"Kaitlyn we haven't seen you in a while." A man said as Kaitlyn sat down at the bar.

"I know Al, I've been really busy."

"Well we've all missed you."

"We? Al you are the only person on the face of the earth that can stand me besides Bella that is." Kaitlyn said as Al handed her a Cherry coke with extra cherries.

"That's not true Katie."

"Please Al I hate it when you call me that it reminds me of my dad." Kaitlyn said leaving the bar and heading over to the pool tables.

She had been playing for about twenty minutes when three jerks entered Al's. They spotted her and decided they could have a little fun. Kaitlyn saw them coming but she wasn't about to be run off by them. She continued her game and ignored the neanderthals as the started conversating with her.

"Hey there lil lady, care if we join ya?" One man asked. He had short dirty blonde hair that looked like it hadn't been washed in years. His teeth were the color of butter and his breath reeked of Alcohol and ciggerettes. The other guys looked like twins. They had long brown hair pulled back in a ponytail and brown eyes. They too smelled of ciggerette smoke and Alcohol.

"Leave me alone."

"Oh come on now. We're just tryin to be friendly." Another man said.

"Look you assholes..."

"Hey all we want to do is have a freindly game of pool with ya." The guy said with a grin.

"They think they can hustle me." Kaitlyn thought. "This could be fun." She said smiling at the guys. "Ok fellas I guess we can play, but i'm not really good I hope that's alright."

"That's fine lil lady. You don't mind if we make a friendly wager do you?"

"You mean bet money?" Kaitlyn was putting on her best dumb little girl act and the guys were eating it up.

"Yeah, but if you really don't want to..."

"No, it's alright. How much?"

"50 bucks."

"That's a alot of money, but if you think it's fair..." Kaitlyn said.

"Great let's play."

Kaitlyn smiled to herself. "This is gonna be too easy." she thought. These guys were pissy drunk and she knew she could kill them. She racked up the balls and looked over at them. "Mind if I break 'em?"

"No go right ahead." They said smiling.

Kaitlyn smiled back. She was really gonna enjoy beating these losers.

Jeff had dropped Elyssa off at home with the nanny. He was meeting some friends for a few drinks. He couldn't believe he was actually early when he pulled into Al's parking lot. He walked in and had a seat at the bar.

"What can I do ya for tonight?"

"Whatever you got on tap is fine." Jeff said. He turned around in time to see Kaitlyn sink her last ball.

"Did I win?" Kaitlyn asked surprised.

"You little bitch, you hustled us." The blonde man yelled.

"Well you win some you lose some I guess." Kaitlyn said picking up the money. She started to walk away when she felt one of the guys pull her back towards them.

"Give us back our money."

"No I won fair and square. Now let go of me."

"Fuck that. You made us believe that you couldn't play."

"I guess I did, sorry fellas."

"You aren't gonna get away with that." One man said as he started pulling Kaitlyn out of Al's.

"What are you doing?"

"We are gonna have a good ole time with you suga. Your sweet ass is gona be sore as hell when we're done."

"Let go of me." Kaitlyn said fighting to get free, but the guys were just to strong for her.

Jeff looked on not saying a word. He just figured that she was rude to these guys just as she had been rude to him and Elyssa earlier that day. He watched as the men dragged her to the door. "She probablly knows them." Jeff thought when Kaitlyn didn't really protest verbally. He simply shrugged it off until her saw the complete look of fright on Kaitlyns face. He continued to watch as the men pulled Kaitlyn towards their car. No one even flinched when she finally screamed, but that's when Jeff knew that Kaitlyn was in fact being taken away against her will. He stood from the barstool he was sitting at and followed the last of the drunken losers outside.

Kaitlyn was scared, but she wasn't about to cry in front of these guys. She closed her eyes and let the men pull her out to the parking lot. She was being shoved into the car when she heard one of the men cry out in pain. She opened her eyes just in time to see the third guy hit the ground.

"Are you ok?"

She looked up to see Jeff standing over her.

"Yeah...fine." Kaitlyn answered.

"Come on I'll drive ya home." He said helping Kaitlyn to her feet.

"I have my car."

"Well lock it up and come back for it tomorrow, you're shaking so bad you'd never even make it out of the parking lot." Jeff said as he walked Kaitlyn to his car and opened the passenger side door for her.

"Look i'm fine I can drive my own damn car home so just buzz off already." Kaitlyn said breaking free of Jeff's grip on her arm.

"Look Kaitlyn I'm not gonna just leave you here all shook up like this."

"How do you know my name?"

We met today at Karoli's Kids. You kinda crushed my little's sisters hopes and dreams."

"Right. Elyssa and John?"

"Jeff." He corrected.

"Right. Look Jeff like I said i'm fine I can manage my own way home."

"Your hands are still shaking, and you shouldn't be driving. Please just let me drive you home it'll make me feel better."

"Fine. Such a gentleman your mother must be so proud." Kaitlyn said reluctantly getting in the car.

"Where do you live?" Jeff asked ignoring her sarcastic banter.

"Starmount Hills."

"Really? Those are some pretty impresive houses."

"The place is nuthin special just enough space for me and Kona."

So she has a boyfriend. Jeff thought to himself. Of cousrse she did why wouldn't she? She was beautiful any guy would be lucky to have her. Her attitude needed some work but hey so did his at times.

"So you're a pool shark?" Jeff asked just to have something to say.

"Yeah i'm a common lil hustler." Kaitlyn smiled proudly.

"Your mother must be so proud." Jeff said mocking her from earlier.

Jeff looked over and Kaitlyn was yawning. She had yawned a couple of times since getting in the car now that Jeff thought about it. "You must be exhausted." Jeff said looking over at her.

"Just a little." She said yawning once again. "You didn't have to help me back there, but thank you for doing so." Kaitlyn said lying her head on the window. Before Jeff could say 'You're Welcome' Kaitlyn was fast asleep.
