Guardian Angel
Chapter 5- I am going to stay
«And Aiden never spoke about him? He never mentioned him? »
«Never. I have no idea who that man is. » She rubbed her forehead and looked at the photo in front of her. Aiden was sitting on a bench. He was laughing. He was happy. Right next to him there were three more men. One of them was that man. Sam Trevor.
«How well he knew Aiden? » Nolan took the picture of Emily's hands and sit beside her.
«I didn't really talk to him Nolan. Is there any way it's photoshopped? » She could believe that he was actually part of Aiden's life and she knew nothing about him.
«I checked it twice Ems. It's real. » He threw the photo on the small table and turned his eyes on her. She looked tired. Exhausted.
«Ems you need to sleep»
She turned her eyes on him and let a sad laugh escape her lips.
«Oh yeah because everything is fine and I have the luxury of sleep» She grabbed her coffee mug and walked to the coffee machine.
She woke up feeling strange. A strange feeling was growing inside her. It was like something bad was about to happen. She looked around her and saw Nolan asleep at the other end of the sofa. His legs under her legs and his head buried under pillows. She tried to stand up without waking him up when she heard a loud clang. She didn't lose any time. She dragged Nolan out of his sleeping position and into her office desk.
«What the hell is going on?! »
«Someone is in the house. » She checked her gun, she threw another one to him and walked slowly towards the door.
Stay down She mouthed to her friend.
She walked slowly, checking every room, every corner when suddenly she felt someone grabbing her from behind. The man threw her on the wall and kicked the gun out of her hand. He grabbed her by her neck and slowly slipped his gun out of his jacket. She could feel the air sliping away. She was trying to fight back but the man's grip was too powerful. She felt the cold barrel of the gun touching her forehead and her heart started beating even faster.
«I am sorry beautiful. I am just doing my job »
And there it was. The bang. The shoot.
She felt the man's body collapsing on her and she took a deep breath. She was still alive.
«EMS» She heard Nolan shouting at her from far away. When she finally looked around her she saw him. Sam Trevor was standing right in front of her with a gun in his hand. She looked at him in confusion but she didn't manage to say anything before Nolan rush into the room shouting her name. As soon as he saw the man he stopped and pointed his gun at him.
«Don't move. » He tried to sound strong and fearless.
«I wouldn't dare. » There was a slight irony in the man's voice.
Emily looked between the two man and felt like there was something familiar at this scene. She looked a few more seconds at the black dressed man and then talked.
«Nolan it's ok. He killed him. » She said pointing at the dead body right beside her. «He is Sam Trevor. »
Nolan stayed silent. He kept his gun on the man for a few more seconds and then he slowly put it down.
«Well, now I do believe they knew each other. » He said and walked to Emily's side.
«You doubted that? » Aiden asked turning his eyes on Emily and looking at her surprised.
«I am sorry I doubted the honesty of a man I have never heard before, especially when he claims he was friends with my fiancé. » She broke the eye contact and looked at the dead body beside her. «You need to go Mr. Trevor. As you can see we have some work to do. »
He didn't move. He stayed there looking at the beautiful blonde building walls between them. He had a job to do. He was a guardian angel. He was going to protect her.
«I am sorry Ms. Thorne but I am going to stay here. From what I can see you are in danger and I can't just walk away. You were Aiden's fiancé. I am not walking away of you. Also… now I am involved. I just killed the guy. So I am going to stay. »
So here it is guys. I need your help with something. Now that Aiden is back should i refer to him as Aiden or as Sam (for an example: Aiden said or Sam said?) ? I hope you get what i am asking! So tell me guys what to you think? :)
