Tommy smiled as she responded with “You have no idea how much more I like you after saying that,” The way her smile lit up her face, and her cheeks gto flushed amde Tommy smile even more. Then she laughed and that made Tommy smile bigger. He loved that he could always make her laugh. He waited patiently for her ot answer his questiona nd she did with “Yes,” He was a little nervous about this. However, he knew it would be worth all the wait.

He gentely tilted his head as he closed the distance between them. Their lips brushed together. It was a delicate, sweet and soft kiss. He could defintely feel the sparks between them. Helen then leaned in deepening the kiss. He had pulled her closer when she did this. When they broke up Helen said “And now I really can’t wait for tonight to end. You’re going to have a hard time keeping me away from you until then.”

Tommy smiled at her. “That might be true, but when we finally get our time together… It will be worth it. Just remember that okay?” He smiled at her and pecked her cheek. Then he turned to the VIP section to see Lucy get punched by one of the guys, and Josie walk over to dance with one of the guys. Then he noticed Blake and that Lucy pulled him away from the others to talk. “Well, looks like I pulled you away just in time babe. That dude hit Lucy, and Josie walked away to dance. Glad you weren’t over there for all that fighting. I would have had to hurt someone if they hurt you.”

He had swept her off her feet and was carrying her. She was surprised by this and didn’t know how to respond by the sudden movement. The slight movement and/or touch of her leg sent electrical shock throughout her leg, as if she was an old television trying to find the right channel. She had wanted to say “my legs are asleep, I can walk” but she couldn’t find her voice.
“I liked doing that pose with you anyways.” . Feeling flatter and embarrassed by his comment, she felt like she was at the max of her social skills. Her mind raced as she held onto him… she was to close to this sexy glass of water. Unable to think straight anymore.

When things seemed like they may settle down a little bit this guy came out of nowhere and the guy just punched him and then shoved Blake for no reaon. He then yelled “YOU A++HOLES STAY AWAY FROM MY WIFE!” which confused him a little since she was with Blake or going to be, but also confused because Lucy was married so he figured this may be her husband. But then Lucy said “Not sure who your wife is dude, but you had no right to come over here and punch and push people you don’t know. Especially when you have no clue what’s going on over here!” which answered his question. “What the hell man? No one here knows who your wife is and I never laid a hand on your wife whoever that is, I only accidently hit her.” He said pointing to Lucy. Ryker heard Savannah ask Lucy if she is ok and luckily she said she was. “I know it was fucked up Lucy and I am seriously so sorry.” After Lucy went and talked to Blake, James left the VIP area and Ryker for real did find James attractive, and he did want to maybe get to know him or flirt a little even if he strikes out. He runs after james. “Hey sexy where you going? I know your pissed at me and what I did with Lucy was wrong but I am being honest you really are a sexy man and I can tell has muscles for days.”

Once Savannah heard Lucy say she was alright she went to Avon and she said “Hello Savannah. I don’t think you remember me, I don’t remeber if Morgan ever introduced us, I just know she talked a lot about you. Well talking isn’t the only thing she did. She … well I don’t know if the word applies here, but I think she groomed and manipulated you." and "Let’s go someplace private and quiet, this is serious.” which she nodded to and they walked off a little further from everyone so they couldn’t hear them but they could see the group and the group could see her. Before Savannah could say hi or anything Avon went into it right away and the last part of what she said confused Savannah “Ummm I don’t really remember you sorry, I mean I think we met once or twice for 5 minutes and I remembered Morgan mentioning she had a sister but didn’t really talk about you. What makes you think that she groomed and manipulated me?” She was generally confused. She then saw another man walk over to the group and start punching Ryker and push Blake away. “Great not again! another guy just walked up and punched a guy and then pushed another one. That must be Lucy’s husband.” Savannah was getting a headache from all this arguing and fighting and she was sobering up a little to which is not good for her. She will get somethin strong later.

While attempting to walk out of the club with Rayla around his arms, he was stopped by security. He had to explain that she hit her head and he’s bringing her to the hospital. When they saw the woman was willing, confirmed his story and didn’t look drunk or drugged or in any danger, they let them go. He carried her to Isabella’s car and let her down as he unlocked the car and opened the door for her. After she got in he put on he helped her with her seatbelt, assuming that she was a bit confused or experienced brain fog because of the head wound. He got in the driver’s seat, seatbelted up and started the car. “We’ll be there in no time.” He assured her and started driving carefully. Reaching the parking lot of the walk-in clinic he said. “There it is. Can you feel your legs? Do you want me to help you in there? I can go with you even if you don’t need help walking in there, but if you don’t want me in there, I can stay behind here.”

@SotaForgotten - Rayla

“That’s okay, I don’t even remeber the meeting you mentioned. I just can’t let my sister do this to you and live scott free, probably still draining you and using you like she always did.” Avon didn’t really care about the fight Savannah was lookin at. Especially since her back was turned to it. “Savannah, I don’t really care about the fight. I know how to get your attention though. Are you aware that my sister cheated you out of TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS back in 2008?” She really enunciated the amount to make sure Savannah heard it right. “I just found about it myself last night, and felt so guilty about it and so sorry for my sister grooming you and using you like this that I had to tell you about it as soon as possible … And oh god, it feel so good to finally tell you. This isn’t the only thing she did, I’m sure of it. Back then she basically admitted to me that she only befriended you was to stay close to Faust becuase he didn’t want to hire her for the show. I guess she found out that a young, impressionable teenage girl was just the thing she needed and she groomed you and used you, both financially and for services.”

After hitting the jerk who hit his wife, and pushing the biggest guy as the element of surprise to get ahead since he’s one guy fighting three other guys, some woman in a way too short dress with so many tatoos on her legs and arms she looked like his son’s coloring book had adressed him. “Not sure who your wife is dude, but you had no right to come over here and punch an push people you don’t know. Especially when you have no clue what’s going on over here!” Edward was confused at who this loose woman was and why she was butting in. “Listen here little lady. I’ve been told these f*ckboys are fighting over my wife, so I’d say I have a good enough reason to fight them. I won’t just stand by and watch some random guys fight over MY GIRL! I’d fight anybody for her, so you boys better get ready to fight me if you want her!”

Avon said her peace and gave Savannah a second to process what she just told her. Being groomed like she was must’ve been done so gradually during her most impressionable years, that it crept up on her and didn’t seem like what it was. So finding out somethig so life changing needs some time to be processed by people. Being betrayed like that is also not easy to hear about.
When she was letting Savannah think what she said over, Avon turned around to see the drama over some random girl Savannah was so enthralled with.
She did not expect to see her own husband fighting with some random men, with a woman standing with them. The woman looked a little bit younger than Avon, but had so many tattoos and a tight dress and a bunch of makeup on. She didn’t hear the first words her husband said to the guys, but she heard enough. “I have a good enough reason to fight them. I won’t just stand by and watch some random guys fight over MY GIRL! I’d fight anybody for her, so you boys better get ready to fight me if you want her!” Mouth agape, Avon didn’t even concentrate on Savannah anymore. She didn’t even hear one of the guys saying “We don’t know who your wife is” because she was already consumed with the thought her husband was fighting over some tatted up woman in a dress so tight her ribcage could be outlined, and she didn’t realize he was talking about her before she blew up on him. “What the f*ck! EDWARD! You’re not only cheating on me, but talking about it in public and fighting over her? How dare you?!?!?!?”

Post features: Josie, Blake, James

James POV

James started laughing like a maniac when he saw Ryker get punched by a random guy who seemed to just appear out of nowhere. He even pushed Blake and told everyone to stay away from his wife. He had to admit, seeing Ryker get punched two times in the same night was very satisfying. “Your wife?” James wasn’t sure if he was talking about Lucy or someone else but Lucy stepped in to say that no one knew his wife. Savannah saying that it was Lucy’s husband confused him even more, but thankfully it was cleared up. “Look we don’t know who the fck your wife is.” James said.

Suddenly, a random lady he had seen come into the group from the corner of his eye earlier was now speaking to the man who punched Ryker, saying that he was cheating on her. He knew that there was some kind of confusion happening and didn’t want another fight to start, especially involving two strangers who wandered into the group at the worst time. He stood in front of the woman and held her shoulders. “Look, I don’t know who you are lady, I don’t think any of us do, but I’m sure your man isn’t cheating on you. He was talking about another young lady in the group.” He pointed to Lucy. “So please calm down. We don’t need another fight around here.” As he looked at the Lady he noticed how beautiful she was but he wondered if he should say anything with her husband standing there. He knew that Lucy was probably going to go on with Blake and he was starting to feel a certain level of disappointment that he hadn’t felt in a long time. “You’re beautiful.” He decided to say. “But anyways yeah…you two need to go somewhere.” He wondered if he could possibly get her number to distract himself from Lucy especially since her relationship seemed bad anyways.

Lucy seemed to be saying her final thoughts about the argument to calm things down and now she turned to James.

“James… You are hot. I’ll give you that. Plus, it was nice of you to stand up for me, and to help me off the floor after Ryker hit me. However, you haven’t listened to me since Blake came over. I told you I could handle this. You still chose to put yourself in the middle.”

James nodded. It wasn’t like him to fight over a woman. They usually came to him first, but right now he knew that Lucy was leaning towards Blake and it was sort of breaking his heart. This was the most beautiful woman that he probably had ever seen, and she was being stripped from his arms. If she was leaning towards Blake, he would let her despite his body telling him no. “Alright, well the choice is yours. I won’t step in anymore. You can go with Blake.” The last part of his sentence was salty but he didn’t care if sge noticed.

He watched as she pulled Blake away to go talk to him and the disappointment set in even more. He turned to the lady and her husband as well as Ryker to see what would happen next with them and if he would need to calm things down.


Blake POV

Blake was happy when Lucy pulled him away from those fools. He knew he was the only right choice after all. He could already feel his body on fire from where the night could lead.

“Blake, first I would like to say thank you for coming over to me. However, you didn’t have to storm in like that. You know if you had texted me back and talked to me. Then none of this would have happened.” He listened to the rest of her words with a frown on his face.

“Did you really think I would text you after seeing something so hurtful Lucy? You knew that I wouldn’t like seeing you with those guys and you still sent it to make me jealous, just admit it. While I was wrong for what I did, you can’t deny that you played a part in this.” His words were slightly slurred and speech a bit louder than usual.

“Tell me that you did it on purpose, that you were trying to make me jealous. Say it.” He looked deeper into her eyes and slightly squeezed her hand while whispering.

She then cupped his face in her hands and told him that she enjoyed the kiss in brazil and wanted that to happen again.

“You know Blake… You could have had me anytime you wanted me.”

Those words set his body on fire especially when she added “why don’t we get out of here?”

He ran his hands down her backside. “Of course.” He was so eager to go home with her that the words could hardly leave his mouth fast enough. He was just about to take her hand when someone walked up to them. “Fck” he said in frustration.


Josie POV

While dancing with the random stranger, Josie had asked him some information about himself such as what his name was and other basic things. She had even let him touch her butt. Her back was turned to EVERYTHING that was going on, simply because she didn’t want to deal with seeing all of those guy’s fighting over Lucy and her just enjoying Blake acting like a fool instead of trying to stop it. She also didn’t think it could get any worse…until it did. While dancing she had turned to face the VIP section and watched in horror as the guys seemingly just stopped fighting and now a random guy was punching one of the guys who was vying for Lucy’s attention. “What the f#ck?” She watched as Lucy pulled Blake away and now the James guy and Savannah were talking to the two people who walked into the VIP section.

Josie knew that enough was enough and she needed to talk to Lucy. She did not care if she was going to try and skaddadle off into the sunset with Blake.

“LUCY! What just happened??? And why are you talking to Blake??? Don’t tell me you’re leaving with him after what he just did.” Josie looked between both Lucy and Blake, feeling disappointed in both of them. “We’re just talking.” Blake responded.

“Oh really? I just heard you say fck. Was I interrupting something? Yeah That’s what I thought. I think you need to go home because you’re clearly drunk and you need to leave Lucy alone.”

“Well, we’re both grown adults and we can do what we want to do. So one person’s opinion isn’t going to stop anything and it’s not your business.”

“Actually it is my business because you ruined the girls night out I was having an-”


James POV

James saw that Lucy’s friend was interrupting the conversation which he thought was a good thing. He let out a breath he didn’t know he was holding. He decided to walk up to lucy and whisper while her friend was talking to Blake. He put his hand on the small of her back. “If you ever change your mind, here’s my number.” He slipped a piece of paper into her purse, and walked away again. He saw Blake look at him with an irritated expression which made James satisfied.

She had tried her best to hide her face while Rowan had carried her out to the car, unfortunately life was cruel. She had to explain what had happened to the bouncer and confirmed Rowans story before they were even allowed to leave the building. Rowan was kind enough to get her in the passenger seat and even bulked her in. On the ride over, she desperately tried waking her legs up with her hands. She even wiggled her toes. Her focus was solely on waking her legs that she hadn’t noticed anything else. Feeling was coming back to her legs slowly. Before she knew it, they had arrived at the 24hr walk-in clinic.

"There it is. Can you feel your legs? Do you want me to help you in there? I can go with you even if you don’t need help walking in there, but if you don’t want me in there, I can stay behind here.” . She glanced over at him, fully curious to what this man had on his mind. Outside of Tommy, no one had ever offered to stay with her at a doctor’s office. Tears began to fill her eyes. She couldn’t help but genuinely smile at him. “I think I should be able to walk in alright. Thank you.” she really wanted to see more of him, but she knew she was already been a handful for one night. So she wouldn’t be surprised if he just stayed long enough until she was in the building before leaving her. Looking at the building before her, she really didn’t want to go in.

“If…it’s not too troubling…” , she hesitated, before she continued “could I have you wait here while I go in?”

“could I have you wait here while I go in?” He nodded. He knew it would be uncomfortable for her to have some old strange man be in there with him. “Wait a bit.” He gently grabbed her hand to get her attention and to stop her from opening the door and leaving yet. He took a marker and wrote on her palm. “Just in case you need me, so you can reach me faster.” It was his cell number he wrote on the front of her hand. He then added “Confusion and fainting are one of the sympotms of a concussion, so if you’re confused or if you faint again and are worried to be alone in there, worried you’d faint or forget what happened and uncapable of then explaining it to the doctor … Just call me. I’ll be here.”

“Look, I don’t know who you are lady, I don’t think any of us do, but I’m sure your man isn’t cheating on you. He was talking about another your lady in the group.” Avon rolled her eyes at the annoying man who came close to her. "I’m sorry and who the hell are you? Stop patronizing me, and stop trying to cover up for my husband. It’s obvious he’s cheating since he joined the fight over Lucy or whatever her name is, and he said ‘I won’t just stand by and watch some random guys fight over MY GIRL!’ If that’s not being caught red handed, I don’t know what is! Don’t butt in in places you don’t belong."She said. Then in the most disgusting, f*ckboyish way he said. “You’re beautiful.” To which she responded by slapping him. “You’re not handsome enough to tempt me. Maybe you’d be more attractive if your personality weren’t so repulsive.” With tears welling up in her eyes, she looked at Edward and crossed her arms. Although she said it was plain what he was doing there, she crossed her arms awaiting an explanation, mmore out of desparation and hope than anything. Although she was convinced there could be no explanation compelling enough, deep in her heart she hoped there was, hoping to avoid the hardest thing a woman in this situation has to do. She so hoped this wasn’t real and that she woul soon wake up in his arms, withouth all of this having happened. She so hoped it was a dream. Of course, if she woke up now, there would still be that bit of heartbreak and unresolved anger from the dream still lingering even as she would wake up and realize her husband never cheated … That’s why she’s so angry when waking up from a dream like that.

Lucy had ignored the strange man. Then his wife talked too. She was confused by this couple. She couldn’t believe everyone seemed to think that the strange @$$hole was her husband. She had walked away with Blake to talk. She knew this made James mad, or well sad maybe. Lucy and Blake were away from everyone else talking. Blake said “Did you really think I would text you after seeing something so hurtful Lucy? You knew that I wouldn’t like seeing you with those guys and you still sent it to make me jealous, just admit it. While I was wrong for what I did, you can’t deny that you played a part in this.” She wasn’t gonna stand for him saying this to her. She only sent that picture because he didn’t respond to the second one she sent of herself.

“Blake, I didn’t send that picture till right before you showed up in the VIP section. One, I didn’t know you were here. Two, I sent that because you hadn’t answered my other messages. Well, other than my first one. I didn’t say I didn’t have a role in it, Blake. I’m saying if you would have texted me back in the first place…” She sighed out of frustration that he really thought that low of her or seemed to think that low of her. Then he said “Tell me that you did it on purpose, that you were trying to make me jealous. Say it.” She looked at him “Yes… Okay, I did send you the picture of me and the two guys to make you jealous, but I didn’t know you were here. I didn’t know you would storm over there like that. I do have to admit… It was sexy.” She smiled and winked at him.

She couldn’t help but smile as he ran his hands down her backside. His touch sent fire through her whole body. They were just about to head out when all of a sudden Josie came storming over leaving the poor guy alone on the dance floor. Josie came over and said “LUCY! What just happened??? And why are you talking to Blake??? Don’t tell me you’re leaving with him after what he just did.” Then Blake responded before she could by saying “We’re just talking.” Before Josie could continue Lucy said “What just happened??? You want to know what just happened!” She looked at Joise dead in the face “I sent Blake a photo. Then he came over there and started that. Which you saw. However…”

She paused for a moment before continuing. She took a deep breath “Ryker tried to punch Blake, but punched me. He hit me so hard I fell to the floor. Then Blake went after him for hitting me. James stopped it, and helped me off the floor. Then some random guy came over and punched Ryker and pushed Blake thinking they were fighting over his wife. Then his wife came over thinking her husband was cheating on her or some bull$h!t. I then proceeded to tell them all they needed to stop the crap. Then I pulled Blake over here to talk with him and tell him what he did wrong one on one.” She shook her head then Josie decided to continue anyways.

Josie said “Oh really? I just heard you say fck. Was I interrupting something? Yeah That’s what I thought. I think you need to go home because you’re clearly drunk and you need to leave Lucy alone.” Then Blake came back with “Well, we’re both grown adults and we can do what we want to do. So one person’s opinion isn’t going to stop anything and it’s not your business.” Lucy had seen James walk over to them as Josie and Blake talked. He walked over as soon as she said what she did. James place his hand on the small of her back as he slipped a paper in her purse and whispered “If you ever change your mind, here’s my number.” Lucy smiled at him.

Then she heard Josie say “Actually it is my business because you ruined the girls night out I was having an-” Lucy looked at the floor. She decided she needed to butt in. “I ruined girl’s night… Okay? It was truly my fault since I sent Blake a picture to make him jealous. However, I didn’t know he was here. I figured he was at home. If I had known he was in the club… I wouldn’t have been that… childish.” She was disappointed in herself. Lucy then looked back up to Josie “Josie, while I love you… I can talk for myself. I don’t need you to tell someone to leave me alone. If I don’t want them to talk to me then I can say that. I appreciate you though.” She said to be honest with her.

Ezra raised an eyebrow, intrigued by Cole’s revelation. “Hyde, huh?” he said, his voice laced with amusement. Ezra’s eyes widened with recognition. “Wait, Isaac? The Isaac Hyde?” Ezra picked up the bar, started his set, looking up at Avery as he spoke. “You know who Isaac is? Rockstar whose band fell apart or something? I definitely have a song or two saved from him.” Ezra’s eyes slipped back to Cole, he let out an impressed whistle. “Name dropping already?” Ezra teased, because Ezra was also a bodyguard by profession and would never Willy Nilly give out a clients name.


Ezra’s eyes lit up with interest as he leaned in, trying to appear nonchalant. “Networking is one hundred percent necessary in this business. I’m sure you’ll fit right in though, Avery. I’ll make sure to keep an ear out for you.” He made a mental note to dig up more information on Avery. “I’m not sure who is running, but I will go and see what it’s about.” Ezra’s eyes flicked to Cole, taking in the charming smile and easy demeanor. Ezra made another mental note to run a more thorough background check on the bodyguard, just in case. “Oh, don’t worry about it too much, Cole. No offense to you, Avery—but it’s for the stars or rich to gain more attention and be ‘mayor’ for a day. Probably a fun event if you’re not on the clock as a bodyguard,” He chuckled lightheartedly, with a shrug sitting up after his set.

As the conversation flowed, Ezra couldn’t help but notice Cole casually pulling out his phone. After a moment of framing himself in the screen, Cole snapped a quick selfie and sent it off to someone, a grin plastered across his face. Ezra’s curiosity piqued and he found himself staring intently at Cole. “Oh, no no no. Take your phone out,” he said standing beside Cole. “I mean, unless it’s your mom or something, we’re retaking that photo. Get one of you flexing, all hot and sweaty, yeah?” He grinned like he was teasing, but was dead serious. “Trust, I can make anyone look good in a photo.” He chuckled a little.

Once he was done writing his number on her hand, she
looked at it, unable to hide the pure smile forming on her face. She had wondered how she would get his number. Now she had it, she knew she’d definitely use it. Looking back at him, she shyly thanked him and got out of the car. Making her way to the clinic.


** Time skip **


She felt slightly annoyed when the doctor had told her she was fine, she’d just have a sore spot for a couple of days. She had already figured this but was still thankful there wasn’t anything else. She had walked out of one set of doors before she walked over to the inner wall, leaned against it, and took off her shoes. The instant relief and the coldness of the hard ground had felt amazing. She picked her shoes up with her other hand and walked out of the second set of doors. The cold air sent chills through her.

She looked around, not sure where she was to go now, since she didn’t have her phone on her nor any money. Getting a cab was out of the question. While scanning the area, her eyes landed onto a familiar vehicle and the person inside of it. She gasp when she realized it was Rowan. She walked over to the driver’s side and leaned over as he rolled the window down. “what are you still doing here? I thought you would of left after…” she trailed off as her mind raced with the memory of him carrying her not that long ago. She blushed as her eyes wavered down a little before snapping back to his face. "He’s really good looking but he’s so much sexier closer… I wonder if he’s… she pushed her thoughts aside as she was curious to hear why he had stayed. “you’ve waited almost two hours for me?” , she whispered almost to herself. She wasn’t expecting an answer from him when she asked.

Josie knew that Lucy was just trying to make an excuse for her behavior but she was an adult so there was nothing she could do about the situation. What she was more focused on however was when Lucy said that the two strangers started arguments and one of them even punched someone. Josie immediately looked behind her at the man and woman who were the husband and wife and immediately walked over there, her eyes dead set on the wife. “HEY YOU!” She went behind her and started pushing her out of the VIP section. “Get out of our VIP section! You don’t belong here!” She even pushed her into the husband. “YOU HAVE NO BUSINESS BEING IN OUR VIP SECTION AND PUNCHING PEOPLE YOU DONT KNOW! GET OUT AND GO FIX YOUR MARRIAGE SOMEWHERE ELSE.” With a final shove, she pushed the lady out of the VIP section almost making her fall over. Then, Josie started walking away. “I’m going home, the girl’s night out is ruined, I’m pregnant and my feet hurt from dancing. I guess It could be a slumber party at my home. Come on Zeke.” She gestured for Zeke to follow her out of the club.


Josie sprayed some perfume on her neck while looking into the bathroom mirror. Then she walked down the long staircase to the living room where Zeke was sitting. The truth was, she had forgotten she said anything about a slumber party so if some guests decided to come over she wouldn’t even know. “How do I look?” She asked, standing in front of Zeke. Then she sat down next to him and turned on the tv. She put her legs in his lap without even asking and then looked at her phone. She started looking at new posts from her ex - friend Beck Dawson, and the drama she was going through on Instagram.

Time went by slowly as he sat in the car in the cold, dark parking lot. It seemed like since she walked in time stopped. Then after almost two hours, she walked out. The wondows were a bit frosted so her figure was blurry, but he recognozed her by her bouncy red hair and tight green dress. He turned on the car so it warmed for her and to defrost the windows. She seemed to be confused he was there. She walked over and he cranked down the window. She came close enough to him that he felt the warmth from her that lingered from the inside of the hospital. “What are you still doing here? I thought you would of left after …” He realized him waiting might’ve been creepy and she maybe hoped hed be gone the time she was done. He felt guilty for making her uncomfortable. “You’ve waited almost two hours for me?” He nodded, sheepishly.
"Well … Yeah. I said I’d be out here if you needed me. But I don’t need to be anymore … I’ll call you a cab and leave, if you want me to?. He offered in case she felt uncomfortable around him, or didn’t want to be alone with somebody who is basically still a stranger to her. She didn’t say much, but it was her actions that meant more than words. She walked to the other side of the car, opened the door of the passanger seat next to him, got in a put her seatbelt on.
He gave her a sort of half a smile and said. “Where to?”
“Home.” She answered. He took out his phone and opened a GPS system. “And where might that be?” He asked as he handed her to phone to punch in either her adress of the street near her home where she would be most comfortable giving away.She punched it in and he put his phone on the dashboard phone holder so he could see the green line on the map and where it leads. He put on some music so the drive wouldn’t be awkward or silent, or both. He drove silently, trying to focus on the road while feeling this strong pull towards her, as if he wanted to turn his head and look at her. He would sneak in a glance here and there, but manily kept his eyes painfully glued to the road.
Then over the radio a particular song started playing. The lyrics made him question the choice he’s made about her.

Open your eyes and look at the day

You’ll see things in a different way

Don’t stop thinking about tomorrow

Don’t stop, it’ll soon be here

It’ll be better than before

Yesterday’s gone, yesterday’s gone

Why not think about times to come?

And not about the things that you’ve done

If your life was bad to you

Just think what tomorrow will do

He started thinking how this song applied to him, in that very situation. As if Fleetwood Mac was singing to him, telling him to take the chance with this girl while he still has one. While the song repeated the ‘Don’t stop thinking about tomorrow’ while they were stopped at a red light, he looked at her, still wondering if he should stop thinking about all he’s done up until that point. Was all his history up to now just … ‘Yesterday’ and was this girl his ‘Tomorrow?’, or was he just too hopeful?
He was still uncertain.
While the song was still playing, something else occupied his mind. He recieved a text from Isabella telling him she got home okay. He saw the notification and noted it, let it go unread thinking he would answer it when he stops and let her know he got the message. Rayla saw the background image on his phone. He’s had the same one for ages and she turned to him and said. “She’s beautiful … Is that Isabella?” He got a bit sad by it and said. “No, that’s my sister.” He remebered how Rayla smiled in the bar and how big of an apetite she had for life and how energetic and fun she looked, and he had to follow up with. “You know … The two of you really would’ve gotten along.”. The mentionen of her death was subtle, but Rayla still caught onto it. “Would’ve? Oh Rowan I’m so sorry.” He nodded, acknowledging it and said. “Thank you.”. The rest of the ride was silent, only the radio playing, until he turned the corner in a street with beautiful, big houses.
“Pull up here. That driveway there.” She pointed to a house. ‘Oh so she gave me her real adress, otherwise she wouldn’t tell to pull up in a driveway, but just on the side of the street.’ He felt a bit happy that she trusted him and he realized she didn’t seem him as the wirdo he thought she saw in him. He pulled up and she lingered a bit in the car. “Thank you for the ride.” Before she could turn around and open the door, Rowan said “Wait a minute. I have something for you.” He took off his seatbelt and reached for the glove compartment. Admittedly his face did come very close to her face while doing so, so it was no surprise when she kissed him. He did manage to take out the item he was looking for from the glove compratment before the kiss, which came as a shock to him. Looking at her, surprised but pleasantly so, he was overcome by everything about her. The way she looked at him with those beautiful big blue eyes, her overpowering perfume, the taste of her lipstick on his lips, her rosy cheeks and pink lips. He couldn’t help but kiss her back, instantly. But just as soon as he kissed her did he realize she doesn’t know what type of man she’s dealin with here. He pulled back and said. “No … I’m sorry, you’re a wonderful girl. Amazing girl … I’m a very bad man … I’m too bad for somebody as good as you. You’re just too good for me, you wouldn’t want me … Trust me Rayla, you’re too good for me. Much too good for me.” He blurted out almost with tears in his eyes, as if he didn’t want to say it … But he knew it was true. The item he took from the glove compartment were her house key. He put in them in her hands and said. “You dropped them on your way out.” He said as if he expected her to accept what he told her and just leave the car, never to see him again.

Avery looked interested when Cole mentioned who he was a bodyguard for. ”Yeah, I’ve heard of him. I like some of his songs. I may not look like it, but I like some pretty hard stuff. It’s funny when I’m listening to…like, Hollywood Undead, or something, and people are giving me shocked looks. I guess they don’t expect someone who looks like me to like that music. It just shows not to judge a book by its cover.” Ezra started talking about the mayor thing, and that happened to get ‘King for a Day’ by Pierce the Veil stuck in their head. Yep, thy were the type of person who’s brain could go on a trip in the middle of a conversation. Avery came back to Earth when they noticed Cole taking selfies. ”Personally, I’d be really grossed out if someone sent me a sweaty shirtless photo, but that’s just me.”

Zeke


This was one night Zeke would probably remember for a while. Especially since it’s not often he gets shut down the way he did by the beautiful Josie. Zeke couldn’t believe she just walked away from him on the dance floor to go yell at people. However, this just made him more intrigued by her. She was a beautiful blonde that ticked all his boxes off. She did let him touch her butt. She was definitely sending mixed signals. When she walked away from him, he did follow her somewhat, but not like a lost puppy. He had stayed back a little distance. However, when Josie said “I’m going home, the girl’s night out is ruined, I’m pregnant and my feet hurt from dancing. I guess It could be a slumber party at my home. Come on Zeke.” Well, he was close enough to hear her. He smiled “Yes ma’am. Whatever you want.” He said as he followed her out the club like a lost puppy.


Zeke went home to Josie’s mansion. It was probably the nicest house he had ever been in if he was being honest. Well, other than his of course. Josie had shown him to the living room. He sat on the couch as she retreated upstairs. He watched her hips sway as she went upstairs. While she was up there changing clothes or whatever. He waited patiently on the couch. Zeke was caught off guard when he heard her say “How do I look?” He hadn’t heard her walking back in so when he heard her voice; it scared him a little. However, he didn’t let it be known that it scared him. He slowly looked up at her with a smile upon his face. Before even looking her up and down or really seeing her outfit. He looked her in the eyes and replied “You look like a beautiful angel.” He said being honest with her. Sure he has slept with hot women before.

However, Josie was on a different level. After speaking, he then looked her up and down. He wiped the fake drool from his lips as she sat down beside him. Josie then turned the tv on and put her legs in his lap without even asking. He just smiled at her and held her legs in his lap. He kind of wished he was holding more than her legs. He really wanted her cuddled with him on this couch, but her head on his shoulder or maybe her head in his lap. Not in a sexual way, just for the romanticness of it. As he held her legs she pulled out her phone and was looking at something intensely. So, he decided to speak, or well, offer to listen. “Hey Josie, you okay? If you want to talk about something… I’m here. I don’t mind listening.” He could tell so much was going through her mind. He thought pregnant women were just radiant and beautiful. However, Josie was more than that. He wasn’t sure what it was about her that made him want to be different. He had remembered hearing her say something about turning their girl’s night into a slumber party. So, he figured he would get some one on one time in while he could before anyone else showed up.

Cole had finished talking to Avery and explaining to them how to spot someone. Cole noticed Ezra raised an eyebrow as he said *“Hyde, huh?" Then Cole watched Ezra’s eyes widen like he realized who Cole was talking about as he said “Wait, Isaac? The Isaac Hyde?” Cole nodded at him. He knew he probably shouldn’t name drop, but that was also his friend. So, he didn’t see the problem with saying it. He looked at Avery and asked if they knew who Isaac was. Of course Avery knew who he was. Who didn’t. Then Ezra looked back at Cole and said “Name dropping already?” Cole decided to say “Is it really name-dropping if they are your friend?” He asked since he was new to the bodyguard life. Ezra then explained more about this election thing and Cole nodded.

Then he felt both sets of eyes on him as he texted Savannah back and sent her a selfie. He only did it because of what she said. He didn’t usually send any of him all sweaty to anyone. However, since she said something about him looking sexy and sweaty he figured why not show her. As he stood there his phone buzzed. Right as he was about to read it Ezra spoke “Oh, no no no. Take your phone out, I mean, unless it’s your mom or something, we’re retaking that photo. Get one of you flexing, all hot and sweaty, yeah?” This made Cole laugh some. “Well, firstly my mom is dead dude, and even if she was alive… I wouldn’t be sending her a picture of me working out.” He chuckled at the thought. “It’s… well it’s for the girl I’m going to ask to be my girlfriend on our next date.” He admitted to Ezra. Then Avery said ”Personally, I’d be really grossed out if someone sent me a sweaty shirtless photo, but that’s just me.” Cole understood this, but Savannah had asked for it in a way.

“I get that Avery, I don’t usually send pictures of me working out to anyone to be honest. However, she texted saying bet you look sexy all sweaty. So, I figured why not let her see.” He chuckled again. He looked to Ezra as Ezra said “Trust, I can make anyone look good in a photo.” Cole looked at him and said “If you want to take a picture with me just ask bro. I think I do good on my own.” He chuckled. It was the way Ezra said it that made it sound a little conceited. He then decided to take a picture with Ezra anyway. He handed his phone to Ezra to take the pic of them together. After he took the picture with Ezra. Then he finally read the message from Savannah.

Aww baby your so sweet you know that, and of course it’s only for my eyes. I am not sharing it with anyone and you better not be sending that to any other girls! Plus if you did I would have to hunt them down and fight them and it would not be pretty let me tell you that. I miss you though and want to see you soon baby.

Cole wasn’t sure why she said something about him sending it to others. She was the only one he wanted, and he has even told her that a few times. It made him wonder if it was like his last relationship… Where she said things like that because she was doing those kinds of things. Then he shook it off and figured she was just saying. He then responded to her.

I’m just me, baby. Why on earth would I send it to anyone else when you are the only one I want? I miss you too, and I feel the same. I would love to see you soon.

Beck laid in bed, her brown strands strewn out on the white covers as she thought of the events that took place at the theater. She closed her eyes, and lightly licked her lips.


Flashback

She watched Shaun get up from his chair and walk down the theater, until he exited the door. Knowing that he was going to the bathroom, As if on cue she rose up from her chair and said to Lysander, “I’ll be right back.” Then rushed down the theater to the door he went out of. She pushed open the door and once she saw him down the hallway, her eyes immediately widened and her already quickened heartbeat from running sped up even more. They were the only two in the hallway. It was quiet which was why the sound of the door opening caused him to turn his head. Beck stood there looking at him. This was the most nervous she had felt when it came to a guy. She wasn’t sure if he was looking at her and judging her, wondering why she had followed him. She wasn’t sure if he even wanted to see her, still, she began walking. She hesitated a bit and swallowed, then started walking again. Now standing in front of him, she looked into his eyes, searching for anything that could tell her his feelings. Without a word, she gently kissed him. For some reason, It felt like the first time even though she already kissed him before. She frowned, making the kiss go on longer than intended, but she kept her hands at her sides. When she was done, she turned around and quickly went back into the theater, feeling embarrassed. The movie was just about to be over and she and Lysander left shortly after when the credits ran.


Beck swallowed and slowly opened her eyes, facing the ceiling above her. She could still feel the kiss lingering on her lips. It felt like a fairytale for some reason. Even her heart started beating a bit faster. She didn’t know if that moment would lead anywhere but she kept it close to her heart not wanting to let it go, still not knowing if she should say her true feelings to Shaun. Beck sat up in bed in a criss - crossed position and picked up her phone that was laying beside her. She started scrolling through Instagram and stumbled across a new Instagram post from her frenemy Ashley.

It’s sad when you have a friend who can’t appreciate someone who genuinely likes them after so many failed relationships and they even get a fake boyfriend on the side. Then that same friend worries about me “stealing” the guy she didn’t want in the first place :kissing_heart:

Beck frowned and stared at the screen, knowing she must have posted that before going to the theater.

Beck decided to write a comment, which devolved into a back and forth with Ashley where she tried to put her in her place. Then something unexpected happened, Shaun appeared. He commented something at first, trying to keep the peace but then ended up asking Ashley to come to the Mayor election that he was running for. This made Beck audibly gasp at the screen. She immediately knew that he was trying to get her back for having a fake boyfriend but why? What about their kiss? Didn’t that mean something? She thought to herself. She immediately started typing back which caused Ashley to taunt her again. At this point, Beck was fuming and wanted to get Shaun to see that he was being ridiculous and would lose her again. She responded with “I’ll see you both there” and made sure to mention how she knew that he was trying to make her jealous. This resulted in Ashley taunting her again and Beck putting up a middle finger emoji. That was well…classless and her followers would certainly see all that she was doing, but at this point she didn’t care.

Beck decided to lay back in bed and take a picture of herself to show Shaun what he could be missing if he decided to mess up again. She pulled her frown into a normal expression and snapped the picture, then she posted it.

This devolved into Josie commenting “internet arguments are so childish!” under her post. This made Beck even more annoyed since Josie had no say in anything since they were not friends anymore.

After a few back and forth"s, Beck had enough and she let out a groan. She was going to call up Lysander to get back at them.


“Hey Lysander can you come over, I have something that I want us to do and I kinda don’t want to be alone.” She had a devilish grin on her face and struggled not to laugh.

When Lysander came over they both sat on her bed with snacks, feeling excited about their plan. After posting some pictures online and getting some responses from Ashley and Shaun, Beck felt satisfied, that is until she read a new comment from Shaun to her. “Nothing to be jealous of when you have such a loving boyfriend” Beck frowned and let out an angry scream, hitting Lysander’s shoulder. “Look at that! Look! Do you see what he said?” She looked closer at the screen. “He’s such an asshole. You know what…” She looked at Lysander. “I want you to message him. Tell him anything that will make him pissed off I don’t care.” She gave her phone to him, even though he already had his own phone. Thats how mad she was. Suddenly, she heard a new message ding on her phone and snatched her phone back from Lysander, immediately checking who it was in her Instagram Dms

Ashley:
"Beck what is wrong with you. Shaun actually likes you and you’re ruining it for yourself with your fake boyfriend who can’t even hold a candle to him. I don’t know if youre trolling or what, but you need to pull your head out of your a$$ because this is going to be another relationship in your long list of failed relationships.

Beck made a noise that could only be described as being between a squeal or a car honk. She turned to Lysander. “Oh my gosh, look at what she just said! She said you can’t even hold a candle to him. Who does she think she is?” She looked down at her screen, holding it to Lysander.

After seeing Josie go and force the two strangers to leave the VIP section, Blake decided that it was the perfect time to leave. He looked behind him to catch Lucy’s eyes, then he walked down the small VIP staircase and disappeared into the darkness of the crowd, walking through the flashing lights of the club that filled the building with blue’s and purple’s. As he opened the front door of the club, he didn’t bother to catch Lucy’s eyes again because he knew she was right behind him. He just stood there, feeling the rain that was soaking his hair and beard, looking at his car that was down the street. He finally looked at Lucy who was now beside him, his eyes asking if she was ready for what the night would bring.


The room was dark, except for the occasional light that shone through the window from passing cars and It was quiet except for the sound of them zipping past. Blake had forgotten to pull his curtain down because he was preoccupied with fun, but now, that fun was over. Blake jolted awake, and let out a groan. He felt horrible from a night of drinking. He sat up in bed and started wondering why he was sleeping near the edge of his bed instead of the middle where he usually slept. He looked at the timer on his nightstand which said 3am. Then he looked on the right side of his bed where he saw a woman laying there. Her arms were adorned with tattoos and… Blake could feel his heartbeat quicken. He knew exactly who that was, but how did they… He remembered flirting with her but… Did they actually…go that far? Then he remembered that he wanted it to happen and even went home with her. He wondered how he could be so stupid and started quickly putting on his robe (yes he’s naked) that was laying on his chair in the corner of the room, and went to the kitchen to drink something because his throat was dry and to clear his mind.

While making the tea, he wondered how he could have been so stupid to go home with her while she was married. He vowed to not go through with that if the opportunity came up again, because it was already a mistake that he was almost going to do that with her before. He made the tea and sat on his living room couch. It was dark and the trees outside the large glass window rustled in the breeze. The moonlight gleamed off of the blue couch, casting a shadowy gray, one that he felt deep inside from the confusion. What did this mean for her marriage? Would he be the catalyst of breaking a marriage up? He wanted Lucy to come out of the room and talk to him, but she was asleep. For now he was just deep in thought, sipping his tea while staring at the shadows from the plants being cast on the floor.

After getting into the car and pushing her address to her home. She didn’t really say much. So she looked out the
passenger window and watched as the world went by. While lost in thought, she hand moved her hand between her legs, flinching at the sudden coldness she felt. She hadn’t realized she was cold until she had felt her on skin. But she stayed like that as she looked out the window some more. Silently listening to the radio.

:musical_note: Don’t stop thinking about tomorrow :musical_note:

:musical_note: Don’t stop, it’ll soon be here :musical_note:

:musical_note: it’ll be better than before :musical_note:

:musical_note: yesterday’s gone, yesterday’s gone. :musical_note:

:musical_note: All I want is to see your smile :musical_note:

:musical_note: If it takes a little while :musical_note:

:musical_note: I know you don’t believe it’s true :musical_note:

:musical_note: I never meant any harm to you :musical_note:

“This is so cringe” she thought to herself as she went back to being lost in thoughts. Shortly after Rowan had received a text. The sudden light had caught her attention and she glanced over to notice the background picture. Looking at him, she said “She beautiful… Is that Isabella?” . “No, that’s my sister. You know… The two of you would’ve gotten a long.” . The way he said it, made her even move curious, but she knew better than to pry. “Would’ve? Oh Rowan I’m so sorry.” . “thank you” . She wasn’t sure what to say so she looked towards the window as if it held all the answers she needed…

It didn’t take long until she recognized her street. Her home. “pull up here. That driveway there.” . She had pointed to the drive way when he needed to turn. Once he had pulled up and parked, she thanked him and was about to get out when he said he had something for her and leaned over. Their faces inches apart. [Color=white] “is he going for a kiss?” . She leaned in and kissed him. She had wanted this more than the alcohol all night, but to her surprise, the kiss felt… different…it didn’t feel like all the other times she had kissed her randow night boyfriend. No… This kiss sent a shiver throughout her, she wanted him like no other. This was different and new and she wanted him. He pulled away. “No … I’m sorry, you’re a wonderful girl. Amazing girl … I’m a very bad man … I’m too bad for somebody as good as you. You’re just too good for me, you wouldn’t want me … Trust me Rayla, you’re too good for me. Much too good for me.” , he than placed her keys in her hand. “you dropped them on your way out.” . She looked at her keys and back at him. “thank you… I’m sorry… What? A bad guy?” . She couldn’t believe what she just heard him say. “If he wasn’t interested he could of just said so!” she thought angrily. But she decided to bite the bullet and see what he meant. There was clearly more to him, this kind gentle man seemed nothing but compassionate and gentle. “You? A bad guy? What exactly makes you think that? You have been nothing but compassionate and kind and extremely considerate to me.” .

"Being sweet tonight is nothing. My past, who I was, what I did … it’s horrible. My sister, God rest her soul, well somebody did something terrible to her. The man showed no signs of remorse for it even after she committed suicide because of it … He never showed her remorse, regret or respect and ruined her life. What he did has torn my family and my life apart. I was never the same after it happened and … for a few years I was contemplating doing the same thing my sister did, but … I couldn’t. Not because I wasn’t brave enough, but because there was this voice inside my head that said ‘Are you really going to take the simple way out, and let the man who did that to your sister, who ruined your happy family and home, get away with it, scott free?’ A short time after the tragic death of my sister, my mother died of a heart attack, but we all thought it was due to heartbreak. Due to the emotional trauma my father experienced severe memory loss, and is still institutionalized, because officials worry remembering it would make him a danger to himself and others. And I, had no sister, no mother, a father who didn’t recognize me, no friends and people who thought my sister lied about what my brother did to her, who also hated me. The only way out of that darkness I found was either to follow in the footsteps of my sister, or to seek revenge. And that voice is basically the only thing that motivated me to not wallow in my self pity until I decayed. That voice led me to the sister of the man who did it … That’s Isabella … And that voice kept telling me the only revenge good enough would be to do the exact same thing to him that he did to me, which menat I needed to target his sister. So I fake Rowan Huxley’s death and pretended to be Rowan Foley for the last 2 decades, and got myself employed by Isabella. For almost a decade I’ve been employed by her and this whole time I’ve been pretending to be her friend, while stabbing her in the back, writing articles smearing her name so that she could be just as hurt as my sister was, because that was the only way I could get to, and harm her brother in the way he harmed me. Even after I started considering Isabella a friend I kept on doing it, although then I developed a voice that kept telling me if I hurt Isabella to get to her brother, I’m no better than her brother was. And those voices kept conflicting each other, but somehow I always ended up doing the bad thing and writing that article. And after she found out, and I confided in her everything … She believed me and with time she forgave me… But that doesn’t change the fact that I was so consumed with my rage and grief and the worst of all … A huge appetite for revenge. I’m bad news Rayla … Stay clear of me.”

She listened to him patiently. She wasn’t expecting this. This kind, gentle man had suffered greatly. “that’s horrible…” she trailed off, not entirely sure what to say. But after thinking for a moment or two, she looked at him and offered a small comforting smile to him. "You may have done some horrible things…but from what I’ve seen and heard from you tonight… , she placed her hand on his, trying to reassure him. "I don’t think you’re a bad guy. You’ve clearly regretted your actions, which is more than Isabella’s brother has shown neither you and your sister.” she paused before continuing, “if you really did something horrible, and Isabella still chose to forgive you ** AND ** still considers you her good friend. That just shows how much she cherishes you. You were suffering with grief and depression. And you did what you thought was right at the time. You’ve admitted your mistakes. You’ve fixed your wrong doing. Rowan, Huxley, Foley, or whoever you are…you are a good person and I believe I’m in no danger from you.” . She giggled a little and planted another kiss on his cheek. “would you mind pulling into the garage?” she pushed a button on her keypad that opened the garage door, making way for the car they were in as she battered her eyelashes a few times as she pleaded with him with her eyes.
