A job to do and a lot to explain...

I entered the hospital car park, looking around to see the entire band, even Andy, already waiting for me by the second window on the left to the emergency exit from the hospital.

 I strode over confidently, holding Andy's phone in my hand. The band all looked up, wondering if I was Andy's mystery saviour.

"Third day, third awkward circumstance." I smiled, handing Andy his phone.

"Thank you." was all he could say, I don't blame him, his jaw was pretty beaten up. At least his head wasn't bleeding anymore.

"What's your name?" asked Jinxx.

"Jo." I answered. All of a sudden, several pairs of arms were thrown around me and I was pulled into a tight hug by the entire band. They clearly all care about Andy, and had no idea what would have happened if I hadn't shown up.

"Thank you. Thank you so much." said C.C. all the others kept murmuring thank you over and over again.

"It's fine, really." I laughed, hugging them back.

"What exactly happened anyway?" asked Jake, as everyone except Andy let go of me.

"Well, I walked into the alleyway to see two burly men holding knives over Andy. So I ran up, and beat the shit out of both of them, after which they ran away screaming. I checked Andy's pockets for a phone as I don't have one, used the 'Emergancy Call' feature to call an ambulance, hacked into it, texted you guys, waited until the ambulance arrived and left, before I was asked anything. Andy, you can let go of me now." I reminded him.

"No." he stated and pouted like a child.

"Why didn't you stay, the police could really use you to find out who did this." Jinxx pointed out.

sighing, I said, "It's just bad for me to get involved." The real reasons I said that are:

1) Mr Madman would try and kill or capture Andy.

2) If the men were found, I would be questioned as to why they have been mauled by a panther. In Brighton.

"Why not though?" asked Jake, as C.C. and Ashley tried to help me pry off Andy.

"I can't explain it." I answered. Which in a way, was true.

"Jo, before you arrived, we were talking, we sort of need a personnel bodyguard, we were thinking about trying to find out more about the person who saved Andy first, but seeing as it's you, and Andy clearly isn't letting go, are you interested?" asked Ashley, leaving C.C. to try and get Andy off.

 I thought a second about what I had thought earlier. About how it's bad for me to get involved... 'Sod it.'

"Andy, I accept the job, do you want to let go?" I asked him, as the rest of the guys tried to hi-five each other, but instead Jake ended up getting hit in the face by the bad aim of C.C.

Andy let go and looked at my eyes...*insert swear word of your choice* I quickly looked around and said, "Right, so, what do you want me to do?"
