A Protected Girl

26

At the restaurant Lucas manage to calm down a bit and continue, "Fester was jealous and my father couldn't see it because he treated him like a brother I even called him Uncle at one point. My real name isn't even Lucas." He said. Cleo was shocked she was shaking, "wha-what's your name?" She asked him. He answered looking down, "Andre."
She fiddles with fingers to help calm down. He puts hand on top of hers. He reassured her, "I'm not going to hurt you I'm not that kind of person. I don't want to kill anybody." She didn't know what to think he lied about so much. Suddenly there was sound of glass that dropped in the kitchen the staff went to the back calmly except the security guard. After that there was gunshots being heard, Lucas grabbed Cleo guarding her he had a gun in his hand.
It was quiet than a rush of men came from the back. Lawerence was in the middle, "I don't need my men to fight you I don't even need a gun." Andre said. Cleo sobs the situation was nothing she could imagine. Fester had a devilish grin and said, "Let the girl go we only came for the girl. Look at her she's terrified." Andre glances at Cleo seeing her face puffy from all the tears, can hear her heavy breathing, and shaking.
Lawerence also glance at Cleo, it hurts them both that the girl they love fear them. "Sophia?" Joseph says. Everybody stares there was Mimi and Sophia on time. Fester grin turns quickly into a frown. Mimi wanted to race over to Cleo but saw the guns drawn. "What the fuck are you doing here?" Fester asked. "Mom you're not suppose to be here!" Lawerence shouts. Everybody stare around each other.
"Are you ok?" Mimi asked Cleo. "Yes I didn't ask for this I'm not in no real trouble." Cleo answers. "You heard that? She's no hostage I'll never ever hurt her! Never I love her." Andre said. Lawerence was ready to shoot. "There's something you need to know my baby boy, you're dad is nothing but a lying manipulative asshole! He has been telling you lies about Logan." Sophia said. Fester shakes his head and said, "Son she had a little crush on him don't mind her go kill him and get that girl." Sophia stood in front of the gun.
"Logan was the nicest man I ever known he never did the things you father claim he did. He never wanted the mafia your father did and he was too nice for his own good sometimes I wish I would've known, was brave and spoke out. Would've stopped your father from meeting Logan stop everything." She says. Lawerence started sweating becoming shaky remembering all the good times.
When Logan came into the picture he just got out of a one year prison sentence and Fester was only a gang leader that was family man like Logan. But Logan was very liked and got everything.
Lawerence drops his gun feeling defeated and guilty. Fester was pissed his gun cocks pointing at Andre. Cleo closes her eyes tight three gun shots. The pressure got into Cleo her ears ringing and she faints.
