Dean didn't really think Ron would be in the best of moods, but he was hoping he wouldn't be in the worst of them either. In fact, he actually wondered briefly if Ron was even going to show. He looked up in relief when he heard Ron's voice and nodded as he sat. "Good to see you mate," he said simply. "I haven't ordered anything yet. What'll you have?"
Dean briefly studied Ron. He didn't want to look at him so long that the other man would bristle and demand to know why Dean was staring, but Dean was doing his best to gauge Ron's attitude. He didn't expect to be able to make him feel better, but he sure as hell didn't want to make him feel any worse either.
