"Insurance?" The card dealer asks the table.
Your cards were already horrible. Four of hearts and a six of diamonds, only making ten. You had two five-hundred dollar chips out, so you put out another five-hundred to the insurance line.
Maybe this could work. You sighed and closed your eyes. The dealer started to flip the other card. You could feel the tension, people sweating, crossing their fingers and praying to God that the card was a ten.
"Blackjack!" The dealer yelled. You opened your eyes and shouted with everyone else as the dealer passed your matte black five-hundred dollar chips to you. You ran your fingers against the rims of them, a smile plastered across your face.
A few hours pasted, you were pretty good at this game. Won almost two-thousand dollars, due to your luck. You felt a hand form around your arm and pull you.
"Hey! What are you doing!?" You turned your head and saw it was your best friend Hobi.
"Y/N, there's shit going on right now!" He pulled.
You heard a big "pop" and people screaming. You crouched behind the blackjack table and pulled him down with you, everyone following. There was screaming and people rushing to the exit.
You sigh. This always happens at this stupid casino. Dumb drunks never getting what they want in a game of roulette.
"Stay here, Hobi. I got this." You mumbled to him. He nodded his head. You quietly stumbled through the crowds of people crouched on the floor. Your badge and gun turning shades of yellow and blue due to the reflection the fancy lights on various slot machines. You crouched down behind a poker table, peeking over the side to see the man.
The man was obviously drunk, he held a gun up to everyone around the roulette squares demanding them to let him "win". You waited for him to turn and point the gun at someone else.
"And you!" He screamed, pointing the gun at a younger blonde lady. He waved it around and pressed the barrel against her forehead. Tears ran down her cheeks, scared for her life.
Now's the time. You ran up to him, adrenaline pumping through your body. He turned around, pointing the gun right at your face.
Too late.
You hit him in the head with your own gun, the steel impact leaving a gash on his head.
"Why you little bitch!" He yelled, tackling you onto the ground. You struggled to push him off. He pinned you down and punched your face over and over. The pain of your nose cartilage cracking, your left eye stinging and starting to shut into a puffy purple mess, and the warm feeling of metallic blood entering your swollen mouth only gave you more motivation to protect the others around you. You thought of what to do next, when it hit you.
You struggled your leg out the man's heavy body, and kneed him in his crotch. He yelped, giving you enough time to unbuckle the taser out of your utility belt. You pointed and shot it on his side, the hooks grasping on to his skin. Pressing the button, you saw his body moving in a small vibrations. He was on the ground, giving you time to handcuff this idiot. You stood up wipping your bloody and most likely broken nose.
"Y/N, Y/N!!" You heard Hobi yelling as he ran towards you. He grabbed your face, his soft hands against your cheeks, "What the heck did he do to you?"
You pushed his hands off your face, "it's nothing I can't handle." You insured him. It really wasn't though, you've been shot in the shoulder before and once in your chest. The bullet barely missing your heart. Police work is very dangerous, but the risk is something you enjoy.
"Here, let's get your money and get you home, I think you had enough of the casino tonight.." he uttered. You nodded your head.
Once the other cops showed up to take the man away, Hobi and you got your chips and cashed them out for actual dollars. The cops escorted everyone out of the building and thanked you for your brave actions. You awkwardly smiled, I mean what else were you going to do? Sit around with a badge on, hiding your pride and dignity, scared just like everyone else?
You're no longer be that type of person.
But that'd also get you fired anyways.
Hobi escorted you out to your car.
"Are you sure you're gonna be okay, Y/N?"
"Of course, Hobi, why wouldn't I?" You ask him. He shakes his head.
"For one your nose looks hella broken."
"Ah, I forgot." You touch your nose, a quick pain jolts through your body. "I'll get that checked out tomorrow."
"No, please get it checked out tonight!" Hobi tugs at your arm.
"Ehhh," you mutter. A pout spread across his face, forcing you to give in into his concern. "Okay, okay. I'll go to the hospital tonight, Hobi."
He jumps up and smiles, "Yay! Thank you!" His arms wrapped against your body, giving you a hug. You hug him back, indulging in his sweet scent. Whatever cologne he uses, you loved it. It was always so sweet, like cinnamon, strawberries, and lots of sugar. But it also had a twist, an almost deeper smell that you couldn't explain. It was mysterious. Matched his cute personality either way.
"I got to get back inside and clean now. See ya later!" Hobi told you, looking at his watch.
He sure did work at that casino, but for reasons he never looked like the average scrawny adult you'd find there. Infact, plenty of girls would find it cute flirt with him. He just had the perfect smile, his teeth a pearl white, his hair a deep brown, and his eyes matching his eyes. You found him attractive, but so did every other girl.
You watched the brunette walk down the parking lot back inside the building. You smirked and got into your car, driving to the nearest hospital.
I apologize if this chapter is really short, it's really late and I need sleep. I also apologize if anything doesn't make sense or I am not correct grammatically or just spelling. Again it's really late and my brain doesn't like to function! Tonight my family was playing blackjack (with candy) and my dad was explaining something's to us, it inspired me to write this story! I really wanted to write some type of someone x Y/N story so here it is! Hope you likey ✨💜
