Charlie's

Chapter 23

BPOV

For the next few hours after Edward let it was quite busy, although I was rushed off my feet, I still found time to worry about him, and knowing he was with Black had me on edge, I didn't like this fucking feeling at all.

So as the time past I was surprised to see him standing behind the bar helping himself to a bottle of jack, he did put money next to the till, but that's not the point, I didn't even see the fucker come through the door and he didn't look to happy when I managed to catch his eye.

"Office when your done" It wasn't a question, it was a demand and I was gonna argue with him, but the look he gave not suggested not to, so I just nodded and chucked him the keys I had in my pocket and watched him walk away with his bottle one hand and a glass in the other, he looked like he was walking with a purpose, I watched as people side-stepped him and give him a wide berth, be he didn't even notice, I suppose that happens on a daily basis.

About an hour later, it was starting to die down out here, It was coming on 12am now, and I hadn't seen or heard from him since he went in there. I really wanted to go in there and check to see if he was going through my shit, but there was only 2 or 3 people left, 2 of those we getting ready to go.

"Move on out peeps or you're get locked in" I said as I made my way around the bar to grab some empties left on the tables, I needed to think about getting some fucking bins out on the floor to put their bloody bottles in save me doing it. I put the glasses on the bar and as the last walked out the door and said "Alright girls get your shit and head on out, I'll finish the rest"

"You sure Bella, I don't mind helping" Angela says.

"Don't worry about it chick, I owe you for last night" I didn't have to say it twice, both girls made their way out back to get their jackets , I waited for them to leave and locked the door, I didn't need anyone else coming in. I turned the lights down low and grabbed the glasses off the bar ad placed them in the dishwasher, I'd turn that on tomorrow.

I turned round to see him leaning on the bar, with his head cocked to the side watching me. He's like a fucking ninja, I'll have to put a bloody bell on him.

"Trying to give me a fucking heart attack?" I gasped out in surprise.

"well I was waiting for you to come to me, but I got bored, there's only so much I can do on my own" He said with a smirk.

"What did you do?" I asked him a sigh, I couldn't be bothered with this shit now.

He laughed at me and said "I didn't do nothing, I was making a few phone calls...on my own phone before you say anything"

"Well that sounds exciting" I said with a yawn.

"Tired huh?" He asked me.

"I'm completely shagged" I said putting my hand over my mouth.

"Well too bad you can't go bed get , I wanna talk to you about something" He had my attention, his tone was serious.

"Oh yeah, and what's that?" I asked as I sat on the stool behind the bar, that happened to be opposite him.

"You wanna get a drink first?" He asked.

"Na. can't be bothered to get back up" I said with another yawn, Jesus Christ I was nackered, I hadn't really done much today, maybe it's the emotional stress from earlier that's worn me out.

"I'll get you a drink what do you want?" He asked as he made with way round my side of the bar.

"Just get a bottle of Vodka and a glass..please" See I can be polite, Guess he didn't think so, cos he stopped mid stride a stared at me with wide eyes as a slow smirk made its way to his beautiful lips. "Oh fuck off I can say please" I huffed out and rolled my eyes.
