Marie had been up since just after noon that day. She tried to keep herself busy, so that the day wouldn't drag by in her excitement for night to come. And yet, she still found herself looking at the clock every five minutes. Most of the day she spent painting, finishing one small painting and starting work on a second. She made a call an art dealer who had been helping her sell her paintings, and made arrangements to have it delivered for sale. After a late supper she started to get ready for her meeting with Anya and Neil. Marie started with her hair, putting in a few curlers and letting them set while she picked out what she would wear that night. A blue and purple dress, with the same black heeled boots she wore the night before. She would have preferred to wear a nice classy pair of heels for a meeting, but seeing as the meeting as at a club, where was always the concern of broken glass accidentally getting into her shoe. Within an hour she had finished getting ready, her hair falling in loose curls down her back, clothed in her favorite dress, and a purse packed with everything she would need for such a meeting. A small sketch book, pencils, a small photo album of her previous works, along with her wallet, phone and such.
Ready and with butterflies running rampage inside of her, Marie left the residence and called a taxi to bring her to Vice. After having to wait in the line up outside for maybe a half hour, Marie was finally able to walk through the door. She left her jacket with coat check and made her way over to the bar. She smiled, seeing that Neil was sitting by the bar as well. "Well hello there." Marie greeted, as she slid into the chair next to him.

"Good evening, Marie." Neil smiled as he saw the young artist. "How has your day been? Would you like a glass of wine?" The vampire was hoping to keep Marie distracted long enough that Mahlah would leave, even though the dhamphir had been out so long that Anya would demand it stay.

"It's been...long." Marie admitted with a giggle, turning in her seat to face Neil. "Honestly I've been that excited for tonight that I was watching the clock all day. Even painting couldn't distract me enough for make time go faster." Marie twirled a lock of her hair around her finger slowly as she talked, adjusting her purse so that it was seated on her lap. "How has your day been? And how has Anya and Mahlah been?" Marie returned with a smile. At Neil's offer for a glass of wine, Marie smiled again and nodded, "I would love one thanks."

"They've been fine. Mahlah was missing until earlier today, and I'm not looking forward to asking it where it was." Neil thanked the bartender as she delivered Marie's wine.
"Anya's been looking forward to you getting here, and later tonight there's going to be a band playing here."

Marie thanked the bartender as well, and took up her glass of wine when it was handed to her. She took a small sip, savoring the flavor as it slid don her throat. A different wine from the night before, but still quite good.
"Mahlah was missing?" Marie asked curiously. She wondered what could have happened. From what she gathered of the strange person, it didn't seem like something someone would want to be out on their own. "May I ask where Anya is? I've been looking forward to seeing her as well. Though, I suppose I'll see her when we start the meeting yes?" Marie took another small sip of her wine, "A band hm? Makes me glad I didn't make any other plans for the night."

Neil took a sip of his wine.
"Mahlah arrived a few minutes before you did. It and Anya are in the back. If you want, I can take you, and you, Anya and I can discuss the painting privately."

Zen put on his usual black attire which consists of black pants and whatever shirt was clean. Today the clean shirt happen to be a turtle neck with buckles hanging off. After pulling on his black goth boots, he pulled out his cell and made a few calls. His band mates all agreed to meet at Vice instead of meeting up at his new apartment. Checking one last time in the mirror to make sure everything was good enough, he pushed emo glasses on and grabbed his helmet, making his way to the club.
Excitement and adrenaline was pumping through Zens veins as he arrived. It didn't take long for everyone to meet up and make their way in. Once inside Zen made his way to the bar, guitar case strapped to his back.

Neil smiled, but he was distressed by the newest appearance at the bar. He was hoping to get Marie alone to minimize on distractions.
"You must be the musician playing here tonight. Hello. My name's Neil." Neil extended his hand to the man. "I don't believe we've properly met."

Marie turned in her seat for a moment to face out towards the dance floor, her wine glass at hand. It was during this time that she noticed the same man she saw the night before. She grinned and winked, noticing that he had a guitar with him tonight. One of the member of the band perhaps? "You must be part of the band I heard was playing here tonight." Marie more stated then asked, smiling sweetly. "Good luck." She would definitely need to stay after the meeting now and listen in.
Turning back to Neil, Marie took another sip of her wine and nodded, "That sounds great." She agreed, allowing him to lead the way to the office.

While Zen was leaning against the bar, he heard Neil speaking to him. With a boyish grin he extended his hand out, “Hello, I must apologize for being so rude last night. I honestly didn't see you in the room.” After the brief shake he noted another familiar person next to him. Zen smiled at the girl from before. She certainly looked just as beautiful from last night. All he could do was smile back and nod. “Will you be watching?” he asked as he tilted his head to the side.

Marie hopped down from her seat as she waited for Neil to escort her to the office. She kept a hand on her purse which hung at her side, not wanting to loose her small portfolio should someone decide to play thief. The other things inside she was less concerned about. She faced Zen, smiling playfully once again. "Depends...I have a meeting with the owners right now...but if that doesn't take too long I might just have to stick around." She answered."Look for me front and center k?"

"No, it's no problem at all. I was getting hungry, I was about to step out anyway." Neil smiled at the musician.
"But I must warn you, this is a very discerning audience." he lied. "Show a single weak point, and they'll pounce. Like sharks, or a rabbit."
He turned to Marie. "Shall we go, Miss Marie?"

Zen nodded his head and smiled, “I will be watching.” He winked at Marie then glanced back at Neil, tilting his head at what he advised. “Well that would certainly be interesting then,” he said as his smile turned into a grin. He always likes challenges and it may seem that this crowd will be very challenging.

Marie turned to Neil when he announced that he was ready to go. "Yes of course." Marie answered politely with a smile. She took a moment to toss the locks of her hair over her shoulder, and smooth out the skirt of her dress before she would be presented to the owner of the club. Though Anya had already met her, she did want to make a good second impression.
"I'll see you around." She said to Zen with a little wave of her hand, before turning to follow Neil to the office.
