Re: Restaurant

[Zane]

"Client, Amelia. I'm waiting for my client," he said and made her sit down beside him. "Who was that man?"

[GL]

"sure, client." She winked and pulled off her jacket. She hung it on the backrest of the chair and sat down. "honestly, i dont know."

[Zane]

"Oh, whatever," and two men in suits entered the VIP room. "Ah, mister Zane?" one guy looked at Amelia.
"She's with me," he waved and gestured to them to sit down. He whispered to Amelia. "Sorry, we'll talk more about it."

[GL]

Amelia looked up at the two men that called Zanes name. Heh. So he is playing with the big boys?" Amelia laughed a little too herself and looked away. When she had calmed down she smiled and nodded once towards the men as a greeting.

[Zane]

"Yes, so what do you want?" he asked the men as they sat down.

He smiled reassuringly at Amelia. "This won't take long," he whispered to her and he looked at the two.

"I'm aware you want information that big company at Creta," he started. "But I have nothing on it - you know how I work when you want it done."

The two men pushed the suitcase forward. "Money's not the problem. We want the valuable - for the mafia."

[GL]

Amelia nodded and sat still beside Zane. This was the first time that she had been a part of a meeting like this. cool. She looked at the suitcase and back at Zane.

[Zane]

He gestured for them and they opened the suitcase revealing money.
Zane smiled. "How much?" he asked.

"Two million cens."

Zane looked at him dully. "I want 20 million cens for this job."

[GL]

Amelia could feel the sweatdrops rinning down her back. 20 million?! Is he insane?! She looked at the two men to see their reactions to Zanes reply. She whispered to herself, "Hm... what a crazy guy..."

[Zane]

"As always, so overpriced, mister Zane," he said and took out a check.
"But as long as you do the job."

Zane smiled at them. "I never fail a job," he stood up and shook hands with them. "Just put the whole payment in the check; I don't want to carry suitcases."

The handed the check to him and left. He turned to Amelia. "So, you see how I accept jobs."

[GL]

Amelia laughed some and shook her head. "Yeah, i see how. You work in a very... intresting way Zane." Very intresting...

[Zane]

He sat back down beside her. "It was a small job," he smiled.

"At any rate, what was with the old man?" he glanced discreetly and saw the man was still there. "What did he tell you?"

[GL]

"small job? ... yeah, sure it was reaaaally small, especially when you get 20 million for it." She eyerolled.

Amelia looked at the man. "Its... private."

[Zane]

"I get jobs that pay me half a billion cens," he said and sighed. "It's private, hm? Ever thought that when you made me tell you about my sister that it was private too, Amelia?"

He looked at the man. "So I suppose this friend thing works on your side only, hm?"

[GL]

Amelia sighed and looked at Zane. "Im looking for someone. That man over there-" She shook hear head towards the man. "He offered his help, thats all."

[Zane]

"He offered his help? Sounds like he bribed you," he said and turned to her, not smiling. "Your facial expression threw you off, your shoulders are tense, meaning you're nervous. You're wary. You don't know what's going on."

He sighed. "Who are you looking for?"

[GL]

"Hey, i know whats going on. Kinda. Im just surprised that he knew what i was doing. And... i was surprised he knew my name. Thats all." She shruged. She leaned her elbow on the table and then put her chin in her hand. "Zane, Im not going to tell you who im looking for."

[Zane]

He stood up. "All right," he said, tired. "Do what you want."
Zane went to where the old man was. "If you're going to talk to her, there she is. I don't know why you had to send her off but whatever."

He shooed the man off his chair and pushed him where Amelia was.

[GL]

Amelias eyes got bigger and she got really nervous. What the hell is he doing?! Amelia stood up and bowed to the man. "Im sorry for my friends behaviour. I hope you can forgive us." She looked up at the man, who was furious. He looked at her and his eyes narrowed. "I hope you understand that i will remember this." He said and bended down so he was in the same hight as Amelia. "Teach your friend how to behave, Amelia." He stood up straight once again and began to walk. Before he passed Amelia he pushed her aside with all his strength. Amelia fell down on the floor and watched the man walk out from the VIP room.

[Zane]

Zane sneered and followed the old man. This is stupid. I have a job to do - so why the hell am I following this stupid old man?

He glanced back a second to Amelia. More importantly, what is wrong with this geezer?

[GL]

Amelia stood up and looked at Zane, as he followed the old man. What is Zane up to? She looked around the VIP room and noticed that the guests was watching her and Zane. She turned around and hurried after Zane and the man. "Zane!"

[Zane]

He stopped but kept his eye on the old man's figure. "What do you want?"

[GL]

Amelia felt a little guilty because of the way she acted before. She didnt want to upset Zane and naither did she want him to walk away. "Dont go." She stopped behinde him and sighed. "Im sorry."

[Zane]

"Is that all?" he said. "I'm going to lose him if you're going to keep stalling me." And he started walking again.

[GL]

She ran up beside Zane and looked up at his face. "Why are you even following him?"

[Zane]

"Don't misunderstand," he said. "I'm suspicious of him and I want information. That's all. Why are you stopping me anyway? Why are you asking? It's none of your business," he said, smiling.
