Ashlee grinned and took another sip of her margarita, "I kill people." she said, "why do you think I always cary a weapon or two? I'm a professional as.sasin. some of the people here have probably hired me in past actually" she looked around the room, "you wouldbe suprised how much people will pay to get rid of someone they dont like." she said with a shrug.

((SORREH!!!! was gone all weekend! GOSH IT WAS INTENSE! i partied with a UBER BABE who is 20. ive never danced that low in my life. I was less than a foot of the ground! no idea how i did it XD only thing that suck. his on and off gf(who is totally gorgeous) is a girl i talk to in 1st hour and a decent friend. im scared shes gonna find out XD))

Ashlee tossed her hair, "well, some clients are better than others." she said, "some pay better, and others help you out." she winked.((FAIL XD))

{ lmbo. xD Nice one! }

"Well," Josh said, grinning devilishly. "Can this client buy you another drink?" he snapped his fingers at a waitress walking by, one with blonde hair and long legs, who batted her eyelashes and ruffled her angel wings, which were black as night.

((she didnt find out.....YAY XD i was terrified to go to clas.s!!!))

"Why yes," Ashlee said, "that client can." she glanced the waitress over, long legs, tall, pretty blonde hair, but an angel. If it werent for the feathery black wings, she might have been slightly jealous, but she preferred her demon wings to this other girl's any day.

Josh purred low in his throat, winking at the angel as he scooped two drinks off the tray she was carrying. "Nice wings," he said, still grinning, as he handed Ashlee her drink. The girl blushed. "You must've been pretty bad..." He waved her away, then, ignoring the paper she'd thrust into his hand. Probably had her number on it.

{ aha. xD } 

"Oh I know," Josh smirked, downing his drink. "But she happens to have very good connections around these parts..." He only winked, then, standing up. "Come on, let's go dance~"

{ We should skip 'till morning soon. xD } 

Ashlee materialized in Josh's room, siting casually on the bed and inspecting her nails, "someone had a little too much to drink last night." she teased without looking up at him, "including that little blonde tramp you brought home last night." she stopped inspecting her flawless manicure and finally looked at Josh, "she left about a half hour ago, and I must say, she must have looked a lot better last night cuz she wasnt much to look at this morning."

Deomi looked into the cup of capuccino she was holdong. She had been awake all night, with nowhere to go, and nowhere to be. Deomi knew there were dark circles under her eyes, and she knew that her hair was slightly messed up from all the wind from the previous night, but it wasnt like she really cared. And its not liek she could do much about it, the police had been at her apartment when she went there, so she couldnt really use any of her stuff, and she didnt have much money on her to buy new clothes. Deomi decided she would just have to wait until the police gave up on their investigation of the library fire to get her belongings. She glanced up as someone walked into the coffee shop she was at. Sarah. Deomi took another sip of her capuccino and looked down. Then, deciding how rude it was to act like Sarah didnt exist, she looked up and said "good morning." quietly.

Liam jolted uprisht, breathing heavily and looking around. He was in his room, thank god. Still panting, he ran a hand through his hair and leaned back on the bed. Nightmares. But that was expected. He had always had nightmares after a stressful day, and yesterday hadn't exactly been pleasant.

"Funny you'd remember, and I wouldn't," Josh said, trying not to look too relieved. "I doubt I'm a sight for sore eyes right now either, though. Must have gotten pretty wild." Signalling to the trashed house he lived in, he tossed the ruined shirt on the floor, pulling on a clean navy blue one. His ruffled blonde hair stuck up at the back. 

Shoving a hand in one of the top drawers of his dresser, he pulled out a bottle of amber liquid, took a swig, and put it back. "What're you doing here?" he asked, not really caring, but wanting to get the subject off of his scandalous night. "Stalking me?" 

__

Sarah jumped, eyes wider than the full moon. She was feeling off, obviously; usually the scent of another non-mortal stuck out like a stick in the mud to her. She hadn't even noticed Deomi sitting there. Her head throbbed painfully, but she managed a half-hearted smile. "Good morning," she replied, looking away quickly. Sarah didn't want to remember yesterday. She made a mental note to avoid this coffee shop.

__

Jason pinched his eyes shut, letting the image of Deomi sitting there on Luke's front porch flood his mind. Then he black it out, eyelids fluttering open again. It would be too risky to appear in front of Deomi; if she was in public, he would reveal himself. He could hide his wings from human eyes, but not his entire body. He'd have to do this like a human.

Sucking in a deep breath, Jason began to wander through the town, peeking into shops and stores in search of that elusive, mysterious angel he'd started to befriend. 

Ashlee shrugged, "I woke up on your couch, used your shower, and here I am." she said with a smile, "besides, you can't honestly say you wouldn't love having a girl like me as your stalker." she said with a wink.

___

Deomi sighed, "Sarah," she began slowly, "we really should talk. I'm new to this whole..." She trailed off, searching for the right words, "situation I'm in, and could really use some help from someone who knows what she's doing."

___

((hmmmm. what to do with Liam...........I suppose he could run into Jason. Now wouldn't that be intresting XD))

{ Do it snoweh. o3o Though I suppose Jason won't be very pleased.. }

"I'd prefer to not have a stalker at all," he said frostily, trying to ignore the fact that she'd used his shower, and slept on his couch. Josh scowled at the mirror as he fiddled with his hair. "What are you doing here, anyways? Shouldn't you be out chasing after that boy? Whats-his-name... Jacob? Jerome? Julias? Jason? Yes, Jason... shouldn't you be chasing after him at the moment?"

___

Sarah made a small noise in the back of her throat. "I don't know what I'm doing," she said in a tired, worn-out voice. "The only way I can help you is to avoid you. Hungry vampires don't mix well; that includes your friend, the half-blood. Besides, you'll never get used to it. Not after ten years, or fifty years, or a hundred years..." Her voice cracked. "You get my point." 

Liam found himself walking down the sidewalk, head hung low, hood up, and headphones in. He was in one of his low moods and didn't really want to be bothered. THe song sing for the moment by eminime blasted in his ears. A few people were watching him, he could feel it. But it wasnt liek he really cared all that much. He was lost in his thoughts, and really wasnt paying attention, because he walked into someone. He looked up and started to apologize, but as soon as he recognized who it was, the apology died and was replaced with a low growl. It was Jason.

__

Ashlee rolled her eyes, "shouldn't you be after Deomi?" she pointed out, "besides, I jsut woke up, I have plenty of time to find Jason. I am an immortal, after all."

__

Deomi shook her head, "I don't think we really can avoid each other, Liam is drawn to you, that much is obvious, and where he goes, I go." she said, "hes pretty much all I have." Her blue eyes were vacant as she stared down at the table in front of her.

Jason, at the moment, was confused until he realized who it was that growled at him. Liam. His lip curled with impatience and annoyance, revealing sharp fangs that weren't there two days ago. His throat burned; the shifter's heartbeat echoed through his mind. "Liam," he said curtly, wiping off the spot on his sweater where Liam had brushed against him. "Fancy meeting you here."

~

"I'm extremely moody and hungover," He snapped, tone vicious. "I don't have to go anywhere with that prissy little angel today." Josh stalked out of his bedroom, eyes smoldering, face set in a stony ex
pression. He pulled a couple eggs out of the fridge, and a frying pan out of the cupboard, turned the dial on the stove and waited for it to heat up. 

~

Sarah bit down, hard, on her tongue so she wouldn't snarl, "you have Jason" at her. She stayed silent, staring at the coffee in her hands, which she'd just received from the woman at the counter. Slapping down a twenty, she insisted she keep the change. "Well, whatever you mean by that, I can as sure you that I am not drawn to Liam; I'll be leaving the city in a few weeks. As I always do. He doesn't have a choice if I stick around or not, and I'm sure he won't be stupid enough to follow me across seas."

Smoothing down her hair, Sarah then blinked guiltily at Deomi. Something twisted her stomach. Sighing, she closed her eyes and gave in. "Alright. I'll help you and Jason, but only until I leave. Then you're on your own." 

Liam's eyes flashed, "Good to see you again Jason." he said, words laced with spite and anger. he clenched his hands into fists. He glanced around, and decided it was best to keep control and stay a human. There were too many witnesses.

__

Ashlee debated just appearing in his kitchen, but decided to walk for once, "you're not the only one who drank last night Josh. So believe me when I say you're not the only hungover one in this room. What I'm saying is, if I have to drag my sorry a$$ to work, so should you. You may be paying me to kill Jason, but you aren't paying me enough to make me hurry up about it." She tossed her hair over her shoulder, "and keep in mind, we still have that bet,"

__

You have Jason. The words echoed in her head. Where was Jason? She haden't seen him since he vanished the previous night, and he had seemed so angry. So dangerous. She almost shuddered when she remembered the anger that had been in his voice. She blinked and brought herself back to the present, "thank you. That's all I'm asking." she smiled, "I have a lot of questions, but i'd rather not ask them here." She glanced around the Cafe, which was full of people, "Where there are so many people."
