Looking around her dark bedroom in the grand house which she had moved into a few months ago, Coco watched her pale reflection in the mirror as she stood in the moonlight. Slipping a light but tightly fitting dress over her frame, the dark dyed woman smirked before clipping on a few accessories to her person. Madame Deschamps was closed for its night off of the week and she hadn’t felt like sticking around on her own. Making sure her make-up was perfectly on her face, she gave a fashionable pout to the mirror, shut the blinds and closed the door after leaving the room.

Softly making her way down the staircase, Coco picked up her clutch from the entrance hall table. Once she had locked the big front door behind her, one of the cars which she owned pulled up with a driver in the front seat. Gliding down the steps, the French woman smiled politely as the rear door of the car was opened and then closed once she was in the car. Sitting to the middle, it took a few seconds for the car to start up again and for Madame Deschamps to be on her way. With it being a weekday, Coco knew that the Grill wasn’t going to be quite busy, but she would keep in mind some of the other places she enjoyed going to encase it was a bit too busy for her liking.

Arriving outside, Coco stepped out of the car after the door was opened and placed a light kiss on the cheek of the driver as a goodbye. Opening the door to the Grill, she made her way to the bar with her heels clicking against the floor loudly into the mildly busy bar. Sitting on one of the many empty stools, she ordered herself a cocktail and waited patiently for it to arrive in front of her. With a light hint of her charm, she smiled and handed some money to the bartender before taking a sip of the fruity drink.

BEAUTY QUEEN ON A SILVER SCREEN
LIVING LIFE LIKE I'M IN A DREAM
~*~

Bitter springs was such a small, quaint town to settle in for a while. The people were open minded, some even wanted to be pets without strings and weren't hard to convince if seduced. At least that was Alice's experience so far. She'd really only been in town a few weeks, on order from her maker, but she liked it so far.

Having spent the morning in bed with her computer, on a video call to her maker in Europe, she finally got out of bed and showered. Tousling her hair, she took her time with applying her make-up and had to rummage through her closet to find something fitting for a night out to find another passing meal. Not that she needed the blood at that moment, maybe she should just go out for a drink and see where the night led, yes, that seemed like the best idea. Maybe she'd pick up another useful skill for later.

Finally arriving at the grill for a drink, Alice smiled brightly when she got to the bar and ordered herself a really sweet drink, because the sugar and alcohol would really keep whatever urges she might have in check. When the drink arrived, she smiled again, handed over some money and sipped the drink before she did anything else. When she was pleased with the result, Alice removed her jacket and sat down by the bar, hoping to pick out someone to learn from when she turned to see the beautiful dark haired lady next to her.

Offering the lady a slight smile, Alice decided it would just be plain rude to stare and looked back at the bartender for a moment, wondering if maybe she should just take one of the employees home that night.

Holding the ice cold glass in her pale hand, Coco took another quick sip of her drink. She silently placed the glass back down on the bar mat which was on the bar counter. Spying the red haired woman sit beside her, she took a sly glance through her peripheral vision, scanning the woman from her head to her feet. The red head was pretty stunning if Coco was to be honest. With her smile growing after seeing the other's slight one, Coco knew that she would have to figure out what this woman was.

Facing her body openly in the other's direction, Coco took another quick glance of the other before introducing herself. "'Ello ma chere, I'm Corinne Deschamps but you can call me Coco!" Coco displayed another big smile before turning her head in the direction of the bar and extended her arm to take her drink. Sipping at it again, she then spoke once more to the flame haired woman. "And you are?"

Alice was content drinking her sugary drink. It wasn't as much the alcohol she needed as the sugar it seemed, but she'd quickly finished up the drink and ordered another one. It wasn't until the other drink arrived that she noticed the woman next to her had turned to face her and started talking nonetheless.

Turning to face the woman herself, Alice smiled slightly again, gently shaking the offered hand. "Alice," she replied with a smile of her own. There was something special about this woman, she could sense it, right underneath the surface of her perfect skin. She released her hand again though, feeling like she'd held on a little too long already, trying to figure out what it was about this woman that was different.
