Hips and guns

0019~

____

Dressed in simple dress pants and a black collared shirt. My shoes a bit dirty from the grass and dirt I stepped on. Sitting near a body of water and a combination of sand and dirt, neatly placed torches and large curtains covering something.

I sat at the front row, this time in seats and tables as it extended to 5 rows back. People scattered around dressed in similar attire. Not to mention burning gazes all around me. I had come a bit early however that didn't excuse how these people glared into me.

Sighing I saw a waiter passing by as I flagged them down when a large man quickly rushed over to me. I could only stare as he seemed to be fuming.

What's with these people's deal?

He stood over me, his suit having a slight dent on his chest. A gun. " out, this is a private event" he grits out. I look at him a bit more before answering the large man.

" apologies but I can't, my fiancé is the dance-"

" I said get out—"

" sorry to interrupt but he his a special guest." I turn my head to the familiar voice. His eyes gave me an apologetic look and went between him and I." special guest? He can't be here sir." He huffs

" it's mandatory for our crew to have him here. If you don't like it tell your boss we are done with the show." He quickly interjected

I smirked a bit and straighten my back. The man started to look around before looking back down to us.

" fine, enjoy the show" he grumbled out

He walked off as Serina's boss plops down next to me. " geez, those people have been calling me for, 4 days straight wanting a show. I will never forget how scary they are. Oh! I'm sorry about that it won't happen again." He conceded

" it's alright, guess you'll just have to write me in the contract from now on" I chuckled

He nodded agreeing to my statement. Not bothered by the situation him and I drank a bit and even spoke a bit more. It was interesting to hear how he spoke of his dancers.

" but anyway, I'm still sorry that all could have been a disaster-"

" I don't mind, regardless I was getting in to see her preform. Remember that my own men are around here." I reassured the man He looked at me for a moment his gaze hardening.

" I know, and I know who you are Sokolov." His words came out slow and cautious. As if the slight raise of his tone would send me into a frenzy.Yet I stared at him. Narrowing my eyes to him as I cupped my hands together and leaned closer to him. Seeing his Adam's apple move I grinned to him." lovely, so you know-"

" sir, I'm sorry to interrupt but something with your people are calling for you" Glancing up, seeing one of my men. He gave me a slightly nod as I leaned back on the chair.

" it's okay I'll be here, and can you get me a drink stronger." I ordered My men nodded as the boss just quietly said sorry and rushed off. Closing my eyes briefly remembering her words from earlier.

She wanted to say my name...wanted to feel safe..she needed me.

It replayed in my mind till I drove her home and over to mines to change. It all only stopped till I had to do a few more things before coming here.

Slowly people started to come in. Still feeling their odd stares and odd attire since it was mandatory. Getting my self some food and making sure I'm sat for the hour or two I'm here before someone else sat down beside me. Not looking over till I saw a hand coming close to me.
