The alarm went off exactly at noon as Stephen had intended. "Ugh," Amelia groaned and rolled over, coming up against Stephen'd 'dead' body. He was cold and utterly still. That used to freak her out, but in the weeks they had been together, she had gotten used to it. Leaning down, she pressed a kiss to his cold lips, then slipped out of bed.
After a shower, she found the note and smiled. Then walked over to the dresser and fished out some clothes- a red bra with gold leaves, a matching pair of panties, a black shirt with a low cut neckline and flowing black sleeves and a black sash to tie around just under her breasts, and a black leather skirt. She dressed in all that, tied the sash to sinch her waist, then slid on some thigh length black socks, her heeled boots, and then a pair of earrings that were a black feather. She left her auburn hair to curl waywardly to frame her delicate face.
She gathered her suitcase and the money, before heading upstairs. The sunlight was bright and she spent a moment basking in it, before throwing her bag back into the fixed car. A moment was spent admiring her gift again before climbing into it.
Once everything was set, she was allowed to pull her car off the boat and out onto Japan's deck. It was such a strange realization that she was actually in Japan. Parking for a moment, she sifted through her cd's before putting in Giragumesh and letting the heavy rock japanese band play over her speakers. Then she double checked her gps and left the dock.
As she drove to the address that Stephen had put in, she couldn't help but get more and more excited. In fact, she got antsy, tapping the foot not on the gas and drumming her fingers on the steering wheel. Eventually she to the front of a very, very nice, large, and fantastic looking hotel. A young japanese man came around as she climbed out and took her keys, handing her a ticket, saying he would take good care of her car. She nodded and pulled out her suitcase, shut the trunk, then headed inside.
It was almost like stepping into a new world. It had to the best hotel she had ever soon. It wouldn't surprise her if this hotel housed high up business japanese men, like CEO's and presidents. It made her a little nervous as she made her way to the lobby desk, the very nice lobby desk, with a very attractive woman standing behind it. She was about Amelia's height, with jet black hair, pale skin, black eyes, and a very alluring figure. And her smile could make someone keel, she noted when the woman smiled friendly to her.
"How can I help you, miss?" the woman asked, surprising her when she spoke in english. Not that she should be too surprised. More and more Americans had been heading to Japan over the years.
"Ah...yes, I'm checking in. Nathan Marks," she said. The woman typed something in and then looked up. "I'm his fiancee," she added, showing the woman the extravagent ring on her left hand.
"Ah! Congratulations!" she replied with a smile, typing something else in, before turning and grabbing her a card key. A gold one, like, the only one of that color. Is it special or something? Amelia wondered. The woman came back and handed her the card. "There you go, you're all checked in. Here's your cardkey. The 32nd key in the elevator is seperate from the rest and needs a card key to access it. Use this card key in the elevator and it will let you up," she said with a smile. "Don't hesitate to call down to service if you require anything."
Amelia nodded and took the key. "Thank-you." She walked to the elevator with her bag and stepped inside, sliding the card into the card reader under the 32nd floor's button. As soon as she did, the button lit up and she began to ascend to her and Stephen's room. When she stepped out, she about fell over onto the floor out of shock.
"This is not a hotel room!" she exclaimed as she looked over the 'hotel room'. "This is like a luxury apartment!" And indeed it was. It was a large livingroom with plush, elegant couches and chairs. A glass coffee table. Expensive lamps and plants. A very large tv, a kitchen with marble counters. The bathroom was the same, with marble counter tops, a fucking hot tub for a bath, a shower, and toilet. The bed room was no less shocking with a huge bed covered in silk sheets, the same lamps as the livingroom, a decorative fireplace, and two cherry oak dressers.
Amelia set her bag on the bed and shook her head with a small laugh. "I'm used to the vampire thing, but this is going to take some getting used to," she murmured as she moved to the window, full room window same as the livingroom, that gave her an astounding view of the city. "I want to go look around, but I'd rather do it with Stephen...nnn," she seemed to mull over it a moment, before hopping around and heading back out with the money Stephen had given her.
The hours passed quickly, too quickly, and at 9:30 that night, Amelia was coming back into the room, setting a few bags down on the floor beside the bed. She hadn't bought much, just a few books she had not been able to find thus far in the US, and some artist pens that professional manga-ka's used; mainly just a few things she couldn't get at home. She let out a sigh and stretched, the shirt lifting high enough for a peek of her belly button before she righted it and checked the clock. Twenty minutes until she had to meet her love in the lobby.
She walked into the kitchen, the heels of her boots clicking across the plush white carpet, before then the tiles of the kitchen floor. She got herself a glass of water, then another, hydrating herself since she just realized she hadn't drank anything all day. After a final glass, she set it down and left the room, taking the elevator down to the lobby. She stepped out, walking out a little as her blue eyes scanned for Stephen. Vaguely, she wondered what he would think of her appearance. This was really the first time she had purposely dressed up for him, to tempt him and please him. It made her smile as she waited.
