Christian did vividly remember the woman. Only for her part to play in his entrapment. It took a lot to control his expression in that regard. “Rachel. Thirties. Tall and brunette. Well dressed and well spoken. I don’t have a photograph. She was camera shy.” He clenched his jaw the entire time as to refrain from inserting any nasty comment about the woman. He only wanted a little assistance in finding her. “She’s unstable so I’m worried.”

She took note, mostly because if she needed to hand it over to her officers then she’d happily do so. “Well if you worried, you can hop in my car and we can have a drive around town see if you can spot her or I can send a message to all my officers currently about and get them to call me if they spot her. Your choice.”

“I respect a woman’s privacy. No worries-” He wouldn’t pry where prying wasn’t allowed.Or rather where no one wanted it to be. “I say a little break in the day helps to get through the rest. I hope the people of Mystic Falls aren’t running you too crazy today.” He offered his arm politely to her, a warm smile on his lips.

“Noble. Appreciated none the less...-” she shrugged, sure there would be a long annoying conversation with someone at some point but for now she was glad it wasn’t gonna be jumped at. “And since my breaks are usually spent alone or in my care i’d say things are already a little better huh?” Delilah offered a warmer grin, taking his arm with some form of ease which was definitely strange since she wouldn’t have done this when she first came to Mystic Falls. “Less so the people are more so the paper work but that’s the job I signed up for.”

“A friend of mine is missing,” Christian informed. “I understand there’s a procedure to these things, but my friend is a little….well, one screw loose. I’m afraid she could be hurt and was hoping you could help me out.”

“Okay, well at the very least i’m gonna need a few details...-a name, age, picture, description of what she was wearing the last time you saw her...things like that.” Delilah added with a nod, suddenly in work mode without even realizing it. “I’ll help, it’s what i’m here for.”

He stayed where he stood until he was sure that the car had safely reversed without hitting anyone. From the corner of his eyes, he could see the blonde slip a piece of paper in her pocket; the same paper that had her distracted. “Must be pretty important to risk dying over,” he said in a joking tone, raising an eyebrow in curiosity. 

“I wish, just a big complicated mess honestly but that’s about it...-definitely not worth dying over.” She chuckled and that of course was true, she’d not spoken or wanted to speak to her family for years as far as she was concerned she just needed to burn the letter and be done with it. “Delilah though, or Sheriff I guess. People seem to call me that no matter what now.”

* “It’s just my friend, Jimmy. He’s been missing for a few weeks and I’m concerned about him. A part of me hopes he is just mad at me and that’s why he’s not answering his phone but I don’t know.” 

“Do you have an address?...or even a picture of him?” It was typical protocol, granted these days jumping to the worst always tended to come to mind and even more so with the new people in town.

Carson gave a gracious nod before holding the cigarette between his teeth, shielding it with his hands as he ignites the flame. Taking a drag he blows it to the side of them and hands it back to her. “Are you ever not stressed? In the department like this one? Doubt you’ve really got it kicked.” He didn’t mean to pry, he was really only speaking out loud.

“Honestly?...no but most of the time I don’t even have the time to think about having a smoke.” Of course that always had more to do with her job title than much else, her life outside of work wasn’t ever that crazy and now considering she had more work that probably spoke for itself.

“Forget I asked. None of my business.” Tomas had his hands back in his jacket pockets, actually having another motive for approaching the familiar face. “Well I wasn’t sure if you were on duty at this exact second, but I was wondering if  you wanted to grab a bite to eat. My treat.”

“Thanks...and trust me you dodged a long complicated bullet by not asking questions.” It wasn’t like it was anything crazy, just her parents or the people she used to call parents trying to get in touch but of course the complicated part came because of a few things in her past she refused to talk about and not even because she couldn’t because sometimes it hurt too much to talk about. “I’ve got a bit of time. So sure why not.” She gave a small, warm smile.

“I don’t know, but I was just gonna warn you that you might wanna move away,” Alex said. He gestured to the car that was trying to reverse out of its parking spot, the driver not watching where they were going as they almost collided with the car and the blonde. 

“Oh?...crap. Yeah thanks.” She chuckled happily shoving the letter in her back pocket so she could move out of the way...since the last thing she needed was to be put in the hospital because some idiot wasn’t looking where they were reversing.

* Daisie felt like she needed to keep up a cover. “About a minute maybe?” She answered. “Hey, sheriff, can I talk to you?”

Shoving the letter in her back pocket she offered a small smile, “Sure, i’m all ears...what’s up?” Delilah questioned looking over at the other female.

Normally Carson would put up some sort of a fight as to his inherent right to be laying on the bench but his mother taught him better than talking back to a cop. Especially since he didn’t know who the new Sheriff was after Liz split. He sits up straight and pulls on his shirt, holding up a hand as if to say no thanks. “I’m okay, thank you, ma’am. Happen to have a light though?” He asks, pulling out a pack of cigarettes from his back pocket but not before pulling out a few other things. His wallet, some receipts, probably a napkin with a phone number on it. The man really needed a purse or murse? Is that was they called it? He wasn’t sure. 

“Uh..-” she took a moment, digging inside her pocket before she pulled one out and offered it to him. “There you go...-kicked the habit a while back but sometimes if I get stressed I find a cigarette or two kinda helps.” Delilah had bad habits or at least the worst was drinking off the job of course she had her reasons for it just like most people did.

Christian was undoubtedly staring. Observing. He was ever so carefully watching until the woman startled and turned her eyes on him. “For a while,” he answered plainly. Not that it mattered to him. “Are you in charge?”

She moved for a moment before placing the letter in her car to either throw away or deal with later so she could turn her attention to the guy. “Pretty much, how can I help?” Delilah questioned curiously, she didn’t like to judge a book by it’s cover but most of the time she was pretty good at reading people.

“Sheriff. A timely meeting,” Vincenzo said, lifting his gaze toward her. “My assistant should drop by your place tomorrow for a few issues regarding security.” Despite being a demon, he’d never done business in illegality. He didn’t need to, managing just fine with his negotiation skills. Sitting up, he moved toward the blonde, extending a hand. “Vincenzo Michela. Owner of the Penumbra chain.”

“Oh great, i’ll make sure someone’s around for that though with the lack of trouble around town lately someone will be.” She added with a small smile, taking his hand to give it a firm shake. “Nice to meet you Vincenzo, welcome to town...-anything you need just feel free to let me or the department know..it’s what we’re here for.”

Elena’s eyes widened even wider! “A mugshot! That’s perfect. You have no idea how I want to do some prank with that”, she laughed along with her. Her smile grew brighter. “Why don’t we start now? First stop, the Grill, we can grab something and Caroline can join us there, and then we decide where we go next”

“Trust me I do, which makes it even funnier.” She laughed for a moment longer, before letting herself calm down a little before she gave a grin. “The Grill it is, lets get the fun started.” she insisted with a shrug, sure she’d probably regret it the next day but hey she was all about having a little fun.

Tomas was quiet as he gave her the benefit of finishing up whatever it was she was up to. He had also purposely kept quiet in his approach, but that was another matter. “Didn’t mean to startle you,” he assured. “It’s just me. Whatcha reading there?”

“It’s fine, don’t worry about it.” She added with a small smile, she could figure who the letter was from and the last thing she wanted to do was read it. “Nothing just a crappy letter...-work stuff.” Delilah felt the need to cover up what it was because the truth of it all often hurt way too much. “Everything okay?”

[toservexandprotect]

She’d been lent against the hood of her car, staring at the letter for a few moments too long in all honesty she was just trying to figure out whether she should burn it, toss it or actually read it and hadn’t noticed anyone around her before they made her jump slightly. “Shit!” Delilah added with a chuckle. “How long was I zoned out for if it was a while, i’m sorry.”

mrs-elenaxsalvatore‌:

“If I ever make that call, don’t forget to take a pic of him behind the bars and send to me…”, she winked back and then laughed. Elena listened to her, frowning. “So what? You were promoted, yeah… And it doesn’t mean you’re not allowed to have fun. Mystic Falls is pretty slow when there’s no witch rituals or hybrids on the loose”, her face lit up with an idea, “C’mon, let’s have some fun tonight. I’ll call Caroline and we can have a girls night”

“You don’t think that’s the first thing i’d be doing?..next to taking a mugshot obviously.” Laughing just at the idea before she gave a shrug at the mention of the lack of fun. “You know what, count me in. The police department has me 24/7 and since we got no scary crap happening, I think I deserve it. Lets do it.” Delilah gave a grin at the thought.

It was possible that Carson was too lazy to stumble home and had instead sought refuge on a bench in the town square for the night. Way too hot for a shirt though so he just threw it over his face to block out the street lights at the time. Who knows how long he’d drifted off? Not him that’s for sure at least until the shirt it yanked off his face and with it a groan leaves him. “Christ, what gives?” 

“Hate to be a buzzkill and everything but you know..if I let you pass out on a bench in the middle of town, i’m really gonna be giving my self and my job a bad name.” Which was about the only reason she was, she’d been in his position granted it was way back when she was still a criminal in New York and passing out on benches were a common occurrence. “You need some food? I got a sandwich in the back of my car if it’s gonna help.”
