This is the first fanfiction that I have published, so I apologise if isn't that great. Aby x

Michelle had just locked the doors to The Rovers, when the sheer force of the door knocked her to the floor.

'Arghh' Michelle screamed as she saw two large men stood over her.

The two thugs ran round the bar and tried to take the money from the till but it had just been emptied by Steve who had left the room before the break in.

'Where's the money?!' One of the thugs shouted.

'It's gone, so you might as well leave!' Michelle shouted.

The bigger thug walked over to Michelle and picked her up of the ground and held her up against the wall. Holding his arm up against her neck cutting of her breathing. She tried to shout for Steve, but her voice wouldn't leave her body.

'Unless you tell me where the money is, you will not be let go' the thug said with his gritty voice

'I've told you, we've taken it to be counted in the back room'

The thug let go of Michelle and she fell to a heap on the ground. Knowing that there is nothing that she could do, she shouted for Steve. He came from the back room to be faced with the men.

'Who the hell are you?' Steve shouted

'Steve th…they want the m..money' Michelle moaned from the floor

'Give us the money and we will leave' said the smaller man

'YOU'RE NOT GETTING THE MONEY SO YOU MIGHT AS WELL LEAVE!' Steve screamed in the face of the thugs

'We are getting the mo…' The man started

'I've told you! You are not getting the money. So get out of my pub or I will phone the police!

'Come on Jack we might as well leave, there's no getting through to him.' The men started to back off.

As the men left the pub, Steve ran over to a victimised Michelle, who was still lay in a heap on the ground. Steve picked her up and let her cuddle into his chest.

'Are you okay Chelle?'

'Yea Steve…I'm fine'

'You don't look it; we need to get you to the hosp...'

'No, Steve I'm fine. Please…let me just lie here' Michelle interrupted Steve

'Yea…sure. Just rest'

After a few minutes Michelle had drifted to sleep, shortly followed by Steve. They remained on the floor together for the night.
