She didn't know whether it was her unresponsiveness, expression or the drool beginning to leak from the corner of her mouth that made the young girl slam her fist on the table. This immediately made Zoey respond. Zoey shook her head and offered a sheepish smile in apology. "Hey... I was listening..." The girl pouted. "No. No you weren't. I can tell, you weren't saying anything. You were completely absorbed by that poster on the wall and you were practically asleep! Did you even catch my name!" The little girl squeaked. Zoey almost felt bad, really. Then she remembered something... She didn't care. "It's Belle Darling! I'm an elemental! I'm seventy eight! Pay attention to me!" She continued to squeak. "You know. You should really act your age, not your appearance. I could tell from the way you were dressed I wasn't interested in you. I'm wearing a Bespoke jacket. I don't know if all of you have heard of him, but he's the best tailor around for people like us. You, hun, have not got anything protecting you." Zoey stated blankly, gesturing to the dress. Belle frowned and opened her mouth, closed it, chewed over her retaliation and then spoke. "I don't care for ugly clothing like that, I can protect myself." She said boldly, folding her arms. Dom flicked his fingers and blew, sending a small fireball onto her dress, which immediately set alight. She was just about to scream when Lily's hand slammed across her mouth before shadows drowned the flames. No damage was actually done to Belle, Dom was quite in control. He just wanted to prove a point. Zoey couldn't say she wouldn't do the same in his position.

"You idiot! We're not in any restaurant! Pull another stunt like that and i'll..." Lily began, obviously fuming. Dom wound a coil of shaggy hair around his finger, offering her a smile. "Or what? You gonna go all dark and brooding on me, baby?" He spoke like he was incharge. He wasn't scared of anything. He was either really brave or probably - really stupid. Lily twitched a little. Her hand raised and pointed at him. Her normally perfect face was obviously holding back twisting with anger. "Don't call me that you imbecile. You're quite right though, I will. I'll make sure you feel real pain. Tedious, i'm really not the type of person you want to get on the bad side of." She growled. Zoey was holding back a smirk. Oh, how she loved drama like this, it was so funny. People catting away at eachother like this. Dom smiled at her sweetly, "Oh, but Lily, I wanna see all the sides of you." He winked. Lily, obviously enraged stood up so fast that Dom, who was leaning on the back legs of his chair, almost fell backwards before steadying himself. "Well, i've had quite enough of this carry on, Miss Neko. You have my number. Call me if you like, but only if he is not included." She said hastily, before walking. She was quite a skinny woman, now Zoey got a good look at her, but she could sense a lot of power. Zoey nodded. "Can I get that number too?" Dom called after her, but Lily had already left. He gave a hopeful smile at Zoey, who rolled her eyes.

"I have your numbers. I know who I want, sorry that this isn't more of a game show process with tests. But yeah... I'm off now. I'll see you around." Zoey said and turned around. She could hear Belle still loudly objecting, and the man let out a relieved sigh. He had been very, very nervous. She didn't trust him in the slightest. The two other woman were just too normal, they were bland and the girl... The girl she could see herself using as target practice. Annoying.

She was two blocks away, walking down an alley when she heard footsteps trying to be in unionism with her own. Who was following her? Who had made such a silly mistake? Zoey smiled to herself and whirled around going to punch them in the stomach. However they immediately grabbed her hand. "Caaaalm down." Said a very smooth voice. That crafty bastard... "Dom! What the hell do you think you're doing following me? You could get yourself killed." Zoey growled, taking her hand back and rubbing where he had grabbed it. Dom shrugged. "You wouldn't of killed me. You can't kill Dom Tedious, obviously." He said with his classic obnoxious tone. Zoey rolled her eyes. "Whatever gets you to sleep at night..." She muttered and continued walking. Dom scuttled to catch up with her, and allowed his step to move with hers. "You should put me on your team." He said with a nod, not even looking at her. His hands were stuck into well worn black jeans. He wore a plain black teeshirt under a suit jacket. Interesting style, to say the least. Zoey looked at him with a raised eyebrow. "What makes you say that?" Dom shrugged. "I'm good at what I do. Not to mention the others were pretty ugly. Except Lily. I can tell you like her. Add me in, and we're a good looking threesome." He said with a grin. Zoey shook her head. "You're a moron, you know. Just because of your appearance, doesn't mean i'm going to decide to go around kicking ass with you." She pointed out, rounding a corner onto a quiet suburban street. "So you're not denying i'm good looking?" Dom said, edging a little too close for her liking. She nudged a little further away.

"I'm saying your appearance doesn't concern me."

"Even though it does?"

"No, it doesn't."

"Yeah, it does. You judged the little girl thing."

"That's different."

"How?"

"Because. She was an idiot and I wanted to punch her in the face."

"So you don't want to punch me in the face?" Dom asked with a grin. "I can work with that..." Zoey groaned and picked up pace. She could tell he would be good on a team, sadly, he was one of those types of guys. Oh well. If she had Lily around he'd leave her alone atleast. She couldn't forget that. Unfortunately, she didn't want him knowing where she lived, so she'd be walking around the suburbs until he left her alone. Her poor cats. They must be hungry.

"So... Zoey... Single, Complicated or Taken?" He asked with a hopeful smile. Zoey let out another groan as she kept walking. Her cats would have to wait. This was going to be a long night...
