Jack had business in the racecourse. He had a box filled with tickets and dispensers in a briefcase, he walked around dignified, occasionally ensnarling a customer by pulling them close to him and speaking in a voice of persuasion, "Take a bet. who will win the race? Let your heart beat faster every moment your bet car takes a turn, and imagine the feeling of winning a bundle. It's all here, at the races. Take your bet. take it." He pulled the customers (male and female) so close that his and their faces were almost touching, lips half an inch away from each other. His breath smelt of peppermint and honeysuckle. Of course Jack, by nature, was an intoxicating individual. Go on, take your bets.

Gabrielle was there at the races as well, though her business was rather more different to Jack's. She was looking for someone, a dealer that handled illegal weaponry and in potent poisons, as well as other items for a more select clientèle. Right now though it looked as if she'd been stood up by the dealer. She was just about ready to leave and track down his hotel, in order to pay him back for his discourtesy.

But Jack stepped into her path, placing a hand on her waist and speaking to her in a more than friendly tone, "Wanna take a chance?"

Gabrielle reacted to this as she always did, by gripping Jack's fingers painfully tight and ripping them off her waist, twisting as she did. She flung his hand back against his chest and snarled angrily, "Excuse you! Did I say you could touch me? Did I? No, I didn't/ So, vaffanculo, you rude son of a whore." Despite one word being in Italian you could somehow get exactly what she meant by it anyways.
Ooc: Vaffanculo is Italian. Means 'Go do it in the ass' but it's used like Fuck Off. XD

Jack smirked at her, "A little fiesty are we..." He grinned, "Well... I've always liked a challenge..." He flexed his hand, "So... Would you like to place a bet? or would you like to, perhaps, get lucky in some other manner..." He said this so casually it would have dropped jaws.

Gabrielle regarded him coldly, "Oh, so you're crude as well as being rude? What a lovely combination." she said snappily. All the same she took a tenner out of her pocket and stuck it under his nose, "If I give you this will you go fuck your hand instead?"

Jack breathed in the scent of the money and let out the air with his mouth in a sigh. "I'll take the money, my sweet... who will you be betting for then? I suggest car 02 14 or 05. Up to you." He grinned, brushing his hand across hers to take the money from it, "lovely," He commented.

"I'll go for thirteen." she said sourly, noting the look in his eyes when he saw the money. In her opinion money whores were as bad as the regular kind, and this guy had the trappings of both. She pulled her hand away from his, glaring at him again.

Jack smirked at her response, "You'll loose." He told her, double meanings to it. "Driver for thirteen lost the last three matches and was only here because of beginners luck got him a high scoring. After the first match, he got lazy. his preformance has been dropping. Once again i suggest number five."

She threw her hands up in exasperation, "Fine, fine! Number five it is. Am I going to get this guy's biography as well? Perhaps a monologue on how how he likes puppies and kittens and long walks on the beach?"

"You got the looks, but it seems fairly obvious to me that you haven't got the smarts. Honey, Listen up. You gotta know the facts or you wont win anything." He grinned and leaned a little closer to her, although it wasn't a noticable ammount...

Even so, Gabrielle edged away, getting to a more reasonable distance. She yawned pointedly, covering her hand with her mouth. "So what facts should I know then? You tell me."

"Whatever! Just tell me how much I have to pay you to fuck off! And I mean fuck off, not fuck with me, in any sense of the word." Gabrielle snapped. She had a look on her face like she dearly wanted to strangle Jack in front of everyone, and bugger the consequences.

Jack laughed lightly, "Oh beauty, you are so entertaining... I think I shall play with you a while longer..." He caressed her arm with his hand idly...

Gabrielle jerked away from his touch as if his fingers were rattlesnakes. There was an almost scared look in her eyes and she moved away from him. "Don't do that to me. I don't want that."

Jack looked at her curiously and tilted his head slightly, advancing very cautiously with his hand once more, "Why? What's wrong... hmm?" a small pleasant smile swept over his face, "What's wrong with a little contact?" His hand froze centimeters from her own, ready for her response...

She crossed her arms in front of her defensively, turning her head away from him, tilting it forward so the shadows of her hair hid her eyes. "Everything. That kind of touching you do is dirtier than a cesspit, even if it doesn't look it. And that kind's only for sinners and whores."

Jack smiled a little at that, "What's wrong with sinners and whores might i ask? they have far more fun..."

"Everything's wrong with them, and they're all going to burn in Hell." Gabrielle said. She put down her arms and took a step forward until her and Jack were almost nose-to-nose. She gave him a steady glare, something she was very good at. Her eyes were a bright grey rimmed with black and made even her normal looks a little unsettling. "And you're going to burn right with the rest of them." she said calmly.

Jack didn't say much of anything, but tilted himself forward, his hands behind his back, and locked his lips with hers -- IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CROWD OF PEOPLE T_T. Jack has no shame.

Gabrielle stepped away from Jack with a little scream. She looked totally horrified and had an urge to start scratching at her arms with her long nails. Several of the ornemental vases and thign exploded in a fountain of pottery shards.

Jack grinned, not saying much of anything. He reached into his briefcase and retrieved number five ticket. "Here you go, thank you for your bet. Good luck." He said, and began to walk away slyly.

Gabrielle caught him by the shoulder and pulled him back, shaking him roughly, "Hey, you little f*ck! How f*cking DARE YOU?!" She started cursing in Italian at him, evidently very p*ssed off.
