My entire meeting with Elizabeth was normal. By normal I mean it was like any other client I have we talked through the evidence against her I told her what I'm going to do in order to reduce her sentence in this case she's taking a guilty plea so all I need to do is negotiate a deal with the prosecutors so she spends as little time behind bars as possible I made some notes she asked me some typical formal questions then she left.

That's how it should be, but since meeting Rosaline I've realised although it should be like that just a boring routine I'm now craving more Rosaline excites me unlike any other person has done which I haven't experienced  so whilst I was sat with Elizabeth I couldn't help myself from thinking all about Rosaline about our bizarre meeting but also about whoever's messing with me that I'm pretty sure is her which should bother me but I don't feel bothered by it I feel flattered which I know is wrong on so many levels but a part of me wonders whilst I'm sat thinking about her is she doing the same about me....

It's Friday night so like I always do I sit in front of my TV with a large glass of red wine and some sushi which usually I love after a full week of work but  I feel myself becoming bored.
The TV show isn't doing anything for me just annoying background noise, the food tastes mediocre everything feels like a huge amount of slow nonsense.
Picking my wine up I take a large sip finishing it before placing it down, then using my chopsticks to grab a large mouthful of sushi after I've done that I decide tonight I'm going out. I need to go out.
I need to seriously let of some steam before I end up just thinking about her all night which could lead to me making some very bad choices.

I'm a very self aware type of person but that weariness seems to be faltering every time that girl comes into my mind.
I feel myself going slightly crazy every time I think about how good she smelt today, that scent.
Vanilla.
Picking up my phone I open my messages sending of a text message to some 'friends' that I know will be out tonight so I ask if I can join.

My phone immediately pings with replies saying that they all can't wait for me to join and the location of the first bar we'll be going to I recognise the name instantly it's one of those places where people go to look like they are important when in fact there not it's a place which is exclusive to certain people. I was given a membership a couple of years ago in all the time since I've had the membership I've not even been once. Sighing I pour myself one last glass of wine before dragging myself upstairs to get ready.

Opening my wardrobe I look through a few options pulling out some dresses and pulling them up to my body to showcase to myself.
I end up going for this white Saint Laurent simple backless satin dress that I'll pair with my black Chanel bag and just some black heels.
Simple but when my hair and makeup's done I'm sure I'll look just like I belong with all the materialistic wannabes tonight.

Once I'm all ready I take a quick picture of myself in my mirror uploading it to my Instagram story just to show all my followers that I have some sort of social life, over the years I've gained quite a big following on social media as I've got a reputation for succeeding with all the cases I'm given. So uploading on my story although I find it tedious is necessary when keeping up my image. As soon as it's uploaded I get a few messages from people asking for outfit details I just roll my eyes sickened by how much people actually are bothered about other peoples life's, I see that Hugo has also sent me a message reacting to my story with a silly emoji I'll definitely be ignoring that message.

I'm about to switch my phone of but a message catches my eye in my inbox that I immediately click on it's a reaction with just a simple message that reads 'behave' then followed by a rose emoji. I click onto the account who sent it but it has no username or any photos just a plain profile.
A ghost.

I might be completely insane at this point but the rose is what caught my eye is she playing with me again or is it some random person who likes that emoji who accidentally sent me a message but even so why tell me to behave? Let's say for arguments sake Rosaline or whoever this person is sent me that message then it's a warning telling me to be behaved tonight.
I put my phone in my bag frustrated at how much this is all getting to me I need to find out who is bothering me and if it is who I think not only will I stop being her lawyer she'll find out what happens to people who push me to far. It may be flattering but it's distracting me from everything I should be doing.
