My Niece's Teacher

CHAPTER 5: Pity

DEUCE

        The weekend was here and Paige wanted to go to a slumber party at a friends house.

        So after dropping her off, I decided to head to the bar close by.

        I couldn't stop thinking about what Brooke had said and how brave she felt for talking to me like that.

        In a way, I must admit that she looked real cute all mad and with her arms folded.

        However, also at the same time, she needs to get it in her head that I am a grown ass man who isn't one of her students that she can just lecture and tell what to do.

        When I arrived, it seemed like I came to the right bar as I see a lot of familiar faces from other clubs that some I haven't seen in a long time.

        As soon as I walked in, every ones head turned to look at me and right away I said hi to some guys and one of the guys grabbed me a beer and we hung out and started catching up a little bit.

       It was good seeing a lot of them and while talking to one of the guys, I noticed Brooke sitting at the bar, by herself. She looked a little uncomfortable. So I decided to walk up to her. While at the same time, wondering why she came here. Didn't think she was the kind.

        "This seat taken?" I ask.

         She looks at me, "No, go ahead...." she stops herself when she see's it's me.

         "So what are you doing here?" I asked before taking a drink from my beer.

         "Enjoying a night out." She says.

         "Why here?" I asked.

         "Well, believe it or not, teachers like to have fun to." She says as she finishes taking a drink from her beer. She then turns and gets up off the stool. "Goodnight, Paige's uncle." She says and starts walking out the door.

         Though I noticed while walking out, some drunk asshole watched her til she left and then followed her.

         I take one last drink of my beer and start to leave.

          I'm not sure in why but I felt I needed to make sure she was okay. Cause even though I'm an asshole and sleep with a lot of women, I still don't hit or hurt them.

         As soon as I stepped outside, I began looking around until I saw them down a few buildings down. It looked like they were fighting.

         I started walking up and as soon as she began to try and walk away, I saw him jerk her back really quick by her wrists and tried kissing her as I heard her say, "Stop it Mr. Anderson."

         "You know you want me, just like I want you and your fat ass underneath me tonight." He slurs.

        I walked up and turned him around to face me by his shoulder and punched him hard enough to make him land on the ground and I leaned over him and grabbed him by his shirt collar and punched him again. Then I felt her wrap her hands around my arm and start to pull me.

        "Come on." She says.

       I then grab her hand and we head back towards my bike and then head to her house.

*****************************************

         Once we pulled up, she got off and looked at me.

         "Thank you for tonight. You didn't have to." She says.

          "Yeah well, I just thought I should. I don't know." I say.
