Stephanie slowly walked through the doors of a bar downtown, giving a quick glance around before she headed towards the service area. Her five inch heels knocked on the wooden flooring with every step, even over the music and the buzz of people talking, you could hear them and she wasn't exactly hard to miss. The little black dress she was wearing was turning heads all on it's own, showing off her long legs and she definitely knew it was working for her. She got to the service area and leaned her elbows on it, getting the attention of a server who came over and nodded her head in a 'what's up' manner, prompting her to order a drink.

"Hi, could I get a club soda please? Extra lime." She smiled at the server as she nodded, grabbing her a tall glass and putting a little ice in before pouring her a vodka and adding a dash of lime cordial as well as a lime wedge. She slid the drink over to her and Stephanie put down some cash. "Tip yourself the change."

"Bend over and stick your ass out a little more."

"Shut up."

"Do it."

She let out a little sigh. "Fine. Happy?" She leaned forward, sticking her ass out and waiting for Lloyd to respond.

"He's locked on to you. Turn around and make eye contact with him, he's at your two with the blue shirt."

She turned around and scanned the bar, deliberately starting on the opposite end of the bar so it didn't look too obvious, she had no idea where Lloyd was, she didn't really care and the less she could see of him, the better. He would only put her off and she didn't want to blow this, there was three million riding on it and the job had to be done tonight. Her eyes moved through the faces until she laid eyes on the man she'd had to sift through over fifty pictures of. The second she looked at him, she smiled at him then looked away, sipping on her drink and she casually looked back at him before she turned back around to face the bar.

"He's heading over, keep it flirty and get him to leave with you."

Stephanie let out a harsh sigh, flipping her thick wavy blow out over her left shoulder and she deliberately stuck her ass out again, until she felt someone stand next to her and she glanced at the man who had approached. She said nothing, instead she just let her eyes wonder over his torso before she looked at the bar, wanting to get the servers attention so she could get another drink.

"Hi."

"Hi," she smiled and waved the server over.

"What's your name?" He gave her a smoulder and she pursed her lips at him for a moment, he was definitely checking her out and the dress she was wearing was absolutely helping the situation. As well as the twelve hour sleep she had taken, and not to mention the make up artist that Lloyd had insisted on.

"My name?"

"Lie."

"Yes, your name." He grinned.

"Mallory."

"You fucking douche!"

"You don't look like a Mallory," he chuckled. "But it's ok, I like surprises and that has surprised me."

"What does a Mallory look like?"

He shrugged. "I don't know, like someone with fake tits, lip fillers and a resting bitch face."

"Funnily enough, I know another Mallory and she's exactly that." Stephanie laughed and reached out to touch his arm for a moment, she knew men like him liked to have his biceps touched by women. He wasn't her type at all, but she would pretend because she was literally getting paid for this. "And your name?"
