She sipped her milkshake, trying extremely hard not to appear bored out of her mind. Riley was an extremely nice guy. The influence of her powers only made that worse. At this point she was pretty sure nothing she would say or do could chase him off. It was exactly where she wanted him to be. 

[color=82ca9d]"And there's the hiking trail up the mountains, we could have like a fun picnic there. Or or we can go to the pool. Not the pool at the Youth Center obviously but..."[/color]

[color=palevioletred]"Actually Riley you know what would be really fun?"[/color]

Riley's heart raced at the opportunity to please the dream date in front of him. He hung onto her words and gestures like a bee on a flower. Riley leaned in closer, eager to please. The girl smirked and intertwined her fingers with his. A hit of pheromones rippled into his senses. He shuddered and his pupils dilated for a few seconds. 

[color=palevioletred]“I’d love for you to pick me up some sunscreen. It’s a particular brand, I’ll text you the specifics”[/color]

Riley immediately rushed to stand up, knocking his chair back. He apologized to the waitress and turned back to his date.
[color=82ca9d]“Totally I can get you anything you want, I’ll be back before you know it.”[/color]

[color=palevioletred]“Oh but before you go, let’s take a selfie together.”[/color]

She didn’t have to say that twice. He put his face next to hers and smiled like a goof. The girl waved him goodbye. Once he was out the door of the Hotspot she immediately dropped her facade. She waved the waitress over to clear the table while she was busy on her phone. 

[color=palevioletred][i]“New victim coming in hot. He’ll be there in about an hour, or actually make that two”

She texted the picture to her client. Riley was the last in the string of guys. Once she delivered him to Kobra about 80% of this job was done. 

[color=pink]“Excuse me Miss…”[/color]

The girl blatantly ignored the waitress, already browsing through multiple of her favorite shops on her phone. 

[color=Pink]“Miss I wanted to ask if you could swap tables….”[/color]

She sighed and put down her phone. 

[color=Palevioletred]“Excuse me? Why would I do that?”[/color]

The waitress stayed friendly with a smile plastered onto her annoying face. 
[color=Pink]“We have a pregnant customer and she’s sitting close to the kitchen. The smells might be making her nauseous. Your table is the farthest from the kitchen.”[/color]

The girl looked anything but pleased. Her left eyebrow was arched lightly and her lips were pursed into a dissatisfied pout. 

[color=Pink]“I can throw in a free milkshake for the trouble.”[/color]

[color=Palevioletred]“No, milkshakes make me fat. Just get me some lemon water.”[/color] She huffed and grabbed her purse. 

When she sat down at Ja and Kassy’s old table she got right back onto her phone…..until Mateo walked in. He walked at a relaxed pace and scooted onto the seat across from her. He leaned in attempting to kiss her cheek but she pushed his face away with an open palm, not even looking up from her phone. 

[color=khaki]“Djeez, what’s that for..?”[/color] Mateo asked, feeling the slight sting of rejection. 

[color=Palevioletred]“For not doing your job like I asked.”[/color] As if to prove her point he caught sight of Zach over at the Team’s table, he leaned back in his seat and winked.

[color=khaki]“I texted you everything he told me.”[/color]

[color=Palevioletred]“Exactly, you didn’t find me anything useful. Do I have to do everything myself?”[/color]
When she finally looked up she shot a poisonous look at Ja and Kassy. Mateo followed her gaze and raised his brows in confusion. 
[color=Khaki]“What’s up with them?”[/color]

[color=Palevioletred]“Apparently you get special service around here when you’re pregnant.”[/color]

Mateo chuckled.
[color=Khaki]“Maybe you should try then, I volunteer”[/color]

[color=Palevioletred]"Ha...ha.."[/color]
She laughed sarcastically and leaned in closer. 
[color=Palevioletred]“You’re almost funny…”[/color] She said while trying to decide if she would kiss him or empty the glass of lemon water over his head.  
[color=Palevioletred]"I'm not going to disfigure myself and be stuck with some annoying kid the rest of my life. No thanks. I hate kids."[/color]
She glanced at Kassy, a smug smile on her face. 
[color=Palevioletred]"Though I'm pretty with her you won't even be able to tell that she's pregnant."[/color]

At Ja’s and Kassy’s able the waitress offered them cold ginger tea and a plate of various dry crackers.
