(01/01) Nick and LaCroix were pouting in the Raven sitting at a table across from each other with frowns on their faces. "Have you heard from Nat?" Nick suddenly asked. "At all?!" LaCroix looked up. "I have not heard from Miss Lambert nor seen her around here. Have you seen your partner?" Nick lifted an eyebrow. "No," he replied picking up the glass of blood in front of him and taking a sip. "I believe I haven't seen you taste any of the vintages I am offering here.. ever..." LaCroix trailed off regarding Nick with an awkward look. "There's a first for everything," Nick barked back. "What's biting you?!" LaCroix asked sharply. Nick gave flashed him a look of anger. "It's an expression Nicholas, don't get so up tight about it..." LaCroix calmed. "It seems every Friday night for the last four weeks, both Nat and my partner have disappeared into the shadows never to be heard from till the next day," Nick noticed. "So?" LaCroix asked. "You're not out in the day anyway." "But where do they go.. they are all.. cheery the next morning.. They work all week long except for Friday night, and on Saturday, both of them are...." "On Cloud Number Nine?" LaCroix asked. "Exactly," Nick acknowledged. "What are they doing?!" LaCroix shrugged and took another sip. "I don't know..." "Do I need to..." Nick thought of ways to get Natalie back. "Don't even talk to me about *that*!" LaCroix finished Nick off. "You have your own ways, I have mine.." "Bringing Tracy across is not the answer," Nick grumbled. LaCroix shot a *look* at Nicholas then chugged down the glass of blood. The door to the Raven was flung open and Vachon quickly stepped in. "You're not going to believe this guys..." Vachon started. "What?" Nick asked standing up. Vachon sat down in one of the chairs. "I just saw Natalie and Tracy." LaCroix shuffled in his chair and looked at Vachon. "Where?" "You wouldn't believe me if I told you..." "Vachon's just went to get some food for us..." Tracy explained. Natalie smiled. "I'm starving!" "Ladies.. I'm su'ure u're 'ungry, and 'm starvin' too..." Natalie and Tracy snuggled up closer to the carouche. "Oh.. you're a darlin'" Tracy giggled. "And cute!" Natalie exclaimed. LaCroix looked intensely at Vachon as he grumbled on about walking to the super market to find garlic hanging everywhere and no way to get cash. "Vachon, is there any point to this story?" LaCroix asked. "Hold your horses, LaCroix!" he yelled back. Vachon went on about how he needed cash desperately and went down to visit his old pal, Screed and how he saw the two girls with him. Nick spat out his blood wine when he heard Vachon mention Natalie's name. "WHAT?!" he exclaimed. "They are with Screed?" LaCroix shuddered. "Eww.. no wonder Tracy lips felt.. a little.. softer.." Natalie and Tracy starting snuggling Screed again giggling as the carouche was telling jokes about the rat crossing the road. The three were having fun with barrels of laughter. All this was going on.. while in the Raven night club it was unusually silent, with three guys speechless with horror. ~End~ I'm sorry if my Screed speak was so horrible that you had to die while reading this fanfic. I'm sorry.. I'm sorry!!!
