"Excuse me, I'm supposed to do what?!" Rory looked at Roy with an incredulous look. Did he really just ask her to do that?

"We need you to go in undercover, and seduce your way into this guy's, Alexis, inner circle," he explained again. 

Rory dropped her pizza in shock, they really wanted her flirt her way in. "Why the hell are you asking me?" 

"Well, the rest of us are busy or don't have your complexion," Jason commented, as he pulled the string of cheese into his mouth.

"My complexion? What the fuck is that supposed to mean?" Rory waved her hands, the piece of pizza still in her hands. "What do I have that you all don't?"

"Well first off, Kori is orange and Artemis is too tall. It's said he likes smaller women and by default that goes to you." Roy explained as he leaned against Jesse who had his arm around him. 

Rory turned her gaze back on Jason. "You knew, this is why you asked me to come and I'm willing to bet the Queen fortune that Tim doesn't know." she glared at Jason who finished one piece only to grab two more and eat them.

"If I had told you before now, you would have mentioned it to him and you would not have come," he admitted. Rory scoffed and threw her slice of pizza at him. Oddly enough, he caught it and waved it at her. "Always so violent, but you fit the perfect description for this guy's taste." 

Rory frowned and grabbed a new piece. "Let me guess, small and rich? Need I remind you that I have not left this apartment because of the fact that I don't want Aurora Queen to be seen in Paris, France the city of love, with another guy that is not her boyfriend?" 

"That's the best part, he digs blondes," Jesse said with a wink.

Rory looked between the group of people with her and let out a groan. "I swear, one of you will be the death of me," she muttered.

"For the record, dying is not that great. Ten out of ten, do not recommend." Jason said, leaning back against the couch.

Looking to her left, Rory saw that there was an empty can of soda. "Fuck you Todd." she snapped and threw it at his head, again. Jason didn't see this one coming and it bounced off his forehead with a ding as the can clattered to the floor.

He turned to look at her as she flipped him off. "Are you ever going to stop throwing things at my head? First the apple, then the pizza and now this?" 

"I don't know princess, are you ever going to stop being an idiot?" she responded with a grin.

"Rory, you threw an apple at his head?" Artemis asked, watching the interaction between the two. 

"Yeah she did, you want to know why?" Jason grinned. 

Rory got up and dove at Jason. "One more word out of you and I will sew your mouth shut!" Jason moved out of the way quickly, Rory following after him as she jumped on his back knocking him to the floor. 

Jason managed to catch her, but not before he fell on his chest with Rory on his back and pinning him to the ground. "Either I'm getting better, or you are getting worse princess." she grinned and got off his back. Jason rolled over and glared. 

"Again, you are one of the most violent people I know. How the hell did replacement fall for you again?" he asked, rubbing his neck.

"I've been asking myself that since we started dating." Rory chuckled and helped him up to his feet. Jason rolled his eyes and muttered something under his breath that Rory didn't catch. She quickly turned to look at him with a glare. 

"What did you say?" she demanded.

Jason shook his head. "Nothing."

Rory rolled her eyes and picked her phone up and threw her plate away. "I'm going to bed, I'll see you guys in the morning." she waved them goodnight and walked down to her room and shut the door. Tim was due to call any minute anyway so she wanted to be alone so she could actually talk to him.
