"Matt, i don't know man, she makes me really happy but i don't know if i can stay with her. what if she ends up hurt? or even worse.." i trailed off as we pulled into the backup warehouses parking lot"Boss, if you love her, don't leave her, i know you've had problems with this in the past, but just because she was like that, it doesn't mean that Melody will be. You deserve happiness, even if you don't believe it," he gave me a pat on the back and a small smile
"But i don't want to be the reason that she doesn't make it to live the life she deserves." i sighed
"Love doesn't come easy man," he jumped out of the car and strode into the warehouse, leaving me to my own thoughts.
I don't know how to feel, i can't love her, everybody i love always ends up dead, no matter how hard i try to prevent it, but i do love her, and i can't change that. she means a lot to me and if i lost her i don't know what i'd do. Her smile brightens up my day, especially when i'm the reason for it, but sometimes i can't help but wonder, if i do the same for her?
What happens if this is all a one sided love story? the typical "bad guy falls for sad girl and helps her see the light in herself again even though he can't see it in himself", one of those romances doomed from the start. I want my story to be real. original. but usually, getting what you want always comes with a price, and i'm not ready to find out how much I'd have to pay.
Zooming out of my thoughts, i opened the car door and jumped out, making sure to lock the door and made my way to the warehouse.
Before going in, i snapped my head around to check nobody was following me. Squinting in every place possible, i entered once i was satisfied with my observations.
The music was low and everybody was gathered around the table in the middle of the room, chatting loudly before becoming silent once i entered. Everybody's eyes averted to me as i sat down at the end of the table.
"I'm being followed. And i have an address, i need you all to go out and find out who it is. Ill follow behind and make sure nobody else is following. Ian." i pointed to him and shot him a look, "you'll come with me, along with Matt and Andrew, the rest of you, gather your weapons and use the backup car, don't let yourself be followed, shortly after, we'll leave and follow behind, don't stop unless I signal for you to do so, is that clear?"
"Yes Boss," they all chimed, with a slight tip of their head as they parted
"David." i stated, once everybody had went their separate ways
"Yeah man?"
"I need you to go to my house and take care of Melody, let her know i sent you so she won't be frightened, take Simon with you and make sure you bring your guns."
"of course Boss, but why? wasn't she just an accessory to get The Dragons to retaliate?" he questioned, fixing his shirt over his large, bulky arms
"She was. Things change." turning around, i walked into my office and grabbed my leather jacket, stuffing extra bullets into the pockets before grabbing my phone and leaving, making sure to lock the door.
"Ready?" i asked once we were all standing in the middle of the room, bags ready. David and Simon had already left, Melody had phoned me asking if i had asked them to come, she seemed shaken up but i didn't let it faze me, she's strong, she can do this.
"Ready." they said in sync
"Let's go." i nodded, before i could take another step, I stopped at the cold metal pressed against my head
"I'm afraid I can't let you do that."
enjoy this update!! i'm sorry i'm being crappy at updates idk where this story is going
