Sophia was leaning against a wall with her hands in her pocket. Her low cut tank top and short shorts fluttered in the wind. She drew her sheer jacket around her torso. She closed her eyes and tilted her face to the sky. She hated her life. What she had to do. What she had to do to survive. All of it was an utter hell for her. Her eyes immediately opened as she heard footsteps in the opening of the alleyway. She stood up and watched as a masculine figure put a shadow on her face.
"Why hello sweet heart." he said as he put his hands on her pale shoulders. Sophia shoved him away.
"No Damon. You aren't paying. I'm here to give you the diamonds. Snitched them off the matron."
"We taught you well little girl." he said, pinching her cheek.

Jackie walked down the sidewalk with her head down and the collar of her black leather jacket turned up, her hands in the pockets. What with all the tension between her and the boys, she had felt like she was suffocating and needed air, so she went out intending to get a motel room and get rid of her problems the way she usually did--drink.
She sighed and waited at a crosswalk beside a narrow alleyway. Normally she didn't need to do it on the job or around the team, she could hold it together, but for the first time... she couldn't. Bastion's problems made her think of Will, and that made her think of what happened after he died--well Drew hadnt helped much with that one. "He'll be lucky if I ever forgive him," she muttered to herself. And then he and Kat had been watching les mis, and she came into the room at that one scene with fauntine...
She shook her head and her ears perked up slightly hearing the conversation from the alley. Jackie cast a cautionary glance over and then she looked at the storefront window of the building bordering the alley in order to stay and hear more when the cross light changed.

Sophie shoved Damon away. "Just leave me alone now, ok? You got what you wanted."
Damon smirked.
"Not exactly love." he said, grabbing her waist and putting a hand over her mouth. "Too good for me, huh?"

Jackie grit her teeth before slipping into the alley. "You know rape just so happens to be illegal," she said slipping into French with the accent.

"Sortez d'ici pois chiche. Je l'ai manipulé. (Get out of here chickpea. I got this handled.)" Sophia said. She smiled at Damon.
"Tes sales pattes de moi. (Get your darn hands off me.)" she said, kicking him where the sun don't shine. Damon gave a shriek and fell to ground in pain. Soph kicked him in the stomach for good measure.
"You're obviously not French. Where are you from?" she asked, walking out of the alley.

'Dammit,' she thought. 'My cover was fine the other day.'
"No need to call me 'chickpea' sweetness," she replied in English. "Just trying to help. But you seem to have it under control." Jackie turned to go.

Soph grabbed the girl's arm. "Hey. And no one calls me sweetness. But, yah know what? For your trouble, how about I buy you a drink?"

Jackie paused. 'I'm supposed to be lying low...' "Not in public."

Soph narrowed her eyes and then smiled. "You in trouble eh? Don't worry. I know a lot of places we could go."

Jackie shrugged lightly, "I'm not one for the large pub atmosphere."

"I know quite a few quiet places too. I mean. Hey. A girl like me has to know." Soph said with a somewhat sad smile.

Jackie shrugged. "Just one drink."

"Well good. It's a couple streets over but it's not that far to walk." she said, starting towards the bar. "So. What brings you to Paris. Obviously you're not a native."

Jackie followed her. "Friends," she shrugged.

Soph shrugged. "France. It has one of the darkest backgrounds, yet everyone seems to look past it and say, oh but it's too beautiful to be such a dark place. So what were you doing back there. It's not exactly where the best people are."
