As soon as she knocked, and the noise resounded off of the door and into the air, Alexis regretted it. She hated this part of her job; the pushing and shoving. Digging up dirt and recounting things that most people wanted to forget. It made her feel selfish and as she waited silently outside a feeling of angst made its home in her gut just like it always did before an interview. 'This won't be too bad.' She coaxed herself, tapping her foot slightly on the door step. 'Just a few questions, nothing deep, then you'll be out of here.' She calmed herself down and released all her anxiety in one shaky breath, a technique she had learned from a Victims Anonymous group that she'd been apart of for a couple of years. Alexis raised her fist again, ready to give another sharp knock on the door when the handle started rattling. 

The door swung open to reveal a tall, rather audacious looking girl who could only be the oldest Williams daughter. [i]"Can I help you? You look kinda lost... And if your not, I don't want to buy anything so don't even bother..."[/i] The wind picked up, blowing Alexis' soft, brown hair into her eyes. Whilst nervously pushing the hair behind her ear, she shook her head and attempted a gentle smile. "No, not lost. My name is Alexis Darwin, I work at the [i]The Weekly Chronicles[/i]." Instinctively, she placed her foot in the doorway. She'd been working long enough to know that most people considered her "kind" pests and a door in the face was only to be expected from this young woman. "Before you dismiss me I'd just like to ask some questions, I know this must be a hard time for you but I just want to know some things about you sis-" Alexis broke off and peeked around the woman. The older man standing behind her was incredibly familiar, she'd seen his face in the paper before...

"Detective Rogers? You're the man who just solved the case of that reporter right? I did a story on that!" It hadn't been anything big, just a small column that Rudy had given her for practice. Biting her lips, Alexis raised an eyebrow. [i]Two birds, one stone.[/i] Perhaps she'd be able to get a statement out of him too. Resisting the urge to interrogate the detective, Alexis turned back to Miss. Williams. "I wasn't expecting anyone else to be here." Grabbing the satchel that rested on her side, Alexis pulled her notepad out and flipped to the page where she had scribbled several questions. "Anyways, like I was saying I just have a couple questions if you wouldn't mind, it'll only take a couple of minutes." With a pen tucked behind her ear, she looked up at the young woman, [i]Elise[/i], Alexis reminded herself, through thick eyelashes. Her clothes ruffled slightly in the growing wind and she felt a slight shiver move up her spine. 

With pursed lips she studied the girl. "If you wouldn't mind," she motioned towards the inside with a universal symbol of 'let me in'. "It's a bit cold out here."
