The jukebox was waging a losing battle against the escalating din from the patrons as the night wore on. Cigarette smoke hung in a stinging haze, mingling with the yeasty smell of spilled beer. Slouching against the bar, Nicholai Carter used his thumbnail to peel the label off a long-necked bottle as his steel blue eyes scanned the room. It was July in New York, and the dripping air conditioner that wheezed over the barroom door was as hopelessly outmatched as the jukebox. Life never seemed to stand still for anyone. The twenty-five year old cop had learned that the hard way. A few years ago, he had faked his own death just to bring a criminal to justice. Of course, he had good reason to do it. The lives of his family had been at stake. Being the only man in his family, since his father had died, life had been hard on them. He had four sisters and a mother that had needed his protection. He had been married once, but like most marriages it hadn't lasted. They had gotten a divorce, but that was life. Now, here he was at the bar, just trying to relax from a hard day of working. But, he never seemed able to completely relax. He had on a casual gray t-shirt and black jeans. Though, the only non-casual thing he had on, was his cowboy boots. His gleaming, depthless brown hair that verged on black, was neatly combed through. The steel blue of his eyes, that were tempered by long, sinfully lush lashes, continued to scan the room every once in a while. It was almost as if he was waiting for someone.

Steel blue gaze swept over each person that entered into the bar. His gaze landing on a rather attractive woman. Though, it wasn't long before he turned his gaze back towards the door. Sure, he thought she was attractive. But, his job was dangerous and he wasn't sure he was ready for another attempt at a fail relationship. Though, that didn't stop him. He stood up from the bar and made his way towards the door, as if ready to leave, but he stopped. To be honest, for once in his life, he didn't know what to say to a woman; her.

She didn't really notice anyone was looking at her let alone staring at her till the last minute.For herbeing so tired and bothered she had spaced out sort of at entering the bar .She cocke dher head slightl at the male that was staring at her as she finally noticed him"Oh I'm sorry do you need by I'm tired and all"She said to him simply wondering if that was why he was staring at her or might it be something else.Whatever it was she knew it couldn't be about her no one liked her and thought she was very boring.

Nick took one glance around the bar, before letting his gaze settle back upon her. It didn't take long for her words to enter his ears. His ears caught the soft tones to her voice. A charming smile dashed across his face, as he shook his head. "Not really. I just felt like watching a beautiful woman," he complimented. "The name is Nicholai Carter, though my colleagues call me Nick. What might your name be?" He questioned after announcing his own name.
