Hi, This is my first story on Wattpad. My first proper attempt into writing something, I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed writing it.
Jacks the eligible bachelor who's career driven with his own hotels, Ashley's a lover of romance with a habit of hitting self destruct. He saved Ashley from a creep in a club, he was her drunken knight in shinning armour. With an online group slowly telling the world everything you do and slowly exposing hidden secrets can they learn to ignore them? Will jack and Ashley be able to live happily ever after when she makes her new passion into a career?

"I don't want to go out, jess" I try to resist the urge to agree, the truth is I really do want to go out.
"You've Just broken up with drew, you can't stay in all the time, Ashley c'mon"
"Urgh" I let out a grunt "fine, but don't expect me to stay out all night!"~~~~~~
Ashley slouch's down into the chair of their VIP area, throwing back shot after shot trying her hardest to forget this week even happened.
"Come to the bar with me, Ashley?" Jess asks, holding out her hand.
Ashley accepts it and together they head for the bar, squeezing their way through strangers.
"Drew is a prick" she blurts out while waiting for a bartender.
I nod my head in agreement "that's an understatement if I'm honest!"I couldn't believe the one man I ever truly came to loving could do this to me. To us.
"I hate him so much, jess. I just can't want to forget about him and no matter what I do I can't forget" I open my clutch bag and root for my phone.
"Please tell me you aren't calling him!" Jess snaps "I won't let you call him"
I find my phon and search for the one contact I need right now, holding up the phone to jess' eye view I show her the name "let's get this party started, shall we?" I ask with a smirk.
Jess' eyes light up like Christmas Day "Yes! Text him!" She grins before turning to order our drinks.-Ashley; hey, I need a favour-
I press send before taking second guessing it.
Jess and o make our way back over to our area with rounds of shots for all of us.
"We got shotssss" screech's jess, eager to start taking them she hands us all one. Then another.
-mich; sure, the usual?-
-Ashley; yeah. I'm at bar 66-
-mich; I've got a friend who can get me in, see you in 30 in his office. Top floor-I turn to Jess, who offers us all another shot "he will be her in 30 I've got to meet him in the office" I say
"Yes! This night just got a whole lot better" she smirks and we throw back another shot.||||SPOTTED: our "heartbroken"princess throwing back shots in bar 66. I thought she was heartbroken? Nothing a shot of tequila can't fix, am I right ladies and gents? ||||

Mitch is waiting for m in the office as I make my ya into the room.
"I've been expecting you!" He laughs as he takes a spin in the chair.
"You got it?" I ask him.
He nods "Yes. Obviously. But I thought you were clean?"
"That doesn't matter right now, Mitch. I need it." I say as I slump down on the sofa beside the door.
"Trouble in paradise?" He questions with an eyebrow raised.
I roll my eyes "not that it has nothing to do with you Mitch. But he's a cheat, with his own addiction who made me stop everything." I snap back as I put my head into my hands.What the fuck am I doing? I stayed off everything for a year, I gave a year of my life to a boy who didn't give a fuck about me.
"Room for another at your party?" He asks stepping closer towards me as he fishes for the stuff in his pocket.
I nod my head "we can always make room for our favourite rich drug dealer" I smile.
"A bump before we go?"~~~~~~
I stagger out of the bar with Mitch's arm around me to keep my steady, both more wasted than the other.
"I've... ive always loved you, Ashley" he says as he rests his arms on my shoulders.
"Shut yo Mitch, we're friends. Forever" I laugh, trying to make the situation a little less awkward.Mitch leans in for a kiss and I move my head away "stop it, we're both wasted" I say, trying my hardest to focus and stop the double vision.
"You looked so hot on the podium, I just wanted to be all over you" he says sways back and fourth.He leans in for a kiss again "stop it Mitch" I say stepping back away from him.
"You're a cock tease" He snaps "you're like the rest of them. High horses and daddies credit card!" He's really angry now.
"It's not my fault I don't want to get with a pretentious dick" I take another step back as he takes one closer, losing my balance I fall backwards.A guy behind me saves me in my fall before I hit the ground. "Are you ok?" His voice soft and caring.
"Leave is alone were in the middle of something" Mitch Shouts.
"It looks to me as if she doesn't want your unwanted attention, you leave her alone" the stranger says as I step away.
"What the duck do you know?" Mitch tenses and conchs his fists besides him.Mitch swings for the man but the starter swipes it out of the way, punching Mitch instead. I spin around and throw up all over my new heels.
Fuck!
I feel someone grab my hair and pull it backwards, the proceeds to rub my back.
"Are you ok?" He asks passing me a tissue as I try to pull myself together.I nod my head and accept the tissue "thank you" I say, wiping away at my mouth.
"Stay here. I'll grab you a glass of water" and before I get to say anything in response my knight has left.I root around in my bag trying to find some mints or anything to get rid of the smell and taste of sick.
~~~~~~
"It's jack, by the way" for a moment he sounds awestruck.
"Hi." I shyly say "I'm Ashley" I flick my hair off of my shoulders and and accept the glass of water he offers. "Thank you, Jack" I say convinced I've just gotten his nam wrong.
"Where are your friends?" He asks concerned.
"One of the VIP booths"
"Ahh. Yes. Must me the bunch of rowdy girls I've just seen" he laughs a little.
"Yeah, that's them" I smile.
"Come." He holds his hand out waiting for my to accept it "I'll walk you back to your friends" his smile gentle and genuine making me able to trust him.~~~~~~
