<div align="center"><strong>~ Mae Little aka "MeiMei"- blindly and most willingly following Vincent through the mean streets of Persephone~</strong></div><br/><br/>Following Vincent down the alley, Mae couldn't help but let her gaze wander as she took in the seedy environment. The buildings seemed to continuously stretch towards the sky, leaning at an angle until the blue was squeezed out. The musty scent of stale beer and what she could only describe as body sweat hung in the air, assaulting her senses and completing the backdrop to what was sure to be her first black market endeavour. The excitement and thrill of the adventure skated along her body causing her to step closer, keeping close to her partner and leaning closer in order to tease Vincent with a sassy whisper. "You sure know how to show a girl a good time Vinnie.”   Unprepared for the sudden halt she soon had the delightful pleasure of feeling the powerful body belonging to her co-pilot beneath her fingers. Fingers that quickly took advantage of the situation, dancing across his brawny back memorizing the muscle play that was put on parade purposely beneath her touch.<br/><br/>A slight gasp bubbled from her mouth and tickled Vincent's ear as she watched wide eyed as a silhouette followed by its partner made itself known from the shadows. Her mouth dropped open slightly, only to grow wider as the three began to converse in a way that made it plainly obvious that they knew each other. Mae had always been curious about Vincent and his past. The man was extremely tight lipped over the details, rarely ready to share his life history. She hadn't pushed, as she herself wasn't exactly forth coming about her own family and humble beginnings.  Had she been an open book Mae knew without a doubt she would have pestered him into spilling all of his deepest secrets. As luck would have it she now found herself with the unique opportunity to learn a small chapter of his mysterious past.  The excitement buzzed within her, causing her to lean closer and listen in. Why was it dangerous for him to return to his home planet? Who were these two people, and what did they mean to Vincent?<br/><br/>Mae smiled, giggling at the compliment, taking the time to fluff her hair and smooth her hands along the curves of her body.<strong>"It's awfully reckless of you returning to Persephone given your situation. Of course, you were never really known for your common sense. Especially when there was a cute girl involved.” </strong>Unable to resist, she sent a flirtatious wink and a cheeky finger wave towards the two only to be shocked speechless as Vincent introduced them.<strong>"Despite the lackluster welcome, I missed you guys. Mae, I'd like you to meet my older brother Tony, and my youngest brother Jacob. Though his choice in accessories is new to me." </strong>Standing stock still in the middle of the alley, eyes wide and her mouth slightly gapping Mae took exactly sixty seconds to recover before flashing the three attractive men before her a brazen smile that reached her dancing mischievous eyes.  "Wow there are more of you? My Vinnie has brothers?” nibbling on her bottom lip she let her eyes quickly run along them in a quick assessment, it was clear that she found the brothers impressive. "Now what's all this about it being dangerous here for him?"<br/><br/>Her green crisp eyes turned towards her shipmate, filled with concern for his well-being. She had spent what must have seemed like forever gushing about going out dancing and spending a wild night on the town plantetside, but if that meant putting Vincent in danger she was more than happy to spend the night playing cards and hanging out in their quarters. Later she might revisit those thoughts to discover the underlying feelings that seemed to wrap around all her thoughts concerning Vincent, but for now all she cared about was his safety. Turning to look directly at the most handsome of the brothers, Mae spoke with a soft tender voice as she directed her next question to the middle of the three "Vinnie, maybe we should just spend the night on the ship? We can grab some drinks and play some strip poker" finishing her question with a wink and a sassy smile to cover the concern she held for him Mae pushed back her hair and shifted her weight to one side, cocking her hip out as she waited for his response.<br/><br/>
