Claudia tried to cover both her surprise and joy from showing on her face. "Oh, hi. I didn't see you their. With your dislike for such occasions I didn't even think you would be here!" She said, forcing out a fake laugh as she lied.
"Yeah I've been keeping an eye out." He said, before gulping down drink from his bottle.
"If your sat here drinking, then I don't think your going to do a very good job keeping lookout." She said playfully, raising her voice so it could be herd over the music.
"There's not much going on tonight, and a few drinks wont hurt. And I have to drink something, or this music is going to drive me round the bend." He joked.
Claudia smiled at him, she loved it when he joked. He wasn't good at it, but that wasn't the point. It was something he almost never did, and so it to her it makes her feel special when he does it with her. Claudia finally broke from her trance and saw Jack looking at her oddly. Going red, she realised she had been blatantly staring at him.
"Eh ... sorry..." She said, embarrassed.
Jack just laughed it off for a minute, but then it was his turn to stare. "Do you know how beautiful you are tonight?" He hadn't realised he was saying his thoughts out loud, but he didn't care, she was like a Greek Goddess, she was amazing.
Claudia blushed and quickly looked around for Hector or Ramon. "Jack!" She hissed. "If anyone hears you then your dead."
Jack just smiled. "Yeah I know, but I'm pretty sure I could put up a good fight against this whole compound." He stated, before he realised exactly what he was saying. That was not the way to think, he was going to leave Mexico after completing the mission, not wiping out the Salazars.
"Well that's not the point. Its dangerous speaking like that in public." She scolded, pretending to be angry at him so he would realise he couldn't talk like that in public, about her, or the Salazars.
He lent forward towards her with a mischievous grin on his face and whispered her ear, "Well your worth the risk." Claudia began to giggle, his voice was enough to turn her on alone, never mind when he whispered to her. Before she had a chance to reply he lent in again, "Come on, lets go. I'm sure nobody will miss us." She looked at him again and saw how much he wanted her, her lucky dress she thought, gets them every time.
Claudia nodded, then Jack stood up and held his arm out, pulling Claudia up, who was by now, a little more than tipsy.
"Where are you two off to?"
Jack spun around to see Hector staggering over to them, not far away.
