Another day and another case for the Moonlight Agency.
This was going to be a dull investigation. Aidan knew that. After all what could be fascinating about someone's lost jewelry. The case was simple. Someone stole it. They've already been through lots of cases like that. They were never exciting but they paid their rent.
Aidan entered the hotel followed by Jasper. They stopped in the lounge waiting for the hotel manager. The younger vampire wore his glasses and was looking around curiously tapping his chin with his forefinger.
He knew Jasper stood two steps behind him, analyzing everyone who passed by. This was how hey worked. Aidan would analyze the surroundings and Jasper would analyze the people around the place.

"Welcome to Nex Somnus, how may I help you?" Adia asked from behind the old wooden counter in the corner. Her voice though soft sounded somewhat monotonus from having to repeat the same thing every time someone walked through the doors. Today, fortunately for her, they didn't have much business. Adia didn't even bother to look up from the book she currently had her nose in. If they wanted something then they would come to her.

Jasper was as fascinated as Aidan, which meant not at all. The would rather work on something more interesting and mysterious but they had to accept every or at least almost every case if they wanted to exist on the market.
When they entered the hotel they stopped in the lounge. Jasper knew Aidan was analyzing their surroundings. He sensed that hint of interest in his friend. Jasper wasn't that excited. People around him had very typical emotions. They were either driven by lust or nervously leaving the hotel in a hurry to get there. But no one around them had those sinister emotions that could hint on a thief.
He turned his head when he heard the voice. The girl wasn't even looking at them. She was bored. Jasper could understand that. It didn't look like the most fascinating job in the world.
He stood in the back waiting for Aidan to take over. Kinney was always the one to do the talking

Aidan's head turned at the sound of the girl's voice. He smiled pleasantly and walked to the counter. The girl didn't even look at them. She must have been tired. Her voice sounded as if she kept repeating the same greeting over and over again and would probably start with the same words if woken up in the middle of the night.
When he got closed Aidan noticed she was reading a book. So there was a poor chance she could have noticed anything suspicious but he'd try anyway.
"Good day ma'am. My name is Aidan Kinney and this is my partner Jasper Swift." He said motioning to the blonde vampire behind him. "We're private investigators and we'd like to ask you a few questions"

Adia slowly lifted her gaze from the book, her brown eyes settling on the man that had spoken to her and occasionally drifting over to the blond whom he had called his partner. If he hadn't announced his job title then she would have definitely cracked a gay joke at them. There was still always a chance that she would. She pushed her book to the side and began twirling a strand of hair around her finger, putting on a look of pure innocence. "What ever it is, I swear I didn't do it.."

Aidan glanced at Jasper and smiled. She didn't need to crack a gay joke and he didn't need to know her thoughts to know what she thought. It was quite normal. After all they were both abnormally beautiful so whenever Aidan or Jasper used the word partner they could see the corners of mouths twitch.
"Yes, well, I'm sure you're innocent" He said propping his elbows on the counter. "But maybe you saw something unusual. Maybe someone was acting strange last night?"

Adia followed suit, resting her elbows against the counter and leaning forward with her head cocked to the side. Her eyes still holding the same innocent look even when everything else about her suggested otherwise. She did find these men quite beautiful, especially the blond but this one was a looker too. "Someone acting strange last night?" She repeated, letting out a loud sigh as she consulted the charts. "I'm not sure what you mean by that. Everyone who comes here is rather strange and most are only horny people who are looking for a room to get laid in. Would the two of you like one? You look like you would make a good couple."

Jasper rolled eyes at her silly comments. The girl was really annoying. "Yes, we hear that often" He said impatiently. She was acting as if she had a brain the size of a peanut. And her jokes weren't funny. Besides the fact that she found him attractive was rather annoying. He didn't care about women and he would be happier if they stopped noticing him. He only cared about Alice and his job. And that's why they were here.
"Listen, we're not here to seek comfort or each other's company. Our client has been robbed here last night." He explained slowly as if he was addressing a five year old

Aidan put a hand on Jasper's shoulder. "Jazz, calm down" He murmured. Jasper could often get affected by the emotions around him. That's when he'd get impatient and cold but Aidan suspected this wasn't the right way to get any info from that girl.
He turned back to her and smiled politely. "We're not looking for horny people. Did you notice anyone or anything suspicious? Maybe someone was looking around too much? That could really help us. Maybe someone asked about the woman from room 206?"

Adia leaned back, her bottom lip catching in between her teeth. She knew from experience when people were growing annoyed with her, it was why she didn't have many friends besides her brother. She nodded her head slowly as she consulted the charts again. "I went home early last night so I'm probably not much help, but there was a man in the room across from hers. Room 205. He seemed rather jumpy..but like I said there are many strange people who come through here."

"Room 205. Okay" Aidan repeated. He looked at Jasper and nodded at him. "Could you take a look at it Jazz?" His partner nodded and walked away while Aidan turned back to the girl. So she wasn't even here last night. That would complicate the things a little. Aidan counted on her help.
"Rather jumpy. Interesting." He tapped his chin again. "Could you tell me more about it? Oh, and could you tell me his name?"

Adia's brown eyes followed Jasper's back as he disappeared down the hall before returning her attention back to his partner. She nodded her head, tapping the chart where the man had signed his name. "Peters" She answered, her forehead scrunching together as she tried to remember the details. "He looked to be around his mid-thirties with dark hair and dark eyes. He mostly sat at the bar the whole time I was here. He fidgeted in his seat a lot and his eyes seemed to follow the women that came in.."

"Peters" Aidan nodded. The man sounded like no one he'd ever met before. He'd have to ask their client about him. Maybe she knew him. He had a strange feeling the client was hiding something from them and he hoped Jasper would find something in those two rooms.
Aidan pushed the glasses up the bridge of his nose. "So nothing else is missing? No one lost anything? No one was robbed?" If that Peters was watching women then either he was looking for a good victim or for someone particular

"Things come up missing here all of the time so I wouldn't know." Adia shrugged, her lips pulling down in a frown as the heat rose up into her cheeks. She felt guilty for not having paid more attention to her job. These men already found her annoying and she wasn't much useful. She bowed her head down low, mumbling a soft I'm sorry.

Aidan nodded his head slowly. Even though the hotel looked nice he should have known the place would be a paratise for thieves. He frowned slightly looking at the girl. The faint change in the speed of her heart beat would be inaudible for a human but for him it was very clear. Just like her I'm sorry. "It's alright" he said smiling. "You can't notice everything. After all you were only doing your job and you couldn't know someone would steal something here." He reached into the pocket of his jacket and handed her a business card. "Here's my card. Please contact me if you remember anything else okay?"

Nodding her head, Adia took the business card that was handed to her. Glancing at it briefly before she managed to return her brown eyed gaze back onto the man in front of her. "I will.." She promised almost too quietly to hear. "And I am sorry about my comment before..about the two of you. I can't help it sometimes, it just slips out. Will you tell your partner that I've apologized? I can see that he doesn't like me."

Aidan waved his hand smiling. "Don't worry. Jasper rarely likes anyone. He's a very suspicious type" He explained with a small grimace. "Besides you're not the only one who made that kind of comment. Wedo hear this often. For some strange reason. Even more strange since Jasper is married"

Adia was actually quite surprised by Aidan's statement and she glanced in the direction that the oh so beautiful blond man had disappeared in. He looked too young to be already married, only a little older than herself. But then again kids did stupid things like that all the time now or could even be like in her families case where the parents push to have their children married off before their time. She shook her head to try and wipe the surprised look off of her face and forced a smile. "I'll try not to let it happen again.."

"Thanks" Aidan nodded. He could see how surprised she was with the news about Jasper and the way she looked in the direction he had disappeared in. "Surprising? Yes, I know what you mean. He's so young" He shook his head. Jasper definitely wasn't young but she couldn't know that. "But he found his one and only and..." he shrugged. If Jasper liked that then it was his choice. Aidan loved Alice like a sister but he wasn't so romantic

Adia was also somewhat jealous by this news. He was so young and yet he had already commited himself to his one true love. It wasn't fair, she was eighteen and had yet to have a single serious relationship and that wasn't by choice either. Was only the beautiful so fortunate? "Yes well..could you also offer him my congratulations then? As I don't expect him to come back to speak with me anytime soon..and I'm sure you have better things to do instead of talk to some strange girl all day.."
