This is not a happy one you guys so if that's what you like skip this one

Jack had always Ben a bad boy always getting into something he wasn't supposed to or doing something his parents would never approve of so it was no surprise that as soon as he turned 18 his parents kicked him out on the streets.Funny thing was he didn't fail.

" Jack business is up by 2% and the information on the center in London is on your desk." My assistant said as she handed me my tea. I had just finished the review and was headed for a meeting when my cell sent off."hello' I answered as I walked toward the board room."Fine Jackie but just this once and I want you gone by the time I get there.yes .no later then 8. " I said ending the call.My little brat of a sister had somehow found me in NY and now she always needed something today it was to borrow my house ugh.

  The boars meeting went well and I headed to tie up a few loose ends before meeting my boyfriend for dinner I was finally ready to chain myself to one man after 7 years. I checked sure the ring was in my pocket before I exited my car and walked in the restraunt. I spotted him in our usual table but he wasn't alone. I went back to my car and put the ring up. Years in my past life had taught me this could end badly. Once everything o had minus 100 dollars was in my wallet I walked back in and over to my man.The big guy left but the look he gave Kevin stirred something inside of me.We enjoyed dinner and I paid by reditcard it was late nearly ten when I walked kevinback to his car.I went to kiss him and his face was full of regret as something hit me in the side of my head."Give me your money?" The guy yelled but when I reaches for my wallet he stepped on my hand getting it with the other and throwing it. "What is this Kevin I thought you said he always carried at least a grand there's barely a hundred here." The man said and Kevin looks frustrated searching my pockets and stripping me nearly bare. But I knee they'd fins nothing." Fuck well we can't let him go he knows it us Paulie let's just get out of here." Kevin said, pulling the Pauli guy." Fuck that I can't go down again." He said and I felt something in my chest and by my ear as they ran off.Not a minute later a kid came from the shadows he made a symbol like a phone and dialed 911 but held the phone to me.I yelled for help and the name of the restraint as the boy put my head in his lap.He was humming something and my eyes began to close but he patted my face.I was trying to keep my eyes open I could hear the sirens but it was hard.They were pulling me away but I wouldn't let go so he followed me in the ambulance my hand in his. I felt my eyes closing and his grip tightened and then I saw a light and I couldn't keep my eyes open anymore.

I woke up to a low beeping someone's hand was holding mine.I gripped it and a little head popped up.I looked into bright blue eyes and I rembered it was the guy who saved me but it wasn't a boy but a man he just had a smaller build." I have to tell them your awake." He said. But it sounded odd like his voice was rarely used. I reluctantly let his hand go and he dashed from the room coming back with a doctor and a nurse. They checked me out and went over my injuries as I held my saviors hand." OK Mr green your lucky you survived hell were surprised you woke up so soon." The doctor said and I nodded for him to continue.He sounded kind of far off but I listened.He seemed to notice and adjusted something on my ears and I heard him clearly."Can you hear me better?" He asked and I nodded." What I was saying is we don't know how you survived.The bullet was only an inch from your heart and the second by your ear.That is why you couldn't heat me we gave you a hearing aid to help you and with rest you should be OK.Now the coos want to speak with you alone." He said looking at the man next to me."This man saved my life so either they can talk with him here or not at all." I said. My voice sounding gruff.The doctor nodded and then left .I turned to the man next to me."thank you....." O said hoping he'd finish and he didn't dissapoint." My name is Lucas and your welcome. You've been in here for 2 weeks by the way all ovecer the news Mr Dominic banks." He said with a small smile a beautiful one at that.

     The officers interrogated me but o don't give them any names feighning memory loss but I could tell by the look in Lucas' eyes he knew I was lying. I would be sent home in a week or so as long as I continued to heal soon and I wanted Lucas to come with me." I have a life to you know and I've already been here for 2 weeks." He mumbled.But I was desperate." Anything you name it and its yours if you'll agree to help me through for the next 6 months." I said without really thinking. He seemed to be thinking but I was hoping for the best anything to keep my angel by my side for a while longer." OK I'll agree but I do all the cooking and I want a dog no 2 and you have to promise the second your quote memory comes back you tell the truth." He said and I nodded."done." He grumbled but agreed.

In no time I got used to having Lucas Lucy and Duke around. The crazy boy tricked me into 4 dogs 2 for him and 2 for me.While he got poodles I got pit bulls I never really felt I had time before buy dozer and Lily brought me a lot of comfort.And in that time I fell in love with Lucas and he me we were happy I had almost forgot about the incident that brought us together until a letter arrived threatening my life style I quickly had a memory recap and had both Kevin and his brother Paulie arrested. I rember sitting in the jury my dogs by my side and Lucas in my lap as they read the final words."On the count of premeditated attempted murder we find you Kevin Lowry guilty. Kevin turned to me in tears ." please Dominic tell them it wasn't true I didn't know he was trying to kill you please love help me.please I'm sorry so sorry." Lucas shivered in my laap as my gaze met Kevin's " sometimes sorry isn't enough." I said.
