Neptune Grand, Saturday Morning, 8:34 AM

[dead_hooker_2]

A little known fact about Trina Echolls is that she is very much a morning person. This is something of a liability in Hollywood. "Morning person" just isn't nearly as good a career move as "night owl," since there aren't a lot of red carpet breakfasts, and no one is at all interested when you're photographed leaving Starbucks with a no fat half-caf extra foam grande sugar-free vanilla latte at 7:30, unless you're still in the clothes you were clubbing in last night.

So Trina doesn't often get to be a morning person, since even the most morningest of morning people has a hard time being bright eyed at 7AM if she went to bed at 4AM.

But last night she went to bed quite early, and this morning she got up at what her brother would likely consider an ungodly hour, and she drove to Neptune, arriving at a slightly later but still ungodly hour.

He should know it's her, when she knocks on the door to his suite. His sister has a quite distinct way of knocking on her little brother's door -- loud, sharp, insistant, and with just the tiniest hint of annoyance that there's even a suggestion she should have to ask to come in at all.

"It's something," she agrees, without saying what.

There's a knock at the door.

"Probably Anita. You should get that. I don't think you're going to have any trouble being nice to her."

Anita is, in a word, stunning.

She's gorgeous, and Logan's not quite awake enough to conceal his surprise at that. Most of it, but not quite all of it.

He introduces himself, and escorts the agent to the table where the folder is. "So, Trina's picked stuff out, I guess?"

"Oh, no, Mr. Echolls," she says, with a smile. "I've picked a few places out for you, based on what your sister told me. I think they'll suit you."

Trina stands. "I think that's my cue to leave. Have fun, little brother. Don't get into too much trouble."

Logan beams back at her. "Good to know," he says. "I look forward to seeing them.

He makes a face at Trina when Anita's back is turned. "I'll be fine."

Pause.

"Thanks." It's said quietly, but not insincerely.
