Karina was a fairly disciplined person. She was no Vulcan of course, but when it came time to focus she did despite any other distractions. That afternoon that distraction came in the form of a 5 foot 11 inch, dark braided hair, woman with an adorable laugh, soulful eyes, and a dedicated police officer. Karina managed to keep her meetings from going over too far. But once she got home she had to make quick work of her shower and getting ready.Karina pulled her hair back into a loose pony tail; she wore low slung hip hugger capris, an off one shoulder soft cotton like shirt in fuchsia, and comfortable sneakers. She applied just a little bit of make up to her eyes and a colored lip gloss. The final touch was her light tan leather jacket. She pocketed her comm and ID. Then she had to pace about her apartment until it was time to go up two floors to pick Jewel up.
At exactly 1800 Jewel’s chime rang.

Jewel had managed to get home early for once, she always put in overtime and she wanted to be ready for tonight. She had gone through 7 different outfits for the night, from a long sundress to hoochie shorts with a country style tied button down polka dot shirt. She was so excited when she heard the door. Outside Karina heard a squeak of joy, the thump of feet running down the hall, a thud, “ouch,, moth” a scamper in front of the door and a long pause.
Jewel tried to shake off the aching big toe as she gave herself one last primp. She opened the door a smile on her face, she had light makeup on it was not her style to over do it, her long black hair cascaded over her shoulder with some small yellow flower in her hair, she was wearing a black v-cut leather jacket, a tube top and tight jeans. Around her neck was a tight silver chain, another that bridged the front of her Jeans, a jeweled silver chain on her wrist. her we go she thought. And was held mute as she caught sight of Karina, she forgot her name, where she was.

Karina let her eyes slowly caress over Jewel. That was a very good look. Karina wanted to run her hands over the skin of her stomach that was peeking out at her. The other thing she wanted to do was run her hands all through that thick rich hair. “Jewel…” she said breathlessly. “You are… a delight.”

“Huh” she said slowly coming back into reality. “You look amazing” she said,oh my she thought hold it together, play it cool “Please come in she said taking her hand and kissing her cheek. She swung around her hips tipping back and forth as she grabbed her black ankle high boots. “It’s not much but it’s mine” she said flicking her fingers toward the living room. “Have a look” she said waying her hand as she slipped on the boot.
Apartment was very clean, sheves of various tribal like carvings covered the walls each floating shelf held its own featured item, it was rather devoid of of clutter. Dark warm woods surrounded the room wood floors with trim and molding to match. In the center was a large shag rug with two love seats sitting around a fake fireplace. The kitchen overlooked the space, a small table in front of and island. It was very well decorated.
Karina moved around the space looking, but not touching anything. The lack of clutter seemed to draw more attention to the items. “One day, I will ask about these,” she said waving to the carving and such. She turned and moved back toward Jewel.
“mmm My Tamsy did it all, not like I have time to decorate, ” she said as she laced up her boot. “She said something about it suiting my aura or something I don’t know, but when I saw it the first time , I was like Tamsy this is amazing, it spoke to me kinda, she’s and amazing decorator if you want i’m sure she’d love to decorate your place, she’s amazing ” she continued as she put on her other boot. “At like reading people and knowing exactly what would work best to make them unwind at the end of the day. ”
She stood and walked into the living room. “Where we going” she said cupping her hand on Karina’s should kicking her foot up backwards in the air and batting her eyelashes.

Karina chuckled, “It’s a surprise. But I promise it is a very public place.” Karina had given too many lectures to her students. “Are you ready to go to your surprise, Gem?”

“Yay,” she said pulling Karina’s hand toward the door, grabbing a small black purse with a silver chain on it on the way out.Detective Inspector Jewel Stone
There was a slider waiting outside the building for them. Karina had already arranged it and the driver knew where they were going. Karina filled the ride with general conversation topics. Nothing too deep or bland. The slider move through the city toward the outer edge. The building on this end were taller and made it hard to see what was past it. The closer they got to the outskirts the heavier traffic became, but nothing frustrating.
Karina had stopped speaking so she could watch Jewel’s reaction. She hoped she’d made the right choice. Something light and fun, where they could laugh and just be silly. Then the slider slid out from between two buildings. In front of them was a full blown carnival. Rides, games, food, agricultural exhibits and contests, live music. Everything.
