He wrapped his arms around Jazmyn since she seemed even more eager to lay more kisses on the stranger. He looked to the woman with an amused smile. “That’s a good tip, I’ll definitely think of it next time.” He teased, sarcastically, knowing full aware he had a leash on Jaz in the first place. It just broke. Though he had to blame himself, he hadn’t bought a new one since he got her seven years ago. He furrowed his brows. “What’s a helicopter mom, anyway?” Ben asked with an amused smile. Petting his best friends, furry coat.

Roni caught and appreciated that mans sarcasm. She sat up on her elbows still laying in the grass as she looked over at him. Her eyes wide in disbelief. Who didn't know what a helicopter mom was, was he spawned under a rock just the day before? "You know, a helicopter mom." She said as she she started to picked herself off of the ground. "They are crazy over protective and hover around their kids to make sure they don't have any fun."

She had just landed two nights ago, and had spent the days trying to get over her jetlag. But even staying at her temporary hotel suite wasn’t ideal. Leo had decided to finally drag her ass out to see what has changed over the years since she left Ashfield. And before she knew it, she was now sitting at the park she had spent most of her childhood at. Watching the couple bicker, Leo could only chuckle when the question was asked, “Who knows? Maybe it’s not what the girl did and the guy’s just overreacting. Or maybe that’s how they communicate. It’s weird, but it does happen. It’s actually incredibly interesting. They’d yell at each other but that’s what it works? But I don’t know if I could consider that as healthy.”

Roni glanced over at the girl. A stoic calm look written on her face. What was she going on about? Was she trying to psychoanalysis the couple from this far away. "I don't think you quite get how this whole game works." She said turning her full body towards the girl, crossing her legs to sit more comfortably. "I make a comment about what the girl did and you make up some outrageous story about her eating the last of the Mac and cheese or whatever."

Cat couldn’t help but be a little nosy sometimes. Whenever she saw something interesting going on, she wanted to know what was happening. So when she spotted a couple arguing in the park, she had trouble looking away. And she wasn’t the only one it seemed. She glanced at the person next to her, and then back at the couple. She tilted her head in thought. “Hm… it’s hard to tell,” she said. “She looks more sad than mad. Guilt, maybe? Maybe she cheated on him?” she speculated.

Roni looked back over at the couple fighting. The girl next to her had been right. The man seemed to bee over reacting, his arms flailing as the girl slouched and tried to make herself as small as possible. That was definitely a look of guilt. "I think you may be right, my bet is she slept with someone he knew. He is way too irrationally angry for a simple cheating, look at his eyes. There is more then a look of betrayal there."

 “Well hop on in then.” Audra grinned before motioning her head to the passenger seat. Once plopping herself down in the drivers seat the two were headed for the beach with a content canine watching out the front window with his head poking between the two seats. “I didn’t know you were into photography.” Audra briefly glanced at her before eyes returned back to the road. 

[ronitodd-blog]

As Audra drove, Roni reached behind them to give Finn some attention. She ran her fingers through the dogs fur. God she loved animals. She looked forward and touched the strap on her camera, it was like a security blanket to her at times. "Oh yeah, one of my many passions. I especially like snapping pictures of dirty of men doing it." She said with a gentle sarcastic laugh. "Seriously though I think I got into photography after spending most of my childhood in a black room. What about you? You got anything like that?"

[zaranott]

“Well that was deep.” The brunette responded, rolling her eyes lightly. “Why yes, of course, talking to me must be the worst thing in your life.” She gestured to her with her hand. “I mean, look at you. Aiding society in a lower form than the paparazzi. Was there something you wanted? Being in your presence makes me incredibly uncomfortable.” 

[ronitodd-blog]

Roni rolled her eyes almost violently. Being here was a mistake but as Zara had pointed out people already thought she was scum. She wasn't about to become scummier by keeping quiet. She had tried the whole no morals thing, her conscious ate at her. She opened her bag and pulled out a Manila envelope with a couple of amateur shots of Zara and thrust them into the girls hands. "This will be sure to make you super comfortable then. You've got a stalker."

Jaz and Roni

[dammitjaz]

Jasmin needed something– anything. The hangover she’d been nursing all morning would easily be the death of her. As of late, it seemed she was only drinking herself under the table. Ruffling her fingers through her hair, she hadn’t been paying attention. Her focus was somewhere on the guy from last night– and her phone. Or neither at all, she just needed caffeine and so her damn headache to disappear. It wasn’t until she felt the jar that came with another body running into her that she finally glanced up. Her mouth fell agape for the second at best. It might as well have been a figment of the other’s imagination. As though her morning wasn’t already bad enough, this just made it worse. A humorless laugh seeped out. “Oh, I wish I was… Roni.” Her head lulled back while she continued chuckling. “So, very good to see you.”

[ronitodd-blog]

Keep the words inside Todd, she chastised herself. Forcing her eyes straight a head. Her shoulder tensed as the feelings she had felt came rushing back to her. She felt transported back there, she had really thought she had been over it. Damn feelings sucked. "Oh yeah so very good to see me, you will probably be running for the hills any moment now." She said with a bitter smile. Her harsh words not coinciding with the cheerful tone she had put on.

[ronitodd-blog]

Roni was always people watching, it came with the job. She couldn’t quite help it and sitting in the park was like a gold mine to her. There was so much going on. She spotted a couple having a heated argument and noticed she wasn’t the only person watching them. “What do you think she did to get such a public verbal thrashing?” She asked glancing over at the body next to her

[ronitodd-blog]

what's your biggest regret?

Taking over my dad’s P.I business. I went to school for photography and now I’m taking dirty pictures for money. I feel dirty

[ronitodd-blog]

What is your biggest fear?

Like I am ever going to tell you guys that. Bugs

[ronitodd-blog]

Are you a forgiving or bitter person?

I want to say forgiving but who the hell am I kidding. I hold grudges, so sue me.

“Ahh well at least you know how to do your job,” Lexa murmured as the girl revealed herself. “I don’t know if being a dancer could help with sneaking.”

[ronitodd-blog]

With a shrug of her shoulders Roni responded. “I don’t know, being a dancer you’ve got to be light on your feet right? It’s the same with sneaking.”

Late night honesty hour??

Jaz and Roni

Coffee was the nectar of the gods and if Roni had owned a coffee maker she would not be in this godforsaken line. Waiting yet again for her fix, but hey it could have been worse, she could have had an addiction like her mother. Roni was thankful to the Gods, all of them, that she had not inherited that. Instead she just have cravings for Coffee, especially after a long night sitting outside some strange apartment hoping to catch someone cheating so she could pay her light bill this month. She finally got her order in and took a couple steps to the left waiting for the barista to finish her simple order. She had been a little preoccupied and knocked into another girl waiting. Luckily she had gotten her man the night before and was in a good mood, though that mood did not last long. She turned her head to face the girl she rammed into and her mouth went a little slack jawed. Jaz, the one girl she never thought she would see again. “You’ve got to be kidding me.” She muttered bitterly. Still feeling the sting of what went down years ago.

“Hey beautiful/handsome.” Audra gave a toothy grin at the familiar face coming her way. To her side was a four legged, long haired Australian Shepard who’s tail thrashed wildly at the welcomed company. “I’m about to take Finn here to the beach and get a walk in. Want to come along?” The girl opened up the door to her jeep and the canine jumped. The door shut and her attention was brough back to them.

[ronitodd-blog]

Roni had been out taking candid pictures of strangers when she spotted Audra and Finn. “Sup Sexy.” She teased in response to the girls hello statement, she let her camera drop on the strap around her neck as she kneeled down to pet the girls dog. Roni loved animals, especially Finn. This dog was amazing. “I am in, I’m getting bored of strangers around here giving me funky looks. People just do not like getting their pictures taken without their permission.” She said with a shrug of her shoulders. Her sarcastic nature slipping through.

[zaranott]

“What went wrong in your life to make you the shit person you are now?”

[ronitodd-blog]

Roni shook her head, there was nothing this girl could say to her that she hadn’t already heard before. She got it, being a private Investigator was low down on the totem pole. She was basically a marriage ruiner, and a pervert taking pictures of cheating spouses. “Mom was a druggie, Dad died while we were in the middle of a fight. Pretty sure all that death and destruction fucked me up something good. I mean I’m here talking to you so something bad must have happened in my life.”

Roni walked out of the dark and held up her hands. “Sorry, sneaking around is kind of part of the job description, I forget how to turn it.” She said with a simple shrug of her shoulders.
