Atticus' P.O.V:
We entered the small bar as Connor sat down with some guys he must have known.
San Antonio, Texas was the place where Connor knew everything and everyone. He was deployed here a couple years back.
I sat near the bartender as I set my backpack down next to me.
The bartender gave me a drink as I passed.
"What? You walk into a bar and don't drink?" He asked.
I shook my head as someone took a seat next to me.
"Hey Dallas." The bartender said.
I looked to the opposite direction to keep my face away from Dallas.
Why is he here?
"Hey." Dallas said.
"Last time I saw you here was about a month ago! What happened?" The bartender asked.
Dallas chuckled. "I was visiting my nephews at the hospital."
"What happened?"
"They just broke their legs." Dallas said.
He was lying. I know, because I was there to watch Maximus die. Preston was stabbed.
"Well, that's bad news." The man said.
"Tell me about it." Dallas muttered.
There was a mirror across the room at a precise angle where I can see what Dallas is doing.
"Excuse me?" Dallas asked.
I didn't move as he poked my shoulder. I ignored his calls.
"What's your problem man?" Dallas exclaimed.
The bartender came closer to us, "Mr. Atticus Carter. Here is your bill."
Dallas turned my revolving chair around as I faced him. "YOU!?"
"Me." I smirked.
"The hell are you doing here!"
"I would ask the same to you. Isn't Preston dying?"
"He's alive and well."
"Well that's a bummer."
Dallas pushed me off. I fell with a thud.
I hissed in pain as I looked up to see a gun in front of me, Dallas holding it.
"Two seconds before I shoot you." Dallas said.
"Not so fast partner." Connor smirked as he threw him back.
Connor took the gun from Dallas as he tossed it at me.
Connor punched Dallas multiple times until his nose started to bleed.
"Connor." I called.
Connor took out a blade as he dug it into Dallas' cheek.
Dallas yelled in pain. I ran up to Connor.
I tossed Connor to the side and watched Dallas run off.
There was a moment, a small fraction, that Dallas turned back.
And smiled.
Dallas' P.O.V:
I grunted in pain as I left the small bar and tumbled into my car.
I spat out blood to the side of the sidewalk before I pulled out my keys and started to drive.
