                                     "  A glooming peace this morning with it brings;

                                        The sun, for sorrow, will not show his head:

                                         Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things:

                                        Some shall be pardon’d, and some punished:

       

                                            For never was a story of more woe

                                            Than this of Juliet and her Romeo  "


The light got turned off after the last words were spoken and the curtain was down, a few seconds of silence, the audience was not breathing, still trying to work on what just happened.
 The light got turned on again and applause started to break off by the audience as the cast gathered to bow.
 Alex was still amazed from what he just saw, it was incredibly good. He looked at his company to find her whiping away a quiet tear, that she did not even tried to hide. But he could understand her, it was touching, indeed.
 He smiled at her and softly cupped her cheek with his hand and softly whiped the leftovers of tears off her cheek with his thumb which's skin was a little rough because he simply always played his guitars.
 She looked down at his chest, not meeting his eyes but she was not ashamed or emberassed he could feel that.
 They had gotten two seats in a quiet and rather dark booth, that was empty except for them.
 Alex looked at her and softly made her look at his eyes by lifting her chin. Abby was biting her lip, which then turned into a smile towards him. She moved closer, touched his chest with her own and slid her hands to his sides while his other one rested at her lower back, pushing her slightly closer.
 She was close enough so the tip of her nose could touch his. Abby could feel his warmth and his breath that smelled like a unique mix of peppermince, cigarette and something else that she could not yet figure out. She could feel her heartbeat speed up a little as his lips were only milimetres away from hers.
 The audience was still applauding and no one saw them up in their small booth.
 Both had their eyes closed by then and finally their lips were touching, exploring and moving in already perfect sync, tasting and feeling the other. His lips were actually softer than she had expected somehow. Both enjoyed this situation and were a little dissapointed as they had to pull away from each other when the door got opened by a staff member of the theatre, telling them they could get their jakets now.
 Alex simply took her hand to lead her out to the entrance to get their jakets and she just couldn't lie to herself, he was a damn good kisser.

"So you liked it?" "Yes, it was great! Especially how the actors did their job! I mean, I never saw anything comparable!"
 Abby smiled and sipped at her gin "I loved it, it's one of my favourite plays of him. I wanted to see it for ages, but no one was interested. I would have gone alone, but then you happened and I thought you'd be a good theatre-going-hostage"
 "Maybe you should require ransome money for me then" he grinned and drank from his beer. They sat in a bar at the counter and had a drink before deciding how the night should end, or more where.
 She just really managed to make him like her even more. After they had kissed in the theatre they went out into the rain to find a bar or pub where they could continue the evening.
 Something Abby really liked about Alex was, that he wasn't hiding his interest in her from her. He laid his cards open and she did the same, no trying to pretend anything. They were just simply doing what they thought was the best.

Abby felt a hand on her back and immediately tensed, it wasn't Alex, she could feel it, he would not tough her in such a rough way. She turned around and indeed it wasn't the man she had spent the evening with, it was some guy she had never seen, probably drunk, by how he was standing there behind her and looked like she was meat that he was about to eat on his plate.
 "Hey there beautiful" the man, maybe thirty said and she smelled in his breath that he had some vodka too much.
 She kept calm, it mostly only took her some minutes to get such people away again.
 "Leave me! Don't touch me!" she said but the man made no intention to do so.
 "Who would leave a beauty like you alone in a bar, hm..."
 "Shut up an go!" she said sharp and saw how he only grinned wider. "Oh baby-girl, don't try to act like-"
 But she would never know what she was trying to act like because in the next moment Alex was beside the stranger, back from the toilet  and looked like he would ripp out the guys guts if he wouldn't leave.
 "Hey asshole, leave us!" he said pissed and even though he was a little smaller than the stranger, he sensed out a certain kind of authority and strength, which made him only sexier.
 The guy laughed "You want to tell me what to do?! How old are you? Twelve?? And you're her company, I would doubt that" he said and only made more anger inflame on Alex and also Abbys side. She hated guys like that, was it so hard to not try to fuck every woman who's sitting at a bar?!
 "Fuck off" Alex said annoyed and stepped closer, making sure he would not give in to this stupid ass.
 "Come on girl...you can't tell me you want that" he pointed at Alex "Believe me sweetheart, I can fuck you better than he ever could!" the stranger announced and emptied his glass in one sip.
 Alex looked from this  guy to Abby and Alex could see how disgusted she was by the stranger,, but she was in fact pretty curious how Alex would react. She stood cold, emotionless towards this guy. Actually Alex wanted to do the same, stay cool and do nothing stupid, but when this man continued to talk like that and dared to try to touch Abby, all of Alex's good sense was gone.              "Come on, lil' dove, go with me and I'll-" But Abby would never find out what this guy would have said, because in the next moment all she heared and saw was Alex's fist, hitting down on this guys cheek after he had grabed him by the collar and made him back off a little away from Abby.
