Alexandra sat at the bar, a glass of whiskey sitting in her right hand as she stared off into space. Sculling the rest of her drink, she placed it back on the table before motioning to the bartender wanting another one.

"Xavier..." Alexandra greeted as the black haired man walked up to her from behind the bar. He sent her a sickening smile that made her shiver.

"Afternoon Alexa." Xavier greeted in return. He poured another glass of whiskey for the witch before leaning against the bar. Alexandra picked up the drink and sculled it again, this was gonna be a long afternoon.

"Haven't seen you in a hot minute." Alexandra commented. Xavier hummed in agreement as he poured another round for her. She knew what he was doing, trying to get her drunk but Alexandra was to smart for that. Instead of picking it up like she had the last time, she left it sitting there.

"Well I've been around. In the bayou and here, working. What about yourself? Haven't seen you in a...very hot minute." Xavier replied his eyes racking down my body before meeting her stare. Alex rolled her eyes at his sexual comment.

"I've been around. In the cemetery, and not here...trying to avoid everywhere you are." Alexandra stated. Xavier growled possessively before Marcel walked over and sat down next to me. He glared harshly at Xavier before checking her over to ensure she wasn't hurt.

"Xavier, don't you have customers to serve?" Marcel asked. The unknown werewolf rolled his eyes. He sent Alexandra one last look before moving down the bar to another customer. Alexandra signed out a breathe of relief and smiled at Marcel.

"Thank you." Alexandra nodded. Marcel returned her smile before Alex stood up and walked over to Cami. She could still feel Xavier's eyes on her but she just ignored him.

"Afternoon Cami, got a test coming up?" Alexandra asked. Cami looked up from her books and nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, a big one. I got to get in all the study I can, while trying to run Rousseau's." Cami answered, worry and stress laced in her voice. Alexandra placed her hand over the top of Cami's and smiled.

"If you need a hand running Rousseau's let me know, I'd be more then willing to help you." Alexandra expressed. Cami smiled and nodded in thanks.

"I could use some help now, if you have time?" Cami asked. Alexandra nodded. She looked over and noticed Niklaus and Marcel speaking. Alexandra signed as Cami started packing up. They made their way to the entrance when Niklaus stood up and blocked their path. 

"Excuse me, love. What's that you're studying?" Niklaus asked as Cami's eyes widened not expecting to be spoken to. Alexandra bit her lip from making a snarky comment.

"Abnormal psychology." Cami answered as she looked Niklaus up and down with a smirk. Alex chuckled and Cami glanced at her with a smile.

"Abnormal psychology, well. Perhaps you could help me diagnose my friend over here. He's been a little bit depressed, can't keep his mind off a girl. He tells me she's a queen, fit for a king. I think he should cut his losses and move on. What's your professional opinion?" Niklaus explained as he lead Cami over to the table where he and Marcel were sitting. Marcel smiled shyly as Niklaus patted his hand.

"Be a nice guy, and maybe the opportunity will present itself some day." Cami answered honestly, a flirtations smile placed on her lips. Marcel returned it before Cami turned around and walked back to the door.

"How about tonight, nine o'clock? I'll meet you right here?" Marcel asked standing up making Cami pause by the entryway. Alexandra chuckled as he tried shooting his shot.

"I'll take it under consideration." Cami says with a smirk before opening the door. She walks out holding the door for Alexandra, when she pauses.

"How about you Alexa? Tonight, your favorite Italian place down the road?" Xavier called out. Everyone turned their heads finding the call out kind of romantic. Alexandra turned her head towards him and scoffed.
