SO so sorry for the delay.

*******

Theo Mcdonough His father was called captain by everybody; his full names were Captain Barrow Mcdonough.

Captain was a retired naval officer and he owned clubs where men were taught deadly combat and shooting skills.

The captain moved around with the aid of a wheelchair, the assassin who killed his mother shot at his legs rendering him completely immobile.

The captain scared him; he took a deep breath and walked into the captain's office.

"Captain"

He saluted and stood straight.

After some minutes his father finally spoke

"Are you nervous?"

"About what?"

"You know, about the next step we are going to take"

"No fath.. captain"

His father had told him never to call him father but captain.

Captain nodded and took a sip of his scotch.

"I left her home alone, I didn't tell her I was going out"

He said.

"Don't worry, Xavier's with her"

"Xa-Xa-Xavier?"

He stuttered.

"Yes, any problem?"

He shook his head

"No captain."

Was he just being distracted while they killed Allison?

"What was the fifth sin I told you?"

Captain asked sternly.

"Why are you?"

"Answer me!"

His father bellowed.

"Never fall in love"

"Louder!"

"Never fall in love!"

He yelled back.

"Love makes you vulnerable, love makes you weak, love is for weaklings"

The captain highlighted.

"So don't ever fall in love, if you do I won't have a problem putting a bullet in the middle of your heart"

"Yes captain"

He knew the captain; the captain didn't make empty threats and was more than capable of anything, even from a wheelchair.

"You can leave"

"Yes captain"

He saluted again and left the room.

He drove like a maniac to get home.

Rode the elevator to the apartment's floor.

He opened the door, Allison was sleeping on the couch and Xavier was staring at her . He balled his hands into a fist.

"She's very beautiful"

Xavier commented with a smirk on his face

. He felt like punching the smirk off Xavier's face.

Xavier stood up and picked his jacket.

"Don't catch feelings.

The end will be very disastrous, Xavier patted his chest and left the house.

Allison stirred in her sleep; He lifted her into his arms, took her into her room and placed her on her bed.

He walked to the door and turned around to look at Allison; she was sleeping so peacefully.

"The end will be very disastrous" Xavier's words rang in his head.

"Never fall in love unh? So how do you control love"

He forced a smile and closed the door behind him slowly.
