 Heading to Baron Quinton's

Antoinette
Antoinette pulled up to the property, put the car in neutral and let it run a bit before cutting the ignition. She tapped her fingers absently to the music blaring on the stereo inside and generally stalled. The night was cool and the stars were spectacular above. Finally she did shut the engine off. It made the night rush in on her in a most claustrophobic way. Too frickin' quiet. She gave Zero a little kiss, and he whined as if sensing her mood. Antoinette then made her way to the front entrance and rang the bell.

"Fine, Your Excellency." She throws the proper address in hoping for brownie points. She's really scared, and she doesn't know why. For crying out loud, she hasn't done anything. Geez, this sucks. She slinks over to the chair he indicates and sinks down into it.
She tries a diversion tactic. "How has your evening been? Reading a bit?"

"Well... I did try to think about it on the way over. I've seen a lot of vampire movies and stuff. All I can figure is that we don't show up on film, right? But these were digital shots, they were taking." She had sunk this far, what was a little further?
"Plus, the media is apparently following me now, as Lash gets more press, and they think you're pretty interesting too."
She looked into his eyes for a reaction. Any kind of reaction. She sighed. "OK, they think we're dating. I'm sorry, I couldn't say you're my sire. Or my regnant. Or master, or whatever the hell I'm suppose to call you.
Now she was getting mad. She stood up and started to pace, waving her hands around in wild expression.
"I didn't know I was going to get this much attention! So sue me!"
She saw him fix his eyes on her and she immediately sat back down where she'd been told to sit originally, and started again, but this time more quietly, "But it's good attention. It will help me build my business. So, they watch us walk into clubs and things together, and the gossip dot coms and tabloid TV want to know who I'm with today and what they look like. You're a handsome, mysterious guy. They can't help themselves. But if they are trying to film us for E! what do you do? Go into hiding and scrap Lash? Doesn't the Invictus have a PR person to handle shit like this?"
She stopped. And rethought her last few words.
"Stuff like this?"

Antoinette
She bit her lip, her eyes growing large and full of fear as her blood retracted in her veins, retreating from a threat she knew she was not fully aware of. A thousand possible responses came to mind. A thousand possibilities. Begging? Pleading. Insisting? Pouting? Tantrum? Anger? Rage? What if she just got up and stormed out. What would he do? Would he follow her? She didn't think he was that kind of guy.
But, she just didn't have the guts to have a go at it.
"Of course..." suddenly her throat was impossibly dry. When had she fed last? "Of course, Your Excellency." More confidence that time. Better. She dropped her eyes in deference and stood. She gave him a little curtsey and headed for the room's great doors. "Good evening."
The servant was nowhere to be found so she let herself out. If Kindred could easily be ill, she would have thrown up on his front lawn.

~NARRATION~
When she gets outside her car is missing and a long streach limo is sitting out front. The driver is standing with a leash and her dog is currently watering one of Quinton's bush's.

"Not cool! Where's my goddamn car?!"
The fear, the sickness, the hope for browning points, all forgotten in a flash of a missing car. Antoinette turns in a perfect half-pirouette, pony-tails swinging, her small hands balled up tightly in fits of her rage. She marches back to the door and reaches for the handle to enter.
((ST: is it locked?))

The handle clicked open. Too easy. She'd expected to be locked out. That took a bit of the edge off her anger and brought some of the fear back in.
Focus! She stomped back toward the library where Quinton had been reading, so he'd know she was coming. Opening the door she stepped in, and, without waiting to be acknowledged asked slowly and darkly,
"Where's my car."

"Oh."
She was speechless. Truly speechless. Her insides did flip flops. Serious flip flops. Antionette blinked, still amazed, and gave him her special crooked grin, reserved for when she was happiest, and carefully made her way across the room toward him. She didn't want to jinx this.
"Thank you, Baron Quinton." There, back to the respect. She bit her lip, and, on total impulse, leaned over and gave him a little kiss on the cheek. Then she quickly excused herself from the room.
