Being a detective had it’s perks. Using those perks to satisfy his own whims brought forward several ethical questions that he wasn't willing to answer. There was absolutely nothing official about this investigation. If it could even be called that. Sort of felt insulting to his profession to keep making his blindly chasing after a one night stand sound official. He had stolen his credit card. He tried to focus on that. Which, for some reason he wasn't. His credit card was the furthest thing from his mind. Dean, which was totally not her real name (because he was such a good detective), was at the forefront of it.
With her stupid fake nails and her stupid fucking cat stockings and her god damned fucking lighter. Grayson sighed, pushing his hands through his hair and turning his sights on another security camera. Because he was in the security office of the only mall in a reasonable distance that had a Sephora and Papaya. Not that he knew what either of those things were.
"There she is," he muttered, recognizing her tiny frame and wild hair. "Where is that?"
"South end, sir." The guards were very polite, and very excited to be a part of an official police investigation. Because that's what this was. Just police business. Identify fraud and credit card theft. Which were very illegal and these actions were justified.
The end of the mall they had directed him to was mostly deserted. Knock off cell phone case kiosks and shady store fronts offering massages. Grayson certainly looked official in his tie, with a badge and a gun and a stalking sort of walk that implied he shouldn't be hindered from his path.
By the time he reached the stretch of hall that led to a collection of restrooms, he was at a loss. Did he wait for her to come out? Did he go in? He adjusted his glasses. Of course he went in, she was a criminal and he was a cop. She was not some damsel and he was not some peeping tom. He pushed open the door to the women's restroom and stepped inside. Rounding the corner he found her. Dancing in front of the mirror like she didn't have a care in the world. Wearing something pink and gray and probably ridiculous.
He would lose his shit if he saw another cat face.
"Would you like to explain yourself?" he asked, voice echoing in the cavernous space of the empty stalls.
