Ohhhh and I don't own Night World unfortunately :)
As he moved around the corner and out of the petite blondes sight,
Jack Carter leaned back against the wall. He glanced down at the floor
as a small smirk lingered on his lips. Wow, he was good, he thought as
he shook his head a little. He lifted his chin and ran a hand through
his messy dark hair. Connor would be pleased, he thought, And this
would all be over soon enough. He had managed to convince her he
didn't know anything about her and he never really thought of himself
as a good actor, though he had been told he was a good liar.
Smirking at the thought, Jack shook his head and stood up straight
again. "Piece of cake," He muttered to himself with a grin before
peeking around the corner and glancing around for Stacey.
Crap! Where did she go? Frowning, Jack scanned the busy streets of the
town but saw no sigh of the girl he had just met. Nice one Jack, he
thought sarcastically as he rolled his eyes before shoving his hands
in his pockets and moving forward. Surely he would find her soon, how
hard could it be?
After about an hour of searching for Stacey Skylark, Jack gave up and
wiped a hand across his forehead. He moved to a high stool in the
local bar and sat down, leaning his head in his hands. It seemed
finding her again was harder than he thought. He knew all about her
past, which would help him get inside her head, which is what he knew
he needed to do. He had to convince her he was a good guy and that she
could trust him. Now he knew that would be harder that it sounded.
Getting up again, Jack began to move out of the bar and down the path.
He turned a corner and -because he wasn't watching where he was going-
knocked hard into someone's shoulder.
"Oi, watch it," The slender blonde haired boy muttered and Jack let a
smirk play over his lips. "Oh yeah?" He said with a raised eyebrow,
"And your gunna make me are you blondie?" He taunted as the boy threw
him a dark look. Jack simply chuckled at his reaction, deciding he
needed a bit of entertainment. And so winding up this human would
defiantly do be amusing.
It was only after he was shoved forcefully backwards that Jack
realized this guy wasn't human. No, he was much too strong and to be a
Night person. Stumbling backwards, Jack quickly regained his balance
and narrowed his eyes a little, his gaze darkening as he moved
forward, the fight ready to break out. Jack shoved the boy back but he
was quick and moved out the way, so instead Jack made a more direct
approached and pushed him roughly up against the wall, his hands around
the blonde's throat.
"Any last words?" Jack smirked as he watched the guys eyes darken;
unaware of the worried looks they were getting from passing humans.
"Hey! Get the Hell off of him!"
Jack was caught off guard as he heard the familiar female voice and he
bit down on his lip. He didn't look back, but he knew who it was.
Looking back at the blonde boy in front of him, realization began to
hit Jack. And then he saw the Black Iris tattoo on the boy's wrist. He
was a Skylark, more precisely he was Robbie Skylark, Stacey's cousin.
Moving back away from Robbie Jack let out a frustrated groan and
turned to see Stacey stood a little way from them, looking on with a
look of anger on her face.
Good one Jack, he thought sarcastically as he made a mental eye roll.
This was just great. Beating up Stacey's cousin was a great way to get
on her good side. Connor wouldn't be pleased about this one bit.
Stacey's dark eyes seemed to burn into him as she glared before pulling
her gaze away from him and back to her cousin. "C'mon Rob," She
muttered as she took his arm and began pulling him away, Robbie still
looking like he might pounce at Jack at any moment. But Jack wasn't
worried about that. He could handle the blonde, but he may have just
blown it for getting Stacey's trust.
Review Pleasee!
