"Let's not fall in love"

Chapter 1 - Accident

~•~•~ Neo's POV ~•~•~

An ordinary night again on the club, after my performance I was ordered by the manager to entertain one of the club's VIP guest. I can't help but sigh as I drag my feet to one of the clubs private rooms.

I hate this!

Stripping just takes guts because you have to dance naked in front of a lot of people but entertain in a private room was the one that I hated the most. Most customers get touchy and some even asked for sex, which of course we are not allowed to decline.

I've wanted to quit this job a few months after my mother died but they won't let me. I have plans to escape and I'm just waiting for the right opportunity.

Maybe I should do it now.

Instead of entering the private room I walked straight to the kitchen back door. When I walked out of the door I ran as fast as I can. Since it's 3 am there is literally no cars on the road. I have no hope of finding a taxi at this hour but I need to get far away from this place as soon as possible.

I should go to Bangkok, it's a big city, maybe they won't find me there. I can start a new life and finally be free.

While running, I saw a car fast approaching the other side of the road. I ran towards it shouting and waving my hand for it to stop.

Shit! Why isn't it slowing down?

~•~•~ Pete's POV ~•~•~

It's almost 3 am and I've been driving for more than an hour now. I need to go to Ratchaburi to pick up my drunk friend Noh.
While I'm on my way, he won't stop calling me, this is the 3rd time now.

I answered my phone.
"Noh, I'm almost there just wait a bit ok." I said and drop the call so I can focus on my driving.

I grab the cup of coffee that I bought on a 24hrs cafe along the way. The cup slip my hand and hot coffee spilled on my pants, I quickly tried to get a box of tissue. I took my eyes off the road for only a few seconds and when I looked back, I was about to hit a guy standing in the middle of the road. I quickly stepped on the breaks but I think I still hit him.

I quickly got out and ran to the front of my car. I saw the guy lying unconscious on the ground.

Ohh no! Is he dead?

My hands are shaking when I tried to check if he's still alive. When I saw him still breathing, I quickly grab his arms and drag him inside my car. Maybe it was adrenaline how I was able to put a big muscular guy at the back seat of my car.

I quickly turned my car around to take him to the nearest hospital. I was startled when he suddenly grabs my shoulder that I instinctively stepped on the breaks.

I looked back and he fell on the car floor. I think I added more to his injury. I was relieved when I saw him slowly moving his body back up to the seat.

"Are you okay?" I asked hesitantly

When he lifts his face to look at me, I saw the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen in my life. I can almost get lost in them... My daze was suddenly broken when he spoke.
