This was a request, it's going to take some time to get off the ground but hopefully it will get there. Another fiction about Johnny moving on with his life after the traumatic past few years. It begins on the recent European Hollywood Vampires tou...
After not hearing from Johnny for two days she decided to head to the gym. She couldn't mope around forever this wasn't high school. She jumped into her leased sports car and headed to the gym, dressed in black Lycra. Johnny meanwhile was sat in his house, wallowing in self doubt. He had majorly broken the guy code of messing around with a female relative of a very good and close friend and he didn't know how to deal with it, then there was the issue of the fact he actually enjoyed it rather a lot, AND she was a whole decade and a bit younger than he was. What a mess. He also felt extremely guilty that he hadn't bothered to contact her since the kiss making him feel like he was the biggest jerk on the planet. He had bigger things to worry about though as his children would be arriving tomorrow to spend some time with him and he was extremely excited at being reunited with them, so at least that gave him some joy.
"So call me if you get stuck but it opens 8 until late ok?" The tall dark handsome man said. "Sure I will! Thanks!" Meghan said cheerfully as the muscular guy walked away. She admired the card he had given her, an upmarket salsa club was opening that night and the handsome stranger's best friend was the owner. He had approached her as she jumped off the treadmill. She thought what the hell, she loved to dance, and this would be the perfect opportunity to meet like minded people in her new home of LA. It wasn't like she had any other plans, Sheryl was now flying in on Monday after spending a few days with Alice in Connecticut so she had a completely free weekend.
Later she text Travis and had arranged a lift to the club, she wasn't too worried but thought it would be a good idea for him to at least see where she was spending her evening in case she disappeared or something even more sinister happened. He swung by at 8, and banged on the door, she opened it and his jaw dropped "Woah Megs. Looking good." She smiled thanking him before he offered his arm to escort her to the car.
"Oh shit I've left my phone! Fuck!" Travis turned the car round and headed back down Sweetzer heading towards Johnny's house. "I promise I won't take long." "no worries!" Meghan said playing on her own phone. They pulled up at Johnny's and Meghan followed Travis in. She stood awkwardly in the foyer as nobody else was around before deciding to quickly check her make up one last time. She knew where the downstairs toilet was so headed there turning on the light and subconsciously leaving the door open as she ran her finger over her lipstick.

"Woah!" She heard and slowly turned. "You look incredible." Johnny said smiling. He had approached wanting to close the toilet door when he had spotted Meghan looking in the mirror. "Oh thank you." She said blushing. "Are you going somewhere?" He asked curiously. "Umm yeah sorry, Travis forgot his phone so we just came back to get it." "You're going out with Travis?" He asked failing to hide the upset in his voice. "Oh no.." she said her eyebrows furrowing. Surely he didn't think that? "No. He's giving me a lift. I've been invited to a party, well an opening night at a Salsa club!" Meghan said excitedly. "Oh?!" Johnny said as they made their way into the foyer. "Yeah.. it's apparently the place to be!" Meghan said tapping her foot awaiting Travis' return. Johnny was shocked, as far as he was concerned she didn't know anyone but him and his staff in LA, who had invited her to a dance club? "Who's club is it?" He asked trying to remain nonchalant. "Oh a guy at my gym, he invited me. His friend owns it, and he invested in it." Johnny's eyes widened. He was shocked she was going out with random men? "Oh well, umm have fun." He quickly disappeared leaving Meghan disappointed that they hadn't covered the topic of their kiss but also equally as upset that they hadn't spent more time together.
Johnny found Travis in the kitchen he didn't look like he was in a rush to return to Meghan but this worked for Johnny as he approached. "McGivern, listen and you listen good. Don't let that girl out your sight tonight. Don't let her know you're following her. Stay back but do not leave her alone got it?" Travis' eyes widened. He wasn't on duty and didn't work for Meghan but nodded simply to Johnny. "And make sure she gets home ok Jesus, she looks insane the last thing we need is some man taking advantage." Johnny grabbed a beer from the fridge and headed out to the garden as Travis slowly made his way out to the foyer shaking his head smirking, "Ready?" He asked the woman who silently nodded and followed him out to the car.
Travis "dropped" Meghan off at her destination and then quickly parked up round the corner before heading into the club himself, Megs had been right it was high end, and extremely fun. He was disappointed he was here working for his boss as there was a lot of women around that would usually be on the receiving end of his attention when out. He took a beer from the barman and headed up the stairs to the balcony area, where he could get a clear view of the dance floor, he watched as Meghan hovered by the edge she was watching the dancing intently and had a big smile on her face when a rather chiselled guy approached hugging her and introducing her to somebody else. Before long the initial man had grabbed her hand and pulled her to the middle of the floor. She started off slowly and unsure but soon got a feel for the music and boy could that girl move. Travis was impressed, and could see why Johnny was put out that his girl was out dancing with other men.
Meghan danced the night away, and for a few hours didn't leave the floor. Eventually she managed to drag herself away to the bar, where her male companion joined her. Travis slowly made his way round the balcony to get a better view, and watched as Meghan took a bottle of water from the bar man. She was chatting animatedly to the man in front of her, who also introduced her to a group of girls beside him. It didn't look like Meghan had a care in the world and Travis was starting to wonder what trouble Johnny expected her to get into.
Just before 1am, Meghan placed her empty glass on the bar and checked the time on her phone, she was shocked she had been out for so long just dancing, and talking to perfect strangers. Travis watched from afar where he saw her type what looked like a fairly intense text before she rolled her eyes at herself and deleted it before shoving her phone back in her bag and headed to the main doors. Travis slowly followed trying to not appear obvious when he watched Meghan hail a cab, she attempted to get inside before a couple pushed in front of her and essentially stole it. "Oh real mature!" He heard Meghan shout as the car sped off. He decided to make himself known, after all it was late October and the early morning hours in LA weren't famous for being that warm.
"Need a ride?" He asked cheekily. "What are you doing here?" "I umm went to see a buddy who lives close by thought I would drop in for the last hour but just saw you leave so do you want a ride?" Meghan smiled, for a second she thought Travis might have wanted to spend time with her but clearly he didn't and was just being friendly, was she that damaged by men that she could no longer read the signs? First the kiss with Johnny and now this? "Sure that would be great thanks!" Meghan said as they walked round the corner to the SUV. "Did you have fun?" Travis asked knowing the answer, Meghan was glowing, she had a fire back in her eyes, and her body was flushed from the dancing, "The best time. I forgot how much I love to dance," "That's good. It can't always be work and no play."
They arrived back at Sweetzer and Meghan said "Want to come in for a drink?" "I've heard about girls like you... you invite men in for drink and then expect marriage." Meghan rolled her eyes. "Hardly. I just heard drinking alone is bad for you!" She giggled "Ok fine.. better make it a double Goddard." "Will do." They stumbled into the house giggling and Meghan immediately kicked off her heels and headed to the kitchen. Pouring two large whiskeys.
After a few too many glasses, the pair were sat listening to music at the kitchen island when Travis blurted out "I can't believe the boss wanted me to spy on you tonight and protect you, you're like a little Angel, of course you weren't getting up to mischief." "WHAT?" Meghan said spitting her drink out.
