Before Nick could come up with a coherent answer to Selena's question, the door handle jingled, signaling the appearance of an unknown.
"Crap," Selena gasped quietly, her pulse quickening as she struggled to figure out what to do. "Here, go!" she shooed, nudging Nick out into the darkness of the world again. She closed the door behind her and hurried to open the one that was jiggling with great force.
Her hand clicked back the lock and she swung it open, revealing a very agitated Lacy. Lacy smoothed down her flyaways and stepped into the room, her bodyguard standing closeby.
"How have you been?" Lacy asked carefully, her beady eyes scanning the room. Given the circumstances, Selena had not had time to cover up Nick's tracks.
The rose was half hidden in the blankets of Selena's bed and the room smelled strongly of Nick's signature cologne.
"Okay," Selena responded nonchalantly, her heart racing as she realized the state the room was in. She gulped, and managed a small smile. "My bruises are getting—"
"Get back to work as soon as possible," Lacy said, her cold voice resounding throughout the room. She immediately turned on her heel and headed out the door, shutting it firmly behind her.
As Selena breathed a sigh of relief and went to let Nick back in, Lacy was strutting down the halls, her blood boiling.
"She's up to something," Lacy suspected, laying her suspicions all on her bodyguard. "I know she is. That room smelled of a boy."

"That was close," Selena said quietly, the adrenaline pumping through her body.
"Yeah," Nick agreed, his mind still wrapped around how to answer Selena's question. He had spent all the time outside trying to come up with an answer that didn't sound completely shallow nor give away his case. Hopefully she would completely forget that she had asked.
"That was completely.. exhilarating!" Selena breathed, a hint of hilarity in her voice. "But we can never get into the situation ever again!" she laughed, sounding almost insane.
"Yeah," Nick voiced a second time, still deep in thought. He immediately realized he was acting distant and sobered up, adding more 'umph' into his voice. "No more late night meetings?"
Selena glanced up at him, and laughed. "For now."
The night passed on and not once had Selena brought up that question again. Nick was somewhat relieved; he would talk about the matter when he felt it was necessary. And he hoped that wouldn't be any time soon.

Nick walked out of Selena's room, back up the alleyway, and entered the brothel through the main entrance. He was craving for a good old glass of hard liquor to squelch his thirst. He settled himself into a bar stool and smiled as a familiar face entered his vision.
"Well, how about it? Mr. Nick has finally returned to my little old establishment?" Mia teased, drying her hands on a hand towel. "Well, what'll it be tonight? A regular beer?" Mia was going to reach for the bottle before Nick interrupted her.
"I want something stronger... much stronger," Nick added, his mind swimming.
"Hm," Mia said as she started to prepare his drink. "Something happen? Girl problems?" Mia concluded, her eyebrows slightly wagging as Nick let slip a smile.
"Possibly," Nick mused, leaning his head against his propped up hand as he tapped his fingers against the marble counter. "You know, I've never asked, but how's your life?"
"Oh, you know, being around drunks and whores, it's a blast!" Mia replied sarcastically. Nick's heart thumped as he registered the fact that Mia had just called Selena a whore.
"I was kidding," Mia added quickly, noticing the change in Nick's expression. "Merely kidding." Mia placed a glass in front of Nick and he immediately snatched it up, taking a few gulps. He ignored the burn of the new alcohol in his system and gave out a satisfied burp.
"Woah," a different female's voice said from behind him. "Impressive."
Nick turned his head slgithly to find who the voice's owner was.
"Leave the man alone, Demi," Mia groaned, her head shaking slightly at the girl's abrasive manner. "You like married men, go look for them!"
"Fiesty," Demi snarled at Mia, then averted her attention to Nick. She took the stool beside Nick, sneakily inching it closer to Nick. "Hi, I'm Demi," she added seductively, slightly batting her long, painted eyelashes. Her vibrant lips pushed themselves out into a slight pout, attempting to make herself seem as attractive as possible.
