Chapter 4 4

"are you hurt," Jake said running up to the stage he checked my body for any signs of an injury but I wasn't hurt. Yes, maybe the men did grab me quite roughly but I wasn't shot.

"no, I'm fine, what about everyone, did she shoot anyone?" I said checking around the room. Luckily for all of us, nobody was shot but there was a bullet lodged in the glass wall right beside me on the stage.

Was she aiming for me?

"no, her aim was dodgy everyone got down quick enough and then the police guards attacked her before she got a better aim" I know what he was saying but I didn't save these people.

My idiotic self was too busy staring at a guy that I didn't notice it earlier.

Jake finally got me off the stage since I was in shock. I told him I would be fine but it wasn't his choice to take me over to the police. They asked for me to talk to them.

They were speaking to nick at that moment. When they saw me approaching, they all stopped and nick excused himself walking past me. He didn't forget to brush his arm with mine.

He knows he's fucking sexy and that's a major turn on. Guys seem to be getting shyer these days feeling insecure and stuff.

"oh darling, you angel" I heard a familiar voice say. I instantly recognised Andy a friend of my dad he was a police officer head of the department. He wrapped his arms around me.

"I'll take this one boys, continue and question others until you've got something" he didn't leave time for them to answer as he dragged me over to a table.

I sat down carefully and sighed with relief. Not the kind of night I was expecting.

"Andy what happened tonight who was that woman," I asked him hoping they were able to get some answers.

He watched for people listening in, obviously, every bit of information they have right now is of top importance to the police.

"she is the wife of a man we've been watching for over a year now. Its highly confidential but he has some links to a terrorism plot. Have you ever seen her in your life"?

Wait a minute

Terrorism, wow I didn't expect this at all I was thinking she was just angry at us and was crazy. Andy has never been good at keeping things confidential. If its not him telling me its Hannah at the office giving us the details.

"no never in my life, I've seen the photos already going around I know I look shocked but it's not because I know her its because she was in here with a fucking gun" I hope he can sense my irritation for him to even assume I am linked to this in some sort of way.

He grabbed my wrist. "calm down angel, I'm not accusing you but I have to be able to rule you out of case okay" I guess he is right. The quicker I'm removed the better my life will be.

"did you see her come in, why were you staring that way in the first place." Funny you should ask then Andy.

"well"

Andy was clearly enjoying this he already knows my answer.

"well, your angel was staring at my home boy that's what," an unfamiliar voice said. We both turned and saw a guy sitting with his feet perched up on the table.

Rats

"yes, I was looking in that direction, but I started staring when I saw her approaching alright. Is that all can I go home now" okay now I was irritated.

Home seemed to be the best thing right now.

Andy wrapped up his questioning and let me leave. The guy who I recognise as James from Instagram decided to follow me.

"what now," I say when he followed me towards my driver.

"oh nothing, just admiring the view" brilliant what a perv. If nick is anything like this guy I won't even bother.

"James leave her" oh speak of the devil. Handsome devil.

James could only pout but he did leave me alone. I didn't want to get involved anymore, all I wanted was to head home and enjoy a glass of wine to end my dreadful night.

My driver didn't waste time in taking me home he played music to fill up the silence and let me rest my head.

When I felt the familiar turns leading up to my studio I woke up and got ready to leave the car. Before I got out, he called out to me.

"I'm glad you're okay Selene, you can be a pain but I love watching you grow and becoming the woman they, everyone thought you would never be." Okay, that was probably the cringiest yet cutest thing he has ever said to me.

"I love you too benny boyo" I leant to his window and kissed him on the cheek. "give my love to the girls will you" those sweet kids.

He nodded before driving out of my driveway and into the night.

Now, where's that drink?
