Alex continues eating, not really watching Anthony as Anthony debates the proposal.  He already knew the guy would accept.  It was just a natural extention of the indulgances he had accepted so far.  Being a salesmen is to read the person you are with to at least a certain extent.<br/><br/>Alex finished his steak as Anthony spoke.  He replied, no longer taking care to clear his mouth of food before speaking.  “Good plan.  I'm sure once we get you out of those vintage wares, we will have no trouble russling ourselves up a couple of pieces of ass.”  Alex's language was also degrading as he drank more wine.  His hand swirling the begerave between drinks, not for flavor at this time but out of habit and need for hand movement.  He went from sitting with a comfortable straightness to a lewd relaxed state.  His legs flapping back and forth as he sat.<br/><br/>The waiter arrives and he bolts upright and digs out his wallet.  “Save me some time, man and take this card back.  Cover the two bills and don't take your time with it.”  Alex shoves a credit card to the waiter.  He finishes the last of his wine as he waits for the waiter.  “So tell me what you do.  You said earlier you were here conducting business, what is your line of work?”<br/><br/>The waiter comes back and Alex does the necessary paperwork with a flourish.  And then stands up and almost forgets his card.  He has to turn back to the table to retrieve it.  Alex turns and looks back to be sure Anthony follows.  When he is assured of the company, he leads to the building directly across the street.  He pulls out his wallet again and swipes it to get into the door.  Once the door releases, he enters, flips off the camera and walks to the elevators.  He presses the button.  Only then does he think to make sure Anthony is still with him.  He turns to be sure.<br/>
