan in disappointment. As for himself, he settled with a small smile; it was moments like these that kept Red Lake fresh for him. So when it came to it, he couldn't help but observe; mentally battle his way through the scenario. It saved him countless times before.

After a moment his gaze fell back on that of Olivia, who was ordering a wealth of food.

"Dang girl, you eatin up a storm. he jibbed.

Taking a sip of his last cup of orange juice, he considered Olivia's remark. He found it odd how people could blantly walk into danger without a second thought. No doubt the lake was now a dangerous place. No, he couldn't assume that. Maybe Riley drowned or ran away. But he had no evidence to back up either theory as he missed the morning's news conference. Nevertheless, if Riley had been kidnapped, the lake was no doubt a dangerous place to be snooping for clues.

Town's not much safer either. he mused, the story of the mayor's mauling resurfacing in his memory.

"Nothing much on my end, but that lake, you ain't going alone are you?" he worried. Nowhere was safe, but that didn't mean caution couldn't be applied. There was safety in numbers.

Considering Olivia's offer, he glanced at the trio of plates already stacked on his table. He had already had a hearty meal, any more and he'd burst. Surely that'd be a scene.

He offered the waitress the stack of plates and waved the courteous women away. "Naw I've had my fill. Thanks tho."

"Hello, Olivia."

Jo-Vaughan spared the newcomers a glance. Twins. he thought. Can't say take the time to 'hi' to me either.

Almost immediately the male doppelganger jumped into conversation with Olivia, while the female doppelganger seemed a little reserved. Either that or she respected her male counterpart enough not to interrupt him.

Josh shrugged, leaned back in his seat, and took a swig of orange juice. They were Olivia's friends, naturally she would engage and introduce them to him. Otherwise, he would ignore them just as they him.
