CHAPTER FIVE
"Where were you?"
Jackson looks to Allison, He has a third drink in hand.
"With 'Kid'"
" 'Kid' arrive an hour ago!" Allison very angrily said, knows he is lying.
"Okay, okay , I was fixing some personal business"
"Personal issues?" she said unconvincingly and angry get away from him.
He quickly drinks his whiskey and immediately goes after her.
"Allison! Please do not be mad, okay? I'm here" He takes her face in his hands forcing to see him. She looks into his blue eyes and say in a calm …
"Do not do this again Jackson, I remember the fear I felt when they told me what happened to you in your last job"
Jackson looks while she is close to kiss him. Jackson accepts the kiss.
At home, getting ready for the break, Lisa is desperate because her mind thinks in Jackson and in his gaze, in those hypnotic blue eyes and in their wish to want talk with her "What for? What does he want ?" that's what she does not understand. She knows that the look he saw during the trial, was by revenge, certainly. But What kind of revenge wants, with just talk? Maybe it's a sham as the last time so it's better be on guard and don't do anything with him.
In the morning at the hotel, Lisa are surprise again by Alex who greets her cheerful.
"Hi Lisa!"
"Hello Alex"
"I have something to share with you (He says cheerily)"
"What?" Lisa says interested
"It's my job, I have a better work to do and I like me more! (He obviously happy) "
"Oh, good, its great." Lisa says smiling
"And ... I would like to invite you to dinner to celebrate, but unfortunately I can not, I have to start working in a political event (He said with a momentary sadness)"
"Ah, no problem could be on another day, enjoy your work as much as I" Lisa says.
"Okay, thanks for the advice (laughs), well I'll see you tomorrow, I'll be thinking with you" Alex ends with a lovely smile.
"Okay, Good Bye" Lisa tells, he just smiles.
She is thinking about the reactions of Alex, the attraction for her is obvious, it's a shame that the feelings are not mutual, well maybe a Little, although not in the form in which he does Jackson and she hates recognize. Lisa considers Alex apart to Cynthia, as a true friend.
In short, the day went normal, customers, work, everybody was fine.
In the evening at ten o'clock, Lisa leaves the Lux to head home, indeed the breeze in the warmer months of Miami is pleasant in comparison to the air artificial conditioning of the Hotel, so she decided to go walking to relax and escape from the 'routine' that is what her moves. On the way, his mind thinks at all, and although the reason for the hike was to the contrary, cannot remedy. His father, Cynthia and now Jackson and Alex were part of their small 'big' world.
Usually at this hour, are the streets deserted and solitary, as its Lisa. Until she realizes that two men are walking behind her at a considerable distance. Quietly she begins to walk faster for getting away. Subjects then begin to pursue her, Lisa terrified starts to run until a third guy comes out of an alley for stopping her, fortunately escaped from him. She stayed close the limits of the wall, while men cornered her and they began to verbally attack.
She in fear, starts screaming for them go away but logically they don´t pay attention. A man of them was about to grab her when an unknown man stops him and beat him hard in the face, the other two against man 'mysterious'.
Lisa is completely soaked in tears and in shock, the man approached her ...
"Lisa, are you okay?" His protector is Jackson, She continues in shock.
"Come with me" He said as he takes her arm gently and delicately.
Suddenly the first man gets up quickly, he has a knife and achieved cut to Jackson on his shoulder, Jackson stayed close to Lisa while fight with that stupid man.
He hits very strong this man on his face, Jackson through an amazing right hook, knocks him. Until the man drops the knife and falls on the floor defeated.
Obviously, He knows how to control these situations especially for being a man experienced in such situations.
Then come back where Lisa , She paralyzed, Jackson took Lisa to go to his car, then Lisa wake up of his 'Shock' and begins weakly to hit in the chest Jackson.
He takes her face with his hands daintily, He said …
"Lisa, I am a Jackson, calm down"
"What are you doing here? What do you want some? You come to finish your work? " Lisa tells him, thinking that he is for complete the pain of her.
"I told you I will not hurt you and I intend taking you to go home after what happened, Come with me " He tells very reliable.
Lisa saw the blue eyes of him and without saying anything even protest, he let her take to his car, remembering that he was nevertheless, the man who rescued her of those damn that wanted hurt her.
Once in the car she stays silent, somehow knows that it is safer stay with him that outside under the circumstances.
All the way she was unquiet and with tears in his eyes, is logical that what happened reminded that she suffered in a parking lot, time ago. Jackson only saw her, He assumes that she thought in horrible past times after seeing her even weeping, respects his pain he would not say anything. Upon arriving home, she asks him puzzled:
"How do you know where I live?" she never mentioned the way home.
"GPS" Jackson says something unsafe, Lisa looks him suspicious and out of the car.
Once outside, Lisa knows necessarily that must thank him for what he did. Jackson was standing in front of her, looking her in the green eyes, after a few seconds Jackson hear a small whisper of Lisa's lips that say "Thanks", For the time, he conforms with that, and draws a smile, For Lisa that sees him.
"I'm going, take care" He tells while he goes toward to the car.
He was about to leave when Lisa realizes that his shoulder of him is bleeding and in his jacket has a scratch along with a blood stain.
"Are you wounded?" She asks from the doorway of his home. Jackson sees his shoulder and look that is bleeding, addition of a little cutting of the jacket sleeve.
"Yes, but it's nothing, just a little cut, well, goodbye" He tells her, she is left wondering and before of that him getting in the car, she yells ...
"Jackson!" He stops and looks her into the eyes.
"I want to repay you what you did, you let me bandage your shoulder?"
"And would accept to talk to me?" He boldly says.
"No!, And how did you know who I was in danger?" Lisa asked. Himself thinking in what tells Lisa, is obvious that is following her but cannot admit, take their plans to the brink of defeat for the second time and he was not going to allow.
"I do not know, just going in my car on that street until, I see you running very fast and then I see them men chasing you then, I go for you, is all" Jackson says, Lisa is not convinced.
"So ... you want the bandage on your shoulder or not?" Lisa tells.
"Okay," Jackson accepts. Necessarily have enter that into the house, It would be that very uncomfortable bandage him out of the house.
Jackson again insists to Lisa about his 'date', before enter to the house.
"You agree to talk to me"
"Then we'll see." She tells.
He sits on the couch in her small room while she goes for his first aid kit. Upon reaching him, she shudders to realize that Jackson necessarily has to take off his jacket and shirt for the bandage, had not thought of that detail.
He only looks forward his instructions, Lisa forced to tell him:
"Take off your jacket." Jackson obeys and takes it away leaving only the shirt, He enjoys, forcing stop a laughing, Lisa knows that it costs say to him.
Lisa sees him indifferent and says:
"The shirt also." He, almost provocative, slowly unbutton his shirt, and takes it off revealing his bare chest. Almost shamelessly, for succumbing to the obvious wishes of Lisa, wanting to see reaction from her.
Lisa gives him a look but then focuses directly on the wound avoiding any distraction from it while feeling his gaze on her and that's what makes more nervous. Jackson wanted to relax her, and make her feel confident with him, his blue eyes causing a strange feeling in her, but charmingly irresistible to herself.
At the finish, Lisa puts the accessories in the first aid kit while Jackson put on his shirt. At go out, Jackson again emphasizes his 'date' with her.
"Do you accept?"
Lisa frankly has already tired of his insistence until finally tells:
"Yes"
Happy He says:
"Okay, thank you"
Lisa stunned for what she accepted and just say:
"Where?"
"Tomorrow I'll pick you up when you finish working, I don't know yet, maybe in a restaurant or bar. Will be in a public place."
Lisa looks at him, having no more to say, Jackson is going to his car, before boarding the BMW, sees her and with a charming smile, leaves. She stares at him.
She stayed thinking in accepted. Any person will say she is crazy to have accepted this invitation of him. The man who had intended to kill her. But the course has moved, the situation is different, he has proven be someone else different from what was initially, and honestly is more enjoyable as well, but will be better do nothing, for not regret later.
