Allison Winters

Theo drove her to Ricky's, the past few weeks had been hell for her and Theo carried out his bodyguard duties and totally ignored her.

She felt like her heart was ripped out and Theo danced all over it.

She'd developed feelings for Theo; very strong feelings and she couldn't turn them off, it hurt her so much.

And what bugged her was that Theo acted like it was no big deal, like he didn't have any feelings for her.

He acted like he wasn't the man who made love to her, the man who ate her badly cooked food, the man who kissed her.

He was a totally different person now and it hurt.

She watched his hands on the steering wheel, these same hands c-ressed her skin, they made her feel jolts of electricity.

Her gaze travelled to his face, he had an icy expression, his eyes were cold and faraway.

"Change of location, take me to glades club"

 She ordered, she really needed a drink, she needed to forget.

"It's a few minutes past midday, you sure?"

 He asked.

Oh really.

"I don't think that is any of your business, bodyguard"

 She retorted.

"I think it is"

 Theo pulled on.

"Your job is to keep me safe and not question what I do, I mean it's not like you care about me"

She spat.

"Allison. I mean Madam, I do care about you, I'm your bodyguard and"

 "Theo stop"

 She could lose her cool and pour out all the tears she'd being holding back.

"Just stop."

Theo Mcdonough

He watched her dance with some girls she'd just met.

He also spotted on of the girls ogling at him.

He locked gazes with the girl and she walked towards him.

She was wearing a very tight black dress with gothic makeup on.

The dress exposed her cleavages as the boobs looked like they would pop out soon.

He looked behind the girl and saw Allison staring; Allison had made him drive her back home so she could change into a yellow dress.

Under the club lights she looked like a butterfly, her bright yellow halter dress exposed her shoulders and back; she also looked very elegant unlike the girl who sat beside him who looked like a prostitute.

The lady in the black dress who was already sitted next to him at the bar nudged him.

"You look lost"

 She smiled revealing her perfect set of teeth.

"I'm not"

 He responded flatly.

"Do you wanna dance?"

 She asked.

"No!" "My name is Betsy

. What's yours?" 

"Not interested" 

"Well it's nice to meet you Mr. not interested"

 She took the drink in his hand and drank from it, then she gave it back to him.

The drinks quantity reduced and he could see traces of black lipstick from the edges where she drank.

He dropped the drink and asked the bartender for a new one.

Betsy stayed, yakking on about her last relationship and how she caught her boyfriend cheating on her.

But he wasn't listening anymore, something else caught his attention.

Allison was dancing with another man.

Allison's hands were on the guy's neck and the guy's hands were on her ass.

His grip on the cup tightened and it shattered to pieces in his palm, he could feel a little sting.

"Oh my Gosh. Are you okay?"

 Betsy shrieked.

"I'm fine"

He retorted.

Betsy handed him a napkin to keep the hand from bleeding; after he'd refused to go to the hospital.

He watched Allison laugh and drink, maybe too much.

"She is happy"

 he mused, or was she just trying to forget him.

He watched the guy whisper something in her ear and he watched her almost fall if not for the timely intervention.

The guy caught her before she could fall to the ground and he carried her from the dance floor. He rose to the feet and followed the son-of-a-b-tch.

They got outside the bar and the streetlights illuminated the dark streets.

"You don't want to do that"

 He announced and punched the guy before he could turn to face him.

Allison fell from his hands to the ground limply.

The guy held his nose as blood flowed freely from it like an ocean.

"What the hell dude? You broke my nose"

 The guy roared and stood up, pulled off his shirt ready for a fight.

"You can stay and I'll break something else"

 He assured and stooped to carry Allison in his arms.

Her body was cold, extremely cold like she was dead.

"What did you do to her" 

He questioned the guy who was tending to his broken nose.

"I didn't do nothing. She was drinking way too much"

 The guy said and walked away with his nose in the air; trying to stop the bleeding.

He carried her to the car and started the engine.

He took in the sight of Allison; her skin was turning blue.

What the hell? He placed his palm on her forehead; he body was as cold as ice.

He checked for a pulse, he waited, no pulse.
