She was at it again.

Coming home at two in the morning, half wasted out of her mind as she stumbled into the hide out. Scarpetta still had the nice expensive bottle in her hand as she made her way to the kitchen to get some food and maybe some water. She was giggling,but at the same time she was pretty pissed that Fujiko had ditched her with that rich pig. He had made an attempt to make a move on her, but she put a stop to that. Lupin or the others were no where to be seen so Scarpetta figured that they were still out.

For whatever reason she could see why since all of them were surrounded by money, women and of course booze. She was kind of jealous since her date had practically ditched her, but what was she expecting? It's not like they were dating at all, they were just friends. She couldn't help but feel over protective of the males and sometimes Fujiko. She decided that a small piece of cake was good enough and she scarfed the slice as she began to drink again.

She was still stuck in the stupid dress and decided that taking it off would be a good option. She tried to reach for the zipper, but something had caught her attention when she tried. She jumped back as she practically knocked herself over to get away from whatever had just touched her.

" Need help princess? "

She stayed on the ground, holding the bottle for dear life as if she was about to use it on the person. It took her a few minutes to recognize the voice She was about to get up, but she was pulled up by her arm. She gasped as she dropped the bottle on the ground and looked at the person through her bangs.

" Jigen? "She asked. " What the hell are you doing?! "

She was being harsh in the way he had helped her up from the ground and pulled her arm back.

" Getting home a bit late, don't you think? " He said, smirking.

" Oh please, you and Fujiko ditched me at the party, so I don't want to hear about it."

His smirked turned into a pressed line as she moved away from him and decided to go upstairs to her room. She didn't have time for Jigen's snarky attitude or his comments. She didn't want to see anyone until breakfast was made. IT would probably be a bit awkward considering certain events took place at the party, but if she was hungry enough she would get the food. She kicked her shoes off, took off her dress and put on more comfortable clothing.

Her moment of isolation was disrupted when Jigen walked in, but he looked somewhat amused. She raised an eyebrow, but she was a bit wary of him by this point.

" Can I help you? "

" I just wanted to know if you still have my shirt. "

She looked at him, a bit confused but she knew what he was talking about.

" Yeah, it's in the closet. Don't worry I washed it so it should be-

" Put it on. "

Scarpetta blinked at him.

" I beg your pardon? " She scoffed. " Who the hell do you think you are? "

" Well I can always help you put it on. "

" W-what did you say!"
