Georgie Kincaid had made it a point of leaving Gardener Wild a message the moment she arrived from Seattle to New York City. The vampire had seemingly dropped off the map for several years but once Georgie had recieved word that he had resurfaced and in New York City no less she had to see to it to attempt a meeting with the vampire.
Many would call it a death wish...arranging a meeting with a vampire but Georgie considered it a quest for knowledge. She had a desire to know more...to know everything in all honesty and she would do whatever she needed to in order to get that. After all the worst that could happen was that she would die and then her mission in this life would be over. If she spent every day worrying about what would kill her she would never do a single thing but sit around.
Dressed in a knee length black dress with classic black heels and a crimson scark tied neatly around her neck Georgie had made her way through the spring evening till she reached the bench in Central Park she had pin pointed in ehr emssage for their meeting. She didn't know if the vampire would show or not; in truth she had about a 50 / 50 chance but she was willing to weigh her odds.
Sitting upon the edge of the bench she crossed her ankles carefully as her eyes scanned the darkness and she waited to see if her twilight meeting would indeed show or not.

Mr. Wild it works out rather well that I reached your voicemail I suppose........Meet me in Central Park across from the fountain there will be a bench I will be there at half past 9:00 I'll wear a red scarf so you can find me easily.
Gardener was beyond fascinated when he had turned on his phone and found a voicemail from a young woman who wanted to meet with him. He had never realized that there were humans out there following him. Truthfully, he was curious as to what was being said about him. He had no real use for humans, but this sounded fascinating.
And Gardener never turned down an opportunity which might stroke his ego.
Starting into Central Park, Gardener paused long enough to purchase a single bright red rose. If he was going to show he was going to show to impress. It wasn't like Gardener to make a bad impression-especially not when a woman was involved.
Gardener stopped in the darkness facing the fountain the woman had mentioned in her voicemail. There was the bench, and there was the lovely young creature with the red scarf who who had chosen to contact him. Gardener felt a sly smile cross his face. This had to be a far less irritating than one with Alexis.
Stepping out of the shadows, he held the rose out as he crossed the sidewalk to the girl.
"A red rose always goes well with a red scarf." He smiled, holding out the rose in an offering to the woman. "Gardener Wild. I believe you are expecting me."

Georgina refused to allow herself the nervous habbit of glancing across the fountain at the clock which stood perched upon the rot iron fence; instead she occupied her time with brushing non existent lint from her black dress and counting the copious amount of dead leaves still attached to the tree in the park.
Georgina couldn’t help herself but in the very moment Gardener Wild stepped from the shadows with his red rose in tow he stole her breath away. She had waited her entire life for the opportunity to sit down and speak with a vampire to see what their inner workings were and she would admit she had long since been fascinated over the tale Gardener Wild had in his wake.
“So it would seem,” Georgina replied with a smile once she had taken the second needed to gather her wits about her once more. She had of course known that vampires were by their nature beautiful creatures but for some reason the descriptions Georgie had read pertaining to Mr. Wild hadn’t entirely prepared her for the way he dazzled her per say.
“Thank you Mr. Wild,” Georgie said taking the rose with a cordial smile as she pulled herself from the bench and stared back at the man she had read so much about over time and extended her hand to him.
“Georgina Kincaid; so very glad you decided to entertain my invitation for a meeting this evening Mr. Wild.”

Gardener's smile widened as the girl stood up and he was able to fully take her in. She was dressed in a profoundly classic manner. And a woman who wasn't afraid to contact a vampire was a highly appealing trait. Actually, any woman who was fascinated with vampires appealed to him.
"I'm honored to meet you, Ms. Kincaid." He took her hand in his before pressing it lightly to his lips. "I was even more honored to receive your invitation. Although I can say it certainly took me by surprise, it's not a phone call I get every day."
Gardener took a few steps back, setting his eyes on the woman. He was not picking up hunter vibes from her. And if she was one in disguise, he certainly wasn't worried. He had handled woman twice her build practically asleep.
"Georgina is a very rare name." He nodded, musing over the name. "It's a very rare find, you're very lucky. It's almost as rare as a woman who requests a meeting with.......someone of my social class."
He didn't let the word "vampire" fall from his lips. He'd let her be the first to say it. It was always nice when women addressed him by his proper title.

"As I am you Mr. Wild," Georgie explained with a pleasent smile as his cool lips pressed against her skin. It was a divine sensation but one that was over with too quickly.
"Yes I'm sure you don't get phone calls such as mine to frequently...or at least I would hope not," Georgie said with a soft smile as she gently retracted her ahnd and used it to brush the slight cresses in her dress.
"You don't have to worry Mr. Wild I am here for my own purposes and none of those include bringing any harm to you. I simply wish to chat."
Georgie had wanted to make it perfectly clear that her desire to meet with the 500 year old vampire were on honest origin and that she meant him no harm...not lie she oculd very well be much of a threat to him but still she would give herself a few extra points.
"Yes I know. The name has been in my family for years...it may even be older then you Mr. Wild," Georgina explaiend with a slight twinklein her eye as she allowed her sight to fully take in the vampire before her. He was as stunning and as well kept as she could have hoped for and Georgie knew that even if the evening did end with more then half of her blood upon the sidewalk it would have been worth it.
"Very rare indeed...almost almost as rare as a 500 year old vampire from Paris gracing the streets of New York City. Perhaps we could walk as we talk or...are you a fan of chocolate Mr. Wild? I would ask if you were a fan ofdivine and expensive items but we both already know the answer to that," Georgina spoke as she slipped her hand in her hair and pulled her longblack hair out of the bun it had been placed in and allowed her locks to flow over her shoulders.

Gardener raised an eyebrow as the girl mentioned she meant no harm and simply wanted to chat. He had to restrain himself from laughing. He was nowhere near frightened. Not many things did frighten him, so in truth it wasn't really her fault. But how many people really wanted to have a chat with a vampire?
"A chat? That's very interesting. You look like a very normal young lady, Miss Kincaid. I was under the impression that sweet, delicate young things such as yourself didn't go looking for vampires. In fact, I didn't think many people believed in vampires."
Gardener slipped his hands into the back pockets of the blue denim jeans he was wearing with his deep blue polo shirt and brown suede jacket. It was a comfortable outfit and made him blend in nicely.
"Older than me, you say?" He chuckled lightly. "I didn't think there was much older than me. I appreciate the compliment."
Gardener was impressed with the girl's classic style. She had an elegant aroma about her. Everything about Georgina Kincard seemed very put together. It was like someone he would have encountered in 18th century Paris.
"I have a bit of business here." Gardener told Georgina. "It's very rare I get into town. And a fan of chocolate? I have to say, it's one of my favorite human creations. You haven't lived until you've experienced the Parisian side of it. But a walk, chocolate, something expensive, I'm open to any number of things. The night is young, we have plenty of time. Let's make the most of it, shall we?"
He watched as the girl's hair fell to billow around her shoulders. She was indeed a beautiful creature. Gardener intended to enjoy this particularly rare evening.

"I am by no means delicate Mr. Wild...and you would be correct most people would not go out searching for such things...or even believe in them. But I must admitt it does wonder for believing when you watch your family torn apart by vampires as a young child. It is not something you forget easily," Georgina explained her vocie holding the same calm tone as it had thus far.
In truth she was not bitter about the death of her parents; she had been young and it had been so many years ago it was pointless to hold a grudge against all of the creatures for the acts of a few. Instead of wanting to seek revenge for her parents death Georgie had found herself drawn to wanting to know more in regards to vampires and other monsters which went bump in the night.
Georgie allowed her eyes to search the vampires for a moment as he spoke and she quickly found herself lost in them before stepping away slihtly and averting her eyes towards the busy New York City street.
"We should most defiently make the most of it," Georgina confirmed with a smile as the wind blew her hair for a moment.
"For a fan of chocolate I have just the place...though considering your age you may have already been there but just the same we can have our meeting there Mr. Wild...if you are still interested?" Georgina asked taking a step towards the exit of the park area her hand extended to the man...the vampire. It was a simply gesture one she would have done with any other man. That was the difference with Georgina Kincaid she nver saw the world in black and white it was the shades of grey she survived in and a vampire certainly ived in teh grey areas.

If it was possible, Gardener's interest peaked even higher. So she'd seen her family killed by vampires-and still wished to chat? Such an action hadn't pushed her directly into the hunter field?
Well, that certainly opened up an entirely new can of worms. And it was one that Gardener wanted to pour out to assure that he had all of them.
"Do I know the assailants?" He asked, smiling faintly. He was only half kidding. While he was fairly certain he hadn't done it personally, he did know a number of vampires with a fondness for the Americas.
"I apologize for your loss, but not for my kinds actions. Me apologizing to you for vampires having to eat would be like your kind apologizing to Bambi."
Gardener let his smile overtake his face as he reached out and clasped the woman's hand. Intrigued did not even begin to capture his mindset at the evening's events. He could only wonder how the rest of it would play out.
"Then by all means, let's go. And I doubt I've given this place the pleasure of gracing it with my presence. I avoid New York City at all costs. If an extremely important business matter hadn't brought me here, I'd still be reading the newspaper at a Parisian coffee shop."

"Highly doubtful," Georgina continued as Wild asked if he knew the vampires that had murdered her family.
"They were American themselves...and they are long since dead," she continued on her eyes catching the glint from the moon which hung above Central Park. She held no anger towards the evnt which had occured so many years ago. After all in retrospect it had formed ehr into the woman who stood before Gardner Wild and for that she would never be sorry for.
"I would not ask you to apologize Mr. Wild...after all we all need to survive," georgie replied simply as her delicate hand intwinded with the Vampires and she began to walk their way out of the core of the park. His hand was cold to the touch and for the faintest of moments she shivered but did not think for a moment to pull away the sensation was far too sureal.
"You and me as well Mr. Gardner I tend to make my home under the cloudy skies of Seattle. It seems as if all the dirt shines far too brightly here in New York," Georgina continued on as they walked around the crowded New York streets towards her destination. She always came to the establishment upon her trips to the city and did enjoy it greatly and wondered what the vampires view on it would be. Though she figured it was not important in the long run.

"Mmm, American vampires." Gardener rolled his eyes. For some reason, American vampires had decided it was in their best interest to vacation in Paris as well as their human counterparts.
"Forgive me, Georgina, but you would be the first American I would have to say has caught my attention as being pleasant." Gardener gave her a soft smile as he turned to look at her before turning his gaze back to the darkening park. He liked the fact that you could be in a park lined with trees and rocks, yet be only a few feet from the bustling lights of the big city.
"New York is a filthy, disgusting city full of useless individuals." Gardener muttered more to himself that her. His meeting with Alexis was flickering through his mind. She'd been so normal before she'd landed herself in this pit of......whatever it was.
"Forgive me, Georgina. I'll keep my mutterings on New York City to myself. Now Seattle, that's a place I haven't visited there. I hear a number of your kind is sleepless there."
Gardener smirked at his own joke. He'd kept up with human pop culture for the sole purpose of being able to lure women to their deaths. Georgina, however, may have walked into hers.

"No need to apologize Mr. Wild...I am not by nay means a New Yorker. But am glad I can hold your fancy long enough," Georgire replied with a smile as teh bright establishment of "Seredipity" came into view.
Georgie laughed lightly at the vampires joke in regards to being "Sleepless...in Seattle" it was by no means a new joke but just the same it was charming coming from a being that was hundreds of years old.
"So I have heard...you see in Seattle we have more...entertaining things to do with our time then sleep Mr. Wild."
The hour was late so the famous chocolate establishment was nowhere near as crowded as it would be on a normal New York night.
"Welcome to Serendipty Mr. Wild...New Yorks most famous chocolate establishment," Georgie replied with a slight smile as she weaved her way between people before finding a secluded corner of the shop where they could sit and talk properly.

Gardener had to admit that the girl had a way with words. So they had better things to do in Seattle then sleep, hhmm?
"Well, if there are all those better things to do in Seattle, what are we doing here?" He gave her a quick wink as he followed her to the table she had picked out. He made a quick move to pull out her chair for her before taking his own seat.
The scents of the establishment mixed well together. Gardener enjoyed the way the sweet chocolate scent mixed with the coppery metallic scent of blood. He could almost taste chocolate so he'd enjoyed mixing it with blood. Maybe he'd receive the opportunity to do it again tonight.
"So, Miss Kincaid, what exactly is it that you do in Seattle?" Gardener brought one hand up to rest his chin on it. "I hope I'm not stealing you away from some lucky other undead man."

"I would be here on business Mr. Wild...and the of course you just happened to spring upon my radar and life became very lucky for me you could say," Georgie explained with a small smile of thanks as Gardner pulled out the chair for her and she took her seat.
"In the technical aspect I would be known as a Supernatural Researcher and author Mr. Wild. I study and am very familiar with the things that go bump in the night you could say. I also teach a paranormal enrichment course at The University of Washington," Georgie explained as the waiter from the establishmentbrought over several plates of melted chcocolate as well as chunks of their finest chocolates.
"No theft on your part Mr. Wild undead...or alive," Georgie replied with a soft smile as she placed a piece of chocolate into her mouth gently. She adored the sweets here Seattle definetly needed one of these establishments.
"And you Mr. Wild? I am sure I am keeping you from a lavish vampire bride or two?"

Gardener listened to the girl's occupation. Wonderful, so was this turning into "Interview with the Vampire?" He'd both read and seen the movie and liked the movie better. Gardener had never been to New Orleans in his life, but the idea of a French Quarter intrigued him. If that was the aspect she was going for, then Gardener was going to insist they head for JFK and book a plane ticket.
"Well, I'm honored that I turned up." Gardener smiled as he selected a piece of chocolate. Placing it in his mouth, he considered it. There was a faint, faint sweetness, but it was stronger than some he'd had. All in all it wasn't bad-but that was from a being with no taste buds except for blood.
"I don't just go bump in the night.....I go bump in a lot of places." Gardener smiled at the girl as he studied her. So she was into the paranormal. Interesting. It wasn't something he saw very often.
"The women in my life are business associates." Gardener smiled, picking up another piece of chocolate. "The day I settle down with a vampire bride will be quite an event. So have you come to New York for research purposes? Or is this a teaching obligation?"

Georgina watched Gardner carefully as he selected a piece of chocolate and continued on talking. He was fascinating just as she had assumed he would be. There was a certain amount of flair that went along with Gardner's "tale" and she was glad that it seemed to carry over to real life as well.
"Quite an event indeed," Georgina replied with a soft smile. The thought of a full blown vampire wedding was amusing no doubt and something she had never really considered. Their devotion which mean so much more since it would literally be a love for eternity not just a love held within the bounds of humanity.
"It was a teaching obligation but now that it's done with it has become a matter of...personal gain?" Georgina explained with a slight smile as she selected a piece of chocolate and slipped it into her mouth. The taste was automatically divine; they seriously needed one of these back home and then she would never have to leave Seattle.
