Chapter 2
Vic's head whirled as he struggled to come up with a plausible story from the limited information he had.
'I... um, thought you looked... familiar,' he mumbled.
She looked at him coldly, 'Not a problem, it happens all the time. I'm sure you've heard of me. Valerie Wayne, I've been up and down every catwalk that matters. And you are?'
'Victor Sage, I'm a reporter for the Gotham Times and I'm here to interview a Mr Yuri Alexsandrov.' The situation was making slightly more sense.
'That would be me,' said the blonde, whose hands were crawling back onto Helena, no Valerie's body. 'And I am not doing interviews tonight. Go ask my father. I know nothing about politics. I am only here in America for the women.' His looked hungrily at Helena, a leer on his face. Helena flushed as he started nibbling her ear, leaving Vic to fill the awkward lapse in conversation. Vic knew better than to blow Helena's cover, but that didn't mean he felt comfortable watching another man move his hands all over his girlfriend.
Yuri finally seemed to remember him. He removed his face from Helena's neck long enough to mutter 'Goodbye, now.'
Helena followed suit. 'It was nice meeting you, uh... Vincent,' she said, shaking Vic's hand. She returned to Yuri and the two of them walked away.
Vic looked down at the piece of paper she'd slipped him. She'd better have a good explanation for this.
sorry this is really short. i actually wrote it with chapter 1 but i didnt publish because i couldn't resist having the awesome cliffhanger.
