The lights in the hallway were dimmed, body guards everywhere, stopping each and every guest. Demanding their invitation.
Near, Nate Rivers was not pleased by this. Having to stand in the dimmed hallways while he and his team stood in line waiting to be admitted into said party.
"Wow; It's a good thing we got invitations eh' Near?" Genvanni said, nudging said detective playfully. It was clear that his team seemed to enjoy the atmosphere, but he certainly did not. He's always thought get togethers like this only lead to drama, he would be much happier getting work done.
But unfortunately this was part of his work. Mello had given him a slight tip of the brim by letting Halle know of a young woman that could be of use.
Rena Diver. A half Japanese beauty who modeled as a teenager before getting offered a scholarship in Criminal Justice, upon taking that she dropped her modeling career and became a successful detective; surely not the best but she was useful, and it's quite possible that her modeling could open doors for them.
Commander Rester quickly snapped Near out of his thoughts as he was pushed to the door. Flashing his badge he was let in immediately. Quickly scanning the room for the person he came to see.
"Near." Halle said grabbing him by the shoulders.
"Yes, Lidner?"
She quickly pushed her hair out of her face, fixing the bun that was set on top of her head, it was a formal occasion, so she as well as everyone else was dressed up, she was wearing a body hugging red dress with shite stockings, she looked very eloquent.
"As you may already know Miss Diver is a social butterfly. She won't be easy to talk to, can you handle talking to her?"
Near shot her a death glare before walking away to find his prey. Did he have much use for the girl? No. But as much as he hated to admit it he was getting a little desperate and was willing to try anything at the moment. If he could just try to find a way to get Rena close to Amane...
There she is. He thinks to himself walking up to her, she was dressed quite sophisticated. Her bright red hair, which was her signature statement as a teen, was pulled up into a bun with two red curls framing her face; her make up was dark enough to make her bright eyes pop and her pouty lips were adorned in nude lip gloss. Her dress was a floor length, body hugging black, and the low cut of it was enough to make many of men gape at her as she idly tipped her glass of champagne back to her lips.
"Rena Diver." He greeted walking up to her with a surprising ease; Most wouldn't think of Near as great at socializing, but he was a phenomenal actor, and that worked to his advantage in situations like these.
She took a black heel off the wall she was leaning back on and gave the boy a casual smile.
"Sup kiddo?" She greeted with ease.
Now that, was enough to throw him off.
"Actually I'm three years your senior."
"Oh so your 20?" She said, getting up and looking him over.
"Well I'll admit your quite the looker, but I find it a little odd how you'd know that."
He knew she was lying, he could see it in her eyes; at the moment this was just a game to her, and if she wanted to play that? Well he could too.
He gets closer to her, making a few people stare.
"I've been watching you very closely." He whispers.
"I knew I had someone following me. One of your men I suppose?" She said seriously, but made sure she leaned in, giving a cute giggle after.
He smiles after her.
"That would be Gevanni." He said with a coy smile.
"I see, so why don't we pretend like were getting a room and you can explain exactly what you want from me?"
She said this as she suggestively took his hand, swaying her hips back and forth as they walked up the padded stares, Near did his best to look as if he was in pure lust, and she did a great job at looking like a blushing virgin.
