I sat down across from winston when a pretty red hair woman came over and asked our order. " I'll get it " Winston said as he winked I blush and nod. I look around the club / bar I guess it's the samething. It was basic with tables and chairs and a bar. " she'll have a steak and a coke " winston said i look back " medium well " I said to the pretty red. The pretty red walk away. " where are you from ? " Winston ask " sssshhhhh Ohio I just sssshhhh came to new york to get away for alittle bit " I said " personal ? " Winston ask " yes my sssshhhh my fiancé " I said " Oh you are engaged I don't see no ring " Winston said " shhh i shhhhh i keep it shhhh in my purse " I said Winston just stared at me I look around the room again. " so why did Jonathan take you here ? " winston ask " I don't know shhh he shhh he shhh said that everyone's assassins here " i said " yes " winston said i look over at winston and made eye contact. " thank you for dinner but I think shhh shhh I'll go back to my room " I stutter " but it hasn't even came yet " Winston said " room service it " I said as I got up and winston did too. " ah johnathon " winston said i whip my head around and look up and saw those brown eyes of his I blush and look away i quickly sat back down as john sat next to me. I stiffen as i felt his eyes on me. " I asked you to stay in the room and you disobey me " john said " john you took me from the airport sssshhhh there wasn't no reason for you to " I said as I turn and look at him. " I tried to help you ! " John hissed " I didn't need your help " I said " they are coming after you ! " john hissed " i didnt see anything " i said as I quickly look at winston and smiled. " sorry " I said as I lowered my head and look at my hands i felt them shake i was cold and furious. I could feel johns stare I didn't have my long sleeves all i had was a t-shirt and sweats. John reach over and grab my hands i pulled away but once I saw johns eyes soften I let him pull my hands to his mouth and he heated them with his breath. I just stared at him. " so you two what are the plans ? " winston ask after awhile we quickly look at him. I blush the waitress comes back with our drinks. " I was hoping she could stay here for awhile " John said " a while I'm going home in a day or two not awhile " I said " didn't sound like you was when I met you " John said " johnathon " winston warned. " johnathon you know that she would be in danger if anyone breaks the rules of course " winston said " what rules ? " I asked as I look between winston and john. " later " John said as he look at winston. " then what do you suggest ? " John ask with a sigh like he was tired. " she could go home with you " winston said i was taking a drink and felt the liquid go down to my lungs " wrong pipe " I thought as i choke john slap me on the back a couple times I put my thumb up as I cough " I'm okay sorry " I said " it's alright " winston said " she can't come to my home.. it's a mess " john said not looking at us I quickly look over at winston concern for john. He look so upset. " john how tall are you ? " I ask " 6"1 " john said " i am short " I thought that's when our food came. I dig in not caring about the people around me not even the attractive john wick. That's when the texture of the steak got to me and i gagged I blushed and took a sip of my drink as both winston and john stared at me. " sorry " I said " you okay ? " winston ask I made eye contact with winston before nodding and look down at my hands and pick at my fingernails. " I know where to put her and away from this life " john said suddenly.
